Yesterday, the MPSC granted Enbridge approval for Phase Two of the project. We have the order and will report more– as we’ve already been discussing the MPSC recently— once we’ve read through it. In the meantime, here’s the Detroit Free Press story on the news. Needless to say, we are in perfect agreement with the “Enbridge critic” that Eric Lawrence quotes:
“We knew months ago that approval was inevitable. In my view, it’s unfortunate that the MPSC process so poorly serves the public, for example, by not allowing the NTSB report into the record and by making it so difficult for landowners to make themselves heard,” Insko wrote in an e-mail.
