Construction
- All construction in and around the ditch
must be approved by the Board of Directors.
Unauthorized changes to the ditch and easement may result in legal action by company.
- Please take precautions when driving large equipment and trucks, such as: dump trucks, concrete mixers, large rollover trash containers, etc. over driveway culverts without taking appropriate precautions. Placing heavy-duty steel plates over driveway culverts is one method to insure the culverts beneath driveways are properly protected.

If it is necessary to divert flowing water for a construction project, please contact the company.
- Consent is also required to place concrete, or other permanent-type material over existing ditch or junction boxes, other than previously approved driveway culverts.
