Landowners want details of proposed pipeline route

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa landowners want to see the details of a proposed oil pipeline that would carry crude oil from North Dakota across the state to Illinois.Texas-based Energy Transfer Partners has said the 1,100-mile pipeline would likely cross 17 Iowa counties as it crosses from the northwest corner of the state to the southeast corner.

Energy Transfer Partners spokeswoman Vicki Granado says public meetings will take place across Iowa in December.

Landowner Don Kreber agreed to let the company survey some of his farmland in O'Brien County, but he still hasn't heard many details yet.
