Fwd: Stop the Alberta Clipper on Aug 28 -- Last Local Opportunity
From: Scott Jackson (sjackzen46gmail.com)

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.

Hello Friends,

Minnesotans have one final local opportunity to stand in opposition to more
tar sands in MN on Thursday, August 28 in front of the MN Public Utilities
Commission, before they make their final decision regarding Enbridge’s
Alberta Clipper expansion project.

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
