ThiB would appear to increase the maint:enanct <br />responaiblity of the Cedar Heights property owners. A8 i.n the <br />case of Option 1, the 54/30-inch culvert would be vvertol:ped +n <br />10(1-year «:vent <yr in the event the HR-6 culvert becamr. p1uS~ged. <br />option 3: This option does not effectively solve the cvnce~•.a <br />pointed out in the above discussion. In fact, o! the ti•ae <br />options discussed thus far, Option 3 increases the flew and <br />sediment transport (relative to options 1 and 2), to the 54/30- <br />inch culvert and thereby creating the potential for even <lreater <br />damage to the quarry access road and to Slack Canyon Road. <br />Options 4 and 5: These options propose that all of th+a flow <br />originating from basin HR-6 be diverted to the HR-~ basiin and <br />eventually to the 54/30-inch culvert. This option in our c>pinian <br />is unacceptable and creates the potential Pon even +areater <br />lability to the quarry operates. If these options are <br />pursued, the quarry operator would have to make provisio;zs for <br />the handling o1 overflows ontp the publio portion of Black Canyon <br />Road which would involve concurrence from either the County <br />and/or the City of Manitou Springs. Removing the section of 30- <br />inch culvert Prom the 54/30-inch system would increase the <br />capacity sufficiently to prevent overflow on to Black Canyon <br />Road. Design of the roadside swales would have to be completed <br />by the quarry operators. <br />0~?tlon 6,; ~, ,'his option in our opinion if the moat acceptsble of <br />';"'the alternates identified thus far. The construction Of a 100- <br />year capacity culvert at the outfall point of the HR-6 bas :cc <br />would prevent the diversion of flows to other basins and thereby <br />relieve the concerns caused by such diversions. This option <br />would also eliminate the Head for hold harmless provisions <br />necessary to implement any of the diversion schemes discussed <br />above. The quarry operator should also be responaik~le !or <br />removing and/or othsrwise•stabilising tho area at the inlet of <br />the HR-6 culvert so as t.o prevent Sediment deposition along the <br />natural ewale and within Cedar Heights Drive.
