Canadian pipeline giant Enbridge has confirmed that it has cleaned up about 60 percent of a nearly 70,000-gallon oil spill from one of its lines in Wisconsin.

An Enbridge employee discovered the spill on Nov. 11 while conducting a visual inspection of Line 6 at the Enbridge Cambridge Station, located west of Milwaukee, according to a federal accident report.
