“There was no risk to the pipelines,” Enbridge said in a written statement.
Many of us agree that the proposed Enbridge tunnel is a ruse. Barbara Stamiris’ well written editorial in the Traverse City paper outlines reasons why this may be the case.

I suspected this right from the beginning. Enbridge is the big loser. Consumers pay the tab. Greed is self-destructive in the end... Totally unacceptable.
Good read and enlightening.
Kudos to Ian Bund for clearly describing Enbridge's greedy scheme to endanger our drinking water!

A drilling mud spill? Bentonite will destroy fish and habitat. Enbridge evidently is trying horizontal drilling in the site in Minnesota. They have proposed horizontal drilling under the Straits….. imagine a “frac out” here in Lake Michigan.

Army Corps plans extensive review of Great Lakes tunnel plan
www.record-eagle.com
TRAVERSE CITY (AP) — The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said Wednesday it would conduct an extensive review of Enbridge Energy’s plan to build an oil pipeline tunnel beneath aInteresting that the Corps will conduct a comprehensive EIS on the Enbridge mythical tunnel plan, but the newspapers are using a photo of damages to the Corps permitted anchor supports on the transformed elevated pipeline under the Straits of Mackinac. The Corps along with the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy both failed misserably to assess the risk of the transformed elevated line to catastrophic failure when they permitted the 217 anchor supports on the pipeline!! Meanwhile, former Governor Snyder gave Enbridge permission to continue pumping oil and natural gas liquids through a highly suspect and deterioating pipeline until a mythical tunnel is built. This is a recipe for disaster. We need an impartial engineering analysis of the transformed structure!
