Additional information aboutCrude Oil Spill Response Package

Multiple incidents of explosive accidents have prompted the U.S. Department of Transportation to issue a safety alert warning the public, emergency responders and shippers about the potential high volatility of the crude oil coming from the Bakken oil shale patch in Montana and North Dakota. According to the agency, the crude, which is shipped by rail across the U.S. and Canada, could be more flammable than traditional crude oil. 

Industry experts say the dangers of crude have long been under-appreciated and need to be communicated to the hundreds of counties and cities that have seen a surge in crude oil trains in their communities.
