Local Lawmaker Offers Update on Sequestration Under Mahomet Aquifer

Carbon dioxide sequestration under the Mahomet Aquifer is the latest issue to embroil the primary drinking source for nearly a million central Illinoisans.

 

State Sen. Chapin Rose says the idea of carbon dioxide sequestration is too much of an unknown to jeopardize the Mahomet Aquifer.

 
 
 

The Mahomet Republican says the event where the Governor signed the sequestration legislation into law later revealed the ADM site leaked his signing.

 
 
 

Sen. Rose says it remains to be seen how the Trump administration will hand carbon sequestration but in the meantime, there are several plans for pipelines to central Illinois for the storage of carbon.
