Louisiana Court Rules Bayou Bridge Pipeline Tramples Rights of Landowners

HeadlineJul 21, 2020

In Louisiana, an appeals court ruled the Bayou Bridge Pipeline Company “trampled” the rights of landowners by starting construction of the highly contested pipeline without the permission of the landowners. The 163-mile Bayou Bridge Pipeline is being built by Phillips 66 and Energy Transfer Partners, which earlier this month was ordered to shut down the Dakota Access Pipeline in North Dakota, pending an environmental review.
