Dear Ms. Riley:
It is necessary for the United States to acquire a flowage easement over certain real property
in connection with the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System, Pool No. 7. Our
records indicate you own land set forth in the attached descriptions, containing 1.93 acres,
Pulaski County, Arkansas.
In compliance with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition
Policies Act of 1970, Public Law 91 -646, as amended, we are advising you that an informal
value estimate has been prepared by our staff appraiser. The total amount estimated as the value
of the easement is $900.00 and allocated as follows:
TOTAL
180E -1 1.25 $ 600.00
180E -2 D-68 _30000
1.93 $ 900.00
This estimate was made by a qualified staff real estate appraiser based upon comparable
sales in the area of your property and other easements we have purchased in the area. This
amount does not reflect any consideration of or allowance for any relocation assistance and
payments under Public Law 91 -646, as amended, to which you may be entitled. If you disagree
with this estimate, you may request a formal appraisal of your property. A formal appraisal may
result in an increase or a decrease from this estimate.
Three copies of an Offer to Sell Easement are enclosed for your consideration. If you find
the offer acceptable, please sign-and reh,rn two copies to us in the enclosed postage -free, self -
addressed envelope. A copy may be retained for your records. Enclosed for your information is
