The entire Missour/Mississippi drainages are at risk from this black snake piercing the land and waters from North Dakota to New Orleans.  The oil is destined for foreign markets since the U.S. is awash with oil as reflected even in the manipulated pricing market.  The federal government and all state governments are responsible for allowing this threat to Middle American lives.  The permitting systems are so rigged for developers as to push aside any dissent; most of it occurring it out of sight of the public.  The Army Corps of Engineers has been complicit throughout the nation in its appeasement of every Oil Monopoly threat to land and water.  They have failed in their stewardship.  A national map of oil, liquid gas, natural gas pipelines reveals the extent to which the Oil Monopoly has hijacked massive areas.  Spills and explosions have occurred throughout the nation.  The emergency plans are paper only as revealed in the EXXON-VALDEZ, none of them will work.  All for Greed.
