let -- i want to show you video, a setup to why we are here in williston, north dakota. one of the greatest american economic stories of the past decade has taken place not in the koesz cozy confines of sili valley, but the high plains of north dakota. over ten years, no state has benefited more from oil's boom and no city in the state has benefited more than williston. growth here reigns supreme as oil production and jobs surged.

i'm brian sullivan in williston, north dakota.his is not the keystone pipeline, one you may not have heard about, but it is called the dap, dakota access pipeline, it was approved yesterday by 3-0. the reason why that matters is one of the big problems with oil in the bakken is the higher cost relative to texas. the ground is hard, labor is more expensive. getting the oil out of here is expensive. truck, train, pipeline your only option. the dakota access pipeline will be built and completed and it will help take out a couple hundred thousand new barrels of oil a day, lowering the price here. and yesterday we went out to where they were building a tank gathering space station and spoke with a developer on the land involved in the deal. right now in a rough way about half the oil coming out of the bakken is done by pipeline, the other half by truck and rail. this design to make more go by pipeline. how much, when this is completed, will this bring out of the bakken. >> 475,000 barrels a day to 550 at full capacity. so it can handle

in america may have benefited more from oil's boom than williston, north dakota. but now no town in america may be feeling the hit from oil's collapse as much either. those who came here from all over america looking for a job are now going back home. the work just simply isn't there. as overproduction has forced the number of new wells being drilled to dry up. we went out to one of the few remaining oil rigs and spoke with its manager about what's happen together workers. >> the problem is, you lost the crews that you trained up, those guys are gone. that's the problem with the down cycle is you lose all your talented people, now you've got to retool, respool, retrain. >> during the peak of the oil boom tens of thousands of workers came to north dakota. most of them lived in what they call a man camp. the nice word is hotel. basically 1,000-plus workers all living in dormitory-style arrangements with a big master hall. this was pretty much considered the cream of the crop, the best ones, the capital lodge. at its peak, 1,200 workers, three hots and a cot every da

it is williston, north carolina. we first visited there in october 2013, it has fallen, last year of december 2014, where it was by the way, minus 20 degrees during our first morning hit. it is expected to be 60 on thursday and friday. 80 degrees swinging temperature. listen, we're going there for one reason. a, we met a lot of nice people, see how they're doing. but also, try to understand a little bit more about what is going on in america. i think the thing that's surprising, despite the fact that we've seen prices come down so much, oil production is still very high, and i want to go to wells and find out why are you still taking so much oil out of the ground. >> i want to go to the man camps and see if they're equally staffed as during the boom. >> i don't want to give away everything, but i will say this. some of them are not staffed at all. these were -- i met a guy -- >> ghost towns basically. >> december '14, whatever it was, met a guy who paid $600 a month for an unheated, unplumped gar range. towed go to t

i'm up in williston north dakota. >> over the course of two months fault lines repeatedly tried to contact nabors about their safety record and what happened to dustin. our requests for an interview declined. the data varies, but dustin payne was one of at least forty oil and gas industry workers who died on the job in north dakota in the last four years. his death is currently being investigated by osha. >> 40 guys have died out there since 2011. all sorts of accidents. we're looking for accountability. what part of that accountability lies with you and in your office? >> with me and with osha. you know, like i said in the coldest terms, our responsibility is to enforce the safety regulations. >> eric brooks is the area director for osha, the occupational safety and health administration. it's the federal agency charged with enforcing health and safety in the workplace. osha only has nine fulltime compliance officers for north dakota, and according to some estimates it would take decades for osha to inspect every workplace in the state. >> while we have 9 people assigned to this area's of

the merger in manhasset and williston park was meant to cut costs but some said it's bad for the area. the former precinct, residents precincts dissolved. >> and we were told it was going to be a money-saving move and we have yet to see that in writing. >> burglaries are on the rise. you have heroin-related crimes that are on the rise. >> and this department's models are beyond reproach. crime is reduced since the precinct consolidation and anyone that said there is any impact on this is either misinformed or disingenuous. >> and there have been other precinct mergers in the county, which the commissioner said will stay that way because the budget can't support reopening them. >>> and it's 6:18. and botox parties are not for women. what brotox parties are about and plus this. . >> and when we return, super man was in time square recently and no one noticed how actor henry cavill was hiding in plain sight. this morning after gapes on wednesday. the dow jones industrial added 74 points and added 35. the s&p rose by 11. hey what are you here for? you getting poked, prodded or pinched?? u
