Woodridge Channel Improvements — Concept Study (MacArthur to 750' west)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Project Understanding & Location
stn
teague nail & perkins
Project Understanding — The Woodridge channel has a history of flooding and poses chronic
maintenance issues for the City. The purpose of this concept study is to identify improvement alternatives
that could reduce or eliminate each of these issues. The focus of this study is to identify methods for
completely enclosing the channel and provide Opinions of Probable Construction Cost (OPCC's). This
report is intended to aid the City's evaluation of improvement alternatives and whether they are viable.
Project Location — Woodridge Channel traverses the Woodridge Subdivision located southwest of the
MacArthur/Sandy Lake Blvd. intersection. The subject portion of stream runs parallel to Sandy Lake Rd.
along its south side, from MacArthur Blvd. to approximately 750' (ft) west. Woodridge Channel is an
unstudied stream per FEMA's FIS (Panel: 481 13CO155 J, Aug. 23, 2001) and the City -Wide Storm
Water Management Study (Jan. 1991).
Existing Conditions
Analysis Methods — Peak discharges for this study were developed using a detailed HEC -HMS (v.3.5)
model for the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100 -year storm (see Table 1). The watershed is considered to
be in its ultimate developed condition for the purposes of this study. Hydraulic computations for this
study are approximate in nature, and are based on aerial survey data, record drawings, and field
observations. No topographic field survey was performed for this study.
Results — The existing channel is trapezoidal in shape, vegetated, and generally has capacity to convey
a 25 -yr storm with 1' (ft) of freeboard. The downstream end of the project is a 2-8x6 MBC at
MacArthur Blvd. This culvert operates under inlet control and currently has a 25 -yr capacity as well.
Environmental Permitting — An environmental assessment was performed as part of this study which
indicates the existing channel would be classified as Jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. by the United
States Army Corp. of Engineers (USACE). Improvements to enclose or armor the channel will require an
Individual Permit and associated mitigation in accordance with Section 404 (Clean Water Act). Onsite
mitigation would not meet project goals, meaning purchasing mitigation credits from a USACE approved
mitigation bank will likely be required. The anticipated cost for mitigation is $165,000.

Improvements
The following paragraphs summarize the improvements necessary for each improvement alternative. The
limits of improvements are shown on Exhibits 2 and 3 of Appendix A. Environmental mitigation costs are
the same for all options and are reflected in the OPCC's listed below.
Option 1: Box Culvert Enclosure (100 -YR Design) — This option entails constructing 750 LF of 2-9x6 MBC,
and 1 10 LF of 1-6x6 RCB. The 1-6x6 is needed for additional capacity at MacArthur, and may be
suitable for boring and jacking. The culvert system would be backfilled to create relatively flat ground

along Sand Lake Rd., making it suitable for a linear park. The anticipated construction cost is
$1,700,000 (rounded), including environmental mitigation. No property acquisition is anticipated.
Option 2: Con/Span Enclosure (100 -YR Design) — This option entails constructing 750 LF of 25'x6'
Con/Span (bridge structure), and 1 10 LF of 1-6x6 RCB. The 1-6x6 is needed for additional capacity at
MacArthur, and may be suitable for boring and jacking. The Con/Span system would be backfilled to
create relatively flat ground along Sand Lake Rd., making it suitable for a linear park. The anticipated
construction cost is $2,200,000, including environmental mitigation. No property acquisition is
anticipated.

(1) The MacArthur culvert has 25 -yr capacity with freeboard and 50 -yr capacity with no freeboard.
Conclusion
The subject reach of Woodridge Channel is undersized and requires chronic maintenance. Each one of
the options presented above will address these concerns by: providing 100 -yr design capacity,
effectively eliminating the need for channel maintenance, and enhancing the aesthetic of the Sandy Lake
Rd. corridor. Option 1 (Box Culvert) is anticipated to provide a significant cost savings and possibly a
shorter construction time. The cost of Option 2 (Con/Span) is significantly higher, but could be reduced if
soil conditions permit less foundation work than anticipated. The Con/Span offers more room for
maintenance access and better aesthetic at the opening.

