The hydraulic and hydrologic <br />design references and hydrologic report are included in <br />Appendix F. Design of the riprap and rip rap bedding <br />are from NAVFAC DM-7 ~hich is Reference 11 in Appendix <br />G. Appendix H contains the discharge capacity curves <br />for the two sizes of outlet conduits considered. For <br />the sizes of pipe considered and the expected slope, <br />the flow will be controlled by the inlet conditions. <br />structure Plans <br />1. Embankment. The embankment sections considered <br />are at slopes of 3 to 1 and 4 to'l. These slopes <br />are considered to be the minimum values feasible <br />for an earth dam. Thicker rip rap sections, <br />problems with the downstream slope erosion <br />control, and sta:bility under drawdown conditions <br />become problems on slopes steeper than 3 to 1. As <br />can be seen from the stability analysis shown on <br />Table No. 3 in Appendix G, the stability for <br />drawdown for the 3 to 1 slope is at a minimum <br />acceptable value. Due to the results of the <br />stability analysis and due to practical <br />maintenance considerations, a 4 to 1 slope is <br />recommended and is the minimum side slope <br /> <br />V-5 <br />
