Enbridge Seeks to Rebuild Pipeline 

(DETROIT) -- The pipeline company that faces a proposed $3.7 million fine for the oil spill that dumped more than 800,000 gallons of oil into a Kalamazoo River tributary in 2010 wants to build a new pipeline through Oakland, Macomb and St. Clair counties, the Detroit Free Press reports.

Enbridge Energy has applied to build the pipeline through the Michigan Public Service Commission. The company says it would build the pipeline next to the old one that ruptured, and would deactivate the old one, the paper says.

The National Transportation Safety Board will discuss its report into the investigation of the causes of the 2010 spill on Tuesday.