Project Understanding
Teague Nall and Perkins, Inc. (TNP) was contracted by the City of Coppell to evaluate concept level
solutions to mitigate flood hazards and maintenance issues along a portion of Woodridge Channel. The
focus of this study is to identify methods for completely enclosing the channel and provide Opinions of
Probable Construction Cost (OPCC's). This report is intended to aid the City's evaluation of improvement
alternatives and whether they are viable.
Project Location & Background
Woodridge Channel traverses the Woodridge Subdivision located southwest of the MacArthur/Sandy
Lake Blvd. intersection. The subject portion of stream runs parallel to Sandy Lake Rd. along its south side,
from MacArthur Blvd. to approximately 750' (ft) west. Woodridge Channel is an unstudied stream per
FEMA's FIS (Panel: 4811 3C01 55 J, Aug. 23, 2001) and the City -Wide Storm Water Management Study
(Jan. 1991).
Hydrology
Existing Conditions
A hydrologic analysis has been prepared as part of this study. Hydrographs and peak discharges were
developed using HEC -HMS (v.3.5), with parameters developed as described below. A summary of the
100 -year peak discharges is listed in Table 1. A digital copy of the model is included in Appendix E.
Hydrologic Parameter Methodologies
➢ Area — Drainage basins were delineated using 2' (ft) interval contours (provided by City), and
then adjusted based on record drawings for Woodridge Subdivision and field verification. Four
(4) sub -basins were delineated to properly account for watershed timing and to develop peak
discharges at key design points along the stream (See Exhibit 1).
➢ Time of Concentration (Tc) — The longest flow path for each sub -basin was delineated based
on topography, aerial photos, record drawings, and City GIS data. Actual flow times were
computed using the TR -55 methodology; consisting of sheet flow, shallow flow, pipe flow, and
channel flow.
➢ Composite Curve Number — Composite curve numbers were weighted by area based on
hydrologic soil type and landuse. In general the curve number values used reflect l/4 acre
residential lots (SCS TR -55, Table 2.2). The following values were used: Soil Type A (61), B (75),
C (83), D (87).
➢ Percent Impervious — Composite curve numbers were weighted based on area and landuse.
Impervious surfaces are accounted for by the composite curve numbers, therefore the separate
impervious value field in the model is zero for all sub -basins.
➢ Soil Type — Drainage basins were overlaid on the NRCS soil survey for Dallas County for the
purpose of calculating the percentage of each hydrologic soil group (A, B, C, and D).
➢ Routing — The Muskingum Cunge method was used for channel routing. By defining the channel
shape, roughness, slope, and length, the HMS computations are able to account for timing delay
of the flood wave, as well as approximate valley storage and associated peak attenuation.
Computation summaries for the above parameters are provided in Appendix B.

Due to the conceptual nature of this study, . Digital models and model summaries (HEC -RAS, and PDF's)
are provided in Appendix C (compact disk).
Summary of Analysis Methods
➢ Existing Conditions — FlowMaster (Bentley Systems, Inc.) was used to calculate normal depth for
the channel. CulvertMaster (Bentley Systems, Inc.) was used to calculate culvert headwater.
CulvertMaster utilizes FHWA culvert hydraulic equations to determine Inlet/Outlet control,
mannings equation for normal depth tailwater, and the broad crested weir equation for
roadway overtopping. The existing A -10x8 driveway culverts have more capacity than the
bounding earthen channel and therefore are governed by outlet control. The 2-8x6 MacArthur
culverts operate in inlet control and have approximately 1,050 cfs capacity with 1' (ft) of
freeboard to the lowest adjacent top of curb.
➢ Option 1, Box Culvert Enclosure — This scenario was analyzed using the storm drain modeling
software, StormCAD@ (Bentley Systems, Inc.). Conduit links were used to represent each unique
section (i.e. box shape, size, slope, number of barrels, etc...). Hydraulic grade lines were
calculated for the entire project reach, with headlosses at transition points.
