The SD Public Utilities Commission sets six public input meetings on Summit Carbon Solution’s reapplication to construct a carbon dioxide pipeline in the state.
The project aims to capture carbon from the air and sequester it underground in North Dakota. Summit’s first application with the PUC was denied.
The public input meetings are scheduled between Jan.15-17 at locations in the eastern part of the state near the proposed pipeline route.
According to the PUC, Summit will offer a brief description of the project at each meeting before an open session for residents to share their comments or questions.
