1. Why is the emergency overflow not discharging at same location of outfall? Provide flow
pathway for emergency overflow.
The location has been moved and a rock rip-rap channel provided below the emergency
overflow.
2. What is surface treatment of overflow spillway? The surface treatment of the spillway
and its discharge path shall give due regard to maintenance.
The top of the overflow will be grassed, except for the last two feet where water begins to
cascade down the backside of the spillway. That portion of the overflow and the pathway
down the slope shall received rock rip-rap. This is shown on the revised plans.
3. Drainage easement is required for outflow to recognized drainageway.
The developers of this property have been unable to reach an agreement with the
downstream property owner for a drainage easement. Since this was not possible, we have
devised a system that will effectively return flow from the detention pond to sheet flow. The
system shown on the plans uses a curb at a uniform height across its entire length to evenly
release water onto the adjacent site in much the same manner as it is currently flows prior to
any development.
4. Are you indicating that the emergency spillway will only operate for design storms in
excess of 100-yr, or under plugged outlet pipe conditions.
That is correct. The pond and the outlet control structure are designed to handle all design
storms up to and including the 100-year event. The emergency spillway will only be
operative when the outlet structure is blocked or during rainfall events in excess of the 100-
yr design storm.
