Here's the last opportunity to publicly oppose the upgrade of Line 67 (Alberta Clipper) before the MN Utilities Commission Commission makes its decision on August 28. The PUC will convene at 9:30 and consider three other minor matters before turning to the Line 67 upgrade no sooner than 10:30. (It could begin later.) As you can see, the PUC is allowing limited public comment (no more than three minutes). Earlier tonight I wrote my comment, which will be much different than the comment I offered in April (and repeated in an edited version in Superior in May). MN350 is particularly interested in having those folks who signed up to testify in April but were unable to do so register and speak this time around. We won't have the turnout this time that we had in April, so I encourage everyone who is able to attend to do so. Thanks.

This is even more important now that the State Department released documents revealing a scheme by Enbridge to bypass the Presidential Permit process for expansion of its Alberta Clipper tar sands pipeline. Meaning as soon as the MN Public Utilities Commission gives the green light, Enbridge can pump 800,000 barrels of dirty tar sands oil through northern Minnesota. Learn more about Enbridge’s switcheroo scheme here <http://mn350.nationbuilder.com/r?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mn350.org%2Fenbridges-scheme-to-expand-tar-sands%2F&utm_campaign=28aug2014invite&n=1&e=46e5f37c3e6189f152b16c326e5856adfad3e605&utm_source=mn350&utm_medium=email>.
