President Obama has postponed a final decision on the Keystone Piple line until after the 2012 elections. While this is good news for those of us advocating for dismissal of authorization, the TransCanada Corporation continues to lobby in favor of the $7.5 billion pipeline which will traverse from Canada through Montana, S.D. and Nebraska and Kansas on the way to the gulf coast. Nebraska legislators passed a bill to disallow the pipeline from going through the Ogallala Aquifer.
The outcome of the request by TransCanada is not known at this time, but you can be assured that every possible means will be used by the advocates of the Pipeline to make it happen. SO, let us keep vigilant and be prepared to lobby against it, whenever it comes forth again.
