File: Hack Knocks Out U.S. Colonial Pipeline

FILE: Storage tanks at the Colonial Pipeline Co. Pelham junction and tank farm in Pelham, Alabama, U.S., on Monday, Sept. 19, 2016. Fuel suppliers are growing increasingly nervous about the possibility of gasoline and diesel shortages across the eastern U.S. almost two days after a cyberattack knocked out a massive pipeline. Colonial Pipeline said on Sunday, May 9, 2021, that it was still developing a plan for restarting the nations largest fuel pipeline -- a critical source of supply for the New York region -- and would only bring it back when safe to do so, and in full compliance with the approval of all federal regulations.
