d. The levee crown should be graded as necessary to drain freely and to <br /> allow access for maintenance equipment. Depressions which hold water and any <br /> settlement or erosion of the crown should be backfilled and compacted. Ruts were <br /> observed on the access road between Greenhill and Fir Butte Road. Ruts like this <br /> can prevent vehicular access during periods of high rainfall. <br /> Your on-going channel clearing operations are showing real progress. The <br /> scheduled clearing downstream of Polk Street will be a•great improvement. It was <br /> good to see that the used automobile tires noted in previous inspections near <br /> Station 245+00 have been removed. <br /> This inspection was made prior to the area's seasonal high water period to <br /> give you an opportunity to correct any deficiencies prior to winter storms. <br /> The Amazon Creek Flood Control System is sufficiently in compliance with <br /> maintenance standards to be eligible for rehabilitation assistance. If we can be <br /> of further service, please contact me at 503-221-6099. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> D. LESLIE MILLER, P. E. <br /> Chief, Emergency Management Branch <br />
