CLARITY
ClarityTM is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) review process that enables Clark Construction Company to ensure before construction starts that MEP trade contractors will install their systems without interfering with each other This results in a reduced number of Owner change orders minimizes schedule delays as clashes are detected prior to mobilizing to complete the work and overall smoother construction flow
BIM coordination sign-off is complete for the Old County Building The final BIM model will be included in the closeout documents for the project It was agreed to do drawing coordination in lieu of BIM on Administration Circuit Court Talmer and Clemens Buildings as a Valued Engineering item This provided savings in cost and schedule This was accepted on all building where construction was performed per floor in occupied buildings After demolition is complete a full scan of the floor is required to initiate the BIM process adding a two week delay to the schedule There are numerous clash detection meetings required to complete the BIM process It was determined valuable to use at the Old County Building only

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

CLARITY
ClarityTM is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) review process that enables Clark Construction Company to ensure before construction starts that MEP trade contractors will install their systems without interfering with each other This results in a reduced number of Owner change orders minimizes schedule delays as clashes are detected prior to mobilizing to complete the work and overall smoother construction flow
BIM coordination sign-off is complete for the Old County Building The final BIM model will be included in the closeout documents for the project It was agreed to do drawing coordination in lieu of BIM on Administration Circuit Court Talmer and Clemens Buildings as a Valued Engineering item This provided savings in cost and schedule This was accepted on all building where construction was performed per floor in occupied buildings After demolition is complete a full scan of the floor is required to initiate the BIM process adding a two week delay to the schedule There are numerous clash detection meetings required to complete the BIM process It was determined valuable to use at the Old County Building only

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

CLARITY
ClarityTM is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) review process that enables Clark Construction Company to ensure before construction starts that MEP trade contractors will install their systems without interfering with each other This results in a reduced number of Owner change orders minimizes schedule delays as clashes are detected prior to mobilizing to complete the work and overall smoother construction flow
BIM coordination sign-off is complete for the Old County Building The final BIM model will be included in the closeout documents for the project It was agreed to do drawing coordination in lieu of BIM on Administration Circuit Court Talmer and Clemens Buildings as a Valued Engineering item This provided savings in cost and schedule This was accepted on all building where construction was performed per floor in occupied buildings After demolition is complete a full scan of the floor is required to initiate the BIM process adding a two week delay to the schedule There are numerous clash detection meetings required to complete the BIM process It was determined valuable to use at the Old County Building only

In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

CLARITY
ClarityTM is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) review process that enables Clark Construction Company to ensure before construction starts that MEP trade contractors will install their systems without interfering with each other This results in a reduced number of Owner change orders minimizes schedule delays as clashes are detected prior to mobilizing to complete the work and overall smoother construction flow
BIM coordination sign-off is complete for the Old County Building The final BIM model will be included in the closeout documents for the project It was agreed to do drawing coordination in lieu of BIM on Administration Circuit Court Talmer and Clemens Buildings as a Valued Engineering item This provided savings in cost and schedule This was accepted on all building where construction was performed per floor in occupied buildings After demolition is complete a full scan of the floor is required to initiate the BIM process adding a two week delay to the schedule There are numerous clash detection meetings required to complete the BIM process It was determined valuable to use at the Old County Building only

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

CLARITY
ClarityTM is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) review process that enables Clark Construction Company to ensure before construction starts that MEP trade contractors will install their systems without interfering with each other This results in a reduced number of Owner change orders minimizes schedule delays as clashes are detected prior to mobilizing to complete the work and overall smoother construction flow
BIM coordination sign-off is complete for the Old County Building The final BIM model will be included in the closeout documents for the project It was agreed to do drawing coordination in lieu of BIM on Administration Circuit Court Talmer and Clemens Buildings as a Valued Engineering item This provided savings in cost and schedule This was accepted on all building where construction was performed per floor in occupied buildings After demolition is complete a full scan of the floor is required to initiate the BIM process adding a two week delay to the schedule There are numerous clash detection meetings required to complete the BIM process It was determined valuable to use at the Old County Building only

