Enbridge Pipeline: US-Canada Border Permit Update
Key Points
- Trump issued a new permit that allows Enbridge Energy to continue operating a 30-inch pipeline crossing the border between Michigan and Canada.
- The pipeline carries crude oil and other fuels like gasoline and diesel, but it is not allowed to carry natural gas under this specific agreement.
- This document updates a very old permit from 1953 to make sure the pipeline follows modern safety and environmental rules.
- Enbridge must pay for all costs if there is a leak and must let government inspectors check the pipeline at any time to make sure it is safe.
- The U.S. government can take control of the pipeline if it is needed for national security, but they would have to pay the company for using it.
