~ III IIIIIIIIIIIII III <br />• <br />BULL SEEP <br />MEETING MINUTES <br />SEPTEMBER 17, 2001 I:OO AM <br />(REVtsen 10/02/01) <br />MINUTES <br />Attendance: (SEE ATTACHED LIST) <br />Location: Urban Drainage & Flood Control District Boazd Room <br />Time: 9:00 AM <br />Date: Wednesday, September 17, 2001 <br />Meeting Minutes: <br />1. Sign up sheet sent around. Introductions were made. <br />2. Bryan Kohlenberg (UDFCD) recapped that last week he had met with Ken McIntosh <br />(McIntosh Farms), Rick Anderson (Adams County), and John Hickman (Mobile/I.afazge) <br />to discuss Altemative 3. Based on the input from the meeting, he instructed ICON to <br />investigate another altemative, Alternative 3a, which was a modification to Altemative 3. <br />Altemative 3a proposed to discharge the Bull Seep into the Bull Seep Slough where the <br />discharge would flow over portions of property in the Slough owned by McIntosh Farm <br />Company. <br />3. Altemative 3 was presented on new project mapping. This altemative included the <br />installation of the South Platte River Grade Control, Bull Seep Slough Drop with Bank <br />Stabilization adjacent to the Hazeltine Pit. This altemative still included filling the <br />northwest corner of the Howe-Haller Pit to re-grade the Bull Seep entirely on Denver <br />Water/Lafarge property. Changes to this altemative from the last meeting involved only <br />filling the existing Bull Seep Slough enough to create a minimum 100-ft setback from the <br />South Platte River. <br />4. Craig Jacobson (ICON) explained the concepts associated with Alternative 3a, and <br />explained how they differed from Alternative 3Alternative 3a was similar to Altemative <br />3, with the exception that the Bull Seep and Bull Seep Slough confluence was moved <br />back adjacent to Ken Mclntosh's property in order to avoid the modifications to the <br />Howe-Haller Pit. A second alignment, labeled as "Bull Seep Alternate Alignment" was <br />shown on both altemative maps to depict an alignment closer in location to the one <br />described in the Reclamation Plan easement. <br />5. Scott Franklin (US-Army Corps of Engineers) asked about groundwater studies for the <br />area, specifically pertaining to whether or not the Bull Seep fed irrigation water to the <br />local trees prior to May 5`h and if many of the trees appeared to be dying. Matt Ursetta <br />(ICON) stated that we have not seen any groundwater studies and some trees appeared to <br />be dying close [o the proposed confluence with Bull Seep and First Creek. No formal <br />assessment of the trees has been completed at this time. Tree survey before the leaves <br />fall was discussed. <br />6. Bryan mentioned that Lafarge, Denver Water, and Adams County should decide where <br />and how to relocate Bull Seep on the Howe-Haller/Conservation Easement property since <br />the UDFCD would not be contributing to that phase of the project. At a minimum the <br />P:\Pt0t D2 ]bui\tlocst9-t] meeting tloc <br />
