Introduction
 
 As
part
of
the
overall
Ever
Vail
project,
the
South
Frontage
Road
will
be
relocated
to
the
north
immediately
 adjacent
and
parallel
to
the
eastbound
lanes
of
I‐70.

This
realignment
will
require
the
construction
of
a
bridge
 across
Red
Sandstone
Creek
directly
south
of
the
I‐70
right‐of‐way.
As
a
result,
a
Town
of
Vail
Floodplain
 Modification
Permit
is
required
for
the
work
that
is
needed
to
complete
the
road
relocation.


 
 The
existing
South
Frontage
Road
crosses
Red
Sandstone
Creek
approximately
350
feet
south
of
the
proposed
 location
for
the
new
crossing
as
shown
in
Figure

Permit 7 IV.
Floodplain
Modification
Review
Criteria
 
 Chapter
21,
Hazard
Regulations,
Vail
Town
Code
provides
the
requirements
and
review
criteria
for
a
flood
plain
 modification
permit.


The
purpose
of
the
flood
hazard
regulations
is
as
follows:
 
 To
promote
public
health,
safety
and
general
welfare
and
to
minimize
public
and
private
losses
due
to
flood
 conditions
in
specific
areas
by
provisions
designed
to:
 1. Protect
human
life
and
health;
 2. Minimize
expenditure
of
public
money
for
costly
flood
control
projects;
 3. Minimize
the
need
for
rescue
and
relief
efforts
associated
with
flooding
and
generally
undertaken
at
 the
expense
of
the
general
public;
 4. Minimize
prolonged
business
interruptions;
 5. Minimize
damage
to
public
facilities
and
utilities
such
as
water
and
gas
mains,
electric,
telephone
 and
sewer
lines,
streets
and
bridges
located
in
floodplains;
 6. Help
maintain
a
stable
tax
base
by
providing
for
the
sound
use
and
development
of
flood
prone
 areas
in
such
a
manner
as
to
minimize
future
flood
blight
areas;
 7. Ensure
that
potential
buyers
are
notified
that
property
is
in
a
flood
area;
 8. Ensure
that
those
who
occupy
the
floodplain
assume
the
responsibility
for
their
actions;
 9. Protect
the
natural
areas
required
to
convey
flood
flows
and
retain
flow
characteristics;
and
 10. Obtain
and
maintain
the
benefits
to
the
community
of
participating
in
the
national
flood
insurance
 program.
 
 All
floodplain
modification
permits
are
reviewed
by
the
Floodplain
administrator
and
the
Planning
and
 Environmental
Commission
subject
to
the
following
criteria:
 A.






The
effects
upon
the
efficiency
or
capacity
of
the
floodway.

 Our
Analysis:

 There
is
no
designated
floodway
for
Red
Sandstone
Creek.
The
impacts
to
the
floodplain
boundary
 were
evaluated
using
HEC‐RAS
and
are
discussed
in
the
attached
engineering
hydraulic
analysis.

 B.





The
effects
upon
persons
and
personal
property
upstream,
downstream
and
in
the
immediate
 vicinity.
 Our
Analysis:
 There
will
be
no
adverse
effect
upon
persons
or
personal
property
upstream,
downstream
or
in
the
 immediate
vicinity.
All
new
construction
will
be
outside
of
the
newly
proposed
floodplain.
The
water
 surface
elevations
or
velocities
do
not
increase
downstream
or
upstream
of
the
project
area
and
 therefore
will
not
adversely
impact
persons
or
properties
outside
of
the
project
area.

 C.
The
effects
upon
the
100‐year
flood
profile
and
channel
stability.


 
Our
Analysis:
 The
impacts
to
the
floodplain
boundary
were
evaluated
using
HEC‐RAS.
HEC‐RAS
results
show
less
than
 a
foot
increase
in
water
surface
elevation
profiles
downstream
of
the
project
area.
The
floodplain
 decreases
in
width
downstream
of
the
new
South
Frontage
Road
Bridge,
and
shortly
downstream
 returns
to
its
existing
configuration.
The
constriction
of
the
floodplain
is
due
to
the
channelization
of
 flow
through
the
arched
culvert.
 
