(A) Velocities in open channels shall not become erosive for the type of soil and type of vegetation anticipated to carry the water. Pipe outlets such as footing drains, farm tiles, sump pump discharges, and other connections to a City- maintained channel will be protected from erosion by means as determined by the Director of Public Services. Typical methods include rip rap, outlet elevations lowered, drop structures, oversized pipe diameter, or other methods as deter-mined necessary.
(B) Pipe outlets will be designed and installed to adequately resist erosion. The proprietor will design adequate channel or bed stabilization using accept-able methods for transition from pipe to channel flow. Any damage incurred to the City storm sewers will be the responsibility of the proprietor.
(C) All charges, including legal fees, will be charged against the proprietor to repair damage resulting from the discharge.
