GENERAL. This bill provides for a claim alleging a crop deficiency within an easement strip over agricultural land due to a pipeline carrying a solid, liquid, or gaseous substance. The bill amends the following three Code chapters: Code chapter 479 governing intrastate pipelines, Code chapter 479A governing interstate pipelines, and Code chapter 479B governing hazardous liquid pipelines. DAMAGE BASED ON INSURANCE POLICY. The bill provides that under each of the three Code chapters the landowner’s claim for damage may be determined by calculating the difference between the average yield of the crop produced within the easement and the average yield for the same crop produced on the remaining part of the agricultural land according to the landowner’s insurance policy listing insurable crops for that same crop year.

The landowner may continue to claim damage for five successive years after the pipeline has been abandoned. CLAIM BROUGHT IN DISTRICT COURT. The bill also provides that in the case of Code chapter 479 and Code chapter 479B a landowner may elect not to utilize a proceeding conducted by a compensation commission to determine damages caused by the installation of the pipeline. Under current law, either the landowner or the pipeline company may petition the board of supervisors in the county where the pipeline is located to establish such a commission. The bill provides that if the landowner receives a notice by a pipeline company that it has filed such a petition, the landowner may respond by notifying the board of the landowner’s election not to proceed by decision of the commission but instead to preserve the landowner’s right to bring a cause of action in district court.
