(Iowa) -- A company that had filed a petition for a hazardous liquid pipeline permit across four Iowa counties is reassessing the project proposal.
Wolf Carbon Solutions has withdrawn the petition it filed with the Iowa Utilities Commission earlier this year. The project proposed building a 95 mile pipeline through Linn, Cedar, Clinton, and Scott counties that would transport carbon dioxide. The project would have had to have approval by both the Iowa Utilities Commission and the Illinois Commerce Commission.
The company says it decided to withdraw its petition based on regulations and delays, but Wolf Carbon Solutions says it will reassess the project and may reapply in the future.
