~ .. The ditch collects surface runoff from the drainage area north of the <br />access road and runoff contributed by CD-1. The runoff is routed directly <br />to Sedimentation Pond No. 5. <br />The access road collection ditch is divided into three (3) sections <br />(Sections A, B and C). Section A borders the north edge of the access <br />road and extends from the refuse pile to the county road. Section B <br />borders the north edge of the county road and extends from the access road <br />to Culvert 38. Section C borders the north edge of the county road from <br />Culvert 38 to Pond 5. <br />Section A of the access road collection ditch is designed to safely pass <br />the peak flow from the 10-year, 24-hour event. It is a trapezoidal <br />channel with a 4.0 foot bottom width and 2H:1V sideslopes. The peak flow <br />calculated for the 10-year, 24-hour event is equal to 3.89 cubic feet per <br />second. The channel slope is 9.6 percent with a design flow velocity <br />equal to 4.4 feet per second. The ditch has a natural cobble surface to <br />prevent erosion. Refer to Figure 2, Sediment Collection Ditches - Design <br />~• Detail, for design details and channel characteristics. <br />Section B is designed to safely pass the peak flow from the 10-year, 24- <br />hour event. It is a trapezoidal channel with a 4-foot bottom width and <br />2H:1V sideslopes. The peak flow calculated for the 10-year, 24-hour event <br />is 13.8 cubic feet per second assuming all watersheds draining to <br />Sedimentation Pond No. 5 peak simultaneously. The channel slope is 5.0 <br />percent with a design flow velocity equal to 4.5 feet per second. <br />Section C is designed to safely pass the flow from a 10-year, 24-hour <br />event. It is a trapezoidal channel with a 5-foot bottom width. The peak <br />flow for the 10-year, 24-hour event is 27.3 cfs. The channel slope is 6.3 <br />percent with a design flow velocity equal to 6.8 feet per second. <br />Design Calculations - Sediment Collection Ditches <br />.
