The collection and conservation of public utility easements is a sovereign task of the State, which must bring them to the attention of local and regional authorities so that they may annex them to their urban planning documents. The public utility easements concerned are those defined by Articles L. 126-1 and R. 126-1 of the Urban Planning Code and their annexes.

The T1 type SUPs concern the riparian properties of the railways and are established in areas defined by the Law of 15 July 1845 on the Railway Police and by Article 6 of the Decree of 30 October 1935, as amended, creating visibility easements on public roads.
