County Engineer August 24, 1999 Charles Wiedenfeld Wiedenfeld Water Works P O Box 418 Center Point, TX 78010 RE: Underground Utility Cuts on Kerrville South and Codrington Leonard Odom, Jr. Road Administrator You requested a variance to trenching requirements to install water lines on Kerr County right of way and cross the roadway in two places. Commissioners Court granted the variance in Court Order # 25945 dated August 9, 1999. You informed our office you would begin construction August 16, 1999. The site was inspected August 24, 1999. We found the following 1. The ditch depth on right of way (not road crossing) is only 16 to 18 inches deep. TNRCC requires 24" minimum to top of pipe. 2. The road crossing was to be 32". The road crossing includes the complete right of way including the ditch. Your cut in the ditch is only 16 to 18 inches. 3. The road was not saw cut. 4. There was improper signage, and a County sign needs to be reinstalled. 5. The ditches are still open and the permit states, "no more than 5 working days." This utility installation is substandard, therefore, this matter will be placed on the Septemeber 13~ Commissioners Court Agenda seeking enforcement of the Kerr County Subdivision Regulations.
