Foster County orders culvert-elevation survey along Carrington Creek; cleanout project discussion continues
Summary
The Foster County Water Resource Board directed Apex Engineering to measure elevations of culverts along Carrington Creek for 3½ miles and discussed the ongoing Carrington Creek natural watercourse cleanout project and a Rosehill Township response on stream crossings.
At its May 27, 2026 special meeting, the Foster County Water Resource Board directed Apex Engineering to measure elevations of culverts on Carrington Creek from the Bordulac highway southeast for 3½ miles.
Ronn Stangeland made the motion to order the elevation survey; Alex Stedman seconded and the board approved the motion unanimously.
Minutes record continuing discussions with Brian Schimelfenig regarding his possible involvement in the Carrington Creek cleanout project. The board’s bills and statements listing also includes an invoice labeled 'Carrington Creek Natural Water Course Cleanout Project' and Apex Engineering charges for Carrington Creek work and a 76th Avenue hydrology/hydraulic analysis.
Rosehill Township supervisors responded to the board’s stream crossing determination letter and indicated they are ‘looking into all options to reasonably resolve this matter,’ according to the minutes. Engineer Jennifer Malloy submitted Foster County projected water resource projects to the state during the meeting.
The board did not set a detailed project timeline in the published minutes; the immediate directive was the elevation survey by Apex Engineering so the board and its consultants can determine next engineering and permitting steps.
