IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT RIGHT-OF-WAY ( Ditch ) AND DRIVEWAY CULVERT
Keeping the ditch ( right-of-way ) free of weeds and debris is the responsibility of the property owner . However , when mud and silt flows through and accumulates during the monsoon season , Yavapai County will come out and clear the ditch so water will flow properly . If you have this problem , call me and I will notify Yavapai County to put your address on their list . The County does not clean out the driveway culverts . That is the responsibility of the property owner . I have spoken with Wyatt Orr , the owner of Earth Resources Corporation , and he tells me his company can clean out driveway culverts . The cost will depend on the length of the culvert and the amount of accumulation inside . A representative from his company will come to your home to give a free , no-obligation estimate as to the cost of the job . Earth Resources is a local company in Dewey . Wyatt can be reached at 928-775-2795 .