 FHWA
design
specifications
were
used
to
create
the
design
details
to
protect
the
bridge
and
prevent
 scour
of
the
channel
during
high
flow
events.

A
riprap
energy
dissipation
basin
has
been
designed
to
 force
a
hydraulic
jump
in
order
to
dissipate
energy
from
flow
out
of
the
I‐70
CMP.
The
channel
bed
will
 Ever
Vail
Flood
Plain
Modification
Permit 8 be
lined
with
grouted
riprap
with
a
median
diameter
of
12
inches.
A
drop
structure
and
scour
pool
will
 be
placed
just
downstream
of
the
bridge
to
limit
the
downstream
impact
and
limit
further
impacts
to
 Red
Sandstone
Creek.
The
area
to
the
west
of
the
creek,
just
downstream
of
the
bridge,
will
be
graded
 to
create
a
gradual
slope
from
the
southern
edge
of
the
retaining
wall
down
to
the
creek.
The
area
to
 the
east
has
a
steep
bank
and
will
not
be
modified.

 
 The
attached
engineering
hydraulic
analysis
describes
the
impacts
to
the
floodplain
in
depth
and
 includes
design
drawings
with
channel
design
details.
 D.





The
effects
upon
any
tributaries
to
the
main
stream,
drainage
ditches
and
any
other
drainage
 facilities
or
systems.
 Our
Analysis:
 This
design
will
not
impact
any
tributaries
to
the
main
stream,
drainage
ditches
or
any
other
drainage
 facilities.

A
storm
drain
will
collect
water
from
the
east
side
of
the
new
South
Frontage
Road
and
 discharge
to
Red
Sandstone
Creek
just
downstream
of
the
new
bridge.
Storm
water
will
go
through
a
 stormwater
treatment
system
(Vortechs
Model
16000)
before
discharging
to
Red
Sandstone
Creek.
The
 calculated
discharge
rate
during
a
100‐yr
flow
event
is
24
cfs.

 E. The
danger
to
life
and
property
due
to
flooding
or
erosion
damage;

 Our
Analysis:
 There
will
be
no
increase
in
the
danger
to
life
or
property
due
to
flooding
or
erosion
damage
associated
 with
the
proposed
project.
There
are
no
structures
within
the
proposed
floodplain.
There
should
be
 little
or
no
erosion
around
the
bridge
since
the
channel
will
be
armored
to
prevent
scour
during
the
 500‐yr
flood
event.
The
downstream
channel
will
be
armored
with
loose
river
cobble
with
a
median
 diameter
of
6
inches,
which
is
the
estimated
median
diameter
of
the
existing
river
cobble
in
this
reach.
 F. The
susceptibility
of
the
proposed
improvement
and
its
contents
to
flood
damage
and
the
effect
of
 such
damage
on
the
individual
owner;

 Our
Analysis:
 The
channel
below
the
bridge
will
be
armored
to
protect
the
foundation
from
scour
during
a
500‐yr
 flow
event.
The
bridge
footers
will
be
protected
from
downstream
erosion
by
a
concrete
cutoff
wall
 that
is
located
at
the
downstream
end
of
the
bridge.
Design
drawings
are
included
as
an
exhibit
to
the
 attached
engineering
hydraulic
analysis
 G. The
danger
that
materials
may
be
swept
onto
other
lands
to
the
injury
of
others;
 Our
Analysis:
 The
I‐70
CMP
restricts
much
of
the
debris
from
the
headwaters.
There
is
some
debris
at
the
site
that
 will
be
removed,
but,
for
the
most
part,
the
amount
of
debris
will
remain
the
same.
In
addition,
there
 are
no
other
landowners
along
Red
Sandstone
Creek.
Therefore
the
probability
of
a
downstream
 landowner
being
impacted
by
debris
along
Red
Sandstone
Creek
is
unlikely.
 H. The
compatibility
of
the
proposed
use
with
existing
and
anticipated
development;

 Our
Analysis:
 The
land
adjacent
to
Red
Sandstone
Creek
Floodplain
is
currently
zoned

 Arterial
Business
District
to
the
west
and
Lionshead
Mixed
Use
–
2
to
the
east
of
the
creek.
The
 proposed
zoning
for
the
entire
site
is
Lionshead
Mixed
Use
–
2.


