A local municipality is tasked with managing the sediment from its three streams originating from three different catchments. The sediment generated for each catchment is shown below as well as the annual stream runoff for each catchment. The municipality would like to install a sedimentation pond downstream of all three catchments that requires cleaning every three months. Assuming that all the sediment settles in the pond, determine the size of the pond (in m³) making provision for an additional 10% of sediment in the event of flooding. The density of the sediment is 1.2 tons/m³. Catchment name Sediment load Annual stream flows (m³/yr) (tons/m³/year) Rural village Farming 0.210 3000 0.115 2100 Natural 0.010 2500
