to shut down the whole length of its pegasus pipeline which runs not just through arkansas, it runs all the way through illinois, all the way down into the gulf coast, all the way down to texas. that spill more than just shut down mayflower, arkansas. exxon ended up buying out some of the people who lived in the zone. exxon embarked on and paid for a solid year of dirty, toxic cleanup work in mayflower, arkansas. as of this weekend according to the arkansas democrat gazette exxonmobil said they re done, all taken care of. completed the cleanup of contaminated soil stemming from the burst pipeline last year. seems like part of the reason they want to declare it is over, they want to open their pipeline up again. they put in a formal request to restart the 200 miles of that runs through texas. you know, it s awkward for them. texas is right next to arkansas.
