Refer to the <br />photographs included herein as Exhibit "A". <br />Additionally, it was noted that the entire <br />downstream face of the embankment has been overgrown <br />with small timber and heavy underbrush which is <br />preventing the proper maintenance and mowing of the <br />embankment slope. Should this condition be allowed to <br />continue to exist, further damage to the embankment <br />will result. <br />It is recommended that the entire downstream slope <br />of the embankment be cleared of all timber and <br />underbrush to facilitate the proper maintenance and <br />mowing of this surface. Upon clearing the embankment <br />slope, a thorough inspection should be conducted to <br />identify and repair any possible eroded areas and/or <br />seepage. <br />To alleviate further structural damage to the <br />concrete rip-rap on the upstream face of the <br />embankment, it is recommended that all plants, grass <br />and timber be removed from the joints of the rip-rap <br />panels and the joints thoroughly cleaned and sealed <br />with a flexible sealant. Removal methods utilizing <br />sand blasting or water pressure jetting may be used. A <br />root growth retardant should be applied. <br />The City has expressed its' desire to perform this <br />particular work item "in-house", with city forces and <br /> <br />2 <br />
