The U.S. Supreme Court will review Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel’s lawsuit against Enbridge regarding a pipeline beneath the Great Lakes channel, as it may impact state versus federal jurisdiction over the case. Nessel’s lawsuit aims to void the easement for Enbridge’s 4.5-mile pipeline under the Straits of Mackinac, which has raised pollution concerns since 2017.
The Michigan Department of Natural Resources revoked the easement in 2020, while Enbridge faces ongoing legal challenges regarding the pipeline from both Michigan and Wisconsin courts.
