For those that don't know, the Yellowstone is a long river. This spill is up in the NW Corner near Glendive, close to the oil patch. The river does not drain in the direction of Yellowstone NP (The water flows out of the park northeastward) so no worries about Yellowstone NP. The River downstream of Glendive is another story....

These spills happen at regular intervals on the Yellowstone; there seems to be lax enforcement by state and/or federal officials.
