An intensive study on ways to solve the surface drainage problem for new subdivisions proposed for the Highland area will be carried out by the Utah County planning staff, with assistance as-sistance from developers. This decision was made late Friday afternoon at a meeting of planning commissioners with L.D. Green, county surveyor, and some of ihe developers and engineers. Keith Richan, chairman of the planning commission, said the commission has been concerned con-cerned about surface drainage in the area which is developing ' rapidly. He said he had talked with Reed Thompson, president presi-dent of the Lehi Irrigation Company, and Mr. Thompson had stated emphatically that the irrigation company will not accept any drainage water in the irrigation ditches. Mr. Richan indicated the irrigation irri-gation company is also not interested in-terested in selling an interest in its ditch company to any developer. Mr. Green expressed the opinion that it would be cheaper and better if the developers had their own ditch systems, rather than relying on others to handle the water. Mr. Green has strongly opposed op-posed the use of sumps to handle han-dle drainage water. Last week several developers presented the award. Due to its recent organization, organiza-tion, this is the first "Service to Mankind" award presented by the Orem club. It will be presented annually from now on to honor a person who has performed some service in the community in an exemplary fashion. Mr. Hardy was chosen from a cross-section of worthy citizens considered by the club members. memb-ers. Ron Gooch served as head of the program. v- t ft i r L.nrrL - sstsf challenged this stand at the county planning commission meeting, stating that the LDS Church uses sumps extensively, extensive-ly, and Orem City requires them to handle surface drainage. drain-age. Mr. Green said he had consulted con-sulted with the Orem City Engineer, En-gineer, who had reported he really didn't like sumps, and always required a secondary drainage system along with a sump. Mr. Green said the required way of testing land to see if a sump can be used is to dig a hole 12 feet deep and four feet' across and ruryi lire hydrant into it full force fr two hours. The water must go out within two hours, he reported. Mr. Green declared that Orem Or-em has the best ground in the county for sumps, but he questioned ques-tioned their use in other areas of the county. Sumps are opposed by the Mosquito Control Department, by the Health Department, and by the Road Department, Mr. Green emphasized. He said there is a danger in areas where septic tanks are used that the water will filter from the drain fields back into the sumps. The surveyor reported that Orem officials said even under the best conditions that sumps tend to silt over and sooner or later cause problems. Mr. Richan declared that any drainage system put in Highland High-land is going to require cleaning clean-ing and maintenance. Clyde Naylor, engineer for several developers, said the sumps in Orem had been there about two- and a half years, which was not long enough to determine how long they last. He admitted however, that in a few areas where the soil was questionable, "they didn't last any time at all." Yukus Y. Inouye, county commissioner, suggested that the planning commission accept ac-cept a proposal by Larry Bartholomew that a service area ar-ea be set up to finance a solution solu-tion to the drainage problem. He suggested that only one part of Highland be designated as a service area at present. Mr. Richan opposed that idea, stating that if a service V ' . nit i l .. m P Ti Mil .J-'W area were set up it ought to cover all the land which will be developed. Mr. Naylor suggested that a new system be studied whereby curbs and gutters would be eu- minated in favor of gravel shoulders which would allow much of the surface water to dissipate. He said that the storm drain project in Provo had shown that where there were no curbs there was no accumulation of water from the recent storms. Mr. Richan stated during the discussion that Highland should be incorporated. "I, think those popJel.vUp ".there Oshould bp governing themselves," h said.

The Utah Legislature appropriated appro-priated $1 million to construct sidewalks and other pedestrian safety projects along state highways. The Legislature directed dir-ected the Utah Department of Transportation to administer the funds and allocate them to projects. To get the program started, Assistant Director of Transportation Transpor-tation C. V. Anderson has sent letters to all Utah city and county officials asking them to submit their recommendations for pedestrian safety projects to the District Transportation Director for their area not later than May 15th. The funds will become available July 1. Mr. Anderson said that after the cities and counties have submitted their proposed projects, transportation officials offi-cials will arrange them in priority on the basis of existing rights-of-way, auto-pedestrian accident experience, average daily automobile traffic, average aver-age daily pedestrian traffic, average daily school age pedestrian pedes-trian traffic and other factors One jackrabbit for every five to ten acres of land is usually considered a high population.

"It is the responsibility of those people up there to initiate something we can live with," said Mark Johnson, member of the planning commission. Mr. Green suggested that the planning plan-ning commission should never accept a preliminary subdivision subdivi-sion plat unless it is accompanied accompan-ied by a separate drainage plan. ; Mr. Green said he tis willing f" "j mak-necessary."tests for umps, But he felt all pdssibili-- pdssibili-- fies for handling the problem should be explored. PJante rogram set forth in the Safe Sidewalks Bill. Once the project priorities have been established, he said the funds will be programmed for projects as far down the list as they will stretch. Mr. Anderson told local government officials that since the amount of money available is not sufficient to meet all of the pedestrian safety needs along Utah highways, the Department is attempting to maximize the number of projects constructed by encouraging encour-aging local governments to provide up to 50 percent of the cost of the projects. He said this participation may be in the form of right-of-way, labor and materials. Mr. Anderson said cities and counties are encouraged to design and direct the construction construc-tion of the projects themselves, however the UDOT will do it for them on request. i olLo If a f S HIT II- -Br ; B; b a, - ' 9 i B'dw.9B6 K12mAl483 OTHER SIZES 4" TO 24" coram pipe. inaiGATioN md drainage, au sizes ALL PflCCS ARE PLANT PICK-UP , , - SALT LAKE: 333 So.
