uses in excess of those permitted by the zoning existing on the date of application, subject
to conditions. In the event of the failure to comply with any condition, the property shall revert
to the zoning that existed on the date of application. It is, therefore, stipulated and agreed
that either revocation due to the failure to comply with any conditions, does not reduce any
rights that existed on the date of application to use, divide, sell or possess the property and
that there would be no diminution in value of the property from the value it held on the date
of application due to such revocation of the Zone Change. The Zone Change enhances the
value of the property above its value as of the date the Zone Change is granted and reverting
to the prior zoning results in the same value of the property as if the Zone Change had never
been granted.
j. There is a canal that runs along Camelback so there may have to be some deviations from
the Urban Principal Arterial Cross Section to adjust to the canal. Any such deviation must be
approved by MCDOT and/or other affected jurisdictions. (C-44-21-236-X-00)

and that there would be no diminution in value of the property from the value it held on the
date of application due to such revocation or expiration of the Special Use Permit. The Zone
Change enhances the value of the property above its value as of the date the Zone Change
is granted and reverting to the prior zoning results in the same value of the property as if the
Zone Change had never been granted.
j. Prior to commencement of construction, a qualified biologist will delineate a suitable
nesting habitat for LeConte’s and Bendire’s Thrashers.
k. All costs or expenses associated with the biologist and their work in association with the
development shall be borne by the property developer.
l. The property developer shall submit a letter from AFGD approving the credentials of the
selected biologist.
m. Construction will be phased so that ground-disturbing activities in a suitable nesting
habitat for LeConte’s and Bendire’s Thrashers will be conducted outside of the breeding
season for LeConte’s and Bendire’s Thrashers (defined as January through June) to the
greatest extent practicable.
n. If ground-disturbing activities in a suitable nesting habitat for LeConte’s and Bendire’s
Thrashers must be conducted during the breeding season (defined as January through
June), a preconstruction survey to identify active nests would be performed by a qualified
biologist prior to the commencement of ground-disturbing activities.
Formal Meeting Minutes
04/21/2021
Page 10 of 68
o. If active LeConte’s or Bendire’s Thrashers nests are found during pre-construction surveys
or during construction, a spatial buffer would be established around the nest and monitored
by the qualified biologist. Ground-disturbing activities within the buffer would be postponed
until the qualified biologist confirms that the nest is no longer active.
p. Written documentation of the biologist’s findings regarding active nests shall be provided
in writing to and for acceptance by the Zoning Inspector or his or her designee prior to
initiating construction activity. (C-44-21-237-X-00)
Chairman Sellers introduced item #10 and asked Jennifer Pokorski, Director of
Planning and Development, and Darren Gerard, Deputy Director of Planning and
Development, to come forward for items #10 and #11.
Ms. Pokorski reviewed the agenda item, a zone change, and displayed a map of the
area on the screen. She said there were five letters of support (citing economic benefits)
and eight letters of opposition from the “Birding” community. Maricopa County Audubon
Society says this area is popular for bird watching and is a nesting site for several
species including the LeConte’s Thrasher.
Formal Meeting Minutes
04/21/2021
Page 11 of 68
Ms. Pokorski continued to the next slide and said the applicant, Sun Streams
Expansion, has set aside nearly one third of the site to protect birds, existing habitats,
and vegetation. She pointed out in the above slide the area where the solar panels will
be located and the areas where additional land has been added to the Wildlife Corridor.
She stated there were discussions between the Audubon Society and Sun Streams and
in response to the concerns expressed by the Audubon Society, additional conditions
“j” through “p” as listed in the agenda have been added. The Planning Commission
voted unanimously to approve this item.
The Chairman asked the Clerk if there were any speakers on this item. The Clerk said
there were three speaker forms received. The first one is from Carolyn Oberholtzer,
attorney with the law firm of Bergin, Frakes, Smalley & Oberholtzer, PLLC. She was on
the phone representing the applicant.
Ms. Oberholtzer thanked the Planning and Development Staff and stakeholders for all
the work that has been done on this project since it began last fall and started her
presentation.
Formal Meeting Minutes
04/21/2021
Page 12 of 68
She reviewed the above slide showing the existing energy projects and infrastructure
nearby. She said the proposed location of the new Sun Streams Solar was selected
because of the existing infrastructure of Sun Streams 1-4. The compilation of Sun
Streams 1-5 will generate approximately 900 megawatts of solar power and will transmit
the power to the Hassayampa substation indicated by the triangle on the map. Ms.
Oberholtzer explained the interconnected nature of the existing power grid with the
proposed Sun Stream Solar project makes this an ideal location for solar power
generation.
Ms. Oberholtzer reviewed the above slide which included the total acreage, make up
and surrounding landmarks for reference.
Formal Meeting Minutes
04/21/2021
Page 13 of 68
Ms. Oberholtzer reviewed the above slide listing attributes of the project. She said Sun
Streams was putting aside one third of the project acreage to be devoted to a native
plants and wildlife corridor as seen on the above slide. This aspect of the project was
particularly important to the stakeholders who were concerned with a Thrasher habitat.
Ms. Oberholtzer said there was also a financial benefit because two thirds of the
