TOPEKA, Kan. (RFD-TV) — North Dakota’s carbon capture industry is facing new legal uncertainty following a recent court ruling involving property rights and carbon capture projects. The decision sided with landowners, raising questions about how future projects could move forward.

He also discussed the potential implications of the ruling for carbon capture development in North Dakota, particularly regarding landowner rights and project planning.
While the case was specific to North Dakota, McEowen addressed whether the decision could have broader implications and possibly influence how similar cases are handled in other states.
