FRANKLIN. La, sept ;, 1906.
TO the Hon. Police Jury. ST. Mary
Parish, La.
We, the undersigned committee APP
pointed to investigate the contemplated
crossing of the public road and Bayou
Cypremort by the J. W. Burguieres
Co. Ltd with drainage canal, do
hereby submit the following result of
our Investigations:
We find that if properly constructed,
the proposed canal can do no harm
either to the road or to the parties
living on the Bayou Cypremort below
lilc SdlO pIOpoSou CdHdl.
1t will be necessary that the chan
mel of the bayou be left open at least to
the capacity of two 42'' boilers laid
lengthwise in the bayou, at the depth
of its present bottom; that the embank-
ment through which these be Tiers will
pass, shall be protected from seepage
either by sheet piling or masonry I'M
der the direction Of the Road Com
missioner: and that the said embank-
ments shall be at least as high as the
present natural ridge Of Bayou Cy-
premort, in order that no damage can
accrue to the property owners below
the said canal from tide which at
present would not pass over the bayou
ridge.
