It looks like Iowa DNR - at best - was negligent in reviewing permitting for the water usage of the proposed carbon capture pipeline.

There's certainly something to be said for how this somehow just keeps happening to things on the orbit of ethanol and corn.

Just look at how they handle the farmland. Iowa has some of the most fertile soil on earth and what do they do with it? Build stripmalls and suburbs on it.

Iowa leaders view the resources they have as infinite and that they deserve every last drop.
