Nebraska approves contentious Keystone XL pipeline
A regulator in the US state of Nebraska has granted a final permit to build a contentious oil pipeline that has faced staunch opposition for years in both Canada and the US. “We will make sure that none of that route ever gets approved,” said Jane Kleeb of Bold Nebraska, a local group that has been leading the fight against Keystone XL in Nebraska, after the vote. “It’s definitely a risk,” said Art Tanderup, a farmer and landowner in Neligh, Nebraska, whose land is along the proposed Keystone XL route. The Treaty Alliance, which represents indigenous communities along the Keystone XL pipeline route in both Canada and the US, said the Nebraska commission’s decision “does not change a thing”. Indigenous tribes “up and down the Keystone XL pipeline route will be standing strong along with all our other allies to beat back this threat to our water, our people and our future,” added Chairman Larry Wright Jr. of the Ponca Tribe in Nebraska.
