The United States' Cunningham Lateral lies along the east boundary of the above-
mentioned location. The easement for this lateral is held in the name of the United States
through the Bureau of Reclamation under the authority of the Act of August 30, 1890.
(26 Stat. 391; 43 U.S.C. 945)
The Boise Project Board.of Control is contracted to operate and maintain this lateral. We
assert this federal easement 20 feet westerly and 20 .feet easterly of the lateral's
centerline. Whereas this area is for the ' operation and maintenance of our facility, ' no
activity should hinder our ability to do so.
The Boise Project does not approve landscaping (other than grass) within its easements,
as this will certainly increase our cost of maintenance.
In order to relocate the Cunningham Lateral, as proposed, a relocation agreement must be
secured through the Bureau of Reclamation prior to any.work within Project easements. It
is Boise Project's understanding that this process may take from 6 months up to a year to
obtain. A time schedule for the construction to be done during the non -irrigation season
must be approved by Boise Project prior to any activity within Project easements. No
construction will be allowed within the easement boundaries of the Boise Project Board
of Control facilities after March 15th of each year.
The contact person at the Bureau of Reclamation is Lupe Rodriguez. She may be reached
at (208) 383-2231.
Any proposed piping of the Cunningham Lateral (to include all appurtenant boxes and/or
structures) must be approved by the Boise Project Board of Control prior to any approval
of a final plat. If approved by the Boise Project, the pipe and all appurtenant boxes and/or
structures must be warranted by the land owner for a period of (5) five -years. The
Warrantee Agreement must be secured prior to ANY disturbance of that facility.
Boise Project Board of Control must approve any requests and/or relocation of delivery
points prior to construction.
The construction of any roadway crossings must be conducted only during the non -
irrigation season when the lateral is dewatered. In any case no work shall take place
within the easement before the proper crossing agreements have been secured through the
Bureau of Reclamation and the Boise Project Board of Control. 1 .
Utilities planning to cross any project facility in order to service this development must
do so in accordance with the master policies now held between the Bureau of
Reclamation and most of the utilities. In any case no work shall take place within the
easement before proper crossing agreements have been secured through both the Bureau
of Reclamation and the Boise Project Board of Control.
Storm Drainage and/or Street Runoff must be retained on site.
Local irrigation/drainage ditches that cross this property, in order to serve neighboring
properties, must remain unobstructed and protected by an appropriate easement.
This development is subject to Idaho Code 31-3805, in accordance, this office is
requesting any copies of the irrigation and drainage plans.
Whereas this development is in its preliminary stages, Boise Project Board of Control
reserves the right to review plans and require changes when our easements and/or
facilities are affected by unknown factors.
If you have any further questions or comments regarding this matter, please do not
hesitate to contact me at (208) 344-1141.
Sincerely,
Bob Carter
