A pipeline easement is a legal agreement that gives rights to the pipeline owner (Firstgas) to access someone else’s land for the purposes of carrying out work related to the pipeline.
The easement terms also outline any restrictions on the easement area. Unless it is an urgent or emergency situation, we will notify the owner of land that is subject to an easement before any Firstgas staff or contractors enter the property.
If you would like to see where your pipeline runs on your property we can provide you with a map of the property showing an aerial image and the location of the easement corridor.
You can call us anytime you want to carry out any work in the easement area so we can ensure that neither you or the pipeline are at risk as a result.
