Hundreds gather in Watertown to talk CO2 pipeline at PUC meeting Summit Carbon Solutions is trying to soothe concerns over a proposed CO2 pipeline in a series public input meetings. But some are still not convinced by the company’s promises.

So a company who has never built any pipeline claims to be able to build the safest one ever. Glad to see South Dakotans calling Summit out at SD PUC meetings. www.sdpb.org/business-eco... #pipeline #CO2 #carbondioxidepipeline

So the ND PUC receives the plume modeling information, but not the other parties in the case? These are impacted people & they don't even get access to this crucial info? Let alone the general public. Yet another reason why people are mad about Summit's #carbondioxidepipeline #transparency
