Sept 30 (Reuters) - TransCanada Corp TRP.TO said on
Wednesday it will seek approval from the Nebraska Public Service
Commission for its Keystone XL crude oil pipeline route through
the state.
The proposed route for the pipeline was evaluated by the
Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality and approved by the
Nebraska Governor in 2013, the company said.
The U.S. State Department is yet to grant approval for the
1,179-mile (1,900-km) pipeline from Hardisty, Alberta to Steele
City, Nebraska that will transport Canadian and U.S. Bakken oil
to U.S. markets.
