Progress Review of STAR Grant Research on Carbon Geosequestration
January 7 - 8, 2013
EPA Headquarters
Presentations

The purpose of this meeting is to share and discuss the progress of the grantees of the Science To Achieve Results (STAR) Research projects designed to further the scientific understanding of the geologic sequestration of carbon dioxide. For GS CO2 to reach the estimated scale needed to significantly contribute as a greenhouse gas mitigation measure, it is critical that GS projects incorporate robust safeguards. This research is needed to investigate how integrating approaches in design, siting, modeling and monitoring of CO2 in the subsurface can provide safe and effective storage, mitigate potential risks, and prevent endangerment of existing and potential sources of drinking water.
