3)Reservoir leakage not collected by the underclrain system flows at 63 gpm,lhe long- <br /> term average flow through the Icakage meter. <br /> 4) All rainfall infiltrates the soil and emerges as springs on the slope on or above Mr. <br /> Bargreen's property. <br /> 5) Homes on septic tanks contribute 900 cubir feet per month of watcr to the slopes on or <br /> above Mr. Bazgreen's properly. <br /> The attached table summarizes the rcsults of this water budget analysis. For both drainage � <br /> channels,the hypothetical rcservoir leakage not collected by the drainage system,accounts for a <br /> small percentage of seepage or flow across Mr. Bazgrcen's property. The vast majority of <br /> groundwater or surface water Flow is attributable to precipitation that occurs uphill of Mr. <br /> Bazgreen's property. <br /> One method to reduce reservoir#4 leakage, which was suggested by Mr. Bargreen was <br /> installation of a hypalon liner. A hypalon liner would dramatically reduce, but not eliminate <br /> reservoir leakage. The cost of the liner would likely be at least $500,000. <br /> Conclusions: <br /> 1)The underdrain system appears to be functioning properly. <br /> 2) Even if the underdrain system is not collecting all rescrvoir leakage, it is unlikely that any of <br /> the leaked water is adversely impactinF Mr. Bazgreen's property. <br /> 3) Mr. Bargreen's property is located on slopes that can be naturnlly unstable. Water certainly <br /> can sontribute to the instability of these slopes,but reservoir leakage, if any, would be a minor <br /> contributor to a water-induced slope stability pmblem on Mr. Bargreen's property. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Do not pursue installation of a liner at reservoir#4. <br /> Dargrecn <br />
