INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This report describes the analysis and results of a hydrologic and hydraulic study that was performed on the Dingmans Falls Access Bridge #1 (Structural Number 4320-019P) over Dingmans Creek. The bridge is within Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area which is managed by the National Park Service. The proposed project involves replacing a prestressed concrete box beam (CIP Deck) that carries the Dingmans Fall Access Road (NPS Route 218) over Dingmans Creek. The site is located in Delaware Township, Pike County, Pennsylvania. Its location on the USGS quadrangle map entitled Lake Maskenozha, PA is approximately 41° 13' 29.20" N latitude and 74° 52' 48.10" W longitude. The project location is shown in Figure 1 and USGS Topo Map in Appendix A.

FIGURE 1: PROJECT LOCATION

The project is necessary because the existing bridge is in fair to poor condition overall. The proposed project involves replacing the existing structure with the same horizontal alignment and slightly vertical raise, requiring minimal approach roadway work. There will be no reduction in the existing waterway opening.

SITE DATA

A topographic survey was conducted by the FHWA/EFL Survey team. All elevations in this report are referenced to the NAVD 1988 datum unless otherwise noted. FHWA/EFL conducted a scoping field review on November 15, 2016, and a plan-in-hand field review on October 8, 2020, to collect

6 H-H Report NP DEWA 10(6)218(2) information for the H&H study. Normal flow estimates were based on observed water depths during the site visit and the surveyed edge-of-stream elevations.

EXISTING STRUCTURE

The existing structure is a single-span prestressed concrete box beam bridge with a cast-in-place (CIP) deck. The bridge is 59 feet long with a clear span width of 46 feet, an out-to-out length of 23.1 feet, and a 26-degree skew relative to the flow direction. The abutments are aligned with the stream flow and have no piers.

The bridge as-built drawings show the low chord at 464.45 feet, but field mapping indicates this is incorrect. Using a combination of field mapping and the Bridge Inspection (BIP) Report, the low chord of the existing bridge was estimated. The BIP Report suggests the low steel elevation (LSEL) is 3 feet below the top of the bridge, and based on the field mapping, the top of the deck is at approximately 448.72 feet. This places the minimum low chord elevation at approximately 445.92 feet.

The bridge has timber rails on both sides measuring about 2.5 feet above the deck. The bridge deck and both approach roadways are superelevated. The minimum hydraulic opening is approximately

525.08 square feet. Based on field observations and mapping data, the water level in the stream averaged 1 foot and varied up to 2 feet. Therefore, with the estimated low chord elevation at 445.92 feet, a thalweg elevation of 435.75 feet, and a maximum observed depth of 2 feet, the minimum underclearance is approximately 8.17 feet (from the low chord elevation and water surface).

The BIP Report indicates the structure is exhibiting advanced deterioration of the transverse tensioning system, rotation of the southernmost beam, significant gaps between box beams, widespread cracking on the undersides of the box beams with exposed and rusted rebar and prestressing strands. The report also notes minor to moderate deterioration of the concrete abutments and wingwalls, including cracking with efflorescence and staining, and several areas of delamination. The BIP report is in Appendix B, and pre-development photos are in Appendix C.

Approximately 5800 feet downstream of the bridge is the confluence with the Delaware River.

About 1000 feet upstream is the Dingmans Falls Access Bridge #2 (SN 4320-005P), a single-span bridge carrying Dingmans Falls Access Road (NPS Route 218) over Dingmans Creek. Both Hydraulic Controls are outside of the limits of the hydraulic model and does not affect the hydraulics at the site according to FHWA Publication No. FHWA-HIF-19-061, 2D Hydraulic Modeling for Highways in the River Environment. The confluence with the Delaware River and upstream bridge are far enough from the area of interest to allow for natural flow distribution.

7 H-H Report NP DEWA 10(6)218(2)

PROPOSED STRUCTURE

The proposed structure is a single-span prestressed concrete adjacent box beam bridge (AASHTO BI-48) with a LSEL of 446.37 feet on the same horizontal roadway alignment. The bridge will be 65 feet long with a clear span width of 59 feet, an out-to-out length of 28.13 feet, and a 39-degree skew relative to the flow direction. The proposed structure will include a slight realignment of Abutment #1 to better fit the channel, a 6-foot setback for Abutment #2 to move it away from the creek, and a slightly raised roadway profile with minimal approach work.

