Make carbon dioxide great again-no net zero.25LSO-0500, 1.0
SF0092
FISCAL NOTE
The fiscal impact is indeterminable.
The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) indicated this legislation would
impact Wyoming’s air quality primacy and Wyoming facilities may need to obtain
permits from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for carbon dioxide and from
DEQ for other constituents. In addition, DEQ reports this legislation would end
DEQ’s role with underground injection control (UIC) permitting for carbon capture
and sequestration projects in Wyoming and that role would go to the EPA.
