Pipeline Easement or Right-of-Way Agreement (collectively called "Easement Agreement") - Pipeline Easement or Right-of-Way Agreement (collectively called "Easement Agreement") - The property owner has forfeited certain rights of ownership in exchange for compensation so that a pipeline may be installed underground on or through the property. Typically compensation is a one time event and only to the property owner at the time the pipeline is installed. Forfeited rights impact a portion of the property for some purposes and the entire property for other purposes such as during an emergency. High-pressure transmission gas pipelines are used to transport gas over long distances at very high pressure, linking sources of gas supply with local gas distribution networks. If a gas pipeline easement is registered on your property title there are conditions associated with the easement including what you can and cannot do in the pipeline corridor area. This will include the requirement to seek prior written approval from APA for activities within the corridor such as: * replacing or installing fencing* any earthworks* land leveling or contouring* landscaping and planting trees* storing material or erecting structures* use of explosives* use of vibrating machinery* transporting heavy machinery or loads The presence of a high pressure gas line under a property and the easement that goes along with it does negatively impact the property value. Considering the fair market value of a property without such an easement, the impacted property should be appraised below that fair market value. This is because the initial compensation was to the property owner at the time the line was installed. Potential buyers receive the compensation as it is passed down in the form of reduced land price, in other words, they get the property for less than market value because the original compensation is for the initial reduction in property value due to the easement and pipeline.Kinder Morgan can decide to use the easement to bury additional pipelines under your property. You may get another pipeline, and meanwhile the pipeline company will claim rights over local governments and developments. You don’t even know the same pipeline company might not end up putting another pipeline on the same easement.[http://wiki.robotz.com/index.php/Pipeline_Easement Kinder Morgan] can decide to use the easement to bury additional pipelines under your property.
