The Obama administration is expected to reject the massive application by a Canadian firm to build an oil pipeline across the U.S.-Canada border, The Washington Post reports.
The administration will announce this afternoon the rejection of the application for a permit to build and operate the Keystone pipeline, the Post said, quoting "sources who've been briefed on the matter."
TransCanada will be able to reapply after it develops an alternate route through the sensitive habitat of Nebraska’s Sandhills.
Deputy Secretary of State William J. Burns will make the announcement.