➢ ConlSpan Channel with Existing Culverts — The existing culverts were analyzed using
CulvertMaster. The Con/Span segments between the existing culverts were analyzed with the
Woodridge Channe I Improvements — Concept Study (MacArthur to 750' west) *** t n
p
teague nail & perkins
BSH-Tool using downstream CulvertMaster headwater as the controlling tailwater. The 2-8x6
MBC and proposed 1-6'x6' RCB at MacArthur were calculated using CulvertMaster assuming one
(1) foot of freeboard to the approximate back of curb elevation of 454.0.
Improvement Alternatives
➢ Option 1: Box Culvert Enclosure (100 -YR Design) — This option entails constructing 750 LF of 2-
9x6 MBC, and 110 LF of 1-6x6 RCB. The 1-6x6 is needed for additional capacity at
MacArthur, and may be suitable for boring and jacking. The culvert system would be backfilled
to create relatively flat ground along Sand Lake Rd., making it suitable for a linear park.
The anticipated construction cost is $1,700,000 (rounded), including environmental mitigation. No
property acquisition is anticipated.
➢ Option 2: Con/Span Enclosure (100 -YR Design) — This option entails constructing 750 LF of
25'x6' Con/Span (bridge structure), and 110 LF of 1-6x6 RCB. The 1-6x6 is needed for
additional capacity at MacArthur, and may be suitable for boring and jacking. The Con/Span
system would be backfilled to create relatively flat ground along Sand Lake Rd., making it
suitable for a linear park.
The anticipated construction cost is $2,200,000, including environmental mitigation. No property
acquisition is anticipated.

Conclusion
The subject reach of Woodridge Channel is undersized and requires chronic maintenance. Each one of
the options presented above will address these concerns by: providing 100 -yr design capacity,
effectively eliminating the need for channel maintenance, and enhancing the aesthetic of the Sandy Lake
Rd. corridor. Option 1 (Box Culvert) is anticipated to provide a significant cost savings and possibly a
shorter construction time. The cost of Option 2 (Con/Span) is significantly higher, but could be reduced if
soil conditions permit less foundation work than anticipated. The Con/Span offers more room for
maintenance access and better aesthetic at the opening.

Re: Waters of the United States Delineation, Section 404 Permit Assessment, and Mitigation Assessment
Sandy Lake Road; City of Coppell, Dallas County, Texas
Dear Mr. Dykes,
Integrated Environmental Solutions, LLC. (IES) performed a survey to identify all water features that meet a
definition of a water of the United States on approximately 905 feet of channel that parallels Sandy Lake Road, at
the intersection of South MacArthur Boulevard in Coppell, Dallas County, Texas (Attachment A, Figure 1). This
delineation was conducted to ensure compliance with Section 401 and 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA), and
Executive Order 11990 (Protection of Wetlands) for the proposed development planning.
INTRODUCTION
Agencies that regulate impacts to the nation's water resources within Texas include the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS),
and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). Jurisdictional waters of the United States are
protected under guidelines outlined in Sections 401 and 404 of the CWA, in Executive Order 11990 (Protection of
Wetlands), and by the review process of the TCEQ. The USACE has the primary regulatory authority for enforcing
Section 404 requirements for waters of the United States, including wetlands.
The definition of waters of the United States, in 33 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 328.3, includes waters such
as intrastate lakes, rivers, streams (including intermittent streams), mudflats, wetlands, sloughs, wet meadows, or
natural ponds and all impoundments of waters otherwise defined as waters of the United States. Also included are
wetlands adjacent to waters (other than waters that are themselves wetlands). The term adjacent is defined as
bordering, contiguous, or neighboring. Jurisdictional wetlands are a category of waters of the United States and
have been defined by the USACE as areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a
frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of
vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions.
