Managers approve 24‑inch culvert and flap gate for Leirness‑Steenerson Drain
Summary
Traill County Water Resource District authorized Chad’s Excavating to install a 24‑inch corrugated steel pipe (length to be determined) and a flap gate on Leirness‑Steenerson Drain No. 34‑20 after a landowner reported drainage issues; the motion passed unanimously.
At its April 21 meeting in Hillsboro, the Traill County Water Resource District approved work to address a drainage problem in the southwest quarter of section 16 in Herberg Township. Kevin Ackerman reported the issue to the board; Manager Jason Lovas moved to direct Chad’s Excavating to install a 24‑inch corrugated steel pipe (CSP), length to be determined on site, and a flap gate. Manager Andy Neset seconded the motion and it carried unanimously on roll call.
The board recorded the action as a formal motion affecting Leirness‑Steenerson Drain No. 34‑20. The installation details — including the exact culvert length and timing — will be determined on site by the contractor. The outcome was logged by Secretary‑Treasurer Jessica Spaeth in the meeting minutes and will be reflected in forthcoming project coordination with the Traill County Highway Department.
