water and pipeline righ of ways

Hello, This is my first post. I am a landowner in WV with a lease signed with CHK. The well is not on my property but CHK  wants to construct water line to draw water from a creek that runs through my property to the drill site. CHK also wants to construct a gas transmission pipeline across my property to tie in with another drill site. 

We've received the initial right of way agreement documents from the sub contractors who will be constructing them.

Does anyone in northern WV have any experience with this? I would like to hire an attorney

familiar with these issues to add the necessary amendments (ie liability, timber, etc).

Hi Kim... are you in Hancock County?  I would be leary to allow CHK to suck your creek dry... they will need an over abundance of water to drill... let them haul it from the Ohio River.

 

Jeff Rokisky seems to be the most studied attorney for oil and gas issues in our area.

 

Hope this helps!  -Todd

Hi Todd, I'm in Brooke County. There wasn't a Brooke County discussion group so I jumped into the Hancock group. Hope you don't mind :)

 

Where is Jeff Rokisky located?

 

Thanks for the reply
