NE TX Landowner's Battle Against Pipeline Back In Court (Longview News-Journal, 08.10.12)

http://www.news-journal.com/news/local/northeast-texas-landowner-s-...

 

"In March, the 6th Circuit Court of appeals in Texarkana rescinded the restraining order granted to Crawford to prevent TransCanada from routing its pipeline across her farm, which has been owned by her family since 1948.

Many expect that today’s hearing will be the end of the legal fight that began for Crawford in August 2011 when her family refused to sign the final easement notice provided by TransCanada requesting to buy the land.

'She got a different lawyer. This is a done deal tomorrow, this is going to happen,' Radillo said.

A TransCanada spokesman said the company, with more than 60 years of service in North America, feels confident it would prove its case at the hearing.

'This issue has been going on for several months... and we believe all the claims being made by Ms. Crawford are without merit,' said TransCanada spokesman Terry Cunha. 'We are doing what we are allowed to by U.S. law.' "

 

Anyone heard the outcome?

No ruling yet.  I don't think they will win.  Transcanada has 200+ trackhoes ready to kick off..

Does this pipeline involve Panola County in Carthage?

Thanks.

JM - not directly - Its a north/south line and I think will be going down through Smith and Cherokee county, to the west.  

However, it may influence the price paid for oil generated in East Texas and/or the Panola County area.  

Ok Thanks.
Will the pipeline improve production levels of oil in East Texas and prices?
