BILLINGS, Mont., July 9 (UPI) -- Officials in Montana accused Exxon Mobil Corp. of overselling optimism in press reports concerning the July 1 oil spill in the Yellowstone River.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on Friday gave Exxon two months to clean up the spill, which came from a ruptured pipeline -- a pipe officials warned Exxon about a year ago, The Wall Street Journal reported Saturday.
