PURPOSE AND APPROACH
The USACE, Wilmington District is in the process of repairing the steep slope downstream of the right abutment of Philpott Dam, midway upslope following a landslide in May 2020. The purpose of this project is to provide a slope stability design that will reduce the risk of personnel injury and damage to infrastructure.
Drainage improvements are also proposed including a drop inlet for capturing runoff above project limits along the upper access road, and improvements to the existing storm system that discharges to the tailrace. An analysis of this existing storm system was performed along with an analysis of the pre- and post-development conditions for the watersheds that drain to it. This analysis was performed to determine what actions are needed to be taken to fulfill the water quality and quantity compliance requirements of the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (VDEQ) regulations, specifically 9VAC25-870 for stormwater runoff. This memorandum has been prepared to describe the following design calculations.
1. Calculate stormwater runoff areas draining to proposed drainage improvements at the project site.
2. Evaluate capacity of existing stormwater system adjacent to the powerhouse.
3. Size and specify four drop inlets (two new & two replacements).
4. Confirm the dimensions & size the stone for the proposed rock-flume on the re-graded slope.
5. Calculate the required post-development run-off rate for the lower watershed (outfall to tailrace) and determine the volume of detention required for the post-development condition.
See Figure 1 for an overview of the project and the calculations referenced above. Calculations were performed with guidance from the Virginia Administrative Code Section 9VAC25-870.

The analysis to determine inlet/pipe capacity for the upper access road was performed in 2021 utilizing Autodesk Storm and Sanitary Analysis (2019). Another analysis was performed in 2022-2023 which built upon the original analysis to determine the existing storm system capacity and to size the required detention for the lower watersheds. Computational Hydraulics International (CHI) PCSWMM software was used for this updated analysis. See Attachment E1 for the results of the Autodesk Storm and Sanitary Analysis for the 100-year, 24-hour and 50-year, 24-hour storm events as well as an overview figure of the delineated watershed to the upper access road inlet.
DROP INLET DETAILS AND PIPE CAPACITY
Upper Access Road Drainage Ditch
Stantec recommends a VDOT DI-12C drop inlet to capture runoff upstream of the project boundary from the upper access road drainage ditch that drains through the existing culvert running underneath the road. The multi-grate drop inlet can be specified to the desired length/grate segments required up to 13 ft – 8.75 inches.
Analysis of the inlet for the 100-year, 24-hour storm event showed that a 48 inch (L) x 24 inch (W) grate opening (double grate frame) captured the runoff. The inlet was modeled with a 30% clogging factor. The reason behind this is due to the inlet being on grade in a ditch where leaf litter could easily clog it up and produce additional bypass for the proposed ditch as litter accumulates. The pipe capacity was calculated and compared utilizing gravity flow (Manning’s Equation). Stantec recommends the use of a 36-inch HDPE smooth walled pipe. A standard VDOT winged headwall should be utilized on the adjacent slope. The analysis summary for the drop inlet and conveyance pipe are below:

Existing Storm System
The above analysis for the drop inlet and pipe for the upper access road drainage ditch was performed in 2021 using Autodesk Storm and Sanitary Analysis. An additional analysis was performed in 2022-2023 to determine the size of drop inlet necessary to replace two of the existing drop inlets within the existing storm system draining to the tailrace, as well as a new inlet that will capture runoff from a portion of the proposed grading. This analysis was carried out with guidance from Chapter 9 of the VDOT Drainage Manual. Here, the recommended design procedures for sizing grate inlets in a sag (typically in depressed medians or ditches) are as follows:
• Rational Method to determine design peak runoff rate.
• Assumed efficiency of grate will be reduced by 50% due to clogging.
• Capacity of inlet up to a depth of 5” is calculated as a weir, and capacity of inlet for depths greater than 17” is calculated as an orifice.
Nomographic solutions of the equations for weir and orifice flow are provided in Appendices 9C-13 through 9C-16 of the VDOT Drainage Manual for standard VDOT grate type inlets. These nomographic solutions were used along with calculated peak flow rates to determine the recommended drop inlets.
The pre- and post-development watershed analysis can be found in the following sections of this memo. The post development drainage areas that drain to inlets being sized were delineated as part of that analysis and were used here to calculate the Rational Method peak runoff.

