Enbridge outlines $1.4 billion worst-case scenario spill on proposed pipeline

A worst-case oil spill on Enbridge's planned new oil pipeline across northern Minnesota would cost an estimated $1.4 billion, a little more than the price of the company's mammoth spill in Michigan eight years ago.

Enbridge was required to come up with the worst-case scenario by the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission (PUC), which conditionally approved the company's new Line 3 pipeline in June.
