Oct. 31 (UPI) -- The Keystone pipeline sprung a leak, spilling about 383,000 gallons of crude oil in North Dakota, covering an estimate half-acre of wetland.
The spill, which has been contained, occurred less than 50 miles from the Canadian border, and with no residences near the site, it is not a drinking water source, said Karl Rockeman, director of the North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality's division of water quality.
