On Tuesday, April 29, the Louisiana House Committee on Natural
Resources & Environment held a hearing involving 10 carbon
capture and storage (CCS) bills, beginning at 9 a.m. with only a
midday recess to attend the floor session, where they resumed until
10 p.m. when the hearing finally concluded. Read the descriptions
of each bill heard on The Energy Law Bloghere.
Of the 10 bills heard, SB 73 was the only one to receive a
favorable vote out of committee. HB 75 and HB 568 were deferred and are expected
to be reset for a hearing next week. The remaining bills were voted
down in committee.
Liskow will be monitoring for further updates on these CCS bills
throughout the session on The 2025 Liskow CCS Legislative Update. For
