The Right-of-Way & Utilities office is responsible for the administration of acquisition and relocation activities on federal or federally-assisted projects and programs. The office also serves to identify and resolve utility conflicts that occur when accommodating public utilities on highway right-of-way.
This Right-of-Way & Utilities web page is intended to provide standard guidelines for consultants preparing Right-of-Way Plans, Plats and Centerline Descriptions on FLH transportation improvement programs.
It is also intended to serve as a resource for state and local agencies acquiring right of way for Federal Lands Projects. Property owners/occupants, county, state and federal agencies, private consultants, and public utility companies can also access FLH programs and activities through this site.
