Eclipse has a proposed well-pad in Londondery township. Corner of Pennyroyal and Penrose (Penrose closest to Fairview--it takes a jog down the road.)

What about Mark West running gathering lines for the purposed wells to be drilled. Have heard of them wanting to be able to install up to 5 lines up to 24 inches in diameter. What are people getting in the way of compensation for the first line and how much for the others? Can they assign the right of way to another company?

Robert, I can tell you of what I know, and one of those things I know for a fact is a non-disclosure statement in the agreement.  For five years, anyway: those signing cannot tell others of the details (I was not a signer and did not get the info by being "told" by those that did sign.  Just the same, I don't feel I should openly discuss the prices.)  I do know the attorney used: Greg Watts of Krugliak, Wilkins, Griffiths & Dougherty (out of Canton/Akron), if you need one for pipeline ROW!  There was a lot of agreements added by the attorney that was not even hinted at in the original.  First round MW agreed to almost everything.  A couple small adjustments and they (MW) accepted.  Made me wonder if the price per foot agreed upon wasn't too low. 

I can say that I have heard up to five lines, 24" ea.  The size and number of temp work space(s) was also included, with a price per each.  However, some items such as timber weren't really relevant, so... not much time/consideration was given to that aspect.  Oh, also, yes, assignment to others was also something MW wanted, and it seemed important to them.

Hope this helps.

A Gag order on a pipeline ROW.  REALLY?   They know every trick in the book to cheat people out of their fair share.  Maybe new car dealers will start using that?

Pipeline agreements are a joke.  I know pipelines are necessary but I will never allow one.  Mark West put one on my neighbors and the road is still a piece of shit. Can't get ahold of anyone to fix the damn thing.