Waters of the United States are defined in 33 CFR 328.3 (a) as:
1. All waters which are currently used, or were used in the past, or maybe susceptible to use in interstate or
foreign commerce, including all waters which are subject to the ebb and flow of the tide;
2. All interstate waters including interstate wetlands;

3. All other waters such as intrastate lakes, rivers, streams (including intermittent streams), mudflats,
sandflats, wetlands, sloughs, prairie potholes, wet meadows, playa lakes, or natural ponds, the use,
degradation or destruction of which could affect interstate or foreign commerce including any such
waters:
i. Which are or could be used by interstate or foreign travelers for recreational or other purposes; or
ii. From which fish or shellfish are or could be taken and sold in interstate or foreign commerce; or
iii. Which are used or could be used for industrial purpose by industries in interstate commerce;
4. All impoundments of waters otherwise defined as waters of the United States under the definition;
5. Tributaries of waters identified in paragraphs (a)(1)-(4) of this section;
6. The territorial seas;
7. Wetlands adjacent to waters (other than waters that are themselves wetlands) identified in paragraphs 1-
6 above.
8. Waste treatment systems, including treatment ponds or lagoons designed to meet the requirements of
CWA (other than cooling ponds as defined in 40 CFR 123.11(m) which also meet the criteria of this
definition) are not waters of the United States.
On 05 June 2007, the USACE and the USEPA issued joint guidance on delineation of waters on the United States
based on the U.S. Supreme Court decisions in Rapanos and Carabell. Under this guidance, potential waters of the
United States have been classified as traditional navigable waters (TNW), relatively permanent waters (RPW) (i.e.,
having flow most of the year or at least seasonally), or non-RPWs. This guidance states that TNWs and RPWs and
contiguous or adjacent wetlands to these water features are waters of the United States. Wetlands that are
bordering, contiguous, or neighboring another water of the United States is considered adjacent. Additionally,
wetlands that are within the 100 -year floodplain of another water of the United States are also considered
adjacent. Non-RPWs, wetlands contiguous or adjacent to non-RPWs, and isolated wetlands must undergo a
"significant nexus" test on a case-by-case basis to determine the jurisdictional nature of these water features.
Under the "significant nexus" test a water feature must have substantial connection to a TNW by direct flow, or by
indirect biological, hydrologic, or chemical connection. Under the "significant nexus" test the USACE District
Engineer must submit the jurisdictional determination (JD) to the regional USEPA office, which makes the decision
whether to move the JD to Headquarters USACE to make the final determination.
The new guidance does not void the January 2001 decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in Solid Waste Agency of
Northern Cook County (SWANCC) v. USACE which disallowed regulation of isolated wetlands under the CWA
through the "Migratory Bird Rule." Previously, the USACE assumed jurisdiction over isolated waters of the United
States based on its 1986 preamble stating that migratory birds used these habitats. The "Migratory Bird Rule"
provided the nexus to interstate commerce and thus protection under the CWA. However, the new guidance does
require that the "significant nexus" test be performed in addition to an analysis of other potential interstate
commerce uses for isolated waters.
METHODOLOGY
Prior to conducting fieldwork, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic map (Attachment A, Figure 2), Soil
Survey of Dallas County, Texas, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Map
(FIRM) (Attachment A, Figure 4), and aerial photographs of the project site were studied to identify possible
waters of the United States and areas prone to wetland development. Mr. Rudi Reinecke and Mr. Ross Rogers of
IES conducted the field surveys for potential waters of the United States in accordance with the USACE procedures
on 18 February 2014.
Wetland delineations were performed on location using the methodology outlined in the 1987 Corps of Engineers
Wetland Delineation Manual and the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineer Wetland Delineation Manual:
Great Plains Region (Version 2.0, March 2010). The presence of a wetland is determined by the positive indication
of three criteria (i.e., hydrophytic vegetation, hydrology, and hydric soils). Potential jurisdictional boundaries for
Mr. Kyle Dykes Page 3
Sandy Lake Road Delineation
25 March 2014
other water resources (i.e., non -wetland) were delineated in the field at the ordinary high water mark (OHWM).
The 33 CFR 328.3(e) defines OHWM as the line on the shore/bank established by flowing and/or standing water,
marked by characteristics such as a clear, natural line impressed on the bank, erosion shelving, changes in the
character of soil, destruction of terrestrial vegetation, presence of litter and debris, or other appropriate means
that consider the characteristics of the surrounding areas.
