Texas arresting people in bars for being drunk

If they started by asking property owners if they'd consider hosting the line and base their route on willingness to participate, they'd possibly do better.

Griff , Think about that for sec , asking the land owners IF they want a gas main run thru their front yard , who the HELL is going to allow that ??

Actually, my development was built around an underground gas pipeline. In some cases, it passes into peoples yards.

It really comes down to compensation. If it meant a payment of $100 per month for the average house to act as host, there might be some people who would go for it. As an added bonus, you would have automatic caretakers since it would be in the residents interest to report signs of a leak.

When I bought my place, in 1978, I was reading the deed (after the sale of course

) and it said there was a petroleum pipeline right-of-way.
Yipes! So I got the name of the pipeline company and called them in the Midwest, maybe Ohio.
I gave them my name and address and told them my problem. Within 3 minutes the had someone on the phone explaining the line didn't cross my land, but down the road a little ways.
The line had been put in before the property was subdivided and would show on all deeds descended from that property.
They really blew me away when they started describing all the properties involved. I mean every feature, slopes, notable rocks, even big trees. They knew it up, down and sideways.
Now, this pipeline runs for hundreds of miles but they had all the details for my little area in minutes. I was impressed.
