Join us for this special event, The Latest on Line 5: Key Pathways to Protect the Great Lakes from an Oil Spill Disaster.

Hear about recent developments in the widespread effort to shut down Enbridge’s Line 5 in the Straits of Mackinac and stop the proposed oil tunnel. Presenters will answer questions from attendees.

This event is occurring just after the 12th anniversary of the Enbridge Line 6B Kalamazoo River oil spill disaster. At the Straits of Mackinac, Enbridge Line 5 poses a dire threat in what University of Michigan scientists called "the worst possible place for an oil spill in the Great Lakes."

The online session is free and supported by a grant award from the Mackinac Island Community Foundation’s Natural Resources and Preservation Fund. Straits area residents are also encouraged to attend and share their concerns and questions.
