Getting Creative with Vegetation Management in Pipeline ROWs

摘要

Vegetation management is one of the critical aspects of maintaining rights-of-way (ROWs) for pipelines. Results of regularly scheduled inspections are among the key determinators for the implementation of specific maintenance efforts to control vegetation. Inspections of ROWs can be done in different ways - usually through aerial surveillance and physical visits to the lands. The data gathered through these inspections may be reviewed internally by pipeline companies as well as using software programs and assistance of other businesses.
