Keystone XL review drags on 5 times longer than average

FILE - In this Feb. 24, 2015, file photo, Melinda Pierce, center, with the Sierra Club, holds a "No KXL" sign, next to a large poster of a pen as she gathers with other opponents of Keystone XL oil pipeline to celebrate President Barack Obama's veto of the legislation outside the White House in Washington. For six and a half years, the White House has had a quick comeback to questions about its yet-to-be-announced decision on the proposed Keystone XL pipeline: Talk to the State Department. Under a President George W. Bush-era executive order, border-crossing oil pipelines require a presidential permit, granted only after a government-wide review coordinated by the State Department. An Associated Press review of every cross-border pipeline application since 2004 shows that the Keystone review has been anything but ordinary. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin, File)
