The FERC’s Landowner Helpline is managed by the Dispute Resolution Service (DRS).
DRS staff are neutral and independent professional mediators who facilitate communication between landowners and natural gas companies.
DRS staff assist landowners with:
- Construction-Related Concerns and Damages from Interstate Natural Gas Transmission Pipelines, Natural Gas Storage Projects, and Liquified Natural Gas Projects
- Land Access Disputes
- Executed Easement Disputes (pre-existing easement agreements; DRS cannot help landowners negotiate a new easement)
- Land Restoration Disputes (revegetation, settling or subsidence, erosion, or drainage)
While it is not required, it is highly encouraged to follow the Company’s process for reporting concerns prior to contacting our Landowner Helpline. Check your paperwork for the local Land Agent’s contact information or the company’s hotline number.Toll-free Telephone: 1-877-337-2237

When calling the FERC Landowner Helpline, please provide, if known:
- Project docket number,
- Name and location of the project, and
- Name and contact information for company officials you have previously worked with.
| Looking for project-specific information? The company proposing the project, the Land Agent, and the company hotline are the best resources for landowners who are seeking information about the project, the type of work to be performed on your land, and associated timing for construction and restoration. |
