Oil Slick Stuff

Some aerial shots of the Arkansas pipeline leak

I'm just trying to show factual updated data-

*caution- there are some anti-pipeline comments on this video.


FAA says to keep your biased reporting the hell away from the area....


FAA Implements Flight Restrictions Over Mayflower Oil Spill. KARK-TV Little Rock, AR (4/4) briefly notes that the FAA "has placed flight restrictions on the airspace over the Mayflower oil spill," stipulating that no pilots can operate "any aircraft over the area listing 'Hazards' as the type of restriction." The notice was issued Monday afternoon and is still in effect.
For its part, KTHV-TV Little Rock, AR (4/4) reports online that "according to the FAA's website, the Mayflower region is instructed to have 'no pilots operate an aircraft' below 1,000 feet above the ground." The article notes that "an ExxonMobil pipeline ruptured in Mayflower late Friday afternoon, sending oil flowing through the area and evacuating 22 homes." http://dot.bulletinnews.com/
 


Oklahoma Grandmother Locks Herself to Keystone XL Heavy Machinery — Halts Construction


ALLEN, OK – Tuesday, April 9, 2013, 9:00 AM – Oklahoma grandmother Nancy Zorn, 79, from Warr Acres, has locked herself to a piece of heavy machinery effectively halting construction on TransCanada’s Keystone XL toxic tar sands pipeline. This action comes in the wake of the disastrous tar sands pipeline spill in Mayflower Arkansas, where an estimated 80,000 gallons of tar sands spilled into a residential neighborhood and local waterways.

Using a bike-lock Zorn has attached her neck directly to a massive earth-mover, known as an excavator, which has brought construction of Keystone XL to a stop. Zorn is the second Oklahoma grandmother this year risking arrest to stop construction of the pipeline, and her protest is the third in a series of ongoing civil disobedience actions led by the Oklahoma-based coalition of organizations, Great Plains Tar Sands Resistance.

“Right now our neighbors in Arkansas are feeling the toxic affect of tar sands on their community. Will Oklahoma neighborhoods be next?” asked Zorn before taking action today. “I can no longer sit by idly while toxic tar sands are pumped down from Canada and into our communities. It is time to rise up and defend our home. It is my hope that this one small action today will inspire many to protect this land and our water.”
