Spills happening at a rate of about 2 per day in Saskatchewan: researcher

A researcher says spills are happening at a rate of about two per day in Saskatchewan's oil industry.

University of Regina researcher Emily Eaton runs an independent website that tracks oil impact. Eaton said that there have been 8,000 spills in Saskatchewan since 2006 (about 17 per cent involved Husky Energy).

Eaton notes that the spills relate to oil, salt water, natural gas and other fluids used by the oil industry.
