Compressor Station

In the standard ROW agreement, does a compressor station need to be named as an unwanted appurtenance, or is the compressor station a separate agreement completely? My land man told me it was separate, I wanted to hear what you guys thought, thanks. The last thing I want is one of those monstrosities.

We had them actually state in our ROW no above ground structures.

Ours is through NiSource.  We haven't signed yet though. Trying to find a time to meet.

Have you brought up with them any annual compensation? I also feel we are getting the run-around with amount of damage costs! They offered my neighbor almost twice as much for less footage and they are going through an open field (that isn't farmed) and they are removing all trees from us.

The problem with "not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed" is in that THEY are the ones who will define the meaning of  "not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed"; they can essentially make that to mean anything thaey want it to mean.

Standard proceedure is to seemingly give the Landowner what they want .... then add a short phrase that essentially negates that concession, giving  the compny the ability to do whatever they might want, whenever they want.

 

All IMHO,

This is what our ROW states:

Grantee agrees that this Agreement does not permit Grantee to install any above ground appurtenances or facilities, except for pipeline location markers and test leads, which, unless otherwise required by law, shall be located near the Property's boundary.

I think that is totally fair.
