Alcan pipeline cost may double current estimate
An independent study questions the Alcan pipeline’s $10 billion price tag, suggesting overruns could reach 121 percent yet still yield national benefits. It warns worst case overruns near 325 percent could render the project too costly, raising gas prices or lowering Alaska gas receipts. John McMillian defends a 20 percent overrun and $10 billion total for the 4000 mile route from Northern Alaska through Canada to Montana diversions toward California and Illinois.
