The following are the minimum requirements for ‘Subdivision Encroachments'. These shall be met in addition to any other requirements for an encroachment permit as set forth in these regulations.

(a) Permanent structures are not permitted within the Department's right-of-way.
(b) The permittee shall not divert surface run off toward the Department's open canal embankments. The surface run off shall be stored and collected outside the Department's right-of-way.
