Q1)A storm water retention pond following a 4-hour rainfall event with 2-in accumulation. The contributing watershed area is 20 acres, of which 2 acres in the pond. The pond has a rectangular geometry. The initial depth of water in the pond is 5 ft. The soil of the watershed on average is pasture type in good condition. The pond drains by infiltration through the bottom (fully effective) and sides of the pond at the rate of 2 in/hr. The effective area for infiltration through the sides of the pond is 2000 ft.. What is the depth of water in the pond 12 br after rainfall ends? Assume unoffhas ended by this time?
