Nebraska LB916 sets requirements for carbon dioxide transport pipelines and modifies eminent domain provisions.
Nebraska LB916 amends the Nebraska Geologic Storage of Carbon Dioxide Act, establishing criteria for the Nebraska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission to approve carbon dioxide transport pipelines. The bill mandates that the commission find the pipeline operationally safe, non-taxpayer funded, and beneficial to Nebraska. It also requires consent from at least 60% of reservoir estate owners before a permit is issued. If not all owners consent, the commission cannot issue a permit.