Water feature boundaries were recorded using a Trimble GeoXT global positioning system (GPS) unit capable of
sub -meter accuracy. Photographs were taken at representative points across the survey corridor, which are
provided in Attachment B.
RESULTS
Literature Review
No water features are illustrated on the USGS topographic map (1997), however, there are "V" -shaped contours
indicating confined flow in the project vicinity. The Soil Survey of Dallas County, Texas illustrates a tributary within
the project site. The FEMA FIRM illustrates the project site within Zone X (areas of 1% annual chance flood with
average depths of less than 1 foot or with drainage areas less than 1 square mile) and Zone X (areas determine to
be outside the 500 -year floodplain) (Map Number 48113C0155J effective 23 August 2001). The FEMA FIRM does
not illustrate any water features within the project site.
The Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) digital soil survey data for Dallas County (Attachment A, Figure
3) mapped two soil series within the project site — Silawa fine sandy loam, 2 to 8 percent slopes, eroded and Trinity
clay, occasionally flooded. Trinity clay, when found within depressions, is listed on the Hydric Soils of Texas list
prepared by the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils (revision April 2012).
Site Survey
The project site was comprised of two habitat communities; urban riparian and maintained channel. The urban
riparian community was dominated by red mulberry (Morus rubra), black willow (Salix nigra) and cattails (Typha
latifolia) along the edge of the tributary. The slopes of the channel were comprised of cool season annuals, giant
ragweed (Ambrosia trifida), and Johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense). This vegetation extended from the limits of
the ordinary high water mark up the slope for approximately fifteen feet on either side of the channel before
transitioning to maintained grasses. The maintained channel flowed through two separate concrete drop
structures. Cattails and black willow were located along the sediment deposits within the concrete drop structures
in the maintained channel.
The immediate topography of the area was flat, with the overall topography sloping from west to east as the
landscape transitioned into the floodplain of the Elm Fork Trinity River. The tributary entered the project site
through a single concrete channel, flowing from west to east. The tributary paralleled Sand Lake Drive for
approximately 3,000 feet before crossing Sandy Lake Road and emptying into Denton Creek, a tributary of the Elm
Fork Trinity River. The delineated tributary within the project site is detailed below (Attachment A, Figure 5 and
Table 1).

Tributary 1 was a channelized drainage that displayed intermittent flow characteristics based on the degree of
incisement and amount of flow observed during the field inspection. It is IES' opinion that the flow in this tributary
is seasonal and would be classified as a RPW. Upstream from the project site, the tributary was a concrete channel
that provided drainage for storm water culverts from several surrounding residential neighborhoods. Within the
project site the tributary's width averaged eight feet. Immediately downstream of the project site Tributary 1
converged with Denton Creek, a tributary of the Elm Fork Trinity River. The Elm Fork Trinity River conveys water to
the West Fork Trinity River, a TNW. Given Tributary 1's indirect connection to a TNW it is IES' professional opinion
Mr. Kyle Dykes Page 4
Sandy Lake Road Delineation
25 March 2014
that this tributary and all of its channels would meet a definition of a water of the United States and therefore be
regulated under Section 404 of the CWA.
Compensatory Mitigation Cost Opinion
The USACE Fort Worth District has a Regional General Condition that, for projects with impacts exceeding 0.1 acre
or 300 linear feet of tributary impacts, compensatory mitigation will be required to ensure that the activity results
in minimal adverse effects to the aquatic environment. The USACE recently published the Fort Worth District
Guidance for performing compensatory mitigation on streams in the Stream Mitigation Method. In following this
guidance, the Fort Worth District requires that at least 50 percent of the impacted stream be mitigated utilizing a
mitigation bank that has conducted either in -stream or riparian buffer mitigation. The remaining 50 percent of the
impacted stream would be allowed to utilize the "legacy -style" mitigation banks. All new in -stream or riparian
buffer mitigation banks are credited and debited utilizing the Texas Rapid Assessment Method (TXRAM) versus the
"legacy -style" mitigation banks are based on standardized multipliers. There are multiple mitigation banks
available; however, the following multipliers and cost estimates per credit are being provided for Trinity River
Mitigation Bank (TRMB), a "legacy -style" mitigation bank, and Mill Branch Mitigation Bank (MBMB), a riparian -
buffer mitigation bank. These two banks are used here due to the project being located in their primary service
areas and advertised costs per credit.
