BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) - An Oklahoma energy company says it has taken steps to ensure its facilities aren’t harmed by cows.
North Dakota health officials say a cow may have rubbed against a tank valve on Tuesday, spilling about 20 barrels of natural gas condensate in western North Dakota.
The site is owned by a subsidiary of Oneok Inc. based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Officials say the cleanup is under way and booms have been put in tributary to the Little Missouri River as a precaution.
Oneok says in a statement that the tank valve has been locked to prevent possible spills in the future.
