A pipeline company may enter upon private land for the purpose of surveying and examining the land to determine direction or depth of a pipeline by giving ten days' written notice by restricted certified mail to the landowner and to any person residing on or in possession of the land. For purposes of this section only, "landowner" means a person listed on the tax assessment rolls as responsible for the payment of real estate taxes imposed on the property. The entry for land surveys authorized in this section is not a trespass and may be aided by injunction. The pipeline company shall pay the actual damages caused by the entry and survey.
