Happy Wednesday! We are inching closer and closer to the holiday weekend. Here’s a look at what’s happening today:
Pipeline breach spills oil on Crow Reservation
BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) A breached oil pipeline has spilled an undetermined volume of crude on the Crow Indian Reservation in southeastern Montana after possibly leaking for months before it was discovered, a tribal official said Wednesday.
The unveiling will take place at 11 a.m. at 301 W. Dominick St.
Officials expected to attend include Oneida Indian Nation Representative Ray Halbritter, Rome Mayor Jacqueline Izzo and Oneida County Executive Anthony Picente Jr.
Izzo said the project was completely funded by the Nation and will help kick off public art projects on West Dominick Street, which is part of the city’s Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) project.
“There is a lot of history, and this is another way to showcase our history to the country,” Izzo said.
