An urban watershed in Jefferson County is shown in Figure 1 below, along with the travel paths from the most remote points in each subarea. The details of the subareas are given in Table 1 below. Determine the 50 year peak flow for the drainage outlet G. Use the IDF chart for Jefferson County that is shown below. Use the NRCS Method (TR55) to determine time of concentration and estimate runoff coefficients using Table 15.2.3 (provided in Lesson Notes).
