The Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission has begun planning for the state’s new carbon sequestration program.
The program, approved by state lawmakers and Gov. Mike Dunleavy this year, will eventually see the state license pipelines and injection wells that allow companies to store carbon dioxide deep underground.

Storage programs, already in use by other states, are seen as a way to avert the environmental consequences of fossil fuel use. They’ve exploded in popularity since Congress and President Joe Biden approved significant tax incentives.
In a public notice published Tuesday, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) said it is taking public comments on possible regulations for the state program.
As part of the program, the state will assume regulatory authority over carbon injection wells, taking it from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Under federal law, the state must implement drinking-water protections that are no weaker than those currently used by the EPA.
No specific rules have yet been published, and the agency is collecting the public’s thoughts on what should be included. A public hearing has been scheduled for 10 a.m. on Nov. 7.
The Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) is a quasi-judicial agency that oversees oil and gas drilling, development, and production, as well as the underground injection of gas, oil, and waste fluids to protect the state’s natural resources. For more information, visit their website.
