Summary/Abstract

The first section of this article provides an overview of the legal aspects and issues arising from CCS, an interdisciplinary problem of increased importance as pilot projects proceed to develop this emerging industry. The second section contains an annotated bibliography of selected scholarly articles, followed by an unannotated bibliography of significant governmental and non-governmental reports. Most of the articles included in this selected bibliography discuss the relevant technical processes and locations for sequestration or storage as part of their background information. Despite the limited number of specific laws, regulations, and policies directly related to CCS processes, CCS developers are assisted by decades of natural gas injection and storage experience in the oil and gas industry. Many of the authors draw parallels or provide examples for other industries from the petroleum sector.
