The Uinta-Piceance Basin Carbon Management and Community Engagement Partnership plans to accelerate the equitable and environmentally responsible deployment and development of a storage-based carbon management industry in the Uinta- Piceance Basin in eastern Utah and western Colorado by establishing a partnership with extensive technical, managerial, regulatory, and business expertise specific to carbon transport and storage. The project team will collect and analyze existing data from all available sources to comprehensively evaluate the geologic carbon dioxide storage capacity and potential in the Uinta- Piceance Basin with advanced toolsets. Major activities include partnership development, data gathering, carbon management deployment strategy optimization by considering the unique opportunities and challenges in the Basin, data sharing, technical assistance to community stakeholders, and education resources development for the next generation workforce.
