A jury on Friday ordered Mountain Valley to pay the Chandlers $430,000.
After hearing four days of testimony, the jury settled on the figure as âjust compensationâ for an 8.6-acre easement the company took in 2018, using its power of eminent domain to force a sale when the owners resisted.
Currently under construction, the 42-inch diameter natural gas pipeline bisects the Chandlersâ 111-acre property, passing about 500 feet from their custom-built home.
âThereâs a huge gap that cuts through the heart of their land, 125 feet wide and half a mile long,â Stephen Clarke, the Chandlersâ attorney, said during the first trial to decide just compensation for the owners of one of nearly 300 parcels condemned by Mountain Valley.
WASHINGTON: Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm says the nation is “over the hump” on gas shortages following a ransomware cyberattack that forced a shutdown of the nation’s largest gasoline pipeline.
Problems peaked Thursday night, and service should return to normal in most areas by the end of the weekend, Granholm said Friday in an interview with The Associated Press.
“The good news is that . gas station outages are down about 12 percent from the peak” as of Friday afternoon, with about 200 stations returning to service every hour, she said. “It’s still going to work its way through the system over the next few days, but we should be back to normal fairly soon.
