A small part of the Line 5 pipeline, which delivers oil from Superior through northern Wisconsin and Michigan to the Canadian border flows through the Bad River Indian Reservation. In 2019, the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa requested Enbridge remove Line 5 from their land. The pipeline is still in use and now a judge is warning that it might burst. In November, a federal judge ruled that the Bad River Tribe and Enbridge need to come together to make a plan to avoid a possible catastrophic rupture to the line. The Tribe and Enbridge have until December 17 to come to a joint agreement. If not, the federal ruling gives both parties time until December 24 to submit separate plans.
