The berm of the Hickory-Jackson ditch prevents flow from go- <br />ing to the south. Where no berm exists, flow goes into the ditch, <br />also preventing the flow from going to the south. Attempts were <br />made to contact owners of the ditch company to determine water <br />rights to the ditch. During the irrigation season, the ditch <br />appeared to have enough capacity to carry the storm flows in <br />addition to the irrigation flows. However, the ditch company <br />may be opposed to combining the flows. It is recommended pur- <br />suing an agreement with the ditch company as one alternative. <br />A second alternative is a pipe paralleling the ditch along <br />13th Street. <br /> <br />Alternative 1. The existing Hickory-Jackson ditch has suf- <br />ficient capacity to carry the storm flows without irriga- <br />tion flows. Depending upon the decreed water rights, the <br />ditch could be modified to carry both flows, or storm <br />flows less than the 100-year storm runoff with larger <br />irrigation flows.
