RE: Biltmore Estates Subdivision No. 4 FP-2022-0007
S. of W. Victory Rd. & S Kentucky Way
New York Irrigation District NY-109-001-01
Sundell Lateral 49+70
Sec. 25, T3N, R1 W, B.M.
Sonya Allen, Planner:
The United States' Sundell 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)
The Boise Project Board of Control is contracted to operate and maintain this lateral. We assert
this federal easement 21 feet Northeast and 15 feet Southwest 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.
Boise Project reserves the right to have changes made if our easements are effected in any way
even during the construction phase of this project.
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 easements
must remain a flat drivable surface.
Any fencing or pathways, as may be required, must be constructed off of any Boise Project
Easements.
Parking lots, curbing, light poles, signs, etc. and the placing of asphalt and/or cement over Project
facility easements must be located outside of these easements.
i
i
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.
Storm Drainage and/or Street Runoff must be retained on site.
i
Per Idaho State Statutes, title 42, all 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 is also under the understanding that the Home Owners Association will own
and operate any pump station that is associated with this phase.
This development is subject to Idaho Code 31-3805, in accordance,this office is requesting a full-
size hard copy of the irrigation and drainage plans.
If you have any further questions or comments regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to
contact me at (208) 344-1141.
