The farmland is situated within Drainage District 34, part of the Upper Open Ditch Segment, and Drainage District 198 on the East side of the farm. The County Drainage Tile on the farm consists of a 24" tile line running northwest across the property, which outlets water into the Open Drainage Ditch.
