A great breadth of information has been published addressing the environmental and ecological impacts of terrestrial and geological sequestration, the need for a regulatory framework to deal with these issues, and the tools and knowledge available and yet needed for ensuring safe and effective storage of CO2. This report provides an overview of the current literature and guidance for the development of future projects in the Plains CO2 Reduction (PCOR) Partnership region. The topics covered in this report include environmental, health, and safety risks posed by terrestrial and geological CO2 sequestration activities; measurement, monitoring, mitigation, and verification techniques and requirements; and the applicability of the current regulatory framework for carbon capture and geological storage.
