Federal dollars. It always gets down to money.[:0]

Hawaii has said it's willing to participate, and in theory, it's better for the environment (to mitigate global warming) by pumping liquified CO2 from, say, an oil-fired electrical generation plant several thousand feet underground, rather than release it into the atmosphere as is the current practise.

I'm sure there are going to be Federal $$, which is one of the reasons why Hawaii was willing to sign up.

Aloha! ;-)
