Field investigations are <br />needed to determine hydrological cover conditions and hydrologic <br />__ _ _ curve numbers. The hydrologic curve number for Group "B" soil is <br />_, ~~ ..about 69 for all the soils except Renohill series which are Group <br />_ "C" with a hydrologic curve number of 79 when hydrologic conditions <br />are good, as shown in "Peak Flows in Colorado" handbook. <br />'Refer to SCS National Engineering Handbook, Section 4, to determine <br />___runoff quantities from the curves. <br />5.