TXRAM is a condition based assessment tool for evaluating streams and wetlands prepared by the USACE Fort
Worth Regulatory Branch for use in Texas in both Fort Worth and Tulsa Districts. The TXRAM modules were
developed to provide consistent methods for wetland and stream assessment and will be used for assessing the
condition of the water features. This standardized condition assessment of the water features was developed to
provide a tool that compares water features. TXRAM has many uses, but for the purpose of this project, it
documents the overall condition of the different Stream Reaches (Attachment A, Figure 6) which will then be used
to document the necessary compensatory mitigation for the proposed project impacts utilizing the Stream
Mitigation Method as published by the USACE in their CESWF-I3-MIT-1 Public Notice on 02 October 2013.
The TXRAM Streams Module was developed to gauge the integrity of a stream, assuming that stream condition is a
product of complex interactions among biological, chemical, and physical processes. TXRAM utilizes metrics based
on these interactions, as well as, visible physical and biological characteristics to provide an overall score of the
stream condition. The project site was divided into two Stream Assessment Reaches (SAR) based on overall
characteristics of the site. SAR A contained a trapezoidal channel that had some shrub scrub vegetation on slopes
of the riparian corridor and SAR B was a concrete lined section of the tributary. Specifically SAR A was identified as
a deeply incised channel with a natural substrate bed and bank. Overhanging vegetation with woody and leafy
debris was identified as part of the in -stream habitat, and an early successional riparian buffer was identified along
both banks of SAR A. Additionally SAR A displayed approximately 25 percent active bank erosion along both banks
of the tributary. SAR B was identified as a concrete channel with an artificial bed and bank. Neither in -stream
habitat nor riparian buffer were identified along SAR B. The artificially stabilized banks exhibited no erosion along
SAR B. The completed TXRAM Data Forms are provided in Attachment C, which documents all of the scoring
matrices.
Table 2 provides the cost opinion of the proposed compensatory mitigation for the complete enclosure of the
tributary. As stated previously, there are other mitigation options; however, there would be service area
multipliers and these mitigation banks do not publish their rates. As the project moves forward, an actual cost
estimate should be acquired to verify the prices and potentially have the mitigation banks compete for the project.

CONCLUSIONS
Delineation Summary
To summarize the delineation, one potentially jurisdictional water was identified and delineated within the Project
Site — Tributary 1. Tributary 1 was approximately 905 linear feet long within the project area and measured 0.24
acre below the OHWM. Based on the June 2007 guidance, it is IES' professional opinion that this feature does
meet the definition of a water of the United States as this is a tributary of a TNW and is considered a RPW. This
delineation is based on professional experience in the approved methodology, and from experience with the
USACE Fort Worth District regulatory biologists. However, this delineation does not constitute a jurisdictional
determination of waters of the United States. Only the USACE can make the final jurisdictional determination,
which can be based on the professional opinions presented in this report.
The project planning is to enclose the tributary within the project site to facilitate reduced maintenance and a
pocket park. Due to the length of the impacts, the project would require compensatory mitigation and following
the new USACE Fort Worth District Stream Mitigation Method of utilizing multiple mitigation bank types, the cost
opinion at the time this letter is dated, is approximately $165,440.00. There are multiple factors that affect the
cost estimates and therefore should be visited again during the Section 404 permitting process.
IES appreciates the opportunity to work with you and Teague, Nall and Perkins, Inc. on this project, and hope we
may be of assistance to you in the future. If you have any comments, questions, or concerns, please do not
hesitate to contact me or Rudi Reinecke at 972/562-7672 or (RRogers@intenvsol.com or
