Monday at 7pm â?? Crude Oil in Lake Michigan? Come with q

Post by Karen T. »

Excited about the response we have received for this Monday night's informational discussion on Enbridge Pipeline 5.

What are economic and environmental impacts of this Pipeline?

Monday night (Sept 21) at 7 pm at the Peaine Township Hall â??
Guest Speaker, Jon Allen, Director, DEQ Office of the Great Lakes

Pipeline 5 is 62 years old and goes from Superior, Wisconsin to Sarnia, Ontario.
It crosses the bottomlands of the Straits of Mackinac.
Every day it transports 22,700,000 gallons across the Straits.
It contains 80% crude oil and 20% natural gas liquids.

Come with your questions and knowledge on this topic.
