MEMORANDUM
FROM: Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District
RE: Procedures for review and approval of projects affecting District
facilities
DATE: 10 December 2020
This memorandum outlines procedures for Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District's review and
approval of projects affecting the District's canals, laterals, and drains (District facilities). The District
hopes that this information will assist you in planning future projects.
The steps of the District's review and approval process are:
A. Submission of a Land Use Change Application, plans and drainage calculations and
fee to the District's office.
B. Timely communication with the District's Water Superintendent and review of a Land
Use Change Application by Water Superintendent,
C. Preparation of a Construction Contract for Pressure Urban Irrigation System (if
applicable) which will allow the Irrigation District to own, operate and maintain a
pressure urban irrigation system within the development.
D. Submission of the Construction Contract for Pressure Urban Irrigation System to the
District's Board %J Directors for consideration.
E. Preparation of a License Agreement for projects encroaching, crossing or modifying
District canals, laterals, drains and relocated easements.
F. Submission of the License Agreement to the District's Board of Directors for
consideration.
Each of these steps is explained on the following pages.
A. Land Use Change Application:
The process begins with the filing of a Land Use Change Application with the District. These
applications are available at the District's office. A copy of the Land Use Change Application is
enclosed. The District's office address and telephone number are:
Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District
1503 First Street South
Nampa, ID 83651
208) 466=7861
1-
Filing a Land Use Change Application with plans and fee is mandatory unless it is
explicitly waived by the District's Water Superintendent in writing. Any additional phases of a
subdivision must file a Land Use Change Application unless the original filing specifically included all
necessary information for future phases in the plans and calculations submitted for review. The
application must always be accompanied by three (3) sets of plans, drainage calculations and
the appropriate fee ($650.00) in the form of a cashier's check or money order. If personal or
business checks are submitted, it can take up to a month to clear the bank before processing the
application will occur. The District recognizes that project development often involving many phases
of planning and approval. Timely submission of complete and sufficiently detailed plans and other
necessary information is critical to the District's review.
Project proposals must be submitted to the District's office for preliminary preparation and will
then be submitted to the District's Water Superintendent for his review and response. All
communications and construction plans should be sent to the District's office where they will be
processed and directed to the District's Water Superintendent.
Projects affecting the water flow in the District's facilities cannot commence until after October
151h and must be completed no later than March 15th. Plans for projects affecting the water flow must
be received for review no later than February 15th
B. Timely Communication with the District's Water Superintendent and Review of Land
Use Change Application:
You are encouraged to call the District's Water Superintendent prior to submitting plans if you
have any questions regarding the District's facilities, and to learn what specifications and level of
detail the District's Water Superintendent will need to see when reviewing the plans. If you believe
that you need not file a Land Use Change Application, you must contact the District's Water
Superintendent for appropriate instructions on how to proceed.
If the District's Water Superintendent finds that the proposed construction will meet the
District's requirements, a letter of approval of the plans will be written in which other requirements
may be outlined, such as a License Agreement or Construction Contract for Pressure Urban Irrigation
System,
License Agreements are required for the following reasons:
1. Relocation of a District facility which would also require a new easement or fee title and
a relinquishment of the old easement once the relocation has been completed and
approved by the Water Superintendent,
2. Piping of a District facility.
3. Encroachment on a District facility with gas, water and sewer lines, utility lines,
roadways, bridges or any other structures or landscaping.
4. Drainage discharges into District facilities (predevelopment flows only, if the facility has
the capacity).
2-
Construction Contracts for Urban Irrigation System is required for the following
reasons:
1. A pressure urban irrigation system is being installed by the developer who intends for
the Irrigation District to own, operate and maintain the pressure urban irrigation system
within the development. A Bill of Sale is also provided whereby all lines up to and
including the tap on each lot as well as the pump station are turned over to the
Irrigation District for ownership. A Warranty Deed should be issued to the Irrigation
District for the lot the pump station itself located (unless the pump station is built upon
the District's easement on a District facility).
