Keystone Pipeline generating controversy

Can the Nebraska Supreme court declare a state law unconstitutional?  This was the legal question when their Governor approved a pipeline to cross that state passing through the Nebraska Sandhills.  Major public concern is that a rupture in that pipeline would extensively damage the Ogallala Aquifer underlying most of Nebraska, primarily its vast Sandhills and parts of neighboring states:  MT, WY, SD, CO, KS, OK, NM and TX.  Nebraska sand-filtered waters are perhaps the purest anywhere in the world with its very low population, virtually no industry or manufacturing and abundant, lake-filled sandhills grasslands. Such high quality water is itself highly saleable in today’s national and international markets.
