The United States' Sundell Lateral lie 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 a federal easement 20' northerly and 18' southerly of the Sundell Lateral
centerline. Whereas this area is for the operation and maintenance of our facility, no
activity should hinder our ability to do so.
Fencing (as may be required) must be constructed just off of Boise Project facilities, to
insure public safety and prevent encroachments.
Wording on the preliminary and final recorded plat needs to be noted that this
development must adhere to Idaho Statutes, Title 42-1209.
Whereas, these easements are 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.
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.
Crossing agreements must be secured and signed by all parties prior to March 1St 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 15th of each year. However, on a case by case basis,
overhead utilities and utilities boring underneath a Project facility may be allowed after
March 15th if reviewed and approved by the Boise Project.
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.
Boise Project Board of Control requests an irrigation and drainage plan for review.
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
