Drainage Report Amendment
Dear Carol,
The following should amend our drainage report for the above referenced project.
1 722 Broadmoor
Suite 210
Bryan, TX 77802
In short, the only change in the drainage systems proposed for the project is to move the transition
point from surface flow to underground flow at Drainage Outlet #2 back from the north edge of
the project to the side of the drive aisle.
In the prior design, the flows passed through an opening in the curb, along an open swale and into
a grated inlet, thence under the graded slope and into the parks property via erosion control
measures.
In the new design, the curb opening has been replaced with a curb inlet, and privately maintained
underground piping will be used to convey the flows to a junction box (the former inlet) then into
the parks property as before.
There is no change in hydrology, nor in the release point locations or designs on the project.
At the curb inlet location, the 1 % flow is 8. lcfs, which requires a ponding depth of 2 inches over
the curb for all the flow to be accepted by the inlet. The sidewalk between the curb and the
buildings will form the ponding control so that all the flow enters the inlet rather than pass
overland.
The 24 inch pipe connecting the curb inlet to the public junction box has a capacity of over 10 cfs
at this slope, therefore tailwater ponding will not be a problem.
Please Jet me know if you have any concerns or further questions.
