DID YOU KNOW ..
SB 2842 eliminates eminent domain SOLELY for the use of CO2 pipelines?

WILL THIS STOP A CO2 PIPELINE?
No. SB2842 simply forces private companies to negotiate with landowners to minimize harm. Without negotiations, CO2 pipeline routing can:

  • Restrict farmers’ use of their property, destroy field tiles, and reduce yield.
  • Be routed too close to homes, businesses, and schools, placing our families in grave danger if a pipeline leaks or ruptures. 

REMEMBER ... 
CO2 pipelines are NOT like oil and gas. A leak or rupture can release a toxic asphyxiant that can harm—or even kill—people and animals over a mile away.
