Carbon Pipeline Project Cancelled

A carbon dioxide pipeline that would have crisscrossed northwest Iowa has been cancelled.

Officials with Navigator CO2 say the development of the Heartland Greenway pipeline project has been “challenging,” and that given the “unpredictable nature of the regulatory and government processes involved, particularly in South Dakota and Iowa, the Company has decided to cancel its pipeline project.”

Matt Vining, CEO of Navigator CO2 says, Navigator is a good steward of capital and responsible managers of people, they made the difficult decision to cancel the Heartland Greenway project. Vining says he is disappointed that the company will not be able to provide services to their customers as they had hoped and is thankful to all the stakeholders in the project saying the team maintained a high level of integrity and a safety-first approach.

Navigator’s pipelines would have entered the area near Hartley from both the northeast and southeast, with one leg heading southwest toward the Sioux City area and into Nebraska, missing the southwest corner of Sioux County, and one heading northwest through Lyon County and into South Dakota..
