On October 21, an 8-inch Sunoco pipeline ruptured in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, spilling about 55,000 gallons of gasoline into the Susquehanna River

from dec 2nd


On December 2, equipment failure in a Denbury Resources source water pipeline led to a leak of approximately 84,000 gallons of source water into Skull Creek, in Bowman County, North Dakota



On December 5, a 6-inch Belle Fourche pipeline spilled 176,000 gallons of crude oil into Ash Coulee Creek in Billings County, North Dakota


It Happens all the time,

2017
On January 14, the Ozark Pipeline, an Enbridge division, spilled about 15,330 gallons of light oil at the Lawrence Pump Station, near Halltown, Missouri

On January 20 , 200,000-litre spill on Ocean Man First Nation territory Saskatchewan


On January 25, the Magellan pipeline leaked 138,600 gallons (3,300 barrels) of diesel fuel onto private agricultural land in Worth County, Iowa, near Hanlontown
If you add up all the gallons you just posted they don't come to the amount that the train derailment in Quebec amounted to. And they experienced loss of life and tremendous fire. do you have any idea the thousands of miles of pipeline in this country? And do you have any idea statistically how much safer per barrel it is to ship via pipe than over land?
