Essay #3 Proposal discusses improving the drainage system in Tempe, Arizona. The author notes that after rains, there is often excess water storage on roads which prompted an investigation into the drainage system. Three solutions are proposed: 1) The government invests in fixing or building ditches as ditches are the main problem; 2) Cleaning dirty water stored on roads, though not very helpful; and 3) Setting up a split sewerage system to faster water runoff and help with crop irrigation.