The project limits extend approximately 89 feet on the west approach and 46 feet on the east approach for tie-ins and construction activities. The proposed bridge will have rails on both sides measuring about 2.16 feet above the deck. The bridge deck and both approach roadways will be superelevated. The minimum underclearance, from the low chord elevation to the normal water surface elevation, is approximately 8.62 feet. The minimum hydraulic opening, the lesser of the upstream and downstream openings, is approximately 552.83 square feet. Grading will extend from the existing edge of water to the proposed abutments. Drawings of the proposed structure and roadway approaches (R Sheets) are in Appendix D.

FLOODING

High water marks from historical flood events were not observed on or around the existing bridge during site visit. The project is located in a National Park, due to the remote location of the project site, local testimony was not obtained during the site investigation.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS

Dingmans Creek is a perennial stream and upstream tributary of the Delaware River Basin. The Pennsylvania Water Quality Standards, Drainage list C, classify Dingmans Creek as a High-Quality, Cold-Water Fishery (HQ-CWF, MF). Dingmans Creek is an upstream tributary of the Middle Delaware River, which is classified as WWF, MF under Chapter 93.

25 Pa. Code Chapter 93. Water Quality Standards (pacodeandbulletin.gov)

The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) lists Dingmans Creek as natural reproduction trout waters but does not list it as a Class A or stocked trout stream. Therefore, in-stream restrictions such as time restrictions for construction activities for a stocked trout stream are not applicable. Trout Map print screen is in Appendix E.

8 H-H Report NP DEWA 10(6)218(2)

FISH PASSAGE

The local fish habitat will be temporarily affected by construction of the proposed bridge. The proposed bridge is longer than the existing bridge resulting is less constriction of the channel;

therefore, the fish habitat will function as normal when the proposed bridge is in place.

STREAM CHARACTERISTICS

The site is within a forested landscape. The past and present uses of the area are for conservation and recreation. The upstream and downstream overbanks are steep sloped with vegetation, shrubs, and trees along the channel banks.

USGS Web Soil Survey indicates the type of soil is in Hydrologic group A which are soils with high infiltration rates and a soil classification of very stony soils with a combination of very gravelly loam (CL-ML) and very cobbly sandy loam (GC). The USGS Web Soil Map is in Appendix F.

The natural channel has a profile gradient of 0.005, manning n of 0.04, and flows in an easterly direction. The stream has a well-defined channel upstream and downstream of the bridge. The bottom and top channel widths vary through the study area but varies from 33 and 50 feet. The channel has a depth of approximately 40 feet from bed to top of bank and side slopes that vary from 1V:0.5H to 1V:2H in the vicinity of the bridge. During the field mapping, our survey team observed that the water level in the stream averaged one foot and varied up to maximum depth of 2 feet.

Due to the location of the low chord relative to flood elevations, no potential for ice jams at the bridge exists. Water stages at the project site are not affected by reservoirs or flood control projects.

HYDROLOGIC ANALYSIS

The Dingmans Falls Creek is within the FEMA mapped floodplains Zone A, which indicates that there are no base flood elevations determined by a detailed study at this location.

We considered using two USGS stream gages (01438500 and 0144000) located several miles from our structure to develop a flood-frequency curve. However, the drainage area of these gages differs by more than 25% from our structure’s drainage area, making them unsuitable according to the HDS2, Highway Hydrology Third Edition, Chapter 5.4 area-ratio method.

Instead, hydrology analysis was performed using the USGS StreamStats® online tool for hydrologic analysis. This tool automatically delineates drainage areas and computes peak flow discharges using regional regression equations. Since USGS StreamStats is approved by the FHWA/EFL, no

9 H-H Report NP DEWA 10(6)218(2) further hydrology adjustments are needed for this project. The analysis showed that the drainage area is 15.89 square miles, with 81% forest, 16.7% urban, and 10% ponds and lakes. The watershed does not contain any carbonate rock. The USGS StreamStats data is in Appendix G and FEMA Firmette in Appendix J.

ACT 167

The Proposed Project occurs entirely on federal-owned property and is funded through federal transportation funding sources. In addition, Pike County does not have an approved Act 167 Plan for Dingmans Creek watershed.

