An underground pipe, owned by Plains All American Pipeline, spewed oil down a culvert and into the Pacific on May 19 before it was shut off. Exxon Mobil Corp. won approval Monday, Feb. 1, 2016, for its plan to use trucks to move more than 17 million gallons of oil stranded in storage tanks after a California pipeline break in May, despite concerns from an environmental group that highway safety could be jeopardized.
