Enbridge estimates a gas leak on its Line 5 pipeline in Wisconsin will cost $15.1M, with $9.9M for emergency response and $5M for property damage. The leak, caused by a subcontractor's truck, released 1.3M gallons of natural gas liquids. Enbridge has resumed service and is investigating the incident. Environmental advocates and the Bad River Band have called for stronger responses from the state.

Enbridge has formed a $2.7 billion joint venture with KKR and Apollo to fund expansions of its Westcoast natural gas pipeline system. Enbridge will receive $700 million in cash and retain majority control.

Environmentalists and Michigan's governor oppose the project, citing potential environmental risks.
