JENNER- Crews have managed to contain a leak of between 100-thousand and 200-thousand litres of oil and water from a pipeline in southern Alberta.
The Alberta Energy Regulator says the leak was discovered Saturday in a marsh east of Jenner, about 250 kilometres southeast of Calgary.
The line is owned by Calgary-based Cor4 Oil Corporation, which says crews have recovered a large volume of the spill and soil affected by it is being removed.
The company also says the impact on wildlife appears to have been minimal.
