ON WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE COURT OF APPEALS

Finney, Justice:

The issue presented in this appeal is whether the Master-inEquity (“Master”) erred in finding the South Carolina Public Service Authority (hereinafter “Santee Cooper”) was equitably estopped from condemning a portion of Southern Development Land and Golf Company’s (hereinafter “Southern”) land for the construction of a high-voltage electric transmission line. The Court of Appeals reversed the Master on this issue. We reverse the Court of Appeals and affirm the Master’s finding of equitable estoppel.
