• Rebuilding the ditch access road on City of Greeley property (only in the flood <br />impacted area) <br />• Laying back the slope of the newly formed incised channel <br />• Maintaining existing grades of the new channel to approximately the current in- <br />field conditions <br />This scope of work and the project geometry have been developed based on several <br />constraints, including the project's location in the 100 -year floodplain. The associated <br />floodplain regulations as implemented through the project floodplain development permit <br />direct the project to maintain grading and water surface elevations to match closely with <br />the existing post -flood field conditions. As a result, the project maintains the newly - <br />formed incised channel. Additionally, the continued risk of erosion in this area <br />originating at the unprotected earthen embankment of the Al gravel pit makes it unwise <br />and cost prohibitive, considering BIC's limited financial resources, to continually fill in <br />flood - induced erosion areas. Finally, the project layout was developed to provide <br />maximum flexibility to Al in its efforts to repair and stabilize its gravel pit embankment. <br />It is BIC's expectation that that work by Al will be completed in a manner that will <br />provide appropriate flood protection measures. <br />BIC will construct some of the project improvements (including the upstream and <br />downstream tie -ins to the existing pipe, the buried rip rap, and the sheet pile wall) in its <br />existing prescriptive easement, which runs north/south along the western edge of the <br />Property. The remaining work (including the rebuilt siphon and access road) will be <br />located on the western, adjacent property. BIC, in limiting the amount of work done in its <br />existing easement does not waive, in any fashion, its ability to make full use of the <br />easement in the future. Further, by doing this work and mitigating its damages, BIC does <br />not waive any rights it has to hold 83rd and Al liable for damages resulting from actions <br />or omissions by either or both entities. <br />Please call or email me if you would like to discuss this project. <br />Best regards, <br />Roger Schmidt <br />Boyd Irrigation Company President <br />cc: Peter Hayes, Colorado DRMS <br />Eric Reckentine, BIC <br />Christie Coleman, BIC <br />Jeff Kahn, Lyons Gaddis Kahn Hall Jeffers Dworak & Grant, PC <br />
