Note that the timber piles here are only for twenty-five feet and not seventy-five feet. Although seventy-five feet may not sound like much, you can see, below, the impact it makes on the property. The picture, therefore, depicts seventy-five feet of cleared ROW. The company got permission to clear an extra twenty-five feet to install a second line within the ROW. This ROW in particular is only fifty feet wide. The timber is always stacked along the side of the ROW.
Depending on how the contract is negotiated, you may be entitled to keep the leftover timber, or it may become the property of the pipeline company. You can see a few of the timber piles alongside the ROW. This photo shows a heavily timbered property. If a ROW is just in grass they will not have to clear it. Clearing can mean removing crops or timber. The next step is clearing the ROW if necessary. This will include any temporary workspace (they do not typically flag the temporary workspace separately). During the survey the pipeline company should flag the full extent of the ROW. It will also tell you exactly what you will be paid. The survey will tell them exactly how long the ROW is on your property.
