Another Keystone Pipeline?

The South Dakota Public Utilities Commission unanimously approved a construction permit for the 5.2 billion dollar TransCanada Keystone pipeline.

By Associated Press

At its annual meeting, TransCanada officials said they are planning another crude oil pipeline that would bring oil from Alberta to the Gulf Coast - and the possible route could go through western South Dakota.  Hal Kvisle, president and CEO of TransCanada, says Keystone Phase Two would go from Alberta to Nebraska and then turn south to Port Arthur, Texas.

Kvisle showed shareholders a map with the pipeline entering the U.S. in northeast Montana and running diagonally to northwestern South Dakota and leaving the central part of the state at the southern border with Nebraska.  Shareholders were told that TransCanada is stockpiling pipe at many locations along the route for Keystone One -- and that it should be up and running by the end of next year.
