------------------------------------------------------------


 
In eastern Montana, crews have been struggling to clean up an oil spill
in the partially frozen Yellowstone River. The Bridger Pipeline company
has acknowledged 50,000 gallons of oil spilled from a burst pipeline.
Residents have reported an oily taste in their drinking water, and an
oil sheen has been spotted nearly 60 miles downstream.
