Would have added pipelines transporting carbon dioxide to the State requirements for pipelines carrying hazardous liquids. Would also have required the State Fire Marshal to adopt safety-related regulations governing intrastate pipelines transporting carbon dioxide, as specified, and precluded pipelines from transporting carbon dioxide to or from a carbon capture and sequestration project until those regulations are adopted. Finally, would have added carbon dioxide transportation safety requirements to the unified permit application for the construction and operation of a carbon dioxide capture and sequestration projects. Was not heard in the Assembly Utilities and Energy Committee, at the request of the author.
