Buffett backs Keystone XL pipeline plan on Fox Business
Noted billionaire Warren Buffett urged support for TransCanada's Keystone XL project on Fox Business Network. He said he is not an expert but believes the $7 billion pipeline generally makes sense, with a route shift in Nebraska to avoid the Sandhills. State Department approval is required as the line would cross the U.S. border and traverse Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma, with connections proposed to the Bakken in North Dakota.
