Supreme Court Sides with Michigan in Legal Battle Over Enbridge Pipeline Shutdown

Supreme Court Sides with Michigan in Legal Battle Over Enbridge Pipeline Shutdown

The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled in favor of Michigan, allowing the state's lawsuit to shut down a section of the Enbridge Line 5 pipeline to remain in state court. The pipeline, which has been operational since 1953, runs beneath the Straits of Mackinac, connecting Lake Michigan and Lake Huron. Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel initiated the lawsuit in 2019, seeking to void the easement that permits the pipeline's operation due to environmental concerns. Enbridge attempted to move the case to federal court, citing international trade implications, but the Supreme Court's decision supports the state's jurisdiction over the matter.
