A discussion of the proposed permanent storage of millions of tons of carbon dioxide approximately one mile deep under Lake Decatur will take place on Monday, January 12 at 5:30 PM on the 1st floor Madden Auditorium of the Decatur Public Library.  The forum will include a discussion of Decatur’s easement with ADM to sequester CO2 under the lake, and the potential infrastructure Decatur would need to invest in to accommodate additional carbon sequestration activities.  The public is invited to share their views on proposed carbon sequestration activities.  The forum is part of the “Council Connections” series which provides an opportunity for discussion of critical issues impacting residents.  Two Decatur City Council members alternate hosting the public forums.
