.r . <br /> b. The proposed structures as indicated by the plans and letter of application will <br /> be reviewed by the local drainage or diking district officials for approval. Said diking or <br /> drainage district officials should request any alterations or revisions considered necessary <br /> in the plans before they approve the same. <br /> c. Upon approval of the plans for the proposed work by the diking or drainage <br /> district officials, they will be forwarded to the office of the District Engineer, Corps of <br /> Engineers, One Oak Plaza, Portland, Oregon (mailing address - P.O. Box 2946, Portland, <br /> Oregon 97208-2946), for his review and approval. The plans and application will then <br /> be examined by him in order to determine that the proposed structures are adequate, <br /> desirable, and permissible in order that the integrity of the levee shall not be endangered <br /> or the levee section encroached upon to the extent that it will result in an inherently <br /> dangerous flood hazard. If the plans submitted do not conform to these requirements, <br /> they will be returned to the applicant through the diking or drainage district officials in <br /> order that necessary revisions may be made, after which the plans may be resubmitted. <br /> d. Upon approval by the District Engineer of the Corps of Engineers and the local <br /> diking or drainage district, the plans will be so marked and signed. Three copies of the <br /> approved plans will be retained in the District Office of the Corps of Engineers and two <br /> copies will be returned to the drainage or diking district officials. The drainage or diking <br /> district officials will retain one copy of the approved plans and return one set to the <br /> applicant with a letter of approval permitting execution of the work in the manner <br /> indicated. <br /> 5. It is expected that any work performed by any person or agency under a letter of <br /> permission will conform rigidly to standard engineering practices and to specifications of <br /> the Corps of Engineers, if so indicated, particularly in the replacement of levee material <br /> or revetments disturbed during the course of the work. The letter of permission may in <br /> this regard require the presence of and supervision by a Government inspector to be <br /> provided by the Corps of Engineers. <br /> 6. The person or agency performing the work will be required to clean up the site of the <br /> work, redress the levee section, and seed the areas of new work to conform as nearly as <br /> possible to the conditions existing at the site prior to initiation of the work. <br /> 7. The information contained in this circular shall be in effect from the date of issue <br /> unless modified or rescinded. <br /> Dated this 7th day of October 1991. <br /> CgAe„,,,,, a Per: /cov,ft-a-- <br /> CHARLES A.W.
