Sunoco set to take land for pipeline
“Several property owners could lose land from a pipeline company’s use of eminent domain — all because of William Penn and the Duke of York.
Sunoco Logistics Partners LP has notified landowners in several communities that it will try to take land for a pipeline running from Washington County to an export terminal near Philadelphia.
Its partners, primarily Range Resources Corp., plan to export half of the natural gas to Europe. Philadelphia-based Sunoco Logistics filed its first eminent domain claim in Westmoreland County this month — an attempt to compel landowners to allow a pipeline easement on their property in return for a fair-market payment.”
