Six Michigan tribes have withdrawn from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' review of Enbridge Energy’s Line 5 tunnel project, citing concerns that a Trump-era executive order will fast-track approval. The tribes accuse the Corps of disregarding its obligations under the National Environmental Policy Act and failing to engage in meaningful consultation. The proposed tunnel would relocate part of the pipeline under the Straits of Mackinac, raising environmental and sovereignty concerns.
