  • Minnesota House of Representatives Minnesota State Senate
    Minnesota Minnesota House of State Representatives Senate Commissioner Laura Bishop Minnesota Pollution Control Agency 520 Lafayette Road North St. Paul, MN 55155-4194 Via email: [email protected] July 29, 2020 Dear Ms. Bishop, We write as members of the House and Senate Climate Action caucuses to request that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (PCA) deny issuance of the agency's 401 Water Quality Certification for the proposed Enbridge Line 3 Pipeline expansion. The water quality certification would directly counteract many of the initiatives and goals the PCA has adopted. Denying this certification is not only possible, it is the only acceptable outcome for this project. I. The construction and operation of the Line 3 expansion will unacceptably degrade Minnesota’s waters and wetlands. 1. This Line 3 expansion cannot meet Minnesota’s water quality standards. Nearly half of the proposed 340-mile pipeline route through Minnesota will be along a new corridor. The pipeline will make 227 crossings of our state’s most pristine waters and wild rice beds, and impact over 11,000 acres of wetlands. Tar sands oil is unique in comparison to other forms of crude. It sinks in water, making it virtually impossible to entirely remove once leaked. But even if the pipeline never leaks, the very construction and operation of the pipeline will unacceptably degrade Minnesota’s best waters. The Preliminary Anti-Degradation Determination for 401 Certification prepared by the PCA finds that degradation of Minnesota’s high quality waters is “unavoidable”, will create “physical alteration to surface waters,” and will create “functional loss to streams...resulting from open trench crossing methods and permanent impacts to riparian buffers”.
