Presidential Permit: Authorizing Bridger Pipeline Expansion LLC to Construct, Connect, Operate, and Maintain Pipeline Facilities at the International Boundary at Phillips County, Montana, Between the United States and Canada
President Donald J. Trump issued a presidential permit allowing Bridger Pipeline Expansion LLC to construct, connect, operate, and maintain a cross-border pipeline facility in Phillips County, Montana, at the U.S.-Canada boundary. The permit covers a 36-inch pipeline segment used to transport crude oil and a wide range of petroleum products between the two countries, while making clear that the project still must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and permits. It also sets conditions for federal inspection and oversight, requires the company to report ownership changes and maintain the facilities safely, and makes the company responsible for cleanup, liabilities, and removal of the border facilities if the permit ends. The action was issued to formally authorize this specific international border pipeline connection under presidential authority.

FRPresidential Determination Pursuant to Section 303 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as Amended, on Grid Infrastructure, Equipment, and Supply Chain Capacity
President Donald Trump issued this determination to treat key electric grid equipment and the supply chains behind it as essential to national defense under Section 303 of the Defense Production Act. The memo says the United States lacks enough domestic capacity to quickly produce items like transformers, transmission components, substations, circuit breakers, electrical steel, and related manufacturing tools, leaving the country too dependent on foreign sources and vulnerable during emergencies. It authorizes the Secretary of Energy to use Defense Production Act powers to make purchases, commitments, and provide financial support to expand U.S. production and deployment of this grid infrastructure. Trump says the action was issued because an aging, constrained grid and weak supply chains threaten defense readiness and fit within the national energy emergency he declared on January 20, 2025.

President Donald Trump issued a presidential permit allowing Enbridge Energy Company to continue operating and maintaining an existing cross-border pipeline segment in St. Clair County, Michigan, where it connects the United States and Canada. The permit covers the existing facilities used to transport crude oil and a range of petroleum products, and it replaces a much older permit issued in 1953. It also sets the terms for how the pipeline must be run, including compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, access for government inspections, and requirements for maintenance, reporting, and permits. The action was issued to formally authorize continued operation of these existing border facilities under updated presidential permit terms.
