Simpson: <br />1 finally had the opportunity to confer with Mr. Weitzel. <br />Box 1~lder will grant approval generally as outlined in. your <br />letter of July 19, 1995. <br />Ditch crossings require complete detail since structures pause <br />more problems for ditch campanie5 than anything else. The ditch is <br />quite flat in this area and so the design must be done so that the <br />flow is not impeded. Most likely, a precast invert without a <br />bottom or with a flat bottom with the top level slightly below the <br />pzesent level. Evan then the flow of the ditch is slaw in this <br />area, some upstrQam protection against erosion will be required. <br />The usual design calls for wing walls. The width of the structure <br />should essentially be the same width as the existing ditch. Fully <br />engineered plans and specs must be presented. Construction can be <br />done only when the ditch is not in use and that usually means <br />October 15 through April 15. Perpetual maintenance is required and <br />removal at the termination of the proposed gravel operations at the <br />discretion of Box Elder. <br />Mining within 100 feet is acceptable and unless problems might <br />occur, Mr. Weitzel sees no reason why mining operation can not be <br />done even when the ditch is running. But it is his understanding <br />that back filling is eontem~slated and that an actual distance of <br />400 feet will ultimately exist between tho ditoh and the westerly <br />edge of your pit. <br />All expenses incurred with Box P.ldeX because of this request <br />must be paid by Connell. This includes legal, engineering, and <br />time for Mr, Weitzel and the ditch superintendents. An initial <br />dapo6lt of $2,000.00 will be required. If this sum is <br />insufficient, Connell will be obligated to pay the additional cast. <br />
