Alaska Gas Pipeline Duel Faces Alaska and Canada
Alaska debates routing of a continental gas line from Prudhoe Bay to the Lower 48 with two proposals. The all Alaska route via Valdez and the Alcan cross Canada route are under study, with officials citing jobs, costs of up to 7.9 billion dollars and 2 trillion cubic feet of gas as driving factors. Prime Minister Trudeau backs the Alcan plan. President Carter may favor it or seek a Canada crossing pact. Construction could start by 1978 to 1979, gas on stream by 1982 if approved.
