Nixon signs Alaska pipeline bill amid energy push
President Nixon signed the Alaska pipeline bill paving the way for a 789 mile Arctic route to tap a rich oil field. The $4.5 billion project aims for 600000 barrels per day at start, rising to 2 million later, with completion slated for 1977. Environmental suits had stalled work for three years. Nixon criticized some clauses but prioritized energy needs and sought repeal of broadened regulatory powers. He noted progress in Middle East negotiations and potential higher exports.
