“The company seeking a state permit to build a carbon dioxide pipeline through eastern South Dakota hasn’t yet filed a final route plan. And that’s raised uncertainty for landowners along it who aren’t sure whether their properties are within the 10 miles distance that would allow them to intervene,” KELO reports. “…Omaha, Nebraska, lawyer Brian Jorde represents many of the landowners along the route. Jorde filed a motion Thursday calling for the commission to keep the period open for landowners to intervene for 60 days after the commission receives the final map. “We simply have no idea of what’s being permitted or what the request is,” Jorde told the commission. “The starting point is, what’s the route? We don’t know.”

KELO: McPherson County says temporary no to CO2 pipelines
By Rae Yost, 2/1/22
“For now, McPherson County does not want any pipeline carrying hazardous material to be built in the county. Sid Feickert, a county commissioner, said the county’s planning and zoning board and county commission board in January both approved a moratorium on pipelines carrying hazardous material. While Feickert said that would include oil and other materials, the moratorium was passed as a developer plans to build a carbon dioxide pipeline in the county.”
