Carbon Pipelines: all risk and no reward
This video shows the test rupture of CO2 from one mile of an 8 inch carbon pipeline. The pipelines being proposed through South Dakota get as large as 24 inches, with up to twenty miles between cut off valves. Imagine the CO2 cloud that would form in the event of a rupture! South Dakotans say NO to these hazardous pipelines and the tax-schemes that fund them!
Stay informed!

The South Dakota Easement Team is a grass roots organization established for the benefit of landowners affected by proposed Carbon Pipelines in South Dakota. Landowner constitutional and property rights and interests must be protected no matter what actions are taken by Pipeline Companies or State Agencies.
SDET’s number one goal is landowner education around your property rights and how and what to fight for in any easement, the contract determining CO2 pipeline rights to your land and obligations to you, should you be forced to negotiate an easement.
SDET is a landowner-organized and run group designed to help educate and empower other South Dakota landowners to understand the options available to you to protect your land and future. SDET is working closely with a legal team and landowner organizers to build a statewide network of concerned and affected persons to join together as one powerful group.

LANDOWNERS VIRTUAL MEETING
Pipeline expert Paul Blackburn gives an overview of this unproven “carbon capture” technology, and the unsound economics and safety and health risks from these proposed carbon pipelines.
Attorney Brian Jorde with Omaha’s Domina Law Group, gave a presentation on landowners’ rights with respect to eminent domain, and spoke to the advantages of forming a legal “co-op” with other landowners who oppose their land being taken by eminent domain for these projects.
Jane Kleeb, founder of Bold, the lead group that worked to build an alliance of farmers, ranchers and Tribal Nations to stop the Keystone XL pipeline from using eminent domain. The virtual meeting included a Q&A where landowners submitted questions via text message, email, or typed on Zoom that were answered by the panelists.
