URGENT ACTION ALERT 3/16/2021, League of Women Voters Ann Arbor Area
Michigan’s Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE) by law must issue Enbridge the permit necessary to continue plans for a Line 5 tunnel under the Straits of Mackinac.
HOWEVER, the Detroit District of the Army Corp of Engineers and the Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) BOTH CAN DENY the additional necessary permits.
*YOU CAN HELP STOP THE LINE 5 TUNNEL!*
