Technical Calculations
Below you'll �nd all the math calculations used to construct this pond. Please note that some of the �gures
are rounded for display purposes, but that the original non-rounded numbers were used in the equations.
1a. Find Curve Number CN :

1b. Find rainfall P (inches):
(from lookup table)
P = 5.2
1c. Find runo� Q (inches) and runo� volume Vr (acre-feet):

c1= -0.61512
c2= -0.16403
qulower = 10c0+c1·log(TC)+c2·[log(TC)]2
qulower = 102.55323+(−0.61512)·log(0.34)+(−0.16403)·[log(0.34)]2

m = 539.01−639.1170.3−0.1
m = -500.534
b = interpolation y-intercept = quupper − (m · Ia/Pupper)
b = 539.01− (−500.534 · 0.3)b = 689.171
qu = m(Ia/P ) + b
qu = −500.534 · 0.102 + 689.171
qu = 637.962
1g. Find the peak discharge qp (cfs):
Fp = pond and swamp adjustment factor = 1
qp = qu · Awmi2 ·Q · Fp
qp = 637.962 · 0.04 · 2.97 · 1qp = 71.265
2. For the user selected pond depth/acreage and pipe size/type, werun an iterative process to �nd the dam height and pipe length.
H = dam height (feet)
D = pond depth (feet) (user-chosen) = 5
PS = pipe size (diameter in inches) (user-chosen) = 0Pond storage below crest = 16.7 acre-feet
Initial estimate:
H = D + 1.8 · PS + 2
H = 5 + 1.8 · 0 + 2
H = 8.8
2a. Find the pipe �ow Qpipe(cfs):
n = Manning's N for the pipe = 0
Kp = pipe head loss coe�cient =5087·n2PS4/3

2b. Find the storage volume Vs (acre-feet):
Coe�cients (lookup):
C0 = 0.682
C1 = -1.43

Vs = 5.96(0.682+ (−1.43)(0.124)+ (1.64)(0.124)2+(−0.804)(0.124)3
Vs = 3.15
2c. Find the auxillary storage volume Vaux (acre-feet):
Vaux = Vs
Vaux = 3.15
2d. Fill the basin model to the pond depth D, and �ll with additionalvolume Vaux:
The new dam height H (feet) is two feet above the top of the Vaux
H = 7.3
2e. See if H has converged to a value.
If the new value of H is not within 0.005 feet of the value of H we
used in step 4a above, repeat steps 4a through 4e with this new value
of H .
If the new value of H is within 0.005 feet of the value of H we used in
step 4a, then we consider the value to have converged, and move on to
step 4f.
2f. Accept the converged value of the dam height H (feet):
H = 6Use this value to construct the pond in the GIS.
Disclaimer Statements Estimate: This estimate is for planning purposes only. In no way shall it be construed as an engineering design. This estimate is valid only for low hazard dikes. Planning for moderate and high hazard dikes or dams requires an onsite investigation as well as additional evaluation of the hydrology and hydraulics by a licensed engineer. Cost: This is a preliminary cost estimate for planning purposes only. The final construction cost may vary depending on actual site conditions, timing of construction, availability of fill materials, inflation, competitive bid process, construction method, etc. Water Level: There is no guarantee that a pothole or structure will fill and/or remain filled to the crest elevation of the pothole, ditch plug, or principal spillway crest elevation.
