The U.S. State Department will approve the permit needed to proceed with construction of the Canada-to-U.S. Keystone XL oil pipeline, a project blocked by former President Barack Obama, according to a report by Politico on March 23. The State Department's undersecretary for political affairs, Tom Shannon, will approve the cross-border permit on or before March 27 for TransCanada Corp.'s (NYSE: TRP) project, the report said. This is at the end of the 60-day timeline that President Donald Trump ordered in January when he called for the construction of Keystone and the Dakota Access pipelines.
When asked about the report, TransCanada spokesman Terry Cunha said: "We're still working with the State Department, and Monday is the deadline, so that's what we're working towards." "
