Today the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Coast Guard officially ordered Plains
All American Pipeline to clean up the Refugio Beach oil spill caused by
a failure of its nearby pipeline. The joint order, authorized under the
Clean Water Act, serves to ensure that Plains will continues its work

further shoreline contamination. The order establishes federally
enforceable timelines and cleanup requirements for the long-term
response action that will be required.