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

OTHER CONSERVATION DISTRICT ACTIVITY
In other activity this past year the St Clair amp Sanilac Conservation District has spent time servicing Macomb County with the following programs or activities Partnering with the Macomb Conservation District Board of Directors The partnership of the St Clair and Sanilac CD is being expanded to the Macomb CD to help them with the troubled times This past spring the Macomb CD Board of Directors has decided that it would close the CD office due to lack of programs and available funding In an effort to preserve the popular reforestationtree sale program the partnership work together to send out mailings and advertisement throughout Macomb County Upon tree seedling pickup several people from Macomb thanked the conservation district for offering these ldquoout of countyrdquo services to them Currently we are trying to figure out logistics of offering a 3rd pickup location to be located in Macomb County for spring of 2017 Since closure of the Macomb CD office files and other needed paperwork have been re-located to the St Clair CD office to be available for servicing Macomb County residents As mentioned before the St Clair CD office is located with the St Clair amp Macomb County USDA This unique location offers an advantage to continue servicing landowners in the Macomb County agriculture sector with ease The St Clair and Sanilac Conservation Districtsrsquo Board of Directors also continue to explore options of Conservation District consolidation to create one board of directors encompassing combined counties and also creating equal representation within the jurisdictional boundaries This approach would decrease administrative overhead and offer more opportunity to secure conservationenvironmental programs to service residents of all counties Conservation Technical Assistance Initiative (CTAI) This past year the Conservation District has been busy looking for grants to utilize the Macomb appropriations of and additional $20000 to be used by the Conservation District Partnership Unfortunately we were unable to secure a grant that required match Good news however we secured a CTAI grant that is fully funded by MDARD and USDA With such great success with the Farm Bill Program Initiative in Macomb St Clair and Sanilac Counties these two agencies seen the need to fund an additional person to help NRCS with implementing the new projects that these funds are allocated to Continued Support The Farm Bill Program that Macomb County helps fund will be entering its thirdfinal year of the original grant this fall The Conservation District will be working with USDA-NRCS to renew this agreement beginning in the fall of 2017 Momentarily we donrsquot know how much local match will be required for a renewal of this agreement Once this required match is known the Conservation District will begin working with the Commissioners of both Macomb and St Clair Counties to continue this successful program In the past year Joe Kautz District Manager has met with the Executiversquos Office Joe and Mr Lorenzo had great conversation about Conservation District functions as well as discussion of the additional $20000 allocation The Conservation District will be scheduling another meeting with the Executiversquos Office to continue educating about the needs of conservation programs in Macomb County The Conservation District would like to secure the support from the Executiversquos Office for continued funding of the additional $20000 if needed for local match for more grants

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge to pay $36M to assess Line 5 spill riskPaul Egan Detroit Free Press 804 pm EDT July 12 2016
LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

Seven proposals were submitted mdash three for the alternatives analysis and four for the risk analysis officials said The proposals were assessed by anintershyagency technical review team from the Michigan Agency for Energy Schuettes office the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality theMichigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Public Service Commission
ldquoThis agreement ensures that Michiganders can be certain these studies were prepared by experts without a preshyexisting agenda or desired outcomerdquosaid DEQ Director Keith Creagh ldquoWe will have the resources and the independence we need to do this rightrdquo
The selection of the contractors follows recommendations that were made by a technical review team composed of staff from those governmentagencies The Pipeline Safety Advisory Board and members of the public also provided input to the agencies in the development of the Requests forInformation (RFIs) that were issued on Feb 23
The studies were developed in response to recommendations from the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force Report coshychaired by Schuette releasedin July 2015

Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo

LANSING mdash The state has selected two contractors to assess the spill risk of the Enbridge Line 5 pipelinesunder the environmentally sensitive Straits of Mackinac and examine alternatives for moving the oil thepipelines carry officials announced Tuesday
Enbridge Energy the owner of the pipelines will pay the full cost of the studies regardless of the findings theMichigan Agency for Energy and Attorney General Bill Schuette said in news releases
Schuette said Enbridge has agreed put close to $36 million into an escrow fund to pay for the studiesoverseen by the state
ldquoThis announcement ensures the state will get the information it needs to best protect the Great Lakes and the citizens of Michiganrdquo said Valerie Braderexecutive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy ldquoMoreover these experts who will work solely for the people of Michigan will come at no cost tothe staterdquo
But the environmental coalition Oil amp Water Dont Mix criticized the agreement saying it will give Enbridge access to the final report ahead of the public
Dynamic Risk Assessment Systems headquartered in Calgary Alberta Canada was selected to evaluate the current pipelines and the alternatives tothem including the potential impacts of those alternatives the news release said
Det Norske Veritas (USA) is to conduct an independent risk analysis determining the potential financial risk of a worstshycase spill and what resourceswould be necessary to clean up and pay for damages from such a spill
There is growing concern about the risk of a leak from the pipelines under the Straits of Mackinac and what damage such a spill could do to the GreatLakes tourism and other aspects of Michigans economy
Last week groups demonstrated outside Schuettes home in Midland demanding an immediate shutdown of the pipelines
Enbridge insists the pipelines which were built in 1953 and carry nearly 23 million gallons of oil a day are safe Line 5 is a 30shyinch pipeline from SuperiorWis to Sarnia Ontario which splits into two 20shyinch lines under the straits
But others say the risk is too great given the age of the pipelines the damage a spill would do and Enbridges track record which includes a 2010pipeline burst and spill of more than 1 million gallons of heavy tar sands oil into the Kalamazoo River watershed
The studies expected to be completed in the summer of 2017 are intended to help state officials make decisions about the future of the pipelines
Enbridge spokesman Ryan Duffy said the company is pleased the state selected independent companies that understand energy infrastructure and theimportant role pipelines play in delivering energy as well as protecting the environment
We continuously monitor and inspect Line 5 and while its not perfect we know through our very rigorous inspection process that the line is in very goodcondition Duffy said We believe this additional analysis will reach the same conclusion
But environmentalists expressed concern that Enbridge will have at least five days to study the report before it is made public
Todayrsquos announced deal with Enbridge not only gives Enbridge a big leg up to publicly shoot down recommendations they donrsquot like it also providesthem an opportunity to lobby for changes in the report while the public is kept in the darkrdquo said David Holtz chair of the Michigan chapter of the SierraClub which is part of the Oil amp Water Dont Mix coalition
ldquoItrsquos extremely disappointing that the governor and attorney general are continuing to grant concessions to Enbridge that call into question whether theyare truly committed to ending the threat of a catastrophic oil spill in the Great Lakesrdquo
