Natural Gas Pipeline Easements
Natural gas pipelines range from large interstate transmission lines to small local distribution pipes. The type of pipeline determines the easement width, federal vs. state oversight, and the restrictions on how you use your land.
Transmission Pipelines
Large-diameter, high-pressure interstate and intrastate lines. Wide easements, FERC oversight, strict construction restrictions.
Distribution Pipelines
Smaller, lower-pressure local lines that bring gas to homes and businesses. Narrower easements, state-regulated, less complex.
