Yes, I would be big-time concerned too.  But...

I understand you don't want them, but you knew the easement was there, who
owned it, and that it might get used.  You purchased the house anyway (you
weighed the risks and decided the house was worth it).  Why do you think you
should be able to stop them?

Again, I understand not wanting the lines put in, but they were there first
(the easment was probably in place before any of the houses were even built).
Why should they not be allowed to use the easement (within it's conditions)?
