The lawsuits have already started for the Enbridge oil spill into the Kalamazoo River late last month.  The Battle Creek Enquirer is reporting that a second class action has been filed accusing Enbridge of various tort claims, including trespass and negligence.  And the Detroit Free Press is reporting that the Great Lakes Environmental Law Center, a group of environmental lawyers based in Detroit, has sent to Enbridge the 60-day notice required before filing suit under the Clean Water Act's citizen suit provisions.