DESIGN EVENTS

The design standard is to provide 2 feet of freeboard for the 50-year return period per the PDDM, Section 7.4.3.4. Please refer to Table 1 for a summary of the flow rates along with their corresponding WSEL, and freeboards. Based on our analysis, the proposed structure meets the design standards per the PDDM. SRH-2D Cross Sections with WSELs are the entrance of the proposed bridge are in Appendix H.

HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS

The hydraulic analysis was performed using the Sedimentation and River Hydraulics model (SRH- 2D) within the Surface-water Modeling System (SMS Version 13.02.14). SRH-2D is the preferred river modeling approach by FHWA/EFL for river crossing structures.

https://files.dep.state.pa.us/Water/BPNPSM/StormwaterManagement/Act%20167/Act167List_2.15.2024.xlsx https://www.dep.pa.gov/Business/Water/CleanWater/StormwaterMgmt/Pages/Act-167.aspx

10 H-H Report NP DEWA 10(6)218(2)

The design objective of the 2-D hydraulic modeling for this project was to obtain the water surface elevations (WSELs), flow depth and velocities for analysis of scour potential at the proposed bridge crossing. Existing, proposed, and temporary conditions were modeled based on field survey data, proposed site modifications, and peak discharge calculations. As requested by DEP, the SRH-2D model and HYD toolbox files will also be provided with this memo.

FEMA CONSIDERATIONS

The Dingmans Falls Creek is within the FEMA mapped floodplains Zone A, which indicates that there are no base flood elevations determined by a detailed study at this location. Based on our analysis, the proposed structure will not increase the 100-year water surface elevations, it will reduce it by 0.46 feet, as shown in Table 1. SRH-2D Stream Profile Plot is in Appendix I. Floodplain delineation comparison is in Appendix J.

TOPOGRAPHIC DATA

Field topographic was collected by FHWA/EFL survey team. This survey data extended approximately 575 feet upstream and 800 feet downstream of the bridge, and 175 feet beyond the channel top of slope. The vertical datum for all sources is NAVD 88, the horizontal datum for all sources is NAD 83. Projection was set to State Plane Coordinate System, Zone: Pennsylvania North (FIPS 3701).

SMS MODEL

The modeling mesh is a collection of vertices, edges, and faces defining the three-dimensional spatial information of the ground surface. SRH-2D uses a finite element mesh to define the geometric surface and set the modeling limits. The SRH-2D modeling site extends from approximately 575 feet upstream of the crossing to approximately 800 feet downstream. The model domain width was sized to extend a conservative distance to capture the anticipated flood boundaries.

Both the patch and paving mesh type were utilized to create the model mesh. Triangular paving was primarily used in the overbank regions while rectangular patching was used throughout the channel and the crossing. The mesh contains roughly 8,000 elements.

The mesh extents and total number of elements was developed to best capture geometric features impacting conveyance while also minimizing model inefficiencies and increased computational time. Upstream and downstream model extents were set to be far enough upstream and downstream to fully depict any impacts caused by the project based on our FHWA Publication Number: HIF-19-061.

Roughness coefficients, or Manning’s ‘n’ values, for the stream channel and overbank areas were determined based on field observation, aerial photographs, and Manning's n Values presented by Chow (1959). Generally, a value of 0.040 was used for the channel, and 0.08 for the vegetated overbank areas.

11 H-H Report NP DEWA 10(6)218(2)

All simulations were run in a steady state. Peak discharges, determined using StreamStats, were used as Inlet Q boundary conditions. And the SMS “Channel Calculator” tool was used to compute and assign a normal depth for the outflow boundary condition using a rating curve.

All project SRH-2D model controls were set to a 1-second timestep. All simulations were set to a dry initial condition, and the total period of time that the simulation run analyzed was set to 3-hours.

This was a long enough period of time to allow the model to reach a steady state solution for all simulation runs. Output frequency was set to 15-minute intervals. The default parabolic turbulence parameter option was selected and set to the default value of 0.7.

EXISTING BRIDGE DATA

Existing bridge geometry, abutment and wingwall locations and their respective elevations were obtained directly from the field survey map.

PROPOSED BRIDGE DATA

Proposed bridge geometry, abutment and wingwall locations and their respective elevations are based on the proposed EFL Bridge team TS&L and in accordance with the Site Data section of this memo. The terrain file used in the proposed conditions SMS simulations was modified to incorporate proposed grading and riprap layout through the bridge crossing. Drawings of the proposed structure (R Sheets) is in Appendix D. Proposed Contours (M Sheets) are in Appendix L.

