The 'other' spill BP will be keeping quiet
8226:
With the Gulf Coast dying of oil poisoning, there’s no space in the press for British Petroleum’s most recent spill.
Just last week over 100,000 gallons were lost at its Alaska pipeline operation. A hundred thousand used to be a lot. It still is.
Last Tuesday, Pump Station 9, at Delta Junction on the 800-mile pipeline, busted. Thousands of barrels began spewing an explosive cocktail of hydrocarbons after “procedures weren’t properly implemented” by BP operators, say state inspectors.