developed land is part of the State Land Trust and so would generate long term income
to the K-12 public school beneficiaries.
Ms. Oberholtzer reviewed the above slide showing the adjustments made to include
increased wildlife corridors, addressing the concerns of the stakeholders and the
Audubon Society. Through the help of the Audubon Society, the nesting behaviors and
habitat for the LeConte’s and Bendire’s Thrasher bird population were further
considered, and stipulations were made in the agreement to protect that population
going forward. Stipulation C. in the agreement (as seen on the agenda) says that any
substantial change in the conservation area would require a major amendment. The
biologist identified the major nesting areas and season of the Thrashers and
Formal Meeting Minutes
04/21/2021
Page 14 of 68
established a protocol for managing the existing bird population during the construction
phase of the project. This protocol was reflected in the stipulations as seen on the slide
below.
Ms. Oberholtzer said the above stipulations are summarized as preconstruction
requiring the developer to engage a Game and Fish approved biologist to determine
where, within the disturbance area there are suitable nesting habitats. This information
will help inform the developer how to sequence the project. The above slide lists the
stipulations (as listed on the agenda) that will become part of the project. These
stipulations are enforceable by the County to protect the wildlife and not jeopardize the
quality of the Sun Streams Solar Expansion project.
Chairman Sellers asked his colleagues if they had any comments.
Supervisor Hickman said it was a very thorough presentation and he appreciated all
the work being done in consideration of the stakeholders.
Supervisor Gates echoed Supervisor Hickman’s comments and asked how the 385
megawatts of power being generated compares with other solar projects in the area.
Ms. Oberholtzer replied the other solar projects in the area generate between 150 and
250 megawatts so this would be the largest power generator in the area. Supervisor
Gates said he appreciated the great job they were doing to address the natural habitat
while providing a significant amount of clean energy.
Chairman Sellers asked the Clerk for public testimony on this item. The Clerk said
Deron Lawrence was in favor and would speak only if necessary. She stated Mark
Horlings, Conservation Chairman of the Maricopa Audubon Society was in opposition
and on the telephone to speak.
Mr. Horlings thanked the Board of Supervisors, Barbara Oberholtzer, representing Sun
Streams, and Adam Cannon from Maricopa County Planning and Development for all
their time in helping to address and alleviate some of the concerns. He stated this is
not a random stretch of desert, but a specific area known to many “Birders” with two of
the four species in this location (LeConte’s and Bendire’s). This area is also known for
theThrashers’ nesting behavior in the area. Mr. Horlings said the publication, Birds of
Formal Meeting Minutes
04/21/2021
Page 15 of 68
Phoenix and Maricopa County, Arizona feature a LaConte’s Thrasher on the cover and
identify this development location as a unique natural dwelling to view these birds. He
said that when they first heard about the development, an extensive study was done by
two biologists to establish the bird population in the proposed area. The results were
that there were more birds in a wider area than initially thought. Mr. Horlings said there
were two stipulations that had not been addressed. He said he appreciates that
construction will not take place during breeding season (unless necessary). Stipulation
“O” says there will be a buffer zone but does not specifically state how much space that
is from the nesting sites. He is also asking for documentation from the biologists on the
nest avoidance strategies and the effects of development on the wildlife population not
just during construction but on an ongoing basis. He said development will continue but
he would like accurate information on the effects that development has on the
environment, resulting in the gradual fading away of habitats. Maricopa Audubon
Society supports renewable energy but feels it is unfortunate that this location was
selected.
Chairman Sellers thanked Mr. Horlings for his input and all the collaboration that has
gone into this development.
Supervisor Hickman asked Ms. Oberholtzer about the possibility of utilizing the biologist
expertise in this process to document this project and process to minimize impact of
development on wildlife in the future. He said there will be other projects and if there
can be attention paid to the preservation of wildlife as a matter of course, it will help
balance wildlife and progress in the future.
Ms. Oberholtzer said the biologist will be documenting the data collected and that data
will become part of the County record and available to the Maricopa Audubon Society.
She said data collected will help establish the spatial buffers utilized and the activity
documented during and after breeding season will be valuable information going
forward. She noted they will continue to collaborate with the biologist.
Supervisor Hickman stated he wanted to make a clear and concise statement on this
matter, for future reference on how we came to this decision. Supervisor Hickman said
he shares the concerns expressed by the Maricopa Audubon Society and believes
those concerns have been adequately addressed by the applicant’s proposal and the
conditions added by the Commission which include having a biologist identifying bird
habitat and the nesting access to protect via site design and construction schedules.
He said this stipulation is a potential model to guide a future construction project
correctly. He stated the clean power generation out there is probably a better protection
device for the birds than other construction that might go there later.
Supervisor Gallardo said he has had several discussions with both sides of this project,
and he is satisfied with the consideration of both parties to move forward with the stated
stipulations in place.

a. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Site Plan entitled
"Cars N More", consisting of 1 full-size sheet, dated February 1, 2021, and stamped received
February 2, 2021, except as modified by the following conditions.
b. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Narrative Report
entitled "Revised Narrative for 25312 S. Lime Dr., Queen Creek, AZ 85142, Case No.
Z2020089", consisting of 2 pages, stamped received February 2, 2021, except as modified
by the following conditions.
c. The following Planning Engineering conditions shall apply:
1.
The subject premises is located within the County's Urbanized Area and will disturb
more than one (1) acre. A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Permit (SWPPP), issued by the
County (PND), will be required prior to issuance of any building permits required for site
development.
See: https://www.maricopa.gov/DocumentCenter/View/6577
2.
Engineering review of planning and/or zoning cases is for conceptual design only.
All development and engineering design shall be in conformance with Section 1205 of the
Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance; Drainage Policies and Standards; Floodplain
Regulations for Maricopa County; MCDOT Roadway Design Manual; and current
engineering policies, standards and best practices at the time of application for construction.
3.
Based on the conceptual design nature of the information submitted, changes to the
site layout and/or a reduction in the number of building lots may be necessitated by the final
engineering design of the drainage infrastructure.
4.
Detailed Grading and Drainage (Infrastructure) Plans must be submitted with the
application for Building Permits
d. This special use permit is valid for a period of 10 years and shall expire on April 21, 2031,
or upon termination of the use for a period of 90 or more days, whichever occurs first. All site
improvements associated with the special use permit shall be removed within 90 days of
such expiration or termination of use.
e. Noncompliance with any Maricopa County Regulation, including but not limited to County
Air Quality Regulations, shall be grounds for initiating a revocation of this Special Use Permit
as set forth in the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance.
f. The granting of this change in use of the property has been at the request of the applicant,
with the consent of the landowner. The granting of this approval allows the property to enjoy
uses in excess of those permitted by the zoning existing on the date of application, subject
to conditions. In the event of the failure to comply with any condition, and at the time of
Formal Meeting Minutes
04/21/2021
Page 17 of 68
expiration of the Special Use Permit, the property shall revert to the zoning that existed on
the date of application. It is, therefore, stipulated and agreed that either revocation due to
the failure to comply with any conditions, or the expiration of the Special Use Permit, does
not reduce any rights that existed on the date of application to use, divide, sell or possess
the property and that there would be no diminution in value of the property from the value it
held on the date of application due to such revocation or expiration of the Special Use Permit.
The Special Use Permit enhances the value of the property above its value as of the date
the Special Use Permit is granted and reverting to the prior zoning results in the same value
of the property as if the Special Use Permit had never been granted. (C-44-21-235-X-00)
Jennifer Pokorski, Director of Planning and Development, reviewed agenda item #11
stating there was more opposition than support and the Planning Commission voted
unanimously 9 to 0 to oppose this item saying this proposal was incompatible with the
area.
Chairman Sellers asked the Clerk if there were any registered speakers or comments.
The Clerk said none were received.
Chairman Sellers said this proposal is in District 1 and he appreciates the applicant’s
interest in using this property as a storage facility. He said he shares the concerns of
the Commission and the surrounding property owners and that this location is not
appropriate for the stated use.

