Description

This photo taken of standing water in the ditch 1-2 hours after the rain stopped from storms that passed through this afternoon. The drain pipe at the end of the concrete ditch is at least partially plugged at some point along its length. There was still standing water about 3 hours later. (Approximate location of mouth of pipe is indicated.) The mouth of the pipe was actually open and clear before the rain so the blockage must be further down inside the pipe. The pipe empties below into a ditch which starts at the city limit so better than 90% of the length of the pipe is in the city limits.