SMS MODEL RESULTS

Since there are no FEMA Cross Sections or BFEs available for FEMA Zone A, we created two observation cross sections within our model to evaluate changes in existing and proposed conditions along our channel for several design events. One cross section is upstream of the structure, and one is downstream. Refer to Table 2 for details. SHR-2D Upstream and Downstream Cross Section plots are in the Appendix K. As requested by PA DEP, the SRH-2D model will also be provided with this memo.

25-year storm

Water surface elevations are reduced by an average of 0.16 feet upstream and 0.40 feet downstream of the structure with no backwater increases. Stream velocities are also reduced in the reach upstream and downstream of the proposed bridge. The proposed low chord does not contact the 25-year water surface, and neither roadway approach is overtopped.

50-year storm

Water surface elevations are reduced by an average of 0.50 feet upstream and 0.17 feet downstream, with no backwater increases. Stream velocities are also reduced in the reach upstream and downstream of the proposed bridge. The proposed structure will meet the FHWA/EFL PDDM design standard of 2 feet of freeboard over the 50-year return period, and no roadway overtopping occurs.

100-year storm

Water surface elevations are reduced by an average of 0.01 feet upstream and 0.20 feet downstream, with no backwater increases. Stream velocities are also reduced in the reach upstream and downstream of the proposed bridge. The existing bridge has 2.81 feet of freeboard, while the proposed structure will provide 3.72 feet of freeboard over the 100-year return period.

The proposed low chord will not be impacted by the 100-year water surface, and neither roadway approach will be overtopped.

VALIDATION

Our SRH-2D models simulations ran successfully, and no errors were reported.

Typically, an SRH-2D model calibration and validation process starts with the collection of observed data from a historical event near the project area. Then, upon completion of the model simulation, we compare the computed WSEs and observed values. If the computed WSE results match the observed data, then the model is considered to be calibrated and validated.

However, high water marks from historical flood events were not observed on or around the existing bridge during site visit and given the remote location of the project site. For projects without historical flood data, we typically perform a sensitivity testing on the SRH-2D models to determine confidence in the results. Various model parameters were adjusted to understand the model's sensitivity, and the results were found adequate.

13 H-H Report NP DEWA 10(6)218(2)

Additionally, we evaluated the overall SRH-2D model mesh quality using an Angle Representation Region (ARR) plot. This ensures a balance between detailed ground representation, appropriate hydraulic resolution, and model run times. The mesh elements for this project fall within the good quality threshold according to the ARR plot.

FIGURE 2: ANGLE REPRESENTATION REGION (ARR) PLOT

TEMPORARY CONDITIONS

An erosion and sedimentation control (E&S) plan has been developed to limit impacts on the perennial stream during the construction of the new bridge. The construction will be done in several phases/stages. This memo focuses on the two temporary stream diversions needed for the abutment construction and their effects on water surface elevations. Detailed construction sequence information is available in the E&S plans (M Sheets) in Appendix L.

The first temporary stream diversion will be along the north side of the channel for Abutment #1, and the second will be along the south side for the construction of Abutment #2. These diversions will not be installed simultaneously; only one diversion will be in place at a time during different construction phases/stages.

We ran an SRH-2D model simulation for the two phases/stages to calculate the increase in water surface elevation caused by each temporary stream diversion. The mesh elements created for these models matches the width and location of the proposed diversion width. These elements were assigned a "none" mesh element type. This setting creates a vertical wall along those elements and assume them as dry. This method helps us estimate the resulting water surface elevation increase.

*Figure 3C shows the water surface elevation at the upstream end for abutment 1 is 439.77 feet.

However, the SMS model indicates that some flow will bypass and slightly raise the water surface elevation where the stream diversion meets the banks. To ensure a dry working zone, we will use 440 feet as the water surface elevation to determine the minimum elevation for the top of the temporary diversion for abutment 1.

The 2-year flood event (540 cfs) was used to evaluate potential flood impacts during construction.

Our results show the maximum backwater increase of 0.91 feet from the existing conditions for a 2-year event. As a result, and to provide the 6-inch freeboard required by the EFL Detail E158-07, the temporary diversion for Abutment 1 should be placed at a minimum elevation of 440.50 feet, and the diversion for Abutment 2 at a minimum elevation of 400.05 feet.

