RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) — The Pennington County Commission has given approval to TC Energy to use county roads during construction of the proposed Keystone XL crude oil pipeline.

The commission on Tuesday approved a route for moving TC Energy equipment, supplies and materials in Pennington County. The company has similar agreements with other counties involved along the pipeline which would pass through western South Dakota.

The Rapid City Journal says TC Energy is required to make any necessary improvements to the roads and keep them in good condition through the end of the construction project.
