steve,same here in pa.
my cousin OWNS pipeline here near his property,he even put a fence accross it with gate.
he gave key to the gas co/electric co. they have RIGHT OF WAY ONLY.

as for getting permiision you MUST have WRITTEN PERMISSION to go on private property here in pa.

if you put a treestand up on PRIVATELAND,you must have WRIITEN PERMISSION to put it up and a WCO can come into privateproperty and arrest you EVEN if you had VERBAL permission to be there.

if tree is damaged on PRIVATELAND from tree steps/climber/little screws to hold your gun/cutting off limbs, a WCO can come into property and arrest you for damaging tree UNLESS the landowner gave you WRIITEN PERMISSION to damage tree..

if WCO comes in and you dont haveWRIITEN PERMISSION to be there or to damage a tree,he can arrest you and fine will be over 500 dollars ..

getting theWRIITEN PERMISSION later will not help get rid of violation, you MUST have it in writing at time of offense..

i think its TITLE 34 in rule book.........
