News highlights gathered by Industrial Info and IIR Energy (Sugar Land, Texas) dealing with the energy markets.

PIPELINES
U.S. Appeals Court Rejects New Challenge to Mountain Valley Pipeline - A federal appeals court has for the second time rejected a challenge by property owners to the Mountain Valley natural gas pipeline's use of eminent domain, finding that a federal law bars the case despite a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling that made it easier to sue federal agencies. In a unanimous, unsigned opinion on Tuesday, a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit agreed with a district court's ruling that it could not hear the owners' lawsuit against the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the pipeline developers, because it was brought after the D.C. Circuit had taken up an appeal from a separate administrative challenge over the same issue.
