This bill requires Michigan's Department of Health and Human Services to develop and provide free training on responding to carbon dioxide releases from capture, pipeline, or sequestration projects. The training covers identifying leaks, communication procedures, evacuation protocols, and medical treatment for exposure, and must be made available to disaster relief forces, project operators, healthcare facilities, and first responders. The legislation also creates a state fund to support the training program and grants for local governments and emergency response equipment related to carbon dioxide safety. The bill only takes effect if five other related bills are also enacted into law.
