In doing so, we would create a credit back to the city in between$ 5-7000.00 dollars for this project. Our reasoning is that utilizing the more expensive three piece system block below grade is neither productive nor cost effective. Please respond at your earliest convenience. Thank you, Thanks, James (Steve).

The protected slope would only move away from the trail (2 to 4 feet) as needed to makeup grade at 4:1. Feel free to call to discuss the intent of the detail.

I am on my way out to the job and will verify grades and get back with you. Thanks, James (Steve).

The existing ground is shown to scale for the area where we met onsite yesterday. The overall length of the 4:1 slope will vary slightly depending on the elevation of the trail. Let me know if you have any questions. Additional information will follow regarding:  Lake outfall elevation  Fishing Pier sleeves  Headwalls  Bridge decking Kyle Dykes, P.E., CFM StormWaterGroup 1100 Macon Street Fort Worth, Texas 76102 817.336.5773 Main 817.665.7171 Direct kdykes@tnpinc.com From: Steve Kenney [mailto:steve@jdkassoc.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 2013 3:15 PM To: Kyle Dykes Cc: kmarvin@coppelltx.gov; asamaniego@coppelltx.gov; Tim May; jelias@coppelltx.gov; marellano@coppelltx.gov Subject: RE: GeoWeb Gentlemen, Do we have a solution yet?

We found that the existing ground is at the 445.50 one foot below water. If we are to move out an additional 5 feet, the geoweb will be anywhere from 2-2.5 below the 446.50 water level. It is my suggestion after meeting with the geoweb sales rep that we maintain the 7 to 1 for the first 8 feet, and the second 8 feet to 4-1 or whatever the existing conditions dictate. Please respond at your earliest convenience. Thank you, Thanks, James (Steve). Kenney President JDK Associates, Inc. 940-686-6236 940-686-6318 3
