BISMARCK, N.D. – Federal regulators say they plan to fine the operator of the Dakota Access Pipeline $93,200 over pipeline safety violations.
The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration say the violations pertain to physical aspects of the pipeline and monitoring systems. There is no indication any of the violations have resulted in oil leakage.
Some of the violations cited by the agency include improper placement of valves for storm water drainage on tanks at six facilities in western North Dakota.
