The map also identifies oil tank and service stations, oil refineries, pipelines and pools. Hundreds of locations are individually numbered by state, each identifying the type of service provided. In addition, there are three inset maps displaying the natural gas pipeline around Lake Erie, Ohio and Kansas/Oklahoma/Texas.
