Problem 6(20 points)
A water quality depth of 2cm from a 1-hectare catchment in a municipality is to be treated by an
exfiltration trench. The land allocated for the trench is 100 meters long and sits between the road and a
popular walking path. The surrounding soil has a hydraulic conductivity of 1md and a porosity of 0.35.
The trench cannot exceed a depth of 1 meter in order to avoid affecting other subsurface infrastructure.
Find three alternatives for trench dimensions (LxWxH, one that minimizes width, one that minimizes
length, and one the minimizes depth. All alternatives must drain completely within 38 hours.