Although some site disturbance will occur, the effects on the existing environment will not be significant. Due to the nature of bridge projects, construction activities close to the stream are unavoidable. However, proper implementation of soil erosion control measures, as detailed in the E&S plan (Appendix L) will minimize the impact on the stream.

SCOUR ANALYSIS

The scour design for Dingmans Falls Access Bridge #1 was performed for a 100-year storm event.

Since the bridge does not overtop, we evaluated scour for the worst-case scenario between a 200-year and 500-year storm event, as per Chapter 7 of the PDDM and the TechBrief: Hydraulic Considerations for Shallow Abutment Foundations (dated 12/21/18).

Scour analysis was performed using the Hydraulic toolbox software and SRH-2d models. The Hydraulic Toolbox imports geometry from the SRH-2D hydraulic model and uses the Bridge Scour Calculator to predict scour. The Bridge Scour Calculator is based on the latest FHWA HEC-18 and

17 H-H Report NP DEWA 10(6)218(2)

HEC-20 guidelines. Riprap design was performed using the Hydraulic Toolbox Riprap Calculator tool which is based on the latest FHWA HEC-23, V2 guideline.

The D50 of 0.0164 feet. (5 mm) was obtained from boring logs samples at the structure, and subsequent particle size analysis performed for this location. Since there is no additional information available for long term degradation, 1 foot of channel degradation was assumed. The boring logs samples also indicated that in the north abutment will be bearing on rock, and the south abutment will be bearing on competent native soil. Based on the TechBrief, Subsection 2.3(F), if the new shallow foundation cannot be keyed into competent rock, the top of the spread footing should be set below the worst-case total scour depth to avoid the need for scour countermeasures. Please refer to Figure 5 for the summary of scour depths and elevations to be used in the design of the foundations of the structure.

FIGURE 7: VELOCITIES AT THE PRO BRIDGE CL

The analysis results indicated that the worst-case total scour elevation of 433.66 feet occurs during a 500-year storm. The channel thalweg at the bridge outlet is 435.75 feet. Bridge drawings show that the top of the spread footing for both abutments will be set at an elevation of 433 feet, which is below the maximum anticipated scour depth. Therefore, scour is not a concern, and no scour countermeasures are required. However, future erosion is a potential concern at Abutment #2. To mitigate this, we recommend placing Class 3 riprap with a depth of 24 inches at a minimum slope of 1.5H:1V. Riprap layout and plan view(R-Sheets) are in Appendix D. Riprap Analysis Report is in Appendix M.

RISK ASSESSMENT

Based on our analysis results, the proposed project will not increase the risk of flooding upstream or downstream of the proposed bridge. The project results in no increases to the water surface elevation for 25-, 50-, 100-, 200- and 500-year flood events. The overtopping event for the existing and proposed bridge is larger than the 500-year flood; therefore, the upper limit of serviceability at the project site will remain the same from the existing condition.

Temporary conditions will result in a maximum backwater increase of 0.91 feet for the 2-year event. The temporary 2-year flood boundary will be confined to the main channel in existing and temporary conditions and will not affect any structures in the floodplain. The temporary 2-year water surface elevation increases will not increase risk to adjacent properties; therefore, flowage easements will not be obtained.

CONCLUSION

A hydrologic and hydraulic study was performed on the Dingmans Falls Access Bridge #1 (SN 4320- 019P) over Dingmans Creek. The proposed project will replace the existing single-span Prestressed Concrete Box Beam (CIP Deck structure) with a single-span P/S Adjacent Box Beam (AASHTO BI-

48) structure following the same horizontal alignment and a slightly vertical raise, requiring minimal approach roadway work.

The proposed structure will meet the FHWA/EFL PDDM design standard of 2 feet of freeboard over the 50-year return period. The existing and proposed bridges will not overtop for the 500-year event and will have significant freeboard. The proposed project will not increase water surface elevations upstream or downstream of the bridge for the 25-, 50-, 100-, 200- and 500-year flood events. The structure has been designed to provide a stream crossing that safely conveys flood flows without increasing the risk of flooding to surrounding areas. Scour is not a concern because the top of the spread footing is set below the worst-case total scour depth. However, riprap is recommended at Abutment #2 to mitigate potential future erosion.