2. A pump station only is being installed for ownership, operation and maintenance by the
Irrigation District. The development will operate and maintain their own delivery lines.
The District's Water Superintendent submits project plans to the District's engineer for review
and the Districts engineer makes recommendations to the District's Water Superintendent, but has no
authority to represent the District's interest or position regarding any project. The District's Water
Superintendent may request additional information or modification of the proposed project to conform
with District requirements.
C. Preparation of a Construction Contract for Urban Irrigation System
If the developer of the property is installing a pressure urban irrigation system within the
development and would like the Irrigation District to own, operate, maintain and repair the system up
to and including the tap in the back of each lot, the developer must send a letter to the District's
attorney, Laura Burri, requesting a construction contract to the following address:
Morrow Fischer
332 North roadmore, Suite 102
Nampa, ID 83687
208) 342=4591 (see contact list on page 5 for names)
The letter to the District's attorney should contain the following:
1. completed questionnaire provided at the same time the Land Use Change Application
is provided,
2. a legible copy of the legal description for the boundaries of the subdivision,
3. a copy of the recorded deed showing proof of the current ownership of the entire parcel
that will comprise the development,
4. a copy of all CC & R's pertaining to this subdivision,
5. a copy of the preliminary plat,
6. if a new pump station is to be constructed for this development, the preliminary plat
must show the location of the pump station as a separate, non -buildable lot.
The District's attorney first obtains confirmation: (1) that the Water Superintendent has
reviewed the plans pertaining to this development and that the developer is adhering to all of the
District's requirements, and, (2) the ownership of the property is by the individuals requesting the
contract. Upon confirmation, the District's attorney prepares the Construction Contract for Urban
Irrigation System (PUIS). The fees for preparation of the contract will be bourn by the property
owners at the time of assessing the irrigation taxes on the parcels, unless the developer fails to
complete the project. Then, the developer will be responsible for paying the fees for preparation of
rt the contract.
3-
Preparation of a Construction Contract for Urban Irrigation System (PUIS) can be
accomplished in a matter of days if all of the correct information is provided to District's attorney. The
District's attorney will send the original to you for your signature. Once signed, the contract must be
returned to the District's attorney so that she may recommend placement on the agenda for the next
available meeting of the District's Board of Directors.
It should be understood by the developer that the property subject to the pressurized urban
irrigation system will be assessed for all costs of maintenance, operation and repair of the pressurized
irrigation system upon recordation of the final plat and final approval of the contract documents by the
Irrigation District. The assessments will be made by the Board of Directors of the Nampa & Meridian
Irrigation District after the second Board Meeting in September of each year. Assessments will issue
to the owners of the property at the time of the assessment. Assessment will be made whether or not
any or all lots in the subdivision have been sold by the developer to third parties.
D. Submission of the Construction Contract for Urban Irrigation (PUIS) to Board of
Directors for Consideration
The District's Board of Directors meets on the first and third Tuesdays of the month.
Construction Contract for Urban Irrigation System (PUIS) must be executed by the property owner
and sent to the District's office no later than the Wednesday prior to the Tuesday meeting in order to
be placed on the agenda. Once on the agenda, the Board of Directors vote to approve or disapprove
the contract.
After the Construction Contract for Urban Irrigation (PUIS) has been approved, the documents
will be recorded at the county in which the project is located.
E. Preparation of a License Agreement:
If a License Agreement is required, the next step is for the developer to send a letter to the
District's attorney, Bryce Farris, requesting a License Agreement to the following address:
Sawtooth Law Office, PLLC
P.O. Box 7958
Golden Eagle Building
1101 W. River Street, Suite 110
Boise, ID 83702
208) 629=7447 (see contact list on page 5 for name)
The letter to the District's attorney should contain the following:
1. the owner's name of the property where the project will occur, with the owner's
telephone number and address,
2. the name of the District's canal, lateral or drain,
3. each part of the project which affects the District's facility and related easement,
4. the dates such construction is planned to begin and end,
5. whether an entity (such as city or ACHD) will assume ownership or maintenance of any
part of the project affecting the District's facility and easement,
6. a legal description of your property,

4-
8. each page of the construction plans that pertain to the project and was approved by
the District's Water Superintendent, and
9. a vicinity sketch showing the location of the property and the project.
