当地人和环保主义者要求对瓦尔德斯的老油箱班轮采取行动,担心发生重大溢油事件,而Alyeska则表示风险极低。 Locals and environmentalists demand action on aging oil tank liner in Valdez, fearing a major spill, while Alyeska says risk is extremely low.

巴尔德斯的利益攸关方因Valdez海洋终点站储油罐下陈旧沥青衬里的安全而分裂,当地官员和环境团体敦促Alyeska输油管服务公司全面检查、修理或更换,理由是48年来检查最少,发现漏油。 Stakeholders in Valdez are split over the safety of the aging asphalt liner under oil storage tanks at the Valdez Marine Terminal, with local officials and environmental groups urging Alyeska Pipeline Service Company to fully inspect, repair, or replace it, citing minimal inspection over 48 years and detected leaks. 他们警告说,可能发生与1989年埃克森·巴尔德斯灾难相似的泄漏事件。 They warn of a potential spill comparable to the 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster. Alyeska对风险提出质疑,称不可能发生重大溢漏——每10万年一次——并说它有反应计划和定期检查,尽管细节尚未透露。 Alyeska disputes the risk, calling a major spill unlikely—once every 100,000 years—and says it has response plans and regular inspections, though details remain undisclosed. 由于Alyeska考虑采用诸如电测试和液压洪水等方法来评估埋在土壤和砾石下的50英亩衬里,因此仍在继续进行监管审查,没有经核准的检查计划。 Regulatory review continues, with no approved inspection plan, as Alyeska considers methods like electrical testing and hydraulic flooding for assessing the 50-acre liner buried under soil and gravel.
