A private company seeking to build a pipeline carrying crude oil from Albany, NY, to Linden, N.J, is threatening homeowners that their property might be acquired via eminent domain unless they allow its inspectors access to their land, according to environmentalists.

The Eastern Environmental Law Clinic, representing the New Jersey Sierra Club, sent a letter to the law firm representing the company, Pilgrim Pipelines Holding LLC, saying the assertions are factually wrong and to desist from making the claims.

"The goals of these wrongful legal and factual claims are to falsely induce homeowners to sign away their property rights and chill the opposition to the Pilgrim Pipeline,'' wrote Aaron Kleinbaum, an attorney for the clinic in a letter to DeCotiis, Fitzpatrick & Cole, LLP.

My town, Berkeley Heights is on its path -- We have a Town Hall meeting on 17th - we are hoping to pass a resolution to prevent these bastards from entering our property to conduct surveys.

What else can we do to stop/slow these guys down?
