Authorizing Enbridge Energy, Limited Partnership To Operate and Maintain Existing Pipeline Facilities at St. Clair County, Michigan, at the International Boundary Between the United States and Canada
Michigan-Canada Oil Pipeline Permit
Key Points
- This permit allows Enbridge Energy to continue operating and maintaining an existing 30-inch pipeline that crosses the border between St. Clair County, Michigan, and Canada.
- The pipeline is used to move crude oil and other fuel products like gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel between the United States and Canada.
- This new permit replaces an older agreement from 1991 and allows the company to change how much oil flows through the pipe without needing a new permit each time.
- Federal and state agencies will still have full access to inspect the pipeline to make sure it is safe and follows all environmental laws.
- The U.S. government keeps the right to take over the pipeline if it is ever needed for national security reasons.
