Don't surprise me. There is a shitload of pipe being stored at a facility a couple miles north of me on 21.

If you have the time, Google ET Rover Pipeline and there is more there than you would care to read. This one probably the most informative http://www.roverpipelinefacts.com/
And this is where you lose when it gets shut down due to low prices
– Rover Pipeline is expected to generate more than $135 million in ad
valorem tax revenue for Ohio during its first year in operation of which an estimated $91 million will be directed to
more than 36 local school districts

You should have posted this in the Jokes thread lol. Promises, promises, we've heard them all.
I've read all that. I have tons of paperwork here that they sent us because our land was close to where they want to come through. They wanted to come on our land and do testing, I respectfully declined.

You might not be buying the land but a pipeline is a huge pain in the butt for generations. There is an Edison high tension line that makes a very pronounced detour around my farm because my dad wouldn't let them come through. I'm very greatful I don't have to farm around 6-7 poles running diagonally across the farm.
I agree with this in regards to aerial electric. However pipelines buried 48" or deeper don't pose the same inconvenience. Assuming a properly worded contract of course...
I've seen multiple pipeline projects from conception to construction to Reclamation to final completion.. it's ugly during the process but once it's done there is no reason it would be "a pain in the butt for generations" ,,,,,, maybe you can explain why it is or would be
And for you guys worried about it cutting down your favorite oak / acorn producing tree... a pipeline easement can provide more forage, nutrition, edge cover, and sustainability for wildlife than any of those acorn producers. ..... not to mention great stand locations :smiley_bril:
The archery park we put in has a Canadian pipeline running through it and you ain't going to be driving no farming equipment across it. We were only allowed to drive a track skid steer across it. They fly it once a week checking it also.
So do B&C bucks. Noble County produced some absolute monsters this year and a large percentage of them were killed on edges created by well pads and pipelines. My buddy works for Antero and he knows of at least 5 170+ bucks killed on new edges that they created. One of the biggest impacted properties I've ever dealt on in WV had 5K of 100' right of way cut through the heart of it. I worked hard for that contract because the guy was worried about how it would impact their hunting. We cut it all in 2011 and I had a chance to visit him a couple months ago. He said the deer and turkey hunting has never been better. Bigger animals across the board. We took desolate land and planted an 11.50 acre clover food plot. He's since planted corn and beans on some of it.
When done right, the "aftermath" of oil field operations are almost always an improvement.

Again, I dont understand, We do pipeline easement through agriculture fields all the time.. And it continues to get worked by some pretty big farm equipment.
Killed my biggest bird on a gas line. Killed my biggest buck right off the edge of a gas line also.
Really? I almost spit out my coffee on that one!!! Guess you do not realize how much they give back to the community and land owners!! Hell Range Resources made Washington Co., PA. If you don't care of us then you should give up anything with plastic in it and go to heating your home with a wood burner.
Oh and the low income families in Washington Co., PA got to save their farms and land thanks to Range.

I think the idea of pipelines is different depending on the properties layout. I was approached for a pipeline through my property that was slated to be 60' wide (70' work space) and run almost 1700' in length. I stood to make a pretty good chunk of cash from it. I flatly refused due to my property only being 316' in width and being all wooded. If I had owned a lot more frontage or my land was fields/pastures I'd agreed to it with no problem. The pipelines are all over down by my place. The ones that went through field and pastures aren't even noticeable after a couple years. But, a swath through timber will remain a swath for many, many years to come.
