Breached pipeline exposed

Last Monday a pipeline broke in the yellow stone river spilling 50,000 gallons of oil into the river. through out the investigations into the cause of spill it was found that part of the pipeline was exposed less than 50 feet from the break in the pipe. this is a big problem because according to pipeline regulations those pipes are suppose to be at least 4 feet below the ground.
