albertskarsten on 26 Jan 17Work crews are cleaning up a spill of nearly 140,000 gallons of a diesel mix from a broken pipeline in north-central Iowa. The Mason City Globe Gazette reports that the leak from a 12-inch Magellan Midstream Partners pipe was discovered around 8 a.m. Wednesday north of Hanlontown. Another pipeline breach sends 140,000 gallons into the ecosystem of north-central Iowa. These breaches are all to common and the consequences are extremely high for a resource that in my opinion will be obsolete within the next 50yrs. Why are we still using it?
