A pipeline to carry carbon dioxide (CO2) from Iowa to North Dakota for deep cavern storage has been proposed. If approved, this pipeline will generate revenue for our state while protecting our atmosphere from increased CO2 levels.

Gradually, facilities are being built in our state to meet this processing need, thereby beginning to address this concern.
