The United States' Belle/Carlson lateral lies within the 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) if
approved.
The Boise Project Board of Control is contracted to operate and maintain this lateral. We assert
this federal easement of 25 feet north and 25 feet south 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 or gravel) within its easements,
as this will certainly increase our cost of maintenance. Easement must remain a flat drivable
surface.
Fencing, pathways and sprinklers (as may be required) must be constructed just off the lateral
easement, to ensure public safety and prevent encroachments.
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.
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.
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.
Crossing agreements must be secured and signed by all parties prior to March 1 Sc of each year. 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 15t` of
each year. However, on a case by case basis, overhead utilities and utilities boring underneath a
Project facility may be allowed after March 15t' if reviewed and approved by the Boise Project.
Any proposed piping of the Belle/Carlson 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.
Storm Drainage and/or Street Runoff must be retained on site.
NO DISCHARGE into the live irrigation system is permitted.
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 Statutes, Title 42-1209.
Whereas this property lies within the Boise-Kuna Irrigation District it is important that
representatives of this development contact the BKID 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 Boise-Kuna 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.
This development is subject to Idaho Code 31-3805, in accordance, this office is requesting full
size copies of the irrigation and drainage plans.
Local irrigation/drainage ditches that cross this property, in order to serve neighboring properties,
must remain unobstructed and protected by an appropriate easement.
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 even during the
construction process.
Contractor must contact our division 2 office at 208-342m3uao prior to any construction
being done within the above quoted easement.
If you have any further questions or comments regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to
contact me at (208) 344-1141.
