1 | | (4) If applicable, ensure all field drainage tiles are |
2 | | repaired by a drain tile contractor chosen by the |
3 | | landowner, including repairing drainage issues discovered |
4 | | after the project is completed; |
5 | | (5) Ensure that road closings are limited and |
6 | | appropriate detour access is provided; |
7 | | (6) Ensure that run off and storm water are |
8 | | appropriately managed in a dedicated system and not |

10 | | (7) Assign an ombudsman for purposes of communication |
11 | | with landowners to address problems that arise before, |
12 | | during, and after the project is completed; the ombudsman |
13 | | should be on call for a period of 5 years after completion |
14 | | of the project so that any damages to property, which may |
15 | | not be revealed until after the project is completed, can |
16 | | be reported; the ombudsmen should provide a predictable, |
17 | | transparent, and credible communication process to all |
18 | | parties resulting in outcomes that are seen as fair, |
19 | | effective, and lasting and enable a more systematic |
20 | | identification of emerging issues and trends, facilitating |
21 | | corrective action and preemptive engagement; and |
22 | | (8) Inform landowners about any pertinent State |
23 | | agriculture impact mitigation agreements and inform them |
24 | | that the provisions of those agreements may be the minimum |
25 | | standards for impact migration that could be included in |
26 | | landowner agreements or contracts.
