Senate Bill 34 (Carbon Capture and Storage Act of 2013), which would close certain key legal gaps that hinder carbon capture and storage in California, lost its sponsor late last week when Senator Rubio (D – East Bakersfield) suddenly resigned.  Earlier this week the Senate Environmental Quality Committee decided to postpone its hearing on SB-34.
