Call to Action: Stop Line 5 Tunnel

Time Range For Action Alert: March 16, 2021 to May 31, 2021

URGENT ACTION ALERT 3/16/2021

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!*

Contact the Army COE, the MPSC, and your elected representatives, to show your opposition:

Michigan Senate’s Website: Find Your Senator

 The LWV Michigan supports Governor Whitmer’s and Attorney General Nessel’s actions to terminate and permanently revoke the easement that allows Enbridge Line 5 (a Canadian Oil and Natural Gas Liquid Transport Pipeline) to operate in the Straits of Mackinac. 


Stopping the Line 5 tunnel is just one of the environmental issues our League’s Environmental and Natural Resources Committee is working on. To join this committee, contact Ann Scott alscott2050@gmail.com or Marcia Meyer marciakmeyer@gmail.com .
