Sand Spill: Exxon off hook as US law says no 'oil' contamination in Arkansas

  • 11 years ago
The central Arkansas spill caused by Exxon's aging Pegasus pipeline has reportedly unleashed 10,000 barrels of Canadian heavy crude - but a technicality says it's not oil, letting the energy giant off the hook from paying into a national cleanup fund.

Chris Harrell - whose home was affected by the Pegasus pipeline spill - told RT that some people didn't even know the pipeline existed.