The District's attorney first obtains confirmation: (1) that the property where the project will
occur is owned by the person(s) or entity(ies) identified in the request, and (2) that the Water
Superintendent has authorized preparation of a License Agreement. Upon confirmation, the District's
attorney prepares the License Agreement. You are responsible for the fees charged by the attorney
for the preparation of the License Agreement and other necessary documents and correspondence.
Legal fees depend upon the nature and complexity of the project and whether there are unresolved
issues.
Preparation of a License Agreement can be accomplished in a matter of days. The District's
attorney will send duplicate originals of the License Agreement and any other documents (such as an
easement in the case of a ditch relocation) to you for your signature. Both originals should be
returned to the District's attorney who will then recommend placement on the agenda for the next
available Board Meeting of the District's Board of Directors.
F. Submission of License Agreement to Board of Directors for Consideration
The District's Board of Directors meets on the first and third Tuesdays of the month. License
Agreements must be executed by the property owner ("licensee") and sent to the District's office no
later than the Wednesday prior to the Tuesday meeting in order to be placed on the agenda. Once
on the agenda, the District's Water Superintendent will present and explain the proposed License
Agreement to the District's Board of Directors for consideration.
After the License Agreement has been approved,
recorded at the county in which the project is located and
District's attorney. Upon receipt, the District's attorney will
copy of the billing statement for legal fees,
one original License Agreement will be
the other original will be returned to the
send you the unrecorded original with a
General Information
The amount of time this process requires from submission of the Land Use Change
Application of submission of a License Agreement or Construction Contract for Pressure Urban
Irrigation System (PUIS) to approval by the District's Board of Directors depends upon the nature and
extent of the project. Timely submission of clear and complete plans with the Land Use Change
Application and fees in the form of a cashier's check or money order facilitates the District's review
and saves time and expense.

PROCEDURES FOR SITE DEVELOPMENT
WITH
NAMPA & MERIDIAN IRRIGATION DISTRICT
LANDS AND CONVEYANCE SYSTEM
Revised September 19, 2017
1. Prior to development, contact Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District (NMID) for general
information concerning systems. If runoff is involved, NMID will need to determine;
1. Pre -development condition for runoff,
2. Flow of NMID facilities,
3. Present easements and widths,
4. If present runoff does, in fact, return to NMID facilities.
2. If technical questions arise, NMID's engineer may need to be involved.
3. BRIDGES: All bridges on NMID systems will need free board and vertical clearance
approval. The site may need to be reviewed for special considerations, such as;
maintenance access, diversions structures, etc. The minimum clearances are two feet (2')
for the Ridenbaugh Canal and one foot (l') for all other facilities. No center pillars or
dual conduit designs will be allowed.
4. CROSSINGS: Crossing of any NMID facility must be reviewed by NMID and may _
require lining of the facility. Crossings below NMID facilities are required to be a
minimum of three feet (3') under the bottom of the facility. Overhead crossings are to be
a minimum of 30 feet above easement area.
5. TRASH RACKS: Trash racks shall be sloped at 3:1 with vertical bars placed on six inch
6") centers and the horizontal bars shall be removed, see appendix for details.
6. CLEAN OUTS AND DIVERSION BOXES: Clean outs and diversion boxes are required
on all new conduits. Clean out locations are dictated by the ability to clean obstructions
from the conduit, and should be spaced no greater than 300 feet. Diversion boxes will be
placed at all angle points and at points of diversion of the conduit, see standard drawing
in the appendix. All boxes shall be cast in place, no precast boxes.
7. When tiling any canal or lateral, all boxes must be cast in place, no precast boxes will be
accepted. Class III RCP, 10 gauge CMP, or Class 200 HDPE are minimum requirements
for tiling materials in NMID facilities. Bedding and backfill shall meet requirements of
pipe manufacturer.
