EDMONTON — Calgary-based pipeline giant Enbridge says it has cleaned up about 60 per cent of a nearly 265,000-litre oil spill in Wisconsin that was discovered last month.
Enbridge says the spill was discovered by an employee conducting a visual inspection of its Line 6 at the Enbridge Cambridge Station, west of Milwaukee, on Nov. 11.
Enbridge spokesperson Juli Kellner says state and federal regulators were immediately notified after the spill was discovered.Enbridge has recovered about 60 per cent of the spill by excavating within the pump station itself."We are working with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources as cleanup and restoration proceed."
Last week, the tribe filed a lawsuit in Ashland County asking a judge to reverse state construction permits.
