Pipeline battle over Iowa crude oil route faces appeal
Koch Refining Co executive vice president John Roper predicted a lawsuit will challenge the Iowa Natural Resources Council ruling against Northern Pipeline Co crossing three water ways in Linn and Fayette counties. The council barred stream crossings but allowed a Mississippi River crossing. The 475 mile route from Wood River Illinois to Minnesota faces further court action and potential reroute delays with an estimated six months to build and costs around 130 million dollars.
