§ 119.006. INDEMNIFICATION.

Official statutory text

The University of Texas System, the permanent university fund, and the Texas Board of Criminal Justice may enter into a lease with the commission or with an owner or operator of a clean coal project for the use of lands owned or controlled by the system, the fund, or the board for permanent storage of carbon dioxide captured by a clean coal project, provided that such lease adequately indemnifies the system, the fund, the board, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice against liability for personal injury or property damage incurred by the system, the fund, the board, or the department as a result of the escape or migration of the carbon dioxide after it is injected into a zone or reservoir. This section does not affect the application of Chapter 101, Civil Practice and Remedies Code, to any activity carried out by a governmental unit, as defined by that chapter.
