Title: Co-locating Water and Gas Gathering Lines and Roads.
Text: E. Central Gas Gathering Treatment, Compression, and Metering Facilities: "BMP 2: Co-locating Water and Gas Gathering Lines and Roads. Locate roads and water and gas gathering lines in the same easement along a route agreed to with the surface owner. In general, for smaller tracts of land (160 acres or less) and tracts that may be subdivided later, roads and gathering lines should be located in designated utility easements or along property boundary lines to avoid splitting off unusable tracts."
