s 13

(1)

After pipe-lines have been laid in accordance with the provisions of this Act, it shall be lawful for the owner or person in charge of such pipe-lines or any person authorised in writing by either of them from time to time as it becomes necessary, to enter upon the lands through which such pipe-lines have been laid for the purpose of inspecting and with such assistance as may be necessary repairing the same, or in case such pipe-lines shall no longer be required, for the purpose of removing the same.

(2)

When pipe-lines are removed, the surface of the land shall forthwith be restored to its former condition. In default thereof such restoration may be carried out by the owner of the land, and the costs thereof shall be recoverable from the person liable therefore in court without limit of amount.
