Obama Decision on Keystone XL Coming in 90 Days

“The State Department plans to release Friday a much-anticipated environmental review on the Keystone XL pipeline,” the Wall Street Journal reports.  

“The review is likely to disappoint environmentalists but leave President Barack Obama the space to make a decision for or against construction of the pipeline, the person said. The release sets the stage for Mr. Obama to make a final decision in roughly 90 days on the pipeline, which would carry oil to the U.S. from Canadian oil sands.”
