Degradation Fee
Degradation Fee Formula:
This formula covers degradation for depreciation caused by intrusion into the right-of-
way. The depreciation applies to the original surface of the right-of-way and to the
overlays and seal -coats applied to the surface. The formula includes life expectancy
schedules for each and has an estimated cost per square yard based on the quality of the
right-of-way surface required for different levels of traffic. This formula creates a
degradation fee which is determined by the cost per square yard for street, overlay, and
seal -coat, multiplied by the depreciation schedule, multiplied by the area of the street
patch.
Degradation Fee:
(cost per square yard for street overlay and seal -coat x depreciation schedule rates) x
area of street patch = degradation fee
