If you are unable to fulfill the payment online, you can mail a request to Hydro One to conduct the search on your behalf via Canada Post (mailing address: 185 Clegg Road, Markham, ON, L6G 2B7 attention: Unregistered Easements). The current fee is $88.29 CAN plus HST for a total of $99.76 CAN per legal description search. The fee must be paid via cheque and sent to the address above. If multiple legal descriptions are to be searched, requests can be mailed in together with a single cheque to cover the total amount. Hydro One will complete your search request within 21 days.

Yes. If zero (0) records are returned for a search, users may click “View Results” to generate a PDF report that confirms that zero Unregistered Easements were returned for the provided search criteria. It is important to note that DataViewer will still load in another tab, and will provide generic message that “The specified query has not returned any data. If you need help please contact the System Administrator.” Note that this is not an error, but a standard message automatically generated for Zero results. No further action is required by the user.
