Central Arkansas Water objects to consent decree on Mayflower pipeline break

Central Arkansas Water has written federal Judge Kristine Baker to formally object to a consent decree between Exxon Mobil and the federal government on the Pegasus pipeline break that spewed heavy Canadian crude on a Mayflower subdivision and leaked into nearby wetlands. The decree - in which Exxon would pay a fine and agree to some precautionary procedures to be prepared for future breaks - is not consistent with the federal Clean Water Act's goal to eliminate discharge of pollutants into waterways.
