Tioga County Landowners Win UGI Takings Case at PA Supreme Court

Back in June, MDN told you about a long-running lawsuit in Tioga County, PA by landowners who claim that UGI has taken their mineral rights as part of operating the Meeker Storage Field, an underground natural gas storage facility (see Tioga County Landowners Appeal UGI Takings Case to PA Supremes). The landowners lost the lawsuit in the Court of Common Pleas of Tioga County (trial court) in March 2019. The landowners appealed to Commonwealth Court and lost there too, in November 2020. The landowners appealed again, to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. On Monday, Nov. 29, the Supremes ruled in favor of the landowners. It pays to be persistent!
