An outlet structure should be installed at the existing outlet. <br /> 2. The ditch should be improved northward to 177th. St. <br /> 3. The ditch on the south side of 177th. St. should be improved <br /> eastward to the culvert on the east side of the Pfingston <br /> property. <br /> 4. (The existing culvert on the west side of the Pfingston <br /> property can be blocked.) <br /> 5. The channel northward through the Pfingston marsh should <br /> be cleared and relieved. <br /> 6. The field crossing i mile north of 177th. St. should be <br /> replaced and the ditch improved in this area. <br /> 7.
