BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — A second large oil spill (click here) into Montana's Yellowstone River in less than four years is reviving questions about oversight of the nation's aging pipeline network.
Investigators and company officials on Wednesday were trying to determine the cause of the 40,000-gallon spill that contaminated downstream water supplies in the city of Glendive.
Sen. Jon Tester said Saturday's spill from the decades-old Poplar Pipeline was avoidable, but "we just didn't have the folks on the ground" to prevent it....

Senator Tester can task the "The Prince William Sound Oil Spill Recovery Institute to mentor and/or conduct the removal of the oil within icey waters.

Senator Tester can be a real hero and act to save the land and water from complete disaster.
