Scientist: Fault puts east Ark. at earthquake risk
He noted in his talk that a "major" gas pipeline crosses the fault near Marianna. Al-Shukri said the company that owned the pipeline - which he declined to name - was building a new line through the area, mirroring the old one's path. The scientist said the new pipes being laid were large enough for a man to walk through.
