The deal lacks firm, enforceable protections to ensure the dams will be properly maintained and safely retired when they are no longer economical to operate.
Protecting these natural treasures is a top priority. My brief continues my seven-year fight to stop Enbridge from pumping oil through the Great Lakes.
