[QUOTE="Trip McNeely, post: 34240, member: 728"] All of those spills occurred on tributaries or in upstream areas where containment was a lot more feasible. From my understanding this pipe would cut across the heart of the big lake. I'm not a hydrologist or an oil tycoon but I would think containment and clean-up would be quite a bit tougher in areas with deeper water. . . . . How long did the crestwood? pipeline leak? were they not equipped with the latest sensors? A spill over dry land or on a small tributary would be a lot easier to detect sooner even with the failure of the many safeguards put in place. I guess my point is I realize that the majority of pipelines in ND are incredibly safe, but are we willing to hedge our water and a ginormous source of revenue and Nodakers recreational opportunity without first asking a ton of questions? Do you think the people around Devils lake would be willing to lay an oil pipe-line across the bottom of D.L.? [/QUOTE]
