sorry can't get a better image

 

i am posting this to show to all that the idiots spouting that pipelines are the better transport source are 100% full of shit
rail has become safer with every 5 year period
trucks are more dangerous because they are not alone on the road ways
and pipe line leakage listed is ONLY THE REPORTED LEAKS

 

Of course it is. This what happens when there is de regulation. Regulations exist for good purposes.

 

Over regulation exists for bad purposes.

There was nothing wrong with allowing the KEYSTONE XL to proceed.

 

Keystone XL Pipe Shuns Infrared Sensors to Detect Leaks

TransCanada Corp., which says Keystone XL will be the safest pipeline ever built, isn’t planning to use infrared sensors or fiber-optic cables to detect spills along the system’s 2,000-mile (3,200-kilometer) path to Texas refineries from fields in Alberta.

What is "over regulation?" Who determines what is "over regulation?" Regulated companies? Or the people who are harmed when something goes wrong, as it obviously has in this case.

 

I'm sure not. If you need more of an explanation beyond this one, let me know.

 

Are you arguing that additional, unnecessary pipelines pose no greater risk than if there is no additional pipeline?

A PIPELINE ALREADY EXISTS

 

It's kind of telling you want to keep running your mouth after it's been shown you don't know what you're talking about.

 

I saw that graphic (ridge runner) also.

Its plain to see you should have a lot more tank vessels and barges.
By far the safest way for the whole 27 years , and probably long before.

build canals , not pipelines

 

You keep thinking that.

Anything above the nonpermiable rock is nothing more than typical ground water runoff, it can be called whatever you want to call it, whatever they want to call it, it isn't non-potable.

Although it is fantastic for irrigation purposes.

 

asses of hate are you plain stuck on republican stupid?
we do drink what you call ground water every day, they're are 2 versions of it open source ground water and unconfined groundwater aquifers
open source would be rivers, lakes, and streams, any source that is open to the air and not covered by any natural covering
unconfined aquifers are what is known as the water table, underground rivers and lakes, and even confined man made water tanks
a confined aquifer is simply a water source that is covered by a natural material that is harder than simple topsoil

most wells are drilled into the confined aquifers for longevity but temporary wells are drilled into the unconfined aquifer because it costs less and it does not effect the overall water source as much

drilling into the confined aquifer is the same as drilling for oil or gas and creates a negative pressure within the earth that will leave a void and will soon cause sinkholes because of the actions of subsidence

 

Like I have said for most of my life....''it must be in the water''.

 

you will notice he could not and would not argue any of his points based on merit nor fact because he knows that he is wrong and has been proven thusly
dippie how do you thing societies have existed for the thousands of years leading up to the advent of drilling technology that came out of the industrial revolution?????
they did not have deep earth drills in the bible or even during the civil war

 

Soooooo just FYI the Ogallala aquifer, an unconfined aquifer, is the main source of water for millions of people. Maybe you, being the subject matter expert, should tell the whole state of Nebraska that their water isn't potable.

You don't know anything about any subject lol

 

Wait wait wait, ace just said unconfined aquifers don't exist.

If you wonder why I think you're stupid, it's because you are. At least do a modicum of research before you run your mouth.

Case and point: a water table is NOT always an unconfined aquifer. Not all aquifers are unconfined either. You still have a water table without an unconfined aquifer.


You guys don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

 

It's a good thing you just drink mountain dew, you might catch the intelligence



Wait wait wait, I thought aquifers couldn't be polluted? How can there be something in the water?

 

Let's see if better graphics clear things up for the uneducated.
Here's hoping they do show better than the previous

 

kk ROM heres is the deal I will ask you 3 questions to see what your understanding of basic geology is and you just answer them
1. define an aquifer
2. define water table
3. define a water table is NOT always an unconfined aquifer. Not all aquifers are unconfined either. You still have a water table without an unconfined aquifer. as it pertains to any symbalance of what i had said at all?

 

ROM do you see the little thing that says WATER TABLE? now look for UNCONFINED AQUIFER, then look for CONFINED AQUIFER
this educational experience was brought to you by the good people at national geographic and the word dumbass
