Why is it important to keep NBU utility easements clear?
NBU utility easements must be kept clear so that NBU can efficiently operate the utility systems under its control. For example, there may be times when NBU must replace a pole or water line or must restore electric service, and unobstructed access to the utility facilities must be available at all times to avoid delay or conditions which may endanger NBU personnel. How does an NBU utility easement affect what I can do with my property? A utility easement affects your ability to use that portion of your land in a variety of ways. For example, you may be restricted in what you can build on the easement, whether trees or other vegetation can be planted in the easement and how trees and other vegetation must be maintained on the easement.
