CO2 PIPELINES-EMINENT DOMAIN

Summary

The bill changes Illinois law so that owners or operators of carbon‑dioxide pipelines that have received a certificate from the Illinois Commerce Commission cannot seek or exercise eminent‑domain power to take easements or property. It amends both the Public Utilities Act and the Carbon Dioxide Transportation and Sequestration Act to remove any authority for pipeline projects to condemn land. The change impacts future CO2 pipeline projects and protects landowners along proposed routes.
