Also, where exactly are you wanting the water to discharge?

I thought the same. Then I looked closely at the first picture, and it appears they are trying to get it to drain towards the lower area in the distance.

Hmm, if that is the case, that corner with the driveway needs a catch basin and the drain should follow that natural drainage line in the grass.

I'm not an expert. Perhaps they developed a drainage problem and this is how the fixed it.

A drain following the contour of the drainage line in the grass would be a larger project. Makes sense, though.
