California Statutes

(a)

(1) An interstate pipeline subject to

Part 195 (commencing with

Section 195.0) of Title of the Code of Federal Regulations shall be used to transport carbon dioxide to or from a carbon dioxide capture, removal, or sequestration project only after the federal Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration has concluded the rulemaking (RIN 2137-AF60) regarding minimum federal safety standards for transportation of carbon dioxide by pipeline (Parts to 199, inclusive, of Title of the Code of Federal Regulations) and the carbon dioxide capture, removal, or sequestration project operator demonstrates that the pipeline meets those standards.

(2) A pipeline, as defined in

Section 51010.5 of the Government Code, shall be used to transport carbon dioxide to or from a carbon dioxide capture, removal, or sequestration project only after the State Fire Marshal adopts regulations pursuant to

The recommended framework shall be designed to minimize risk to public health and environmental health and safety, to the extent feasible.
