- recommend a constitutional amendment creating a “quick take” provision so that if 85 percent of easements have been obtained, the operator may obtain immediate access to the remaining non-consenting landowners’ property
The provision is part of the a bill addressing the flaring issue in the Bakken. I'm being told that "eminent domain" is a non-starter on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation (as in "not lawful") and that's where the majority of the flaring problem resides in the North Dakota Bakken.
I like the "quick take" verbiage. That will get someone's attention. LOL. Starting to sound like Chicago politics.
