Document the source of any and all parameters and values that you chose to use. You may have to search the internet to find a CN value to fit the classes indicated above.
1000-acre watershed
HSG B
Antecedent moisture condition III
20% residential area (30% impervious)
80% pasture land with good condition
Storm = 5 in
Pasture land (CN = 39)
Residential area (CN = 57)
Adjusted Curve number for AMC III are
Residential area (CN = 57 * 1.33 = 75.81)
Pasture Land (CN = 39 * 1.517 = 59.163)
Composite CN = = = 62.4924
S = 1000/CN - 10 = 1000/62.4924 - 10 = 6 in
= 0.2 * 6 = 1.2 in
Runoff, Q =
Q = = 1.4735 in
Runoff volume = Area * Q = 1000 * 1.4735= 1473.5 acre-in = 122.792 acre-ft
