Pipeline Company Charged

摘要

An Ohio-based company that transports crude oil, petro-leum products, and natural gas via underground pipelines is looking at a penalty of more than $1 million for allegedly violating Department of Transportation (DOT) safety regu-lations at the St. James Terminal in Vacherie, Louisiana.rnIn March 2009, one welder was killed and three other work-ers were injured at the terminal when hazardous vapors in a crude oil sump ignited during maintenance.
