Yep, and my question from back then (June) still stands:

Bad behavior on the part of “Summit Carbon Solutions”, but my question is why “eminent domain” for a pipeline? Most pipelines are a “right-of-way”/easement issue, i.e. the farmer continues to use the land above the pipeline to farm, with the pipeline company having easement rights for inspections/repairs, etc..

The problem is “the easement rights”.

It would appear they are perpetual.

In reality it allows the pipeline company access right across cropland, for almost any purpose.

Access without permission of the landowner.

I do believe there is significant etc. etc. involved impacting property rights of the farmer.
