PER CURIAM:


This is an appeal by landowners from a condemnation proceeding imposing an easement upon 2,064.60 acres of their land and awarding them just compensation in the amount of $264,690. The applicable facts are stated in our opinion on the prior appeal on this matter. Calhoun v. United States, 5 Cir., 1967, 384 F.2d 180.

We have carefully considered the assignments of error separately and collectively and have concluded that there is no reversible error. We therefore affirm the judgment of the district court.

Affirmed.
