National Geological Carbon Capture Program Can Help Develop Cleaner Energy, Reduce Greenhouse Gases

by on

News release: “Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar today sent Congress his recommendations for a national program to help reduce greenhouse gases by selecting appropriate underground geological formations on public lands to inject and store carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fired power plants and other carbon-dioxide producing facilities.”

  • “The Interior report to Congress, Framework for Geological Sequestration on Public Land…fulfills the requirements of Section 714 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, also examines existing authorities under the Mineral Leasing Act and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act that could be used to permit carbon sequestration activities.”
