Pipeline Detection

Pipeline Markers...

Written agreements or easements between landowners and pipeline companies allow pipeline companies to construct and maintain pipeline rights-of way across privately-owned property.

If you are not aware of pipelines on or near your property, check for pipeline markers posted on your property, along your property and elsewhere in your neighborhood. You may also check your property record at your County Clerk’s office.

Pipeline markers are an important safety precaution. Since pipelines are buried underground, pipeline markers are used to help in their identification Pipeline markers are found where a pipeline intersects a street, highway or railway. Be aware of any pipeline markers in your neighborhood. Write down the natural gas operator’s name and phone number in case of an emergency. While markers are helpful, they provide very limited information.
