Q2 Riser You are asked to determine the discharge from a riser located within a detention basin that will reduce peak flows downstream. The riser is 15 feet tall with 5 square openings located at the base of the reservoir. The openings are each 2 feet by 2 feet. Determine the flowrate leaving the reservoir when the depth of flow is 9 feet. Cd = 0.62 and Cw = 3.1 Please enter your answer to the nearest ones place. Please enter it as a numeric value only and please omit units.
