quote Let’s be clear — I am an engineer; I am not telling you we shouldn’t build pipelines. We just should not build this one.

Mike Klink | Pipeline Inspector-Turned Whistleblower Calls Keystone XL a Potential “Disaster”

As an inspector, my job was to monitor the construction of the first Keystone pipeline. I oversaw construction at the pump stations that have been such a problem on that line, which has already spilled more than a dozen times. I am coming forward because my kids encouraged me to tell the truth about what was done and covered up.

When I last raised concerns about corners being cut, I lost my job — but people along the Keystone XL pathway have a lot more to lose if this project moves forward with the same shoddy work.
