Workers continue their efforts on exposed sections of the Keystone pipeline. An estimated 210,000 gallons of oil leaked from the Keystone Pipeline in Marshall County, South Dakota, according to the pipeline’s operator, TransCanada. Crews shut down the pipeline and officials are investigating the cause of the leak. A federal agency says a leak was caused by damage during construction in 2008. The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration issued a corrective action report on the estimated 210,000-gallon oil spill. The report says a weight installed on the pipeline nearly a decade ago may have damaged the pipeline and coating.<\/p><\/div>November 9, 2018 (ALBERTA) –<\/strong> In response to a <\/span>federal judge ruling that the Trump administration violated bedrock U.S. environmental laws when approving a federal permit for TransCanada\u2019s proposed Keystone XL tar sands pipeline project, Greenpeace\u2019s Climate & Energy campaigner Mike Hudema said:<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThis is a <\/span>significant setback for TransCanada\u2019s Keystone XL pipeline project and big win for Indigenous defenders, the environment, and <\/span>for the thousands of people who have been fighting this pipeline for nearly a decade. This should also be huge warning sign to the Liberal government about the inevitable legal hurdles they will face if they continue to rush and curtail the Trans Mountain assessment process.<\/span><\/p>\n The science is clear. We can\u2019t afford new fossil fuel infrastructure if we want to save the planet. New <\/span>tar sands pipeline projects threaten Indigenous rights, put drinking water and communities at risk, accelerate the climate crisis and move us in the wrong direction. If we are serious about halving <\/span>emissions from fossil fuels in the next 10 years and avoiding \u00a0climate catastrophe, we must drop any new <\/span>tar sands pipelines, full stop.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n -End-<\/p>\n Press Contact:<\/b><\/p>\n Loujain Kurdi, Greenpeace Canada, Communications Officer, loujain.kurdi@greenpeace.org, +1 (514) 577-6657.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" November 9, 2018 (ALBERTA) – In response to a federal judge ruling that the Trump administration violated bedrock U.S. environmental laws when approving a federal permit for TransCanada\u2019s proposed Keystone…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":5906,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"p4_og_title":"","p4_og_description":"","p4_og_image":"","p4_og_image_id":"","p4_seo_canonical_url":"","p4_campaign_name":"","p4_local_project":"","p4_basket_name":"","p4_department":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[32],"p4-page-type":[16],"class_list":["post-5873","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-climate","tag-oil","p4-page-type-story"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5873","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/19"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5873"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5873\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5909,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5873\/revisions\/5909"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5906"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5873"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5873"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5873"},{"taxonomy":"p4-page-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/canada\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/p4-page-type?post=5873"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
