Tract No. 43528 is located near Soledad Canyon Road and Sierra Highway, in the City of Santa Clarita, as shown on Exhibit A. The subsurface drainage facilities consists of six hydroaugers (horizontal perforated drain pipes, each approximately 200 feet long), three observation wells with pumps in them, four observation wells without pumps and a pump station to.dispose of the accumulation of any water within the fill area of the development. The drainage facilities are shown on Exhibit A. Maintenance and operation of the subsurface drainage facilities involves: 1. Periodic inspection, monitoring, and evaluations. 2. Annual cleaning of the six hydroaugers. 3. Maintenance of the one pump station. 4. Annual geologist's review and evaluation with report and recommendations. 5. Maintenance and monitoring of the observation wells and pumps in each well. The estimated total annual cost to provide this maintenance and installation of drainage devices is $25,917.
