TC Energy says the affected part of the pipeline has been isolated. The company is using booms, vacuum trucks and an earthen dam to prevent the oil from moving downstream.

The company says the pipeline was operating within its design and regulatory approval requirements at the time of the spill.

The U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration is investigating the cause of the spill.
