    An update:

    "Associated Press BILLINGS, Mont. —
    Exxon Mobil Corp. said Friday it expects to incur costs of about $135 million from an oil pipeline break beneath Montana's Yellowstone River that triggered a massive effort to limit damage to the scenic waterway."

    BTW, this was not within Yellowstone National Park, as at least one story misreported.
