Keystone Pipeline through Kansas

I'm confused why people were protesting this pipeline in Topeka, Kansas on September 26, 2011, because I thought there was ONLY one pipeline segment that ran through Kansas. The pipeline was buried in Kansas LAST YEAR (2010) and completed to Cushing, Oklahoma in February 2011. My confusion is why are they whining in Kansas when the pipeline is already completed through the state? They aren't digging another pipeline in Kansas, right? • SbmeirowTalk • 04:15, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

See Keystone Pipeline System document. It doesn't state anything about building a 2nd pipeline through Kansas. • SbmeirowTalk • 07:22, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The article had a bunch of mistakes because it was written back in 2008. I correct some mistakes and split the routing into phases to match the TransCanada PDF document. I added a Cushing infobox and renamed the pipelines to match the TransCanada PDF document. The article needs MORE fixing to match the phases and cleanup of old or out-of-date information. Please help! • SbmeirowTalk • 05:52, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

First on their list was a firm called Entrix, and the State Department helpfully picked them to run the process—which is shabby enough. But if you go to the Entrix website, you discover that Transcanada is … a “major client.” It simply doesn’t get sleazier than this; the Times has called it a “flouting of environmental law.” It’s more like a poster child for Occupy Wall Street;...