8. Any relocation or disturbance of the canal or lateral will require a minimum of concrete
lining or piping of the channel at the discretion of Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District.
9. RIP -RAP: Rip -rap is required at the end of bridges and conduits where the bank and
bottom are disturbed. The rip -rap shall be sized to protect the channel by acceptable
design (U.S. Bureau of Reclamation) methods but shall be minimum of 12 inch size.
September 20, 2017 - 1 -
10. LANDSCAPING: Landscaping along a Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District facility
may be allowed at the discretion of Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District on a case -by -
case basis. The only landscaping to be considered shall be grasses, small shrubs, class 1
ornamental or conifer trees where the foliage will not extend over the facility at full
growth or impede maintenance vehicles.
11. GRADING AROUND DISTRICT FACILITIES: Because of the impact that
development has had upon NMID facilities, the grading around or near the facility will
need to be reviewed. The exact extent of grading effect upon the facility is not
predictable since the soil conditions, water surface elevation, amount of water, whether
the facility is elevated above the surrounding ground or below the ground level or rodent
damage history. Some of the facilities, such as the Ridenbaugh Canal, can be elevated
above the ground on one or both sides that affect the pressure gradient and consequently
the seepage surrounding the facility. Since this is the case in some locations, the water
surface elevation, the soils, the possibility of a confining layer can affect the seepage and
cause the seepage water to travel beyond the easement line. Also, in cases of the facility
having the water surface elevation near or at the natural ground elevation, excavating
below the water surface can intercept the ground water. Any trenching or lowering of the
natural ground around this type of facility and affect the statuesque of the ground water
vs. seepage. Any toe drain or drains in this area may constitute a taking of water and
could affect the flow rate of the facility.
Thus, in order to protect the structural integrity, delivery of water or seepage loss, all
grading alongside a Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District canal, lateral or drain shall be
reviewed. All development along the facility shall be reviewed to determine if the
grading will have any impact upon the facility, such as:
1. Cutting into the bank of any facility.
2. Cutting into the bank of any facility which reduces the original cross section of
the facty.
3. Lowering the natural ground near a facility that is on a fill near the toe (point at
which the bank of the facility meets natural ground) of the embankment. Any
grading in this area will require test holes to determine if any seepage or ground
water is encountered, which could affect the structural integrity of the bank of the
facility. In addition, during the construction, the excavation in this area will need
to be monitored by NMID employees.
4. Lowering the natural ground around a facility not on a fill but excavated below
the facilities water surface in the facility.
5. Any grading of the natural ground within the easement of the facility.
6. Any utility crossing under the facility.
7. Any grading that will have an effect upon the access or maintenance of that
facility.

NAMPA & MERIDIAN IRRIGATION DISTRICT
TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
FOR LAND DEVELOPMENT
STORM WATER MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES: The design of a storm water management
system needs to address two distinct objectives; peak discharge and water quality. The
management of storm water discharges involves the design and implementation of a control
system to achieve the following objectives:
1. Protect all down stream facilities from peak storm water flows resulting from land
development by not exceeding pre -development flows.
2. Provide a method of maintaining water quality through best management practices.
PEAK DISCHARGE CALCULATIONS:
1. Storm water management requires the determination of two runoff parameters; peak rate
of discharge and runoff volume. Both parameters shall be used in the comparison of pre.
development and post -development conditions.
2. Peak rate of discharge calculations shall determine the size of sand/oil separators or pond
sizing for separation of sands and oils. Runoff volume calculations shall be used to
determine the size of detention/retention facilities.
3. Runoff peak rate of discharge shall be calculated using the appropriate methodology.
The peak rate of runoff for areas less than twenty-five (25) acres shall be calculated by
the rational method of derivatives. The SCS method shall be used for larger areas.
