AMERICAN CARBON ALLIANCE RESPONDS TO SO. DAKOTA'S LEGISLATION RESTRICTING PIPELINES
Mar. 7, 2025

URBANDALE, Iowa - The American Carbon Alliance (ACA) expressed disappointment today over South Dakota Governor Larry Rhoden's decision to sign HB 1052 into law, restricting eminent domain for carbon pipelines.
"This ill-advised legislation comes at a time when South Dakota farmers and ethanol producers desperately need new markets to restore profitability," said Tom Buis, CEO of the American Carbon Alliance. "Instead of supporting economic growth, this decision creates unnecessary roadblocks and sends the wrong message to agriculture and rural communities."
Buis emphasized the lost opportunity for South Dakota to capitalize on growing markets for low-carbon biofuels, including sustainable aviation fuel. "Other states are moving forward, and it's unfortunate to see South Dakota take a step back," he said.
