1388 Village share nrovi:ded the work undertaken is consistent with the preliminary plan for the ponding area and would. not be duplicated in final construction. The cost of operating the pumping station was estimated at X360.00 a year. It was estimated that the ponding area would be flooded for a maximum of 8 hours during a 25 year storm, For most normal rains, it wouldn~t be more than a few hours. Pumps they plan to use have a capacity of around 1!t cu ft per second. A. C. Kaechele, 15lt2 W. Idaho, J. C.
