- Carbon sequestration might expand in Cameron Parish
Gulf Coast Sequestration seeks a permit to inject 19 million metric tons of CO2 into two wells in Cameron Parish over 30 years, with public support and opposition highlighting economic benefits versus environmental and transparency concerns. The project would create 300 temporary jobs and seven permanent roles but faces criticism over CO2 source uncertainty and potential risks like leaks and water contamination.
