Question: Given: An undeveloped 1 0 0 0 acre catchment currently is covered by pasture in good condition and is composed of hydrologic soil group C

Given:
An undeveloped 1000 acre catchment currently is covered by pasture in good condition and is composed of
hydrologic soil group C. This gives a pre-development composite SCS CN equal to 74.
A proposed urban development (post development) will change the land use to:
55%13 acre lots (30% impervious),CN=81;
20% in open space in good condition, CN=74;
25% in roads, sewers and parking lots, CN=98.
answer the following questions:
The post-development composite SCS CN is:
a)90.2
b)78.6
c)83.9
d)89.5
The pre-development direct runoff Q associated with a 10-yr,24-hr rainfall of P=3.2 inches is
(Note: CN=74):
a)2.5
b)1.5
c)1.0
d)2.1
The post-development direct runoff Q associated with a 10-yr,24-hr rainfall of P=3.2 inches is:
a)3.2
b)2.8
c)1.3
d)1.7
Given: An undeveloped 1 0 0 0 acre catchment
