Keystone XL Delayed By More Court Battles
Written by Sandy Williams
The Keystone XL pipeline faces another potential delay in its effort to finish construction through the U.S. Midwest. Nebraska landowners filed an appeal to the Nebraska Court of Appeals to contest the approval of the pipeline’s route through their state.
Landowners say the Nebraska Public Service Commission had no right to approve an alternative pipeline route instead of ruling on TransCanada’s preferred route. The environmental impact of the alternative route was never fully explored, they claim. Landowners are also concerned about losing property to eminent domain.
