Oklahoma Constitution; eminent domain; wind energy projects; ballot title; filing.
HJR 1003 proposes adding a new constitutional section to Oklahoma that restricts the use of eminent domain for specific wind and solar energy projects. It prohibits government from taking private land for wind turbine construction or associated transmission lines if the project receives U.S. government financial assistance exceeding 3% of its total cost, or if the transmission lines exclusively serve federally incentivized wind/solar projects. The bill does not affect voluntary land purchases or projects without federal funding or tax incentives. This would directly impact energy developers seeking to build wind/solar infrastructure relying on federal support, while preserving eminent domain for other projects.
