It is <br /> absolutely essential that after construction the drainage system drains the remaining Holzem <br /> • property as efficiently as it is now being drained. <br /> I have included a drawing (not to scale) showing the existing "drainage system". Right now <br /> the system is adequate to drain this thick soiled field. After your construction it is my <br /> understanding that additional water from the west will be drained from the new 4-lane <br /> highway into the drain labeled 3 and then into D-3 and into 4 and so on to the south. <br /> Let me try to describe in words the existing system. The backbone of it is a old 10" cement <br /> drain tile that is parallel to and south of the proposed new easement. There are at least 3 <br /> collection drains that we have identified that capture water and move it to D. One is located <br /> in the old right of way at the bottom of the ditch about midway along the ditch. It is labeled <br /> 1 on the draining. When I was there on Tuesday, I observed water running into that drain. <br /> Right now it has rocks and mud around the top but we believe it to be 8" to 10" in diameter <br /> cement with a steel grate. A second collection drain is located at the west end of the Holzem <br /> property, again in the existing easement at the bottom of the ditch. It is clearly visible, it is <br /> 8" to 10" in diameter ( estimate), it has a steel grate at the top. When i was there I could see <br /> water flowing inside the drain (lots of water). This was water coming from the ditch on the <br /> south side of County 12 to the west, through a culvert under the adjacent field access, water <br /> from the field to the north of County 12 (the owner busted into the line under the road), and <br /> water from the abandoned County Ditch north of County 12 that still takes water from the <br /> tiled farms farther to the north. In addition, water from the ditch east of the drain was <br /> Sunerc n,. r r..r.. ,.:�.n,,.
