ENERGY: Provides relative to the Carbon Dioxide Geologic Storage Trust Fund (OR INCREASE SD RV See Note)

This bill establishes a fee system for carbon dioxide storage facilities in Louisiana to fund safety and protection programs. It requires operators to pay fees based on the amount of carbon dioxide injected, with the money going into a special trust fund and a community safety account. Once a facility contributes five million dollars or an operator contributes ten million dollars total, fee collection pauses until funds are actually spent on safety projects. The bill creates specific rules for how the money is collected, invested, and used, while also defining terms like "excess fee" for amounts collected beyond the required trust fund deposit.
