The new plan was submitted by TransCanada, the pipeline's builder, to the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality on Wednesday. This development allows Nebraska officials to review the impact of the pipeline's adjusted route and also enables TransCanada to submit a new complete proposal covering the entire length of the pipeline to the State Department for its review.

Keystone will only benefit TransCanada. Neither Canadians, nor US Americans will reap ANY benefit. All will end up in T/C's executive pockets.

FPLREP: your handle wouldn't by chance stand for Florida Power and Light rep, would it?

Seems to me, you have a stake in keeping the status quo.

FPLREP - "Keep it in his face. Make him choose energy security or green voters."

Don't you mean choose between oil company profits or a growing economy?

Keystone XL has got nothing to do with energy security.

No idea of date of completion. Active protestants against pipe installation across Canada are still trying to stop pipes running through their regions.

Maybe it's a small payback - everything the president tried to do was blocked and opposed by republicans, no single cooperation on anything. Revenge is a bitch. And the pipe will do nothing for us, regular people, it will enrich big oil and help chinese.

Don't count on it with current admin., as before the fateful decision they proposed going around this most sensitive area & was still turned down. If this review happens before the election, then it will definitely be delayed or turned down...maybe after the election he will 'have more flexibility' as he told foreign diginitaries.

Keep it in his face. Make him choose energy security or green voters. I can see White House staff calling to find out which one has the bigger voting numbers.

This project should already be under construction but Borack HUSSEIN Obama is keeping his promise to all the liberal tree huggers that helped get him elected while the working man is stuggling to find work and pay for fuel to get to work...
