Proposed pipeline would connect to Dakota Access
WILLISTON, N.D. — A company under investigation for the largest pipeline spill in North Dakota history proposes to build a 3.2-mile oil pipeline to connect with Dakota Access.
Epping Transmission Co., a subsidiary of Summit Midstream Partners that continues to clean up after nearly 3 million gallons of produced water leaked in 2015, got support Tuesday, Nov. 22, from a labor union that previously was critical of the company.
A representative of the Laborers' International Union of North America testified during a Public Service Commission hearing that he supports the latest project from Summit Midstream because the company has adopted a new policy for selecting responsible contractors.
"They are taking a step in the right direction in our eyes," said Evan Whiteford, who criticized the company the last time it was before the commission. "And we look forward to this project being a success."
