The controversial fight over the Keystone XL Pipeline continues Wednesday in Norfolk. 

The Public Service Commission, which will make the decision on whether or not the pipeline will be built in Nebraska, is holding a hearing from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. where supporters and opponents will weigh in. 

This is the third public hearing over the pipeline. Supporters say it will bring much-needed jobs to the state, while opponents say it could be harmful to the environment. 

The Public Service Commission plans to hold another hearing in August.
