Discharge Pond <br /> BME has historically included a small settling pond on similar dewatering facilities even though the <br /> water is typically clean and free of sediment. The purpose of the pond is to allow reaction time and <br /> settling in the unlikely event that sediment makes its way to the pump intake.Though small, the pond is <br /> much larger than it needs to be and reduces the settleable solids concentration to effectively 0.0 ml/I. <br /> The outlet of the discharge pond will be a simple broad crested weir with a width of three feet. Side <br /> slopes of 3:1 will result in a slightly lower peak elevation than calculated by SEDCAD. Again, SEDCAD <br /> does not have a way to include a base flow, so the pumped flow rate of 0.89 cfs must be added to the <br /> 100-Year runoff rate of 3.36 cfs for a total of 4.25 cfs. Interpolating from the stage vs. discharge table <br /> yields a peak pond elevation of 5532.58. SEDCAD Calculations for the discharge pond area can be found <br /> in Appendix C. <br /> Sedimentology <br /> The particle size distribution used in the model is the same as has been used in our SEDCAD models for <br /> more than 20 years.The author is not sure where it came from.A retired SEDCAD modeler was called, <br /> and his recollection is that a soil sample was sent to the University of Kentucky for analysis and the <br /> particle size distribution was a result of that analysis. <br /> Sedimentology was modeled for the 10 Year storm. Both well pad sediment trap and the pond reduce <br /> the settleable solids concentration well below the permitted level of 0.5 ml/L. <br /> Additional Rip Rap Considerations <br /> It is the author's experience that SEDCAD calculates a rip rap size that is either too small or too large <br /> depending on the method used when compared to other methods. Smaller is acceptable on long <br /> stretches of perimeter ditches, but near outlets and dams, the author prefers to use other methods. <br /> Calculations using other methods can be found in Appendix D. The SEDCAD channel calculations can be <br /> found in Appendices B and C. <br /> References <br /> OSMRE.