RIO VERDE FOOTHILLS DOMESTIC WATER IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT
ESTABLISHMENT HEARING
Convene a public hearing to solicit comments and consider the petition to establish the Rio
Verde Foothills Domestic Water Improvement District, pursuant to Arizona Revised Statutes
Title 48, Chapter 6, Article 1.
A petition was filed with the Superintendent of Streets on February 17, 2021 for the
establishment of the Rio Verde Foothills Domestic Water Improvement District. The
proposed improvement district, is non-contiguous and bounded by the McDowell Mountain
Regional Park to the South; Tonto National Forest to the north; City of Scottsdale to the west;
and Tonto National Forest north of Dixileta Drive, Dixileta Drive west to 172nd Street south
to Rio Verde Drive, Rio Verde Drive east to 176th Street, 176th Street to the McDowell
Mountain Regional Park comprise the east boundary.
Supervisory District No. 2 (C-64-21-188-X-01)
Formal Meeting Minutes
04/21/2021
Page 22 of 68
Chairman Sellers asked Supervisor Chucri to make opening remarks on this item.
Supervisor Chucri acknowledged that water is a sacred resource in Arizona. He said a
task force was formed in 2013 and this issue has been ongoing to the present. The
County acts as the facilitator and is working to bring the sides together. Supervisor
Chucri said in 2019, he asked then County Attorney Bill Montgomery to get an opinion
from the Attorney General regarding a Domestic Water Improvement District (DWID)
with non-contiguous properties. It was determined that the DWID can be non-
contiguous and is under the direction of Maricopa County Department of Transportation
(MCDOT), Superintendent of Streets. Supervisor Chucri said there have been meetings
with the City of Scottsdale and the new Mayor of Scottsdale because their role is critical
in the hauling of water to Rio Verde Foothills in the past. He said the County is listening
and will proceed when all information is available. Jennifer Toth, Director of MCDOT,
and Jennifer Pokorski, Director of Planning and Development, were in attendance for a
presentation.
Ms. Toth thanked Chairman Sellers and members of the Board. She said agenda item
#18 is to convene a public hearing and consider the petition to establish the Rio Verde
Foothills Domestic Water Improvement District (DWID). Title 48 of Arizona Revised
Statutes allows DWIDs to be established for the acquisition, the construction, or repair
of water works for the delivery of water for domestic purposes. A citizen driven petition
was filed with the County Superintendent of Streets to establish the Rio Verde Foothills
DWID. The proposed Rio Verde Foothills DWID is bounded as seen on the map by
McDowell Mountain Regional Park to the south, the Tonto National Forest to the north,
City of Scottsdale to the west, and approximately 176th Street to the east. The proposed
DWID however is non-contiguous meaning only the property owners that have signed
the petition will be a part of the DWID and subject to taxation and assessments by the
DWID. As of 5:00 PM last night (April 20, 2021), property owners representing 186
properties within this boundary seek to form the DWID. Accordingly, only those included
properties will benefit from the water supply and services provided by the DWID.
Counties are charged by state statute with certain responsibilities related to the creation
of these DWIDs, namely upon receipt of a petition for the establishment of the DWID,
the Board of Supervisors must set a date for public hearing on the petition not later than
40 days after the acceptance of the petition. The petition was accepted by the
Superintendent of Streets as meeting all legal requirements on February 17, 2021.
Following the public hearing and upon consideration of all objections, state statute says
the Board of Supervisors shall vote on the approval of the formation of the DWID if the
petition is signed by the requisite number of owners of real property and its formation
will promote the public convenience, necessity, or welfare. In addition, a DWID located
within 6 miles of an incorporated city or town must obtain the consent of the governing
body of the city or town. The petitioners have obtained consent from Scottsdale,
Carefree and Fountain Hills as required by state law. Ms. Toth said she would be happy
to answer any questions.
Chairman Sellers asked the Clerk how many speakers were signed on for this item.
The Clerk said there were currently 22 speakers’ forms received: Eight in favor; and 14
in opposition. The Clerk said the office received 98 letters and comments in favor and
102 letters or comments in opposition. She said all these comments were shared with
the Board and with the Superintendent of Streets.
Karen Nabity, resident and applicant of Rio Verde Foothills DWID was on the phone
with a slide presentation.

