In this May 22, 2014 photo provided by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, a 25,000-gallon oil spill burns in the Powder River Basin southeast of Buffalo, Wyo., after officials deliberately ignited the crude in what they say was their best cleanup option in the rugged area. BLM officials say a backhoe nicked the 6-inch pipe an unknown amount of time ago. They say corrosion set in at the damaged area, leading to the spill May 19.
