All carbon dioxide injected into a storage facility for carbon sequestration, and all other substances injected incidental to the injection of carbon dioxide, shall be presumed to be owned by the storage operator. This presumption may be rebutted by an individual claiming contrary ownership by a preponderance of the evidence in an action to establish ownership.

No owner of pore space, other individual holding any right to control pore space, or other surface or subsurface property interest owner, shall have any liability relating to the injection of carbon dioxide, or any other substances injected incidental to the injection of carbon dioxide, for carbon sequestration activities solely by virtue of their interest in the pore space or their surface or subsurface rights.
