In today's Federal Register, U.S. Department of State published
a notice about a Presidential Permit to expand the Endbridge
Pipeline (formerly known as Alberta Clipper pipeline) which is 
designed to bring heavy sour crude from tar sands production
from Hardisty, Alberta to Superior, WI and to approach, eventually, 
830,000 barrels per day transport -- the same size as the 
Keystone XL pipeline. The Alberta Clipper pipeline was 
previously completed in 2010, but was authorized at lower transport
rates.

I previously circulated a news story that addressed plans to 
construct a marine shipping terminal for petroleum in Superior, WI
to increase shipping of petroleum on the Great Lakes. I think 
it is a fair statement that this proposed pipeline expansion will 
be integral to those plans to increase petroleum shipments from Superior, WI
