Appalachia Midstream Services (AMS) makes every effort to work with landowners to reclaim the easement and repair any damages which might have occurred due to pipeline construction. Depending upon negotiations with the owner or permitting entity, AMS will restore the land to its original or improved condition, or the property owner will receive compensation for the surface damages allowing them to complete the restoration of their own property.
Site restoration is performed on the entire length of the easement above the pipeline when trenching is used. When boring or horizontal directional drilling (HDD) is used, restoration will occur at each end of the bore.
