Bismarck, N.D. (AP) State regulators have agreed to allow construction of a new oil pipeline in eastern North Dakota.

The Keystone Pipeline is meant to carry crude oil from Alberta to locations in Illinois and Oklahoma. Its designers say the line will eventually transport almost 600,000 barrels of crude each day.

North Dakota's Public Service Commission voted to approve a route for the pipeline. The commission has set a number of conditions on its construction.
