                         Via this portal, you can easily submit 
                          your Electricity and Gas Easement/Wayleave searches 
                          to National Grid Electricity Transmission and National 
                          Gas Transmission plc.

                          be available for immediate processing by the engineers.

                          friendly than sending your requests via the conventional
