The deminsions were creek channel and bed. I will probably go with a 21' pipe. I think the oval type would be better, but they are more expensive. I saw a new culvert for sale that was 5-6' x 21' x3/8" thick for only $2100. The dozer man bought two culverts localy for another job at $2900 each and they were 4'.
I am going to measure the Parish road culvert and go from there. I think it is more than adaquate. I have contacts searching for used concrete sections or a big steel unit. Hopefully if I get it in the ground and sodded over, officials should leave me alone.
What about the trash screen? I have seen them before where they cut the pipes at an angle then weld 1"-2" pipe or tubing to the culvert. This make a grate to prevent large debris from getting lodged inside.
BC, good move on the gates. Back to Dad's farm most gates are 16'. I have build many. There are a few old 10'-12' gates left and they suck. Build a good 16' out of 2" pipe and livestock panel. Mount it to a 4" pipe post set 3'-4' deep and braced well, it will out live the farmer.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
