HELENA, Mont. — Federal safety regulators disclosed problems Tuesday with oil and other hazardous-liquid pipelines at seven major river crossings and hundreds of smaller crossings in Montana and northern Wyoming — problems that could put the lines at increased risk of failure.
Problems found at the major river crossings must be fixed by spring or the companies that own the pipelines will face enforcement actions, said Chris Hoidal of the U.S. Department of Transportation. That includes pipelines crossing the Missouri, Musselshell, Gallatin, Tongue and other rivers.