Four slides from the Scottsdale City Council meeting were shown with no audio. Ms.
Nabity summarized the video saying the Rio Verde Foothills is not within the Scottsdale
jurisdiction and said discussions started in 2016 regarding the need for Rio Verde
Foothills to find their own source of water. The focus on this video was on the water
supplies for Scottsdale and the inability for City of Scottsdale to continue to support the
water needs of unincorporated Rio Verde Foothills. There was a slide that showed a
graph of the projected timeline for water shortages to occur.
Ms. Nabity briefly covered the Council Member comments and the importance of acting
on this water issue immediately.

Ms. Nabity emphasized the importance of the Board of Supervisors approval of this
DWID. She thanked the Board for their time and offered to answer questions.
Chairman Sellers said the Board would continue to hear from the other speakers on
this item. The following individuals were registered to speak in opposition and a bullet
points summary of the reiterated oppositions were given.
Jim Johnston, resident of Rio Verde Foothills, spoke in opposition.
Andy Gaona, attorney with Coppersmith Brockelman in Phoenix, spoke in opposition
on behalf of a contingent in Rio Verde Foothills.
Cristina Jackman was called on with no response, her comments were read out loud
by Lisa Kelley.
Daniel Dorchinsky, resident of Rio Verde Foothills, spoke in opposition.

Lisa Kelley, resident, spoke in opposition.
Jeff McDowell was called on with no response.

Jeremy Haskins, resident, and civil engineer spoke in opposition.
Michael Beethe, attorney for a property owner, spoke in opposition
.
Mark Sebright, resident, spoke in opposition.
Damon Bruns, resident, spoke in opposition.
The following is a summary of the stated oppositions:
2,400 parcels in Rio Verde Foothills and most parcel owners do not want the
DWID.
Board of DWID and those forming the district will have too much power.
Potential to set off immense litigation in the state.
This proposed action does not meet the criteria for the cited Arizona Revised
Statute.
Counter petition to the Board in January 2021 with over 668 signatures
Misinformation on availability of water.
Environmental impact study/hydrology testing needed.
The research being done is not accurate and no clear plan forward.
Lack of transparency.
Well digging and the effect on the existing wells.
Impact of DWID will be far reaching. Find a solution that will unite not divide.
The following individuals spoke in favor.
Jennifer Simpson, resident, spoke in favor. She stated she is a petitioner and a potential
DWID board member. She is on a shared well and relies on hauled water. Ms. Simpson
said the “counter petitions” had many invalid signatures and multiple signatures per
household. Additionally, the petitions did not have accompanying information or
declarations for signers. She said verbal misinformation was given to the residents.
John Jouas was called on and did not respond.
John Hornewer was called on and had a poor connection.
Carmela Lizzo, resident, spoke in favor. She stated the meetings have not been held
in secret and Supervisor Chucri was at their first meeting. Ms. Lizzo said she was
approached by an opposition volunteer with a blank sheet of paper (petition) to sign
with no supporting information. She said a lot of the opposition has been perpetuated

through Facebook, not facts. She stated a solution should have been proposed four
years ago.
John and Dorene Hornewer are residents and he has been a water hauler for 20 years.
He stated the dams are low, there is an ongoing drought and wells are not a solution.
He said the City of Scottsdale has put the community on notice and will refuse to supply
water. Desert Hills and New River had a similar situation with City of Phoenix a few
years ago and it is an example of what can happen when a reliable water source is not
established. He asked the Board to please muddle through the misinformation because
with the drought conditions increasing, the DWID is the only viable solution at this time.
He has worked with DWIDs throughout the state for the past 20 years and they work.
Kip Micuda was called on and did not respond
Jenny Powers was called on and did not respond
Supervisor Chucri asked Ms. Pokorski if permits were being “handed out like candy”.
Ms. Pokorski stated that state law does not allow the County to deny a permit for lack
of water.
Supervisor Chucri said there have been many meetings in Rio Verde. He invited the
Director of Arizona Department of Water Resources to a meeting to assist with
information on this subject. Growth is coming and we are doing what we can to reach
a solution that will work for all concerned. The County has hired Mike Pearce, attorney
with Gammage & Burnham, who specializes in water law. There is a need for additional
meetings on both sides of the issue and patience is needed as we work through the
process. He said he would like to continue this until May.
Supervisor Gates said he appreciates Supervisor Chucri’s leadership on this issue. He
mentioned the water issue that occurred in Desert Hills and New River a few years ago.
Supervisor Gates said he agreed that continuing this item would be best.
Supervisor Hickman echoed Supervisor Gates comments and asked how much water
is being hauled into the community and how much water is being pulled from the
aquafer. Ms.Pokorski said 700 homes use water hauling with several different water
hauling companies so there is no precise number. Supervisor Hickman suggested it
might be illuminating for the community to have some general numbers on what water
use has been.

