TransCanada Corp.’s proposed $7 billion pipeline to Gulf Coast refiners poses “no significant impacts to most resources” along its route across six states, a U.S. State Department environmental review found.

The report on the Keystone XL pipeline said the risks are low provided TransCanada complies with U.S. law and follows recommended safeguards, according to the report posted today on the department’s website. A final decision on the project will be made this year, the State Department has said.
