Plymouth County Becomes Third Northwest Iowa County To Oppose Eminent Domain For CO2 Pipelines

Northwest Iowa — The Plymouth County Board of Supervisors is joining at least two other northwest Iowa counties in requesting that the Iowa Utilities Board deny the use of eminent domain for two proposed carbon-dioxide pipelines.

Plymouth County Supervisors Chairman, Don Kass, explains the supervisors’ position.

Kass says the letter addresses both proposed pipelines, Summit CO2 Solutions, and Navigator Ventures Heartland Greenway Systems which will run through Plymouth County. Kass says the supervisors feel there are good uses for eminent domain.

He says electric lines and natural gas pipelines are another example of something that is needed to serve everyone. Kass says the CO2 pipelines are not the same thing.

O’Brien and Dickinson Counties here in our area would also have one of the proposed pipelines running through them and have made the same request to the Iowa Utilities Board. Kass says his discussions with other counties indicate they may do the same.
