Nebraska shifts Keystone XL route to dodge Sandhills
Officials unveiled a new preferred Nebraska route for the stalled Keystone XL oil line, veering east around the Sandhills before returning to the original path. TransCanada says the route adds about 100 miles to the 1700-mile project, which would run from Canada to Texas Gulf Coast refiners. The plan follows Gov. Heineman’s environmental review approval, amid ongoing debate over water and wildlife impacts and job claims.
