Enbridge Energy Partners LP will be allowed to restart a key oil pipeline supplying the U.S. Midwest by the end of the week, following the repair of a rupture, a federal official said.

Enbridge has already submitted a restart plan, said Carl Griffis, Chicago-area senior engineer from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, who was on the scene of the leak in Romeoville, Illinois. The government doesn’t see any “systemic problems” with the pipeline, Griffis said in an interview.