The
relocation
of
the
South
Frontage
 Road
consolidates
the
impacts
to
the
creek
(both
existing
and
proposed)
to
one
area,
allowing
for
the
 remainder
of
the
creek
(downstream
to
Gore
Creek)
to
be
improved
and
restored,
and
to
create
a
 community
amenity.

A
complete
analysis
of
the
anticipated
development
of
Ever
Vail
is
included
in
this
 submittal
package.
 Ever
Vail
Flood
Plain
Modification
Permit 9 I. The
safety
of
access
to
the
property
in
times
of
flood
for
ordinary
and
emergency
vehicles;

 Our
Analysis:
 None
of
these
bridges
will
be
flooded.
Emergency
Vehicles
can
access
the
east
side
of
property
utilizing
 the
South
Frontage
Road
and
Forest
Road.

Emergency
Vehicles
can
access
the
west
side
of
property
 utilizing
the
South
Frontage
Road.

 J. The
costs
of
providing
governmental
services
during
and
after
flood
conditions
including
maintenance
 and
repair
of
streets
and
bridges,
and
public
utilities
and
facilities
such
as
sewer,
gas,
electrical
and
 water
systems;

 Our
Analysis:
 These
costs
will
remain
the
same.

There
are
no
new
utilities
located
within
the
existing
or
proposed
 floodplain
boundary.
All
new
utilities
will
be
located
above
the
floodplain
and
will
be
accessed
via
the
 new
South
Frontage
Road
Bridge.
 K. The
expected
heights,
velocity,
duration,
rate
of
rise
and
sediment
transport
of
the
floodwaters
and
 the
effects
of
wave
action,
if
applicable,
expected
at
the
site;

 Our
Analysis:
 The
impacts
to
the
floodplain
boundary
were
evaluated
using
HEC‐RAS.
HEC‐RAS
results
show
less
than
 a
foot
increase
in
water
surface
elevation
profiles
downstream
of
the
project
area.
The
floodplain
 boundary
decreases
in
width
a
short
distance
downstream
of
the
new
South
Frontage
Road
Bridge
and
 shortly
downstream
returns
to
its
existing
configuration.
The
attached
Engineering
Hydraulic
Analysis
 describes
the
impacts
to
the
floodplain
in
depth.
 L. The
effect
the
proposed
changes
will
have
any
adverse
environmental
effect
on
the
watercourse
 including,
without
limitation,
erosion
of
stream
banks
and
stream
side
trees
and
vegetation
and
 wildlife
habitat;

 Our
Analysis:
 The
realignment
of
Red
Sandstone
Creek
to
accommodate
the
new
South
Frontage
Road
Bridge
will
 have
a
small
environmental
effect
on
the
watercourse
under
the
new
bridge.
The
Red
Sandstone
Creek
 stream
ecosystem
in
the
vicinity
of
the
Site
has
been
diminished
due
to
channelized
stream
conditions
 and
steep
banks
caused
by
fill
material
from
neighboring
parcels
and
the
I‐70
CMP.

The
stream
bottom
 consists
of
boulders
and
cobbles
and
provides
limited
habitat
for
several
species
of
fish.

According
to
 the
CDOW,
the
following
species
of
fish
could
be
found
in
Red
Sandstone
Creek
below
the
I‐70
culvert:
 brown
trout,
rainbow
trout,
brook
trout,
cutthroat
trout,
and
sculpin
(Andree,
pers.
comm.).

However,
 resting
and
spawning
areas
for
fish
are
extremely
limited
in
this
section
of
Red
Sandstone
Creek,
 especially
during
spring
runoff
and
critical
low
flow
periods
in
the
late
summer,
fall,
and
winter.


 
 There
are
wetlands
adjacent
to
Red
Sandstone
Creek;
however,
infringement
from
development
has
 degraded
riparian
habitat,
which
is
limited
to
a
narrow
band
along
the
stream
banks.

All
wetland
 impacts
will
be
mitigated
as
required
by
the
Army
Corps
of
Engineers.

