Oil Pipeline Regulation
Midwest Environmental Advocates has partnered with Wisconsin’s Green Fire to create resources to help you understand how pipelines are regulated in Wisconsin and how to make your voice heard in the decision-making process. These are currently important issues for a number of Wisconsin communities, including those affected by Enbridge Energy’s proposal to construct a new segment of Line 5 in Ashland and Iron Counties.
