SECTION 3 Flood Control Euaination <br />3.5.1 Capital Projects to Address Capacity Deficiencies <br />All flooding problems (i.e., capacity deficiencies) identified through modeling and proposed <br />capital projects (CPs) to address these problems are referenced in Table 3 -2 and presented in <br />Table 3 -5. Prior to this study, design standards for flood protection levels in Eugene were based <br />on the previous storm drainage master plan (OTAK 1990). The 1990 plan includes varying <br />degrees of protection depending on the size of the drainage area, type of system (open channel or <br />pipe), and type of roadway (local collector vs. major arterial). Depending upon these factors, the <br />standards for designing CIPs ranged from the 5 -year to the 50 -year recurrence interval storm. For <br />this plan, the City elected to retain the flood protection levels listed in the 1990 plan with the <br />exception that the minimum level of protection would be the 10 -year as opposed to the 5 -year <br />storm (see Section 3.1.4, Table 3 -1 of Volume 1 for exceptions). Flooding problems were <br />identified for the open waterways and the pipe system and CIPs were developed based on the <br />relevant design storm as listed in Table 3 -2. A flooding problem was identified for an open <br />waterway if the water depth exceeded the top of bank elevation. For the pipe system, surcharging <br />was allowed, however, if the water entered the street a flooding problem was identified. In all, 10 <br />flood control CPs focused on existing culvert replacement and upsizing of the culverts are <br />proposed. Two CPs are proposed that include regrading of the existing channel to improve <br />conveyance capacity. Three CPs are associated with providing storage to relieve predicted <br />capacity issues and one CP is associated with additional survey efforts. <br />Table 3 -5 <br />Capacity Deficiencies Identified Through Modeling and <br />Proposed Capital Projects to Address Them <br />Selected Flood Controlapital' <br />elected Flood Control Capital <br />Conduits Addressed with Capital <br />Project Name <br />Project Descri tion <br />Project <br />Al Channel <br />AM <br />Regrade the existing open channel <br />RSA1090B, RSA1090CI and C2, <br />segment (RSA1090B) from node <br />and RSA1090D <br />72789 to 78790 (18'). <br />Al -2 <br />Upsize and replace the existing 36" <br />RSA1090A, RSA1090B, <br />CMP culvert (RSA1090A) with a <br />RSA1090CI and C2, and <br />48" CMP culvert. <br />RSA1090D <br />Al -3 <br />Construct storage facilities at nodes <br />RSA1090A, RSA1090B, <br />72782 and 72102 to provide a total <br />RSA1090CI and C2, RSA1090D, <br />of 85 acre -ft of storage. <br />RSA1090E1, E2, and E3, <br />RSA1090F, RSA1080B, <br />RSA1060H, RSA1060M, <br />RSA10600, RSA1060Q, <br />RSA I060U, RSA 1100B.1, <br />RSA1100C, RSA1100D.1, <br />RSA1100E, RSA1100F.1, <br />RSA 1100G, RSA I100H, and <br />RSA 1100K <br />Al -4 <br />Upsize and replace the existing 24" <br />RSA I100I.1, RSA 1100J, <br />CMP culvert (RSA11001) with a 36" <br />RSA1110A1 and A2 <br />CMP culvert. <br />0: 25695978 Eugene RR -SC Final Basin P1an\Master P1anTINAL 2- 2010\Master_Plan 3- 11- 10_FINAL_ Word _Version.doc 3-11 <br />