4. The equation for the rational method is:
Q =CIA]
Q =the peak runoff rate in cubic feet per second (CFS)
C = the runoff coefficient
I = the average rainfall intensity in inches per hour (in/hr), occurring at the time of
concentration (minutes).
tc = the time of concentration in minutes (min)
A = the size of drainage area (acres).
a) Typical >/c- values are provided in Exhibit A. All predevelopment flows will be
based upon a c value of 0.2.
b) The time of concentration (tc) is defined as the time required for runoff to travel
from the most distant point in the basin to the outlet. The time of concentration is
related to the slope and the runoff coefficient may be estimated from the nomo-
graph provided in Exhibit A. For overland travel distances greater than 1,000 feet,
the Izzard (1946), the Federal Aviation Agency (1970), or a SCS lag equation or
velocity chart may be used.
September 20, 2017 - 4 -
c) Rainfall intensity shall be based upon the intensity -duration curves depicted in
Exhibit 8. In all instances, a minimum time of concentration of five (5) minutes
should be used. A frequency of twenty-five (25) years shall be used for storm
water runoff calculations.
d) The size of the drainage area shall be the entire area of the development.
e) The peak rate of runoff for areas greater than twenty-five (25) acres shall be
calculated by the hydrograph analysis method as outlined in TR No. 55 (SCS
method) as supplemented and amended.
DETENTION/STORAGE FACILITIES:
1. Detention storage facilities are used in storm drainage systems to either extend system
capacities, to provide flow equalization, or to provide water quality enhancement.
Design of storage requires knowledge of rainfall and runoff Volumes.
2. The following criteria shall apply to detention volume calculations.
a. Storm duration shall be equal or greater than the time of concentration.
b. Minimum free board shall be one (1) foot.
c. Maximum outflow rate shall be equal to the predevelopment rate of runoff.
3. The sand/oil traps shall be designed to limit the velocity through traps to 9.5 fps. The
width of opening in the trap should be limited to <10% of the length of the box.
4. Development designers shall use the best available technology to accommodate storm
water management.
5. Type of facilities will be left up to the Developer but must be acceptable to Nampa &
Meridian Irrigation District.
6. Where detention facilities are deemed necessary, they shall accommodate runoff
generated from a minimum of a twenty-five (25) year storm using the modified Rational
Design Method or an approved method. Detention will be provided such that, after
Development the peak rate of outflow will not exceed the corresponding predevelopment
runoff rate.
7. Detention facilities shall be located as far horizontally from surface water and as far
vertically from groundwater as practical.
8. Detention facilities shall not intercept the seasonal groundwater table and should
maintain a minimum two (2) foot vertical separation from that groundwater table unless
constructed of impervious materials.
9. Detention outlets shall be designed to carry not more than the predevelopment flows and,
if necessary, energy dissipaters shall be installed on the outlet to prevent excessive
erosion.
September 20, 2017 - 5 -
INFILTRATION TRENCHES:
1. These facilities are sub -surface disposal units that include dry wells, percolation trenches
and percolations beds.
2. Any flow returned to Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District facilities must go through
standard sediment and grease trap when using infiltration trenches.
3. The design of infiltration facilities shall assume that the bottom of the trench is
impervious.
4. Test holes must be dug and results sent to Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District to show
the location of seasonal high groundwater.
5. Return flow to Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District facilities shall be no more than the
predevelopment flow prior to development, using a runoff coefficient of 0.2.

Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District recognizes that many questions arise from the signing of a
construction Contract for a Pressure Urban Irrigation System (PUIS). The draft contract itself
explains many things and if questions persist, either the District's personnel or attorney can
explain in more detail.
This pamphlet explains the District's internal record keeping and assessing and what occurs
once the contract is signed. These items are in the order in which they most likely will occur,
however, the needs of each pressure urban irrigation system may necessitate variances.
If, after you read this pamphlet, you have additional questions or require more detail, please
feel free to call the Asst. Secretary/Treasurer at the office number listed above.
IS IT NECESSARY TO HAVE A SIGNED CONTRACT WITH THE IRRIGATION DISTRICT?
Yes! It is necessary to have the construction contract written and approved by you and
the Irrigation District prior to beginning construction. Without a fully signed contract, the
District is severely limited in its activity relative to a Pressure Urban Irrigation System
which may result in excessive delays in your development.
