Plains All American Pipeline LP and its subsidiaries have reported 223 accidents along their lines since 2006. Those accidents resulted in a combined 864,300 gallons of spilled hazardous liquids, damages topping $32 million and 25 enforcement actions by federal regulators. The company and its affiliates have had the fifth highest number of significant pipeline accidents among all of the nation’s pipeline operators since 2006. It is not whether the pipeline is safe when it is built, but, more specifically, how safe it is over the decades that it is in the ground pumping oil. This company does not have a good track record. This pipeline will begin in Cushing Oklahoma and will run through the entire state of Arkansas and through the Mississippi River to Memphis Tennessee.
