What, exactly, do you mean by "taking of land and property"?
Aren't you aware that pipelines are buried underground, then they're covered up -- leaving the land as it was before?
Landowners are paid appropriately for a lease on the underground right-of-way and for any crop which might be destroyed (or remain unplanted) because of the construction process. Then, the land is returned to production.
Happens all the time around here -- in the Barnett shale -- as collection pipelines are laid to new wells. Farmers and ranchers are adequately compensated and, within a year, there's no surface indication of where the line was laid.
Nor are there any complaints...
To dictate the taking of property to persons who don't want their land taken is odd.
