Notice of 30 Day Public Comment 

Period Regarding the National Interest 

Determination for TransCanada 

Keystone Pipeline, L.P.’s Presidential 

Permit Application 

AGENCY: Department of State. 

ACTION: Notice; Solicitation of 

Comments. 

SUMMARY: TransCanada Keystone 

Pipeline, L.P. applied on May 4, 2012, 

to the U.S. Department of State (‘‘State 

Department’’) for a Presidential Permit 

that would authorize construction, 

connection, operation, and maintenance 

of pipeline facilities on the U.S./

Canadian border in Phillips County, 

Montana for the importation of crude 

oil. The border facilities would be part 

of a proposed 875-mile pipeline and 

related facilities (the Keystone XL 

project) that is designed to transport up 

to 830,000 barrels per day of crude oil 

from Alberta, Canada and the Bakken 

shale formation in North Dakota and 

Montana. The pipeline would cross the 

U.S. border near Morgan, Montana and 

continue through Montana, South 

Dakota, and Nebraska, where it would 

connect to existing pipeline facilities 

near Steele City, Nebraska for onward 

delivery to Cushing, Oklahoma and the 

U.S. Gulf Coast region. 

Background information related to the 

application may be found at http://

www.keystonepipeline-xl.state.gov/. On 

January 31, 2014, the State Department

Keystone XL project. The application 

and the Final SEIS, along with other 

documents, are available through the 

State Department’s web address for the 

project shown above. 

Executive Order 13337 (69 FR 25299)

designee, to determine if issuance of a 

Presidential Permit would serve the 

national interest. This decision will take 

into account a wide range of factors, 

including energy security; 

environmental, cultural, and economic 

impacts; foreign policy; and compliance 

with relevant federal regulations and 

issues. 

The State Department invites 

members of the public to comment on 

any factor they deem relevant to the 

national interest determination that will 

be made for this permit application. 

Along with other factors such as those 

listed above, these comments will be 

considered in the final national interest 

determination. The public comment 

period will end 30 days from the 

publication of this notice.

be posted on the site http://

www.regulations.gov. The comments 

will not be edited to remove identifying 

or contact information, and the State 

Department cautions against including 

any information that one does not want 

publicly disclosed. The State 

Department requests that any party 

soliciting or aggregating comments 

received from other persons for 

submission to the State Department 

inform those persons that the State 

Department will not edit their 

comments to remove identifying or 

contact information, and that they 

should not include any information in 

their comments that they do not want 

publicly disclosed.
