Land Use & Property Rights
Landowners have used the legal process to stop Keystone XL & got a win this week.
How did landowners win? An Eminent Domain action against various landwoners has been dropped by the pipeline.
Why drop a lawsuit against landowners? Don’t they need to build their pipeline?
Case law under the current eminent process favored landowners through the Nebraska Supreme Court.
Do the pipelines have an alternative course of action? Yes. The Pipeline will try another regulatory route through the Nebraska Public Service Commission to avoid the local land disputes.
