keystone xl final enviro impact statement says all is well. below is the blurb i saw from briefing.com friday afternoon, and the link is the entire press release with a lot more details on the subject. transcanada issued the press release on 9/9/2011. fyi, and i hope i am not duplicating someone's prior post on this matter.


14:16 TRP TransCanada: Final Environmental Impact Statement sees no significant impacts for Keystone project (42.15 -1.11)
The FEIS concluded that 'The analyses of potential impacts associated with construction and normal operation of the proposed Project suggest that there would be no significant impacts to most resources along the proposed Project corridor'... In the FEIS, seven alternative routes were studied. They included one potential alternative route in Nebraska that would have avoided the entire Sand Hills region and Ogallala aquifer and six alternatives that would have reduced pipeline mileage crossing the Sand Hills or the aquifer. None of these seven alternatives were preferable to the proposed route as 'these alternatives would be longer than the proposed route and would disturb more land and cross more water bodies than the proposed route' - FEIS. The FEIS further determined these alternative routes would affect substantially more agricultural land, developed land, forested land, range land and wetlands. They would also cross substantially more streams and rivers.
