MOSCOW - Inspectors will check an underwater pipeline for pollution after it caught fire on a frozen river in Russia's Siberia, federal monitoring service Rostekhnadzor said Sunday. First reports suggest around 700 tons of liquefied petroleum gas (a mixture of propane and butane) could be on site, Rostekhnadzor spokesperson Andrei Vil said on his Telegram account. The pipeline's owner Russian petrochemicals giant Sibur said the gas leak happened Saturday, causing a short fire on the frozen River Ob in the oil-rich Khanty-Mansiysk region in Western Siberia. It happened 44 kilometers (27 miles) from the nearest residential area and there were no "risks for the population and the environment", the company added.

They voted against applying a 44 year protection called the Hyde amendment—one that was included in all five previous bipartisan COVID packages. — Steve Daines (@SteveDaines) March 6, 2021 Preventing taxpayer dollars from being used to fund abortions is something a majority of Americans agree with. I’m very disappointed to see Senate Democrats use COVID “relief” to get away with their pro-abortion agenda. — Steve Daines (@SteveDaines) March 6, 2021 While Daines worked to insert the longstanding Hyde Amendment into the measure, Senate Democrats … [Read more...] about Montana Sen.