Rational Method formula
Q = CiA
Where:
C = Area weighted runoff coefficient (VDOT Drainage Manual Appendix 6E-1)
• C = 0.3 for forested areas
• C = 0.9 for paved and roofed areas i =4.0 inches/hour (VDOT Drainage Manual Table 9-1).
A = Drainage Area (in acres)
Drainage areas were delineated from the proposed surface contours as part of the pre- and post-watershed analysis. Stormwater discharge results are summarized in Table 1.
Table 1: Summary of Design Approach/Standards
Drainage Area Area (acres) Weighted C Intensity (in/hr) Peak Runoff (cfs) Slope to DI-2 0.3 0.86 4 1.03
Slope to DI-3 0.4 0.86 4 1.38
Slope to New Inlet 1.98 0.33 4 2.61
From the analysis, it was determined that a dual-grated VDOT DI-12C would be sufficient to intercept the calculated peak flow rate for each drainage area.

EXISTING STORM SYSTEM REVIEW
As part of the hydrologic and hydraulic modeling for the project, analysis was performed on the existing storm system at the bottom of the slope adjacent to the powerhouse. The inlets were evaluated with the following design storms (See Attachment E2 for NOAA Rain Data):
• 25-year, 24-hour Total Rainfall (NOAA Atlas 14)
• 10-year, 24-hour Total Rainfall (NOAA Atlas 14)
• 5-year, 24-hour Total Rainfall (NOAA Atlas 14)
• 1-year, 24-hour Total Rainfall (NOAA Atlas 14)
During the 1-year, 24-hour storm event, flooding occurred at inlet DI-2, and during the 5-year, 24-hour storm event, flooding occurred at both inlets DI-2 and DI-3. The 8-inch RCP pipe linking DI-2 and DI-3 surcharged as well as the 8-inch RCP linking DI-3 to STMH-2 during both storm events. The same result was obtained during the 10-year, 24-hour and 25-year, 24-hour storm events. No other inlets or conveyance pipes experienced surcharging/flooding during the analysis. See Figure 2 for visual aid. It was determined that the two existing 8-inch RCP pipes connecting DI-2 to DI-3 and connecting DI-3 to STMH-2 are undersized in their existing condition, and it is recommended by Stantec that both existing 8-inch RCP pipes be replaced in place by two 18-inch corrugated-plastic-pipes (CPP), respectively, and that both DI-2 and DI-3 be replaced with VDOT DI-12C dual grated inlet. Neither pipe or inlet flooded or surcharged under this proposed condition during the analysis. Results of this analyses can be seen in Attachment E3.

Two unknown variables existed and may affect runoff calculations.
1. From previously provided survey information, an 18 inch RCP pipe ties into STMH-1 that flows from the Dam. The catchment area, slope of pipe and approximate length of pipe are all unknown and were not included in the analysis of the existing system. Based on site observations and discussion with USACE, it is believed that that the 18 inch RCP pipe does not receive flow and does not contribute drainage to the stormwater system.
2. A 6-inch PVC pipe found during survey exploration appears to link to another inlet but a catch basin was not located during field explorations. The pipe is in the vicinity of a portion of the landslide and the assumption is that the inlet was covered by debris. For the analysis, the watershed for this pipe was directed downstream to DI-4.

PROPOSED ROCK FLUME & DITCH EVALUATION
Three hydraulic analyses were performed to evaluate the proposed rock-lined flume that is to be constructed on the proposed benched hillside (displayed in Figure 3 below), the ditch draining to the proposed inlet at the bottom of this hillside, & the groin ditch between the existing slope & dam that drains to the existing DI-1.
Figure 3: Proposed Benching & Flume
The intent of the hydraulic analysis was to accomplish the following:
• Confirm the size & geometry of the proposed flume & ditch that drains to the new road inlet.
• Size the channel lining to be used in the proposed flume & ditch as well as the groin ditch.
It is worth noting that the proposed rock-flume is a grouted riprap flume; a conservative assumption was made to perform the channel lining sizing calculation as if the flume were a flexible-lining system (calculation doesn’t account for grout). Also, the existing groin ditch at Philpott Dam is not quite a “ditch” per say, it’s more of a grouted connector between the slope and the front face of the dam to limit seepage. Modifications made to the groin during construction are only intended to stabilize this area, not necessarily for this area to act as a conveyance channel for stormwater. Therefore, the intent of the calculation below is to confirm the stability of the groin ditch in consideration of the flow that will be applied over it & not to size & specify a new conveyance channel. The analytical approach for these calculations is summarized in Table 2 below.

