CHEYENNE — The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality has cited Sinclair Refinery for a spill that released nearly 3 million gallons of potentially explosive fluid last spring.
Sinclair failed to take steps to prevent the May 3 spill — one of the biggest in Wyoming history — by fixing leakage at the tank where the spill originated, the department said in the Dec. 30 violation notice.
Meanwhile, a top regulator expressed continuing frustration Monday that Sinclair has not given state inspectors access to the inside of the tank at the refinery near Rawlins.
