Compute the time of concentration using the following methods:
For each method, compute travel time for each segment, sum segment travel times to determine catchment Time of Concentration, Tc
(a) NRCS, CN method: Equation 3.51 with Table 3.4 to select CN
(b) Velocity-Slope method (Manning Equation): Table 3.13,3.14 to compute velocity using slope \& length
(c) Rainfall P2(with Slope, Manning n value): Equation 3.48 with Table 3.13,3.14 to compute velocity using slope \& length, and Figure 2.4 or Jefferson County MSD design IDF chart/table for P2 rainfall value