ONCE A CONTRACT HAS BEEN SIGNED:
Exclusion of water rights are not allowed after the contract has been signed.
Lands previously excluded may reinstate their water right if the water right is still
available.
If the use of potable water is desired, as a before and after delivery season (backup)
source, then u must obtain the necessary agreement with the potable water source
and the Irrigation District. Keep in mind, depending upon the availability of water, the
anticipated delivery season is 15 April through 15 October of each year. If a backup
source is utilized the Irrigation District will be responsible for the payment to the potable
water source and will include this cost in the operation and maintenance levy for the
Pressure Urban Irrigation System.
AFTER THE CONTRACT FOR THE PUIS HAS BEEN SIGNED AND THE FINAL PLAT
RECEIVED:
The Irrigation District will segregate the parcel into individual lots and assign that system
with a specific code for assessing those costs associated with the operation and
maintenance of the Pressure Urban Irrigation System. Upon completion of construction
and transfer of ownership through a Bill of Sale and if necessary, a Warranty Deed, the
Irrigation District will own, operate and maintain the PUIS.
Accounting will assign account numbers to track the expenses incurred for the Pressure
Urban Irrigation System and suggest a levy for that system to the Board of Directors.
Currently, these costs result in a levy of approximately $90.00 per acre.
The Irrigation District will assess the individual lots for the regular Irrigation District Tax
and Operation and Maintenance along with the costs of Operation and Maintenance for
the Pressure Urban Irrigation System.
No land within the final plat will be exempt from the assessments unless it was
specifically excluded in the Construction Contract.
If you have questions concerning the specifications of the installation of a Pressure Urban
Irrigation System you should contact the District Water Superintendent, at 466-0663.

GENERAL INFORMATIONAL BROCHURE FOR YOUR URBAN IRRIGATION SYSTEM
AND
A
W-1I 4N NAMPA & MERIDIAN IRRIGATION DISTRICT'S ROLE
FOR SAFETY'S SAKE:
The water provided is for Irrigation Use Only!
FOR MAINTENANCE OR LINE LOCATION:
Call (208) 466-0663 for questions concerning items such as pressure, leaks and design
specifications or location of buried irrigation system main lines. Call at least 2 working days before you dig...
IF YOU DO NOT CALL, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL DAMAGESI
FOR ASSESSMENTS AND WATER RIGHT INFORMATION:
Call the Irrigation District office ... (208) 466-7861 Fax: (208) 463-0092
BENEFITS TO THE URBAN WATER USERS:
Within design limits, pressurized irrigation water is delivered between 40-60 psi (equivalent to the
pressure of a municipal system). Home sprinkler systems should be designed not to exceed 5 to 7 gallons per
minute per watering station.
Debris is filtered from the water to 1/16 of an inch. The District suggests using sprinklers that
accommodate 1/16 of an inch and larger, secondary filters should not be necessary.
Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District will perform all repairs to the main system, and the cost of those
repairs will be included in the assessments for operation and maintenance of that system. Individual
landowners will be responsible for their own sprinkler system, i.e. lawn and garden sprinklers.
Irrigation water can be scheduled for intermittent use 24 hours a day, 7 days a week depending upon
need and supply. By spreading the usage across a 24 hour period, the pump station and use of irrigation
water will be more efficient. Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District is responsible for equitable water allotment to
the main system lines.
Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District will handle all the assessments and collections of funds for the
operation and maintenance of the irrigation system. Your land may have water rights in another Irrigation
District, if so, you will receive a tax notice from both; however, Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District is
responsible for all pressure urban irrigation system issues.
The average cost to irrigate urban lots within our entire pressurized system is expected to be less
expensive annually than a system, which relies totally on more expensive domestic water for its irrigation. At
present time the approximate cost for the urban system is $90.00 per lot, based on a'/. acre lot.
Nampa &Meridian Irrigation District has several years of experience operating pressurized urban
irrigation systems.
Depending upon availability of water, systems will turn on approximately 15 April and will shut down
approximately 15 October of each season.
