After lying, Biden admin admits they may shut down another oil pipeline, further limiting supply during surging gas prices

[ColonelAngus]

Why lie in the first place, just to backtrack?

When are we supposed to believe what this admin says?

White House backtracks after slamming pipeline reporting as 'inaccurate,' admits admin is weighing shutdown

White House deputy press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre backtracked Monday after slamming reporting on the Line 5 pipeline in Michigan as "inaccurate," admitting that the administration is indeed exploring shutting it down amid a global energy crisis.

This pipeline feeds the heating oil needs of the northeast...just before winter a shutdown of that pipeline will end up killing people....

Fake News.

Peter Doocy, who asked why the Biden administration is "now considering shutting down the Line 5 pipeline from Canada to Michigan"

"So, Peter, that is inaccurate," Jean-Pierre fired back.

Doocy said. "I said, is it being studied right now? Is the administration studying the impact of shutting down the Line 5?

"Yes, we are. We are," Jean-Pierre replied. "I thought you were saying that we were going to shut it down, but that is not inaccurate. The Army Corps of Engineers is preparing an environmental impact to look ......."

Enbridge's data reveal that sections of Line 5 in the Mackinac Straits are cracked and dented, and a segment on land near the Straits has lost 26% of its original wall thickness. Under the best conditions, only 30% of an oil spill would be recovered.

Cutting supply during a shortage is ridiculous.

Another reason to impeach.

When commerce or politicians really start caring about the environment they will pass laws to insure outdated pipelines are replaced with new pipe instead of selling those old line companies to someone wanting to make a fast buck on the little life left in them.

Glad I live in Florida. Don't have to worry about heating oil. Feel sorry for those up North.

Overview
Enbridge Energy’s Line 5 pipeline was built in 1953 and extends for 645 miles across the state of Michigan. Line 5, which is part of Enbridge’s Lakehead System, begins in Superior, Wisconsin, and ends in Sarnia, Canada.

LINE 5 DETAILS
The pipeline is a single, 30-in diameter pipe except for the section that crosses the Straits of Mackinac. That 4.5-mile section is two separate pipelines, each 20 inches in diameter, that lie on the lake bottom. The pipeline’s route through the Straits is within an easement issued in 1953 by the State of Michigan. The easement authorized Lakehead Pipe Line Co., Inc., which eventually became Enbridge Energy Limited Partnership, “to construct, lay and maintain pipe lines over, through, under and upon certain lake bottom lands …for the purpose of transporting petroleum and other products. … ”

Line 5 transports up to 540,000 barrels – or 22.68 million gallons – per day of light crude oil and natural gas liquids, according to Enbridge. Some of the natural gas liquids are refined into propane and used in the Upper Peninsula, while other products are routed for processing at oil refineries in Detroit and Toledo, Ohio. The remainder crosses the St. Clair river for processing in Sarnia.

Some Michigan drilling companies use Line 5 to transport the oil they produce. That product is introduced into the pipeline at Lewiston, Michigan.

MARSHALL SPILL RAISES AWARENESS
In 2010, about 21,000 barrels of heavy crude oil spilled in a tributary of the Kalamazoo River near Marshall from a line owned by Enbridge.

As a result of the Kalamazoo River spill – one of the largest inland spills in U.S. history – the State and Enbridge in May 2015 entered into a $75 million Consent Judgment. That was followed in July 2016 with a Consent Decree between Enbridge and the federal government to resolve claims related to the Marshall spill. Enbridge agreed to pay $110 million on spill prevention and pipeline operations in the Great Lakes region and a $61 million fine. Cleanup efforts are ongoing and are estimated at more than $1 billion.

The spill prompted increased attention and focus on the potential ecological and economic damage that could occur if the Line 5 pipeline running beneath the Straits of Mackinac failed.

It would be real something if oil spilled into the great lakes.

The Problem with the Line 5 Oil Pipeline

The aging Enbridge Line 5 pipelines threaten Michigan, the Great Lakes, and the climate every day. They carry Canadian crude oil through 21% of the world's fresh surface water at the heart of the Great Lakes.

www.oilandwaterdontmix.org

Every day, nearly 23 million gallons of oil flow through two aging pipelines in the heart of the Great Lakes, just 1.5 miles west of the Mackinac Bridge. Constructed during the Eisenhower administration in 1953, the two 20-inch-in-diameter “Line 5” pipelines owned by Canadian company Enbridge, Inc., lie exposed at the bottom of the Straits of Mackinac - a busy shipping channel.
