HYDROLOGIC DOCOtdENTATION <br />SMALL AREA E7CE~STION <br />YARD AREA <br />The following calculations demonstrate the amount of sediment fence, straw <br />bales or gravel berm surface area required to adequately handle the runoff from <br />the Yard Area SAE. <br />Runoff volume and peak discharge calculations were performed utilizing the <br />SEDCAD 4 computer model consistent with the methodology previously discussed in <br />this Exhibit. The sediment control structure was designed to handle the peak <br />discharge from a 10-year, 24-hour storm event. <br />1 Hydrology Inputs <br />All hydrology inputs are shown on the SEDCAD 4 computer printouts. <br />The CN numbers used for the SAE watershed were obtained from Procedures <br />for Determining Peak Flows in Colorado and Technical Release No. 55 <br />(USDA-SCS, 1980). Based on soil type and vegetation cover, curve numbers <br />were determined using Table 2-2a and 2-2d, USDA-SCS TR-55, for the <br />following conditions: <br />Reclaimed (< 2 years) <br />Soil Type: B <br />Ground Cover: <30~, Poor <br />Cover Type: Herbaceous <br />CN: 80 <br />2 Hydrology Results <br />Peak Discharge In <br />10-year,24-hour event <br />0.91 cfs <br />3. Sediment Fence Requirements <br />Sediment Fence Permissivity: <br />Required Surface Area <br />10 gal/min/ft~ or 0.022 cfs/ft~ <br />0.85 cfs / 0.022 cfs/ft~ = 39 ft~ <br />The silt fence should be installed in accordance with the manufactures <br />recommendations. Design assumes regular inspections and maintenance. <br />4. Straw Bale Requirements <br />Straw bale Permissivity: <br />Required Surface Area: <br />14 gal/min/ftZ or 0.031 cfs/f tZ <br />0.90 cfs / 0.031 cfs/ftz = 29 ftZ <br />5. Gravel Berm <br />Gravel Berm Permissivity: <br />270 gal/min/ft~ or 0.60 cfs/ft2 <br />Required Surface Area: 0.91 cfs / 0.60 cfs/ft~ = 1.5 ft~ <br />
