( printed page 21217) Presidential Permit of April 15, 2026 Authorizing Enbridge Energy Company, Inc. To Operate and Maintain Existing Pipeline Facilities at St. Clair County, Michigan, at the International Boundary Between the United States and Canada By virtue of the authority vested in me as President of the United States of America (the “President”), I hereby grant this Presidential permit, subject to the conditions herein set forth to Enbridge Energy Company, Inc. (the “permittee”). The permittee is a company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware and is a subsidiary of Enbridge Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Canada. Permission is hereby granted to the permittee to operate and maintain existing pipeline Border facilities, as described herein, at the international border of the United States and Canada in St. Clair County, Michigan between the cities of Port Huron and Marysville, Michigan, for the transport between the United States and Canada of crude oil and petroleum products of every description, refined or unrefined (inclusive of, but not limited to, naphtha, liquefied petroleum gas, natural gas liquids, jet fuel, gasoline, kerosene, and diesel), but not including natural gas subject to section 3 of the Natural Gas Act, as amended ( 15 U.S.C. 717b ). This permit supersedes and revokes the Presidential permit issued previously, dated April 28, 1953. This permit does not affect the applicability of any otherwise-relevant laws and regulations. As confirmed in Article 2 of this permit, the Border facilities shall remain subject to all such laws and regulations. The term “Facilities” as used in this permit means the portion in the United States of the international pipeline project associated with the permittee's January 16, 2026, application for an amendment to its existing permit, and any land, structures, installations, or equipment appurtenant thereto. The term “Border facilities” as used in this permit means those parts of the Facilities consisting of a 30-inch diameter in existence at the time of this permit's issuance extending from a point between the cities of Port Huron and Marysville, Michigan, to a point in the St. Clair River on the international boundary between the United States and Canada, to and including the first mainline shut-off valve or pumping station in the United States located approximately 1.5 miles from the international border, and any land, structures, installations, or equipment appurtenant thereto. This permit is subject to the following conditions: Article 1 . The Border facilities herein described, and all aspects of their operation, shall be subject to all the conditions, provisions, and requirements of this permit and any subsequent Presidential amendment to it. The permittee shall make no substantial change in the Border facilities, in the location of the Border facilities, or in the operation authorized by this permit unless the President has approved the change in an amendment to this permit or in a new permit. Such substantial changes do not include, and the permittee may make, changes to the average daily throughput capacity of the Border facilities to any volume of products that is achievable through the Border facilities, and to the directional flow of any such products. ( printed page 21218) Article 2 . The standards for, and the manner of, operation and maintenance of the Border facilities shall be subject to inspection by the representatives of appropriate Federal, State, and local agencies. Officers and employees of such agencies who are duly authorized and performing their official duties shall be granted free and unrestricted access to the Border facilities by the permittee. The Border facilities, including the operation and maintenance of the Border facilities, shall be subject to all applicable laws and regulations, including pipeline safety laws and regulations issued or administered by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation. The permittee shall obtain requisite permits from relevant State and local governmental entities, and relevant Federal agencies. Article 3 . Upon the termination, revocation, or surrender of this permit, unless otherwise decided by the President, the permittee, at its own expense, shall remove the Border facilities within such time as the President may specify. If the permittee fails to comply with an order to remove, or to take such other appropriate action

How to use this page
This is a source-record entry, not a truth-rating by itself. It preserves the action, date and original government publication so it can be connected to later claims, implementation records, court decisions, costs and measurable outcomes. Editorial claim reviews on this site use separate finding labels and explain the evidence for those findings.