overall mandated function of prosecution of criminal cases. Approval of this agreement
allows for reimbursement of overtime paid to the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office detective
assigned to the DEA Task Force starting March 15th, 2021. The purpose of the agreement
is to enhance disruption of the illicit drug traffic in Maricopa County and the State of Arizona
by immobilizing targeted trafficking violators and organizations. The County Attorney has
cooperated with the DEA since 1998. While the agreement allows for the reimbursement of
overtime, it is contingent upon the availability of funds. The County Attorney is prepared to

This Immunization grant award is reoccurring and has been awarded to the department since
1993. The grant does not require an in-kind match; indirect cost is fully recoverable; and
ongoing cash contributions are not required. The grant award is a mandated function and
provides a benefit to the citizens by ensuring that immunization coverage levels in the
County’s child, adolescent, and adult populations improve for both public and private health
care recipients. The grant award is not competitive. There are no costs that will need to be
absorbed by the department’s operating budget.
Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure
limitation, and therefore expenditure of the revenues is not prohibited by the budget law. This
Amendment does not alter the budget constraining expenditures of local revenues duly
adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. Funding for this Agreement is provided
by a Grant from ADHS and will not affect the County’s general fund.

Authorize the designee, to sign all application documents related to these grant funds, as
applicable. The grant award is one time and there is no cash or in-kind match requirement.
At this time it is not known if indirect costs are allowed. Future ongoing cash contributions
are not required after the grant period. The grant award is not a mandated function but will
be used to combat the public health and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The
grant award is allocated to counties based on their share of the U.S. population.
Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure
limitation, and therefore, expenditure of the funds is not prohibited by the budget law. (C-49-

ON-CALL CONTRACT WITH WEST CONSULTANTS, INC FOR DEPTH AREA
REDUCTION FACTOR STUDY
Award Contract FCD 2020C014 On-Call Services for the Depth Area Reduction Factor
(DARF) Study to WEST Consultants, Inc. (WEST) to provide professional engineering
services. The contract will be effective for 730 calendar days from the date of execution or
the expenditure of $500,000, whichever comes first. The Flood Control District of Maricopa
Country (District) and WEST will mutually agree to a detailed scope of work for each work
assignment. This is a qualifications-based selection in accordance with the Maricopa County
Procurement Code, Article 5, Paragraph 504 and Article 5 Procurement Procedures Manual,
Chapter II – Section 2.
Engineers use rainfall depths developed by NOAA to complete studies that identify and
evaluate flood hazards. These values are also used to design drainage facilities (culverts,
basins, bridges, etc.). The rainfall depth is the depth that is expected to occur at a point or
points in a study area, typically a watershed. However, this depth should not be used over
the entire watershed because the rainfall will be overestimated. A depth-area reduction
factor (DARF) is used to convert the point rainfall to an equivalent uniform depth over the
study area. This factor is used to account for the observation that average precipitation
intensity decreases as the area of the storm increases.
The current Drainage Design Manual, Hydrology Volume includes reduction factors
developed in 1974 for the 6-hr storm event and 1984 for the 24-hr storm event. Recent
studies have been compared to gage data and other storm evidence, and have shown that
updates are needed. In many cases the DARF should be increased, which would decrease
the rainfall values used for a watershed. For instance, if a project includes a design of a
culvert, this update could potentially decrease the required size of the culvert.
This Agenda Item impacts all Supervisor Districts. (C-69-21-079-X-00)
