The 60-year record shows that the annual maximum discharges for a river have a mean of 30,000 cfs, a standard deviation of 28,000 cfs, and a skewness coefficient of 3.15. If the annual maximum discharge can be described by the Extreme-value Type I distribution, what is the probability that the annual maximum discharge exceeds 100,000 cfs at least once in next 10 years? (Note: The sample size is 60. Conduct interpolation using exceedance probabilities or cumulative probabilities.)

Design a sedimentation basin for a water treatment plant with the following specifications assuming it is required to supply a city with a population of 50,000 people: Rectangular or square basin • Depth: 7-18 ft ● . • Width: 10-50 ft Detention time: 4-8 hours Flow through velocity: <0.55 ft/min Overflow rate: 400-1,100 gal/day-ft² Draw a figure to show calculated dimensions. You may consider to use SI units in calculations. ● ● Hint: Overflow rate is Flow/Surface Area; Detention time is Volume of tank/Flow rate; and Depth= Volume/Surface area
A well produces water from a confined aquifer at a rate of 550 m3/day for a period of 30 days, and then the pumping rate decreases to 300 m³/day for another 20 days. What is the resulting drawdown at the well at the end of this 50 day pumping period if T = 50 m²/day, S = 0.001, and the well radius in 0.2 m?