PRE AND POST DEVELOPMENT HYDROLOGIC AND HYDRAULIC EVALUATION
The USACE, Wilmington District is currently working with the VDEQ regarding pre- and post-development runoff conditions for the Philpott Dam Landside Remediation site. Stantec was asked to compile pre-development and post-development runoff calculations. The governing water quantity standard that guided our analysis was channel protection for natural stormwater conveyance systems, as stated in VDEQ regulation 9VAC25-870-66 Part B-3. Here, it is stated that the maximum peak flow rate from the 1-year, 24-hour storm following a land-disturbing activity shall be determined by the following improvement factor (I.F.)
equation:
𝑄𝑄𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷 ≤ 𝐼𝐼.𝐹𝐹.∗

𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷
Where:
I.F.= Improvement Factor = 0.8 for sites larger than 1 acre in disturbance (our case)
R.V.=Runoff Volume (Cu. Feet)
Q=Peak Flow Rate (Cu. Feet/Second)
The general approach of this analysis was performed in CHI PCSWMM. The NRCS – SCS Curve Number Method was utilized in calculating runoff for the Philpott Dam Site as stated in VDEQ regulation 9VAC25-870- 72 - Design Storms and Hydrologic Methods. Per VDEQ, the 1-year, 24-hour storm event was utilized to obtain the peak flow rates and total runoff for the right abutment below upper access road watersheds. The NOAA Precipitation Data Server shows that the total rainfall for the 1-year, 24-hour storm event in Henry Co, Virginia is 3.04 inches. The pre- and post-development watersheds & outfall locations for the project site can be seen in Attachment E6 and E7, respectively. Attachment E6 and E7 also contains a summary table for the hydrology inputs for the project (i.e. curve numbers (CN) and times of concentration (TOC)), the flows from each drainage area and the total peak flow of the combined watershed at the outfall of the drainage system.
The outputs of the analysis that was performed in PCSWMM for the pre- and post-development conditions for the 1-year, 24-hour storm event can be found in Attachment E8.
Pre-Development Overview
The existing site is steep and covered in a mixture of forested areas, moderate grass cover, and rock outcrops scattered throughout the downstream right abutment slope. Per the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site is composed entirely of hydrologic soil group C. The right abutment slope was determined to have a curve number of 79 (fair grass cover, 50-75%) due to the moderate grass cover and scattered rock outcrops.
Impervious areas were given a curve number of 98; this includes the road to the tailrace and powerhouse. A summary of pre-development conditions is compiled in Table 3 below.

\\Us0243-ppfss01\shared_projects\1784132019\technical production\design_calcs\H&H analysis\100%_H&H_Memo_03.2023\body.4.20.23.docx
Table 3: Pre - Development Conditions for Right Abutment Slope
Post-Development Overview
To stabilize the slope, the intent is to remove unstable material along the slope to get down to stable rock.
This will increase the curve number and runoff for each watershed within the area of disturbance. The generic curve number for gravel, bedrock, or compacted rock is listed in TR-55 as 89 for hydrologic soil group C. This number was then utilized to calculate new weighted averages for each watershed. Due to the proposed grading & benching on the hillside, the catchment areas changed slightly from the pre-development condition.
The total contributing drainage area to the stormwater system increased by roughly an acre, resulting in the addition of 4 new watersheds on the proposed benched area of the graded hillside. Each of these watersheds will drain directly to the proposed rock-flume that runs down the benched hillside. This flume will outlet to a proposed inlet and pipe connecting drainage from the new watersheds to the stormwater system. See Table 4 below for a summary of post-development conditions.
Table 4: Post - Development Conditions for Right Abutment Slope
The VDEQ requires that a land disturbance/project discharging to a “natural stormwater conveyance”, adhere to the methodology stated in section B.3.a of Channel Protection Regulation 9VAC25-870-66. The pre- and post-development flowrates were taken as the routed flowrate at the outlet of the total watershed. The following calculations were performed for pre-development and post-development conditions of the right abutment slope below the upper access road.

