After a quiet stretch on the Line 6B front, things seem to have begun to rumble a bit lately– mainly because of the MPSC phase two decision<\/a>. So we’ve been as busy here at the blog as we’ve been in a little while. In fact, we hope you’ve had a chance to look at our series on the MPSC proceedings<\/a>, not to mention our response to some recently discovered Enbridge<\/a> supporters and the surprising appearance of some outspoken state legislators<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But mostly, we hope you’ve taken a spin through our most recent post about the MPSC.<\/a> Frankly, we think it may be the most important thing we’ve written here. After all, we’ve known for a long time that Enbridge more or less gets to do what it wants around here. But to think that this Canadian corporation is also effectively rewriting our state regulations!– well, that’s almost more than we can take. In fact– and we try not to ask this very often– if you’re able, please share that post<\/a> with others through whatever channels (email, Facebook, that Twitter thing, online news comments sections) you see fit.<\/p>\n

Anyway, we’re unlikely to have time to post any more this week, even though we’ve got other stuff to share with you. For one, we met with Brandon Township supervisor Kathy Thurman today (a hero and a genuine state treasure!) and learned some interesting things about their agreement with Enbridge (for \u00a0a refresher, take a peek back at the series<\/a>). And for another, on our way home, we spent some time snapping photos of construction activity in Brandon. So you can expect a slideshow of photos at some point as well.<\/p>\n

Finally, we’re looking for ways to reach phase two landowners, in both Michigan and Indiana. If you know anyone along the route, please let them know about us as a resource. Enbridge ROW agents are surely going to be buzzing like bees now that they’ve got MPSC approval. We want landowners to be as informed and protected as possible during their negotiations. Plenty of good people are doing important work in terms of environmental protection in Indiana<\/a>; we’d just like to see plenty of landowner protections in place as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
