Hello Mark,
I forgot to take the Cc: or Bcc: above lines, the email I sent, got rejected. Check out the web sites listed as: CO2 Capture and Storage CO2 Basin Electric Power Cooperative CO2 Capture and Storage - Dakota And there are many others webs sites on the same web page.

Can you give me some references where I might find more information about this plant, like their permit to operate or PSD permit (this is an attainment area, right?)? This sounds kinda like the perpetual motion machine equivalent in the air quality field, but I'm always open to hearing about new things.
