Eminent Domain and Carbon Pipelines

What’s happening? There’s a proposed carbon pipeline in the midwest. It’s got the attention of Legislatures to see whether the use of eminent domain should be permitted.

Why is this important? Federal authority for pipelines has never extended eminent domain use for a carbon pipeline.

How will this be important? Will states clarify that carbon pipelines can be built within their boundaries with the use of eminent domain?
