It is the responsibility of the landowner to contact the County prior to any proposed work in the County’s developed or undeveloped rights-of-way, including items like approach construction or modifications, new ditches or deepening of existing ditches, brushing, and any other work. Rights-of-way are used for various purposes and may have high-pressure gas lines and oil pipelines running across them.
