"Legal Battles Over Land Rights, Pipelines Are On The Rise" [1]

"At Margaret O'Keefe's farm in East Texas, they grow high-quality Bermuda grass. The fields are flat and vibrant green, surrounded by woods of a darker, richer green. The family loves this land. O'Keefe inherited it from her mother, who divided it among eight children."



"'She used to call it 'enchanted valley,' O'Keefe says.

But her 'enchanted valley' also lies in the path of the Crosstex NGL Pipeline."
