The run off from the road is split in two. If you look at the road on the left side you can see the first place were it gets directed off the road, there is a large flat spot you cant see in the photo. The rest even during the hard rain we had last week drains off over the hill. Our lot runs all the way to the bottom of the 2nd hill. We calculated the runoff coefficient for the drainage area we needed and we are good to go at 3x the max rainfall rate in Sibonga. The records only go back 47 years but it included the two bad floods that happened in that time frame. Of course everyone watching the rain come down before the Arc started to float thought it would be fine......lol.

Great - but it won't help as delivery guys etc here never bother reading such things anyway!  They prefer to ride up and down the same street again and again instead.
