A copy of the design calculations from "Final Drainage Study, Bear <br /> <br /> <br />Pag,3 2 <br />Sep'iember 8, 1992 <br /> <br />HYDROLOGY <br /> <br />The hydrology used for Bear Creek Tributary No. 5 was taken from the Jefferson <br />County FIS Table 1, Summary of Discharges. A copy of this table is included in <br />Appendix A of this study. The 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year peak discharges for the <br />tributary within the reach of study is 150, 320, 380 and 660 cfs, respectively. <br /> <br />HYDRAULICS <br /> <br />At the time the Flood Insurance Study was completed, the drainageway was a fairly <br />deep channel with steep side slopes and sloping easterly through the area of study <br />at approximately a 3.4 percent gradient. Between the time that the FEMA mapping <br />took place, 1977, and the time the FIS was adopted by Jefferson County in 1988, <br />the storm sewer was constructed in several phases by different parties. The storm <br />sewer system which conveys flow in the tributary, currently consists of 60 inch and <br />84 inch reinforced concrete pipe at a gradient of approximately 4 percent. The <br />alignment within Block 3 of the Bear Creek Filing No. 2 begins downstream of <br />South Zinnia Street, follows the alignment of West Auburn Place right-of.way and <br />easl3ment, then ieaves Block 3 at the westerly property line between lots 23 and 24, <br />the City of Lakewood Corporate limit. A copy of the storm sewer as,built plan as <br />provided by the owner is included in Appendix D. Also included in Appendix D is <br />a copy of Sheet R3 of the construction pians for Bear Creek Village Subdivision <br />Filing No.1 which shows the extension of 30 LF of 84 inch RCP and outlet erosion <br />protection. <br /> <br />The existing storm sewer system was analyzed at the upstream end utilizing FHWA <br />culvert charts assuming inlet control which was then ver~ied with the computer <br />prol~ram "Storm Drain Analysis" developed by the County of Los Angelos. The <br />analysis shows that the 10" 50- and 100-year peak discharge flows are contained <br />within the pipe. The 500'year peak discharge flow will overtop West Yale Avenue <br />with approximately 280 cfs flowing overland through Block 3 and the property to <br />the west in the City of Lakewood. Normal depth calculations were done at sections <br />through Block 3 to determine the extent of the Overland 500-year flood boundary. <br />The computer program "Storm Drain Analysis" was used to determine the flood <br />pro/i1es in the pipe for the 10-, 50- and 100,year storm events. The hydraulic <br />caleulations, including output from "Storm Drain Analysis", is provided in Appendix <br />B. A pian view of the study area showing the 100- and 500-year flood boundaries <br />and a profile showing the 10-, 50-,100- and 500-year flood profiles are included in <br />Appendix C. <br />
