JOHNSON, E.I., ENVIRONMENTAL ENG <br />SUBJECT: LATERAL `r CANAL FORCE MAIN REPLACEMENT <br />BACKGROUND <br />The County was notified via memorandum (see attached) from the Indian River Farms Water <br />Control District's (IRFWCD) representative Carter Associates, Inc. on November 12, 1999 of an <br />exposed 6 -inch force main along the Lateral `T Canal just south of the South Relief Canal <br />(Figure 1). Upon receipt of this information, the County conducted a cursory review of the force <br />main to assess the situation. It appeared that the extensive rain associated with Hurricane `Irene' <br />resulted in a scouring of the canal embankment, which ultimately exposed the buried pipeline <br />(Figure 2). The Department has been negotiating with Federal emergency Management Agency <br />(FEMA) employees since the incident was discovered <br />February 1, 2000 <br />68 <br />• • <br />
