The pedestrian bridge will have a low chord of the bridge at or above 905'. Specifically, <br /> the following conditions were considered in the design: <br /> • This development shall not obstruct flow, defined as development which blocks the conveyance <br /> of floodwaters by itself or with other development, causing any increase in the regional flood <br /> height; or cause any increase in the regional flood height due to floodplain storage area lost. <br /> • Bridge shall be designed and constructed to have a low flood damage potential. <br /> • Adequate flood proofing measures shall be provided to the flood protection elevation. <br /> The attached map provides a site location of the bridge, including contour elevations. The bridge <br /> abutments shall be constructed on existing elevation above the flood elevation and clear span across the <br /> river. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> John Reimer, PE Stormwater Engineer �-� • 1044° - <br /> f,, . <br /> Lyman F.Anderson Agriculture&Conservation Center <br /> 5201 Fen Oak Drive,Room 208,Madison,Wisconsin 53718-PH:608/224-3730,FAX:608/224-3745 <br /> ww w.countyofdane.comllwrd <br />
