Revised: 07/30/97 • Minutes-July 23, 1997 • Page 17 <br /> Mr. Packard, representing the property owner University of Colorado (CU), stated that this issue is <br /> not much of a mining issue for Western Mobile, it is more of an issue for the property owner. The <br /> berm was a pre-existing structure that predated the mining. It was designed and submitted to the <br /> County for approval in 1979, it was approved by the County in 1980 and it was built in 1980 and <br /> completed by October of that year. At the time, there was a flood study going on that the County <br /> and Urban Drainage District were working on and because of that, the Permit had several <br /> conditions. One of those, expressly states and he quoted `If the area to be protected by the dike is to <br /> be removed from the flood plain in the future, the applicant will be responsible for modifying the <br /> proposed or constructed dike to meet the requirements following the Corp. of Engineers Study.' <br /> The Corp. of Engineers Study came to be known as the Greenhome and O'Mura Study which has <br /> subsequently in 1987 adopted by the Urban Drainage District, FEMA and the County as the <br /> regulatory flood plain. It recognized the berm and the area west to the berm within it, is outside the <br /> flood plain. <br /> Last fall,two studies were done, both of which suggested that the mid-1980 Study might be in error <br /> and that the hundred year flood plain might be a foot or two higher. Because of that, they have had <br /> many meetings with Mr. Lang's office, FEMA, Urban Drainage District, City, County and <br /> landowners. The conclusion of those meetings is that they would make some modifications to the <br /> berm to enhance it so that it would a four foot free board over the highest flood level of the studies <br /> that have been done (Taggert Study). That is what the TR is for, to raise the berm at most, about <br /> two feet through about a 1,500 length of the berm to get it to that level. Mr. Packard then <br /> introduced Eldon Knoll and explained that Mr. Knoll has drafted the profiles of the berm as it was <br /> originally built, as it is today, the proposed changes to the berm and the flood level Exhibit 15E- <br /> Chart of Berm Levels. Mr. Packard went on to state that both the City and County have raised that <br /> there need to be more studies. Nothing has been contracted and they're coming into another year. <br /> As the property owner, they feel it is imperative that they move forward with the modest <br /> enhancement to protect 2,500 homes that have believed, since the early 1980's, that they were <br /> outside of the flood plain. <br /> Mr. Cattany asked Mr. Packard who he felt has the authority to require more modifications if it's <br /> inadequate for flood control. Mr. Packard responded that Mr. Lang's group, FEMA, Urban <br /> Drainage District as well as CU. All of those entities, include the City and County, have been <br /> consulted in regards to the considerations. Ms. Green asked Staff to address what the difference in <br />
