This grant includes the right of the GRANTEE, its successors, permittees, licensees, and assigns
and its and their agents and employees, to enter at all times upon the above-described land by
using existing roads or trails or otherwise by a route causing the least damage and inconvenience
to the GRANTOR(S) in order to survey and establish the route and location of the easement and
the pipeline and to:
(1) Construct, operate, patrol, repair, substitute, remove, enlarge, replace, and maintain the
pipeline, services, connections, accessories and appurtenances;
(2) Trim, remove, destroy, or otherwise control any trees and brush inside or outside the
boundaries of the easement which may, in the opinion of the GRANTEE, interfere or
threaten to interfere with or be hazardous to the construction, operation and maintenance
of the pipelines;
(3) Grade the land subject to this easement and extend the cuts and fills of this grading into
and on the land adjacent to that which is subject to this easement to the extent GRANTEE
may find reasonably necessary; and
(4) Support the pipeline across ravines and water courses with structures which GRANTEE
deems necessary.
THE GRANTEE AGREES:
(1) That, in connection with the construction, operating, patrolling, repairing, substituting,
removing, enlarging, replacing, and maintaining of said water & sanitary sewer pipelines,

large rocks or surplus excavating material or any debris that may have been exposed by
the excavation and remains after backfilling is completed. And, it will leave the finished

(5) The GRANTEE may peaceably hold and enjoy the rights and privileges herein granted
without any interruption by the GRANTOR(S). The terms, covenants and provisions of
this easement and agreement shall extend to and be binding upon the heirs, executors,
administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
