Good day Mr. Rice,
Hi, I am writing you today with concerns about my mother. She received a call approximately 18 months ago from EQT advising of an acre of ownership and a deal was on the table. She asked the question about the other 25 acres that her mother owned and that was when things went down the wrong path.
I completed a title search and learned about my mother's ownership of the 26 acres of real estate in Pennsylvania that was inherited as a result of her mother passing, my Grandmother. What we have also learned during this process is that current landowners have taken claim to the said real estate.
I have been in communication with representatives of EQT to resolve this matter but haven't gotten anywhere. I personally feel as though the communication has stopped and the interested parties are awaiting my own mother's passing in hopes that this matter goes away.
I have gone down every possible avenue to try to get this resolved before reaching out to you as I know you are a busy man running a huge company. After reading more about you, I feel that you are the one who can help my family. I was so excited when I came across a news article and read that you and your brothers have brought core values to EQT "trust, heart, teamwork and evolution", to "...Do the right thing always" and also to change the perceptions, "One thing that's changed, we care about our landowners, we want to be good partners".
All we are asking, at this moment, is that you lead your associates to complete a due diligence on the referenced land and provide us with a condensed yet full report of its findings. My mother and I are simply looking to get the information or leases that may have been incorrectly prepared to be transferred from landowners to the rightful owner, my mother.
I have all the information needed at my fingertips and would be happy to send you anything you request; however, I did not want to overwhelm your inbox with attachments and facts.
Please, let my mother and I know if this is a feasible request or if we should be taking a different avenue to resolve matters.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Best regards,
R.B
