4.4    WBNM Analysis Pre-Development Scenario


A WBNM was approximated for the existing catchments according to existing site parameters.
The model estimated that the existing 1% AEP peak flow discharge from the site was
0.8m3/s overall. Pre-development peak flow rates for all design storms are provided in Table
4-4.

The Rational Method was used to provide an estimate of a range of flows for the total pre-
development catchment for comparison and verification of the WBNM model. See Appendix
D for calculations. The Rational Method results are within 20% of the results obtained from
the WBNM analysis for the pre-development case across all storm events. From the
comparison of results, it is determined that the Rational Method verification corresponds well
with the WBNM analysis results.
