The United States' Ten Mile Feeder lies within the 'boundary of the above-mentioned location.
The easement for this lateral is held in fee 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 that is held in
fee by the Bureau of Reclamation. Whereas this area is for the operation and maintenance of our
facility, no activity should hinder our ability to do so.
Please note the appropriate easements on all future preliminary/final plats.
Wording on the preliminary and final recorded plat needs to state that any proposed and/or future
usage of the Boise Project Board of Control facilities are subject to Idaho Statues, Title 42-1209.
The Boise Project does not approve landscaping including trees and/or shrubs (other than grass or
gravel) within its easements, as this will certainly increase our cost of maintenance. All fences
and paths must be just off the edge of all Boise Project easements. Easements must remain a flat
drivable surface.
Project facilities and/or easements that parallel, and are within and/or intended to be within road
right-of-ways due to any development of this property must be relocated outside of road right-of-
ways. The easements of Boise Project facilities will remain the same unless agreed upon and/or
approved with written permission from Boise Project Board of Control.
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.
Utilities planning to cross any project facility 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.
This property lies within the New York Irrigation District. It is important that representatives of
this development contact the NYID office as soon as possible to discuss the pressure system prior
to any costly design work. If applicable, the irrigation system will have to be built to specific
specifications as set by the District / Project.
Boise Project Board of Control must receive a written response from the New York Irrigation
District as to who will own and operate the pressure irrigation system prior to review and approval
of an irrigation plan by 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 drainagic plans.
Whereas this development is in its preliminary stages, Boise Project Board of Control reserves
the right to review pians 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.
