From: Van Gerpen, PattySent: Friday, June 26, 2015 10:57 AMTo: Douglas, Tina (PUC)Subject: FW: Please reject the recertification of Keystone XL (Docket HP14-001)
Please post this Sierra Club‐relayed message in the KXL docket, HP14‐001, under Comments and Responses. ‐Patty ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ From: Sierra Club on [SMTP:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, June 26, 2015 9:26:45 AM To: PUC Subject: Please reject the recertification of Keystone XL (Docket HP14‐001) Auto forwarded by a Rule Jun 26, 2015 South Dakota PUC Dear PUC, I'm writing to urge the South Dakota PUC to reject TransCanada's application for recertification of the Keystone XL pipeline construction permit in South Dakota. The Keystone XL pipeline, which would pump toxic tar sands from Canada through our state to the Gulf of Mexico, is all risk and no reward for South Dakota. For example, TransCanada has admitted that it has no Emergency Spill Response plan for when the Keystone XL pipeline leaks in South Dakota. Increasing these risks is the fact that the proposed pipeline route places it through 200 miles of high‐risk landslide areas in South Dakota and crosses significant waterways, including the Missouri River, a major source of drinking water. The impacts of so‐called "man‐camps" and the increased risks of crime, sex trafficking, and sexual violence on vulnerable South Dakota and Native communities, has not been taken into account either. I am also troubled by the decision to exclude aboriginal rights and off‐reservation rights from the discussion on the whether the KXL pipeline permit should be granted recertification. Construction of this pipeline would put indigenous sacred sites and significant cultural areas at risk. Finally, I profoundly disagree with the PUC's decision to preclude testimony on climate change from the recertification process. The carbon‐intensive tar sands that Keystone XL would unlock will significantly exacerbate climate change, which puts South Dakota's agriculture, water resources, and tourism at risk. I urge the PUC to think about what's truly in the best longterm interest of South Dakota and reject the recertification of the Keystone XL pipeline. Sincerely,
