In North Dakota, more than a million gallons of saltwater from oil drilling operations has leaked from a pipeline on a Native American reservation, covering nearly two miles. Saltwater is a byproduct of oil and gas drilling. The leak by Crestwood Midstream Services has killed vegetation and may have reached a bay connected to a drinking water source for the Fort Berthold reservation. It could take weeks to clean up.
