The post reproduced Sandy Bartels’s appeal for public comments by August 4 concerning the state’s authority over an easement associated with Enbridge Line 5 and directed readers to Oil & Water Don’t Mix. It documents advocacy and a stated comment deadline; it does not independently verify the legal claims or technical pipeline risks.
