The existing field drain tile and the existing storm sewer pipe will be extended eastward to the twin culvert pipe under Bluhm Drive. The field drain tile will be plastic corrugated pipe with a smooth interior bore with the same diameter as the existing tile. The storm drain will be plastic pipe, the same diameter and quality as presently installed. These pipes are to outflow onto a 5" thick reinforced concrete apron along with existing storm pipe which is outflowing from north and south. This apron will be poured upstream of the twin pipe under Bluhm Drive. It will be necessary for you to meet the existing grade and ditch slopes of the present upstream ditch. The City also requires a more defined roadside ditch on the west side of Bluhm Drive, near the area that you have filled. All plans for the above mentioned work will need to be presented to the Public Works Committee for approval before work can commence. Also, please be advised that the drainage ditch you had asked about had been cleaned out approximately seven years ago.
