S. Environmental. Protection Agency in reference to Mr. Borgen's drainage ditch from his gravel pit on Beaverloop Road to the culvert at Beaverloop Road. The agencies had advised that there was a possibility that Mr. Borgen would require a permit from their agencies in order to have the water from his property run into the Kenai River on the opposite side of Beaverloop Road. However, they could not make a determin- ation without observing the ditch themselves. Mrs. Horton advised that the City Administration had contacted Mr. Borgen on July 17, 1976 and asked .him the purpose of this ditch and his-plans for construction of the ditch. Mr. Borgen advised that the construction of the ditch was completed and that the purpose of the ditch was to aid in draining his gravel pit, as they had encountered water at a more shallow depth than they had expected, during this conversation. Janis ~~iiliams, City Attorney, stated that the City's only concern in this matter is that Mr. Borgen not dig below the natural water table, as stated in his application for extraction. The City is not concerned as to whether or not there is a drainage ditch on his property. The City must enforce its ordinance which states that an amendment to the application must be filed in this instance, which Mr. Borgen has agreed to do. The Commission expressed concern that Mr. Borgen completed the drainage ditch before filing an amendment to his application. Mr. Borgen stated that the ditch had been dug on July 4, 5 and 6, 1976 and he had discussed the matter with Phillip Aber and Deborah Daisy of City Administration prior to ahis dime and: was told to consider the.agplcation amended by Mrs. Daisy. Councilman Ambarian asked the date of the application for amendment. Mrs. Horton advised that it was July 16, 1976. Councilman Ambarian asked if lowering the water table would effect their development plan for the area upon completion of the excavation. Mr. Swanson stated that the ordinance stipulates that a lake is acceptable for development of the area, but at this time they do not plan to excavate below the existing water table. Mr. Swanson stated that the water is not draining :through the culvert at Beaverloop Road, but is remaining on their property and being absorbed back into the ground.
