A 927-acre catchment has been monitored for many years. It has been found that the average annual rainfall over the catchment is 37 inch and that the average streamflow is 1.0 cfs. Geologic investigations reveal a bedrock underlying the catchment that effectively prevents any deep seepage or groundwater recharge. Estimate the average annual evapotranspiration in inches for this catchment.
An old railway line drained is covered by weed over-grown winding earth channel roughly 0.8m wide and with bank slope of about 1:16. The channel is long and shallow, with a bed slope of about 0.1mm/m and only 400mm deep at the lowest point. Engineers estimate the channel will need to convey a flow of about 0.23m3/s in a five year storm, to avoid creating a drainage problem when the lines reopens next year. Does the channel have sufficient capacity or will it need to be used and re-lined?

A dam includes a sheet pile "cut off" wall near the toe, installed to 7 ft below the groundline. Water seepage is assumed to be at steady state at this time step shown. At this time, the depth of the upstream pond (headwater) is 5 feet. The groundwater is at the same level as the ground on the downstream/tailwater side. The sand stratum thickness, where water is flowing, is 9 ft thick. The permeability of the sand, in the zone of the flow net, is k=42ft/day, the length of the dam (into the page) is 150 ft, and the unit weight of the sand is γsat=128 lb/ft3 (saturated unit weight of the soil). Use γw=62.4 pcf (unit weight of water) for your calculations, where necessary.What is the factor of safety against a quick condition?
