Once you complete the form our legal team will be in touch about next steps. Folks in the proposed route and those not in the proposed route can be supporters. Email 
Info@NebraskaEasement.org, call N.E.A.T at 402-705-8679 or call Brian Jorde 402-493-4100, with questions. 

When you submit this form, you are not giving up your right to go through the Condemnation process if you choose, you are agreeing to the following:

On behalf of the persons and company named below, I express these commitments and acknowledge that I want to be a part of a substantial effort, by concerned Nebraska landowners and citizens who face dealings with TransCanada, to join efforts to:

  1. Develop standard easement terms and conditions; 
  2. Procure group legal services to negotiate standard easement terms and conditions;  
  3. Develop a body of expertise of legal, appraisal, and geological or other specialties to support landowner negotiations and possible litigation with TransCanada concerning its desire to obtain easements for its pipeline; 
  4. I understand the group will be organized as Nebraska Easement Action Team, Inc. (“N.E.A.T.”), a not-for-profit, non-member corporation. Its directors will be authorized to receive, account for, and expend funds solely to advance the objectives of N.E.A.T. I am aware that I am not becoming a member or owner of N.E.A.T. by executing this Commitment. 
  5. I will pay a reasonable proportional charge based on a formula multiplying the assessed value of my affected land by the number of acres affected, divided by the total of the assessed value times the total number of all N.E.A.T. Supporters acres involved in N.E.A.T.’s rendition of services. Maximum fee not to exceed $2500 per affected quarter-section of crop land and $2000 per affected quarter-section of pasture land.  For folks not in the direct route we suggest a one-time donation of $100.00 that can be submitted on-line or mailed to the address below.
I will encourage others to cooperate with N.E.A.T. to form a coalition. I will not enter into any confidentiality agreements prohibiting me from sharing information about TransCanada with my neighbors, but I will not divulge information learned from N.E.A.T., or persons associated with or hired by it, concerning TransCanada or any other matter, to anyone who is not a verified participant in the efforts of N.E.A.T.
