MARSHALL (AP) -- A company responsible for a 2010 pipeline rupture than spilled more than 800,000 gallons of oil into a southwestern Michigan river has refused to pay $800,000 to complete two new studies to assess the spill's damage.

The National Resource Damage Assessment wants Enbridge Inc. to participate in the studies.

Enbridge notified the group last year that it was declining to cooperate because it felt that adequate data had already been collected.
