Montgomery County board hears comments on state approval for carbon pipeline project
(Red Oak) -- Reactions continue regarding a state board's recent decision to approve a proposed carbon dioxide pipeline. During Tuesday's regular meeting, the Montgomery County Board of Supervisors heard from West Township resident Jan Norris regarding the now newly-named Iowa Utilities Commission's decision last week to approve Summit Carbon Solution's permit application for its Midwest Express CO2 pipeline. The project spans over 680 miles throughout the state, including roughly 18 miles in western Montgomery County, as the line runs toward the Green Plains ethanol plant in Shenandoah. Plans call for carrying liquid CO2 from participating locations to an underground sequestration site in North Dakota. While Summit officials say they have secured roughly 75% of the necessary land through voluntary easements, Norris says the IUC decision gives the company the power of eminent domain on the majority of their requests.

Red Oak council takes no action on fiber project
(Red Oak) -- Despite some concerns over the use of pedestals, Red Oak officials have opted to allow a fiber internet project to continue in the city's right of way. Meeting in regular session Monday night, the Red Oak City Council met with Farmers Mutual Telephone Company CEO Kevin Cabbage to hear an update on the first phase of his company's project that would bring fiber internet to roughly half of Red Oak by the end of the year and to discuss the possible action of temporarily halting the project for utilizing above ground pedestals curbside rather than buried vaults. While they have historically utilized vaults for their projects initiated before the COVID-19 pandemic, Cabbage says price changes over the last four years and the size of the current project in both Red Oak and Clarinda prompted utilizing pedestals.
