- HB 6 Authorizes the governing authority of Rapides Parish to determine whether carbon dioxide sequestration and pipelines transporting carbon dioxide may be permitted within the parish
- HB 7 Enacts the Louisiana Landowners Protection Act, which repeals the CCS unitization statute and removes expropriation authority for CCS projects and carbon dioxide pipelines.
