The Upper Peninsula Energy Task force met in St. Ignace today to discuss preliminary findings on Line 5 and the Upper Peninsula’s propane supply.
Public Sector Consultants, the firm hired by the state of Michigan, presented ranges of numbers to the task force.
They say if Line 5 was shut down between Superior, Wisconsin and Sarnia, Ontario, it could impact between 65 and 90 percent of the U.P.’s propane supply.
If propane also stopped coming to Superior by pipeline, up to 99 percent of the supply could be impacted.