STORMWATER DETENTION REQUIREMENT RESULTS
To fulfill the requirements of VDEQ regulation 9VAC25-870-66 Part B-3 for channel protection of natural stormwater conveyance systems and meet the allowable post-development peak flow rate, it was determined that stormwater detention would be required for the lower watershed (outfall to tailrace). The required storage volume for the design storm was determined using PCSWMM. The outputs of the analysis that was performed in PCSWMM for the post-development conditions for the 1-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50- and 100-year, 24-hour storm events can be found in Attachment E4. Design and modeling considerations were as follows:
• Size the detention vault and outlet system to confine the post-development peak flow rate to the calculated allowable peak flow rate for the 1-year, 24-hour storm event.
• Size the detention vault and outlet system to pass the 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year, 24-hour storm events without flooding the vault or stormwater system.

PCSWMM modeling resulted in a required minimum detention storage for the lower watershed of 3,625 cubic feet to detain the post-development peak flow rate for the 1-year, 24-hour rainfall event to 4.0 cfs. A 5,000 cubic feet underground storage vault was chosen for the design to allow the larger storm events (up to the 100-year, 24-hour event) to pass through the system without causing flooding and provide 1 foot of freeboard inside the structure.
Features of the stormwater detention vault that were used in modeling are as follows:
• Outlet structure with 7.5” bottom orifice to limit the release from the 1-year, 24-hour storm event and riser structure with overflow weir to allow larger storm events to pass without causing flooding.
• Vault which has 3,625 cubic feet of storage volume to the overflow, to detain runoff from the 1-year, 24-hour storm event and pass up to the 100-year, 24-hour event without flooding.
• 4 new stormwater conveyance pipes, each sized at 24” in diameter, and 2 new manholes to convey stormwater from STMH-2 to the new detention structure as well as 1 new inlet to capture runoff from the additional post-development watershed.
Results of modeling within PCSWMM convey that the above detention vault configuration can detain the 1-year, 24-hour event with an outflow limited to the allowable post-development peak flow rate of 4.0 cfs.
Modeling results also convey that the structure can pass the 100-year, 24-hour storm event without flooding the stormwater system and leaving 1 foot of freeboard within the structure. The modeled output for energy balance compliance can be found below in Table 5.

FLOOD PROTECTION
Flood protection for the project has been assessed for compliance in accordance with 9VAC25-870-66.C. The site has one discharge point that flows directly to the Smith River, as displayed in Figure 4 below. The location of the regulatory floodway in relation to the Proposed Outfall can also be seen in Figure 4. As shown, the runoff from the outfall drains directly to a mapped FEMA floodway; which is a the limit of analysis for the assessment of downstream flood protection stated in 9VAC25-870-66.C.3. Table 6 below lists the pre- & post-development volume, flow rates, & depths for the 10-year, 24-hour storm at the outfall for reference.

WATER QUALITY COMPLIANCE
Water quality has been assessed for the entirety of the project site in accordance with 9VAC25-870-63 and reduction requirements have been evaluated using the Virginia Runoff Reduction Method (VRRM). Table 7 below shows the site landcover characteristics for post-development conditions and Table 8 shows the required phosphorous reduction for the site. This information is also provided in Attachment E10, which shows the full VRRM calculation spreadsheet for new development and Attachment E11, which shows post-development land use maps and soils information.
Table 7: Land Cover Documentation (VRRM New Development)
Table 8: Phosphorus Reduction Requirement (VRRM New Development)
The post-development land-cover accounts for 14.00 acres of conserved forest / open space. The areas being conserved have been included in Attachment E11 of this report. These areas will be recorded under easement prior to permit termination.

CLOSURE
The following are noted from these calculations:
1. 4 drop inlets were sized as part of this evaluation, 2 new and 2 replacements. A dual grated VDOT DI-12C drop inlet is recommended for each.
2. It is recommended that the pipes connecting DI-2 to DI-3 and DI-3 to STMH-2 each be replaced with 18-inch diameter CPP.
3. Pre and post development runoff calculations indicate that stormwater detention is necessary, and it is recommended that a 5,000 cubic feet underground detention vault be constructed.
4. Calculations discussed in this memorandum only considered stormwater runoff from the right abutment hillside.

1 Precipitation frequency (PF) estimates in this table are based on frequency analysis of partial duration series (PDS).
Numbers in parenthesis are PF estimates at lower and upper bounds of the 90% confidence interval. The probability that precipitation frequency estimates (for a given duration and average recurrence interval) will be greater than the upper bound (or less than the lower bound) is 5%. Estimates at upper bounds are not checked against probable maximum precipitation (PMP) estimates and may be higher than currently valid PMP values.
