April 9 (Reuters) - TransCanada Corp TRP.TO said it
received authorization from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials
Safety Administration on Saturday evening to restart the 590,000
barrel per day Keystone crude pipeline at reduced pressure.
The Canadian pipeline company said that regulator PHMSA has
approved a return to service plan for a controlled start. It was
not immediately clear when and if the pipeline had restarted.
The pipeline, which delivers light and heavy crude from
Hardisty, Alberta, to Cushing, Oklahoma, and Illinois, was shut
last Saturday after a potential leak was discovered in South
Dakota.
