Kevin,
It was good talking to you this afternoon. We've decided to simplify the design. Instead of the "overflow structure" we
will simply discharge from a 12" HDPE pipe into a rip -rap plunge pool alongside the creek. In order to get a positive slope
on our discharge pipe we are showing this rip -rap within the buffer, would this constitute an additional impact?
Discharging into a rip -rap plunge pool should also help raise DO levels before entering the creek. Additionally, the intake
and outflow are intended to refresh the entire pond volume over a 10 day cycle.
I've attached supporting calculations in a PDF. Based on our numbers, the primary outflow will discharge at a velocity of
2.45 ft/s for the 175 GPM pump rate. I've reworked the emergency spillway calculations and now have a discharge
velocity of 1.06 ft/s. Neither of these velocities should have high erosive potential.
Feel free to email or call with any questions.
Thanks,
Sam Just, El
