Geologic sequestration-unitization amendments.

HB 32 updates Wyoming's rules for storing carbon dioxide underground (geologic sequestration). It specifically adds "pore space utilization" as a purpose for unitizing underground storage rights, clarifies definitions like "unit area" (the underground space being used), and requires applicants to detail how they'll share economic benefits with landowners whose pore space is pooled. The bill changes permit requirements to ensure applicants have legal rights to use surface land and storage space, and streamlines the process for creating unitization agreements that combine multiple landowners' rights. This directly affects landowners with underground rights, carbon storage companies, and the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, which reviews unitization applications.
