The attached drawing shows the calculated unit hydrograph for the <br />area tributary to Oak Lake Park pond. <br />C. Storage at Oak Lake Park Pond <br />The following calculations are based on the originally approved <br />final contours for the ponding area with the following changes. <br />a. No excavation work was assumed south of the inplar_e ditch <br />near the Scottland Green Apartments. This includes the "floating <br />bog" area and east of that area to near County Road I. <br />b. -To the west of the Scottland Green Apartments, only the area <br />shown to be excavated to elevation 889 was removed. No grading <br />was assumed between the deep part of the pond and the apartment <br />property line. <br />A revised grading plan for the site is enclosed with this report. <br />Available storage volumes at the site are as follows: <br />Contour <br />Area, acres <br />Al + A <br />L/2 <br />Volume <br />Sum Volume <br />893 <br />11.0 <br />0.0 <br />25.3 <br />0.5 <br />12.7 <br />894 <br />14.3 <br />12.7 <br />30.8 <br />0.5 <br />15.4 <br />895 <br />16.5 <br />28.1 <br />37.3 <br />0.35 <br />13.0 <br />895.7 <br />20.8 <br />41.1 <br />This calculation does not allow for any settlement in areas that <br />will not be excavated to the east and south of the major pond <br />excavation areas. However, such settlement will occur when the <br />general water levels are lowered. <br />D. Rating of the Outlet Structure <br />Plans for the outlet structure show it as having a 12 inch diameter <br />opening at the pond outlet elevation of 893.0. When water rises <br />to elevation 894.9, flow will begin over a weir having a width of <br />4'9". This has been narrowed from previous designs to reduce the <br />100 year pond discharge. At a water level of 895.7, the total flow <br />through the structure will be approximately 13.2 cfs. <br />The following assumptions were made. For orifice flow through the 12" <br />diameter hole, we assumed that tailwater on the orifice would be below <br />elevation 893.5 for the interval from normal pool (893.0) to the weir <br />overflow elevation (894.9). Above that level, tailwater would be <br />higher on the orifice rising to 894.9 when the pond level would be at <br />elevation 895.7. <br />
