CO2 pipeline bill has ethanol group up in arms

A bill in the Iowa House would restrict the use of eminent domain to acquire land for carbon pipeline projects.

House File 368 would require CO2 pipeline companies to gain 90% approval from landowners, and acquire all pipeline construction and zoning permits from the other states the project will be constructed in before being granted eminent domain.

Monte Shaw, executive director of the Iowa Renewable Fuels Association, says his group opposes the legislation.
