• Calculations for Sediment Storage <br />10-year, 24-hour (MUSLE) = 7457.35 tuns (see Table 5) <br />7457.35 tons x 2 (MUSLE) = 14914.70 tons <br />14914.70 tarts x 2000 lb/ton = 8.56 ac.-f t. <br />80 (lbs/f t3) x 43560 ft2/ac. <br />Results <br />10-year, 24-hour Runoff Volume and Sediment Storage Volume <br />All previously cited data was entered into a batch input data file which <br />is presented in Table 4. The SEDIMOT II computer model was then run with <br />this input file and the resultant output file is presented as Table 5. <br />Results of the SEDIMOT II modeling show that the peak stage of the <br />10-year, 24-hour storm event will be 0.8 feet below the emergency <br />spillway. This allows for 2.58 ac.-f t. (including the 1.0 ac.-f t. <br />• needed for pit pumpage) before any flow would occur through the <br />emergency spillway. The 6" CMP was considered the best practical size <br />of pipe in order to increase detention time and still have enough <br />storage above the peak stage for pit pumpage. Also the 6" diameter pipe <br />should not freeze or plug up with the trash rack installed (see Exhibit <br />7-12). Peak discharge from the principal spillway will be 1.06 cfs with <br />100.0 percent basin trap efficiency (see Table 5). The pond can store <br />up to 9.96 ac.-ft. of sediment or (2.33) 10-year, 24-hour (MUSLE) <br />precipitation events with the principal spillway at the inlet elevation <br />of 6945.2. Detention time from hydrograph centers is 15.29 hours. <br />Therefore, the requirements for storage and treatment of the design <br />storm have been met by Pond No. 004. <br />Emergency Spillway <br />The software from Dodson & Associates, Inc. was used to analyze the <br />capacity of the emergency spillway. The emergency spillway is a <br />• riprapped trapezoidal channel with 3H:1V side slopes and a width of 12 <br />feet. From the routing of the 25-year, 24-hour storm event with the <br />SEDIMOT II computer program, there is a peak inflow of 93.73 cfs at a <br />7-6c-5 Revised 8/27/86 <br />
