Oil spill shuts riverside water intake and schools
An oil spill from a Farmland Refinery pipeline released about 32,000 gallons of light crude into the Verdigris River near Coffeyville, Kansas, prompting Nowata to close schools and Tulsa to shut its Oologah Lake water intake as crews use vacuums and ten containment booms. Authorities monitor water quality while transporting water from Bartlesville to sustain service.
