In Michigan, we love our lakes, guard our paychecks, and work hard at our jobs.

The new, high-tech, Great Lakes Tunnel planned for deep below the Mackinac Straits protects all three.

WHAT’S AT STAKE?

The Great Lakes are more than a natural resource.  They’re Michigan’s way of life.  Our state’s identity, our traditions, and our jobs depend on healthy Great Lakes, and we fight to defend them. 

The Great Lakes Tunnel protects the Great lakes, taking the Line 5 oil and gas pipeline out of the water and burying it 100 feet under the lakebed.  According to a state study, buried that deep, the risk of an oil spill is virtually zero, while the lakebed, fish, and wildlife remain completely protected and undisturbed.

The Great Lakes Tunnel supports Michigan jobs – jobs building the tunnel, jobs “up North,” and jobs across the Lower Peninsula that depend on clean lakes and the affordable fuel the tunnel will deliver.

The Great Lakes Tunnel protects people’s paychecks.  Funded 100% through private sources – without a single tax dollar – according to economic experts, the Great Lakes Tunnel will prevent energy shortages, double-digit oil and gas price increases, and dramatic spikes in Michigan residents’ cost to heat their homes.
