"Visual resources along the proposed pipeline routes are a function of geology and
climate, and include topographic relief, vegetation, water features, wildlife, land use, and human uses and development.
Although the proposed route includes stretches of forested land, the majority of the alignment would be installed within or parallel to existing right-of-way.
These existing rights-of-way are maintained periodically on different schedules according to different maintenance methods.
"Installing pipelines within existing rights-of-way
reduces impacts by
preventing fragmentation of vegetation
and minimizing vegetation clearing
for the construction work areas
and permanent right-of-way. "
