Q: |
B. Can an energy company legally take my land to construct its natural gas or hydropower project? |
A: |
Yes, but only if the energy company has a certificate or license issued by FERC and has gone through a court of law. The certificate or license gives the energy company the right of eminent domain. However, FERC encourages companies and landowners to negotiate easements to avoid going to Court.
