Recommendations and Comments

KYTC	886 Michael Vaughn Agency	Y Approve	We have an HSIP project in McCracken County along KY 1954 (Husbands Rd), where we are realigning a curve that goes across a levee under the jurisdicion of the US Army Corps of Engineers(USACE). As part of the realignment, we must extend 5 existing special drainage pipes associated with the levee. The 5 existing pipes are HOBAS CCFRPM pipes. We have an approved permit from USACE; the permit requires us to extend the 5 existing pipes in like-kind. Therefore, we are required to use HOBAS CCFRPM. We have recieved the HOBAS CCFRPM specifications and will include those in the project Proposal.	Sep 08, 2017	1965
