Inslee Orders Review Of Oil-Transportation Risks

(Olympia, WA)  --  Washington Governor Jay Inslee is directing state agencies to review the risks connected with increased transportation of oil by barge and rail.  The governor has told the state Department of Ecology to work with other agencies, the federal government, and tribal governments to study information that could help the state reduce the threat of accidents involving oil trains.  The directive is in response to several major oil-train accidents that have taken place in the U.S. and Canada in the past year.
