Right-of-way Survey

A right-of-way survey for a pipeline, roadway easement or overhead utility lines is conducted to establish an easement across a property for the construction and maintenance.  The survey typically stakes all angle points of the easement and a stake approximately every 200 feet along the centerline.  The survey plat will include an exhibit showing the relationship of the right- of-way to the property lines along with a metes and bounds description of the proposed easement.  Usually a separate exhibit is prepared for each owner the proposed easement may cross.  The exhibits and descriptions are included with the easement agreements and filed in the County Clerk’s Office.
