Linda <br />is a certified Right of Way Professional (RWP) and Fred is a certified Senior Right of Way Agent <br />(SR/WA) through the IRWA. Combined they have over 40 years of experience in the right of way industry <br />serving both public sector and private utility clients. Linda and Fred started Clark Land with the intention <br />of growing up a new generation of professionals trained in the ethical practices of right of way. Clark <br />Land was considered and approved as a California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) certified Woman - <br />Owned Business (WBE). Following our WBE certification from the CPUC Clark Land then applied, and <br />was approved for, certification as a Small Business (SB) by the California Department of General <br />Services. <br />In 2013, four more employees were hired to provide right of way support services for SoCalGas and San <br />Diego Gas & Electric.

In the past 3-4 years, over 30 <br />certifications and/or licenses were obtained by Clark Land staff <br />from the IRWA and the State of California. <br />Because of our commitment to education, training, and the <br />highest standards of integrity, Clark Land has acquired <br />numerous as -needed contracts with public sector and private <br />utility clients and today we are a firm of 66 employees with more <br />than 50 staff located in Southern California. <br />Years in Business: 7 <br />fired and Linda Clark receiving the 2D14 <br />Small Company of the YearAward from <br />the IRWA San Diego Chapter <br />Staffing: 50+ professional and support personnel located in Southern California, and 66 <br />companywide <br />Why Hire Clark Land Resources? <br />Clark Land's direct focus and experience is with public sector clients, public agencies, and both private <br />and public utilities in providing right of way services including property rights research, interpretation and <br />acquisition, valuation, relocation assistance plans, encroachment services, and project management <br />assistance for projects involving water, storm water, sewer, transportation, housing, gas, and electrical <br />transmission projects. <br />Clients have recognized Clark Land's expertise based on our team members' decades of experience and <br />ongoing training.
