1. Determine the peak runoff from a 4.04 in rainfall on a watershed that is 35% bare soil (HSG of D), has 30% of its soil in HSG B under grass, and 35% in HSG C under forest. You will need to use Supplemental Information (5-Supplement-Curve-Numbers) to determine the peak runoff. Provide a risk-based discussion of different possible peak runoff values and offer your recommendation as to which estimate should be used (25 Points).
Mean =2.112 Standard Deviation =0.105 Skew coefficient =0.9
Estimate the probability that a discharge of 600 ft3/s at this location will be equaled or exceeded at least once in the next 25 years.