A
wetland
mitigation
plan
and
a
 404
Permitting
will
be
completed
in
2011.
 
 The
proposed
floodplain
will
not

Our
Analysis:

 A
variety
of
alternatives
were
evaluated
to
select
an
optimal
Creek
alignment
and
set
of
structures
that
 would
minimize
floodplain
impacts
downstream
of
the
proposed
South
Frontage
Road
Bridge
crossing
 Red
Sandstone
Creek.



 
 In
order
to
span
the
existing
floodplain,
a
120’
spanned
bridge
would
be
required
to
traverse
the
 floodplain.
This
alternative
was
not
chosen
due
to
the
associated
cost
and
aesthetic
considerations.
 Various
bridge
spans
were
evaluated
to
determine
the
most
appropriate
size
and
style
available
that
 will
appropriately
convey
and
manage
flow
through
the
new
structure.


A
single
span
bridge
with
42‐ foot
clear
opening
was
selected
as
the
most
appropriate,
cost
effective
and
aesthetic
alternative.


 
 The
span
of
the
proposed
bridge
was
developed
using
HEC‐RAS
to
model
various
stream
geometries
 and
bridge
span
options
to
identify
a
bridge
span
length
that
would
not
significantly
impact
water
 surface
elevations
of
the
Creek
downstream.
Once
this
span
length
was
determined
the
remaining
 design
characteristics
were
determined
through
an
iterative
process
using
Federal
Highway
 Administration
(FHWA)
standards
and
HEC
RAS
modeling.
The
primary
design
parameters
were
based
 on
the
following
objectives:

maintain
channel
stability
by
armoring
the
new
channel
under
the
bridge
 to
prevent
scour
during
a
500‐yr
flood
event,
include
channel
geometry
that
is
similar
to
the
existing
 stream
geometry,
and
provide
sufficient
channel
conveyance
capacity
to
minimize
changes
to
the
 existing
100‐year
water
surface
elevation.
 N. The
availability
of
alternative
locations,
not
subject
to
flooding
or
erosion
damage,
for
the
proposed
 use;

 Our
Analysis:
 There
is
no
alternative
location
because
of
the
necessity
to
cross
Red
Sandstone
Creek.

 O. The
relationship
of
the
proposed
use
to
the
comprehensive
plan
for
that
area.

 Our
Analysis:
 The
relocated
South
Frontage
Road
is
identified
as
a
possibility
in
the
Lionshead
Redevelopment
Master
 Plan
for
the
West
Lionshead
area.
The
existing
alignment
includes
a
small
radius
curve
in
the
road,
 creating
conditions
that
are
unsafe
in
that
area.

The
Lionshead
Redevelopment
Master
Plan
 contemplated
a
South
Frontage
Road
alignment
which
parallels
I‐70,
but
returns
to
the
original
location
 at
Red
Sandstone
Creek.

This
alignment
was
not
acceptable
to
CDOT,
as
it
maintains
an
unsafe
bend
in
 the
road.

CDOT
has
indicated
that
the
only
acceptable
alignment
parallels
I‐70
for
the
entire
distance
 of
the
West
Lionshead
area,
joining
back
up
to
the
existing
alignment
just
west
of
the
existing
Glen
 Lyon
Office
Building.

In
addition,
the
alignment
contemplated
by
the
Lionshead
Redevelopment
 Master
Plan
would
have
required
significant
disturbance
to
Red
Sandstone
Creek,
because
the
 proposed
bridge
would
have
run
parallel
to
the
creek
for
a
distance.

In
conclusion,
the
alignment
of
the
 South
Frontage
Road
and
the
floodplain
modification
required
are
in
compliance
with
the
Lionshead
 Redevelopment
Master
Plan
and
associated
Transportation
Master
Plans
for
the
traffic
network
in
the
 Town
of
Vail.

Sato and Associates Attachment B: Peak Land Consultants Survey, October 8, 2008 Floodplain Modification Permit – Engineering Floodplain Analysis South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek 4 AMEC Earth & Environmental 1.0 Introduction Vail Resorts Development Company, in conjunction with the Town of Vail is planning on moving the I-70 South Frontage Road in West Lionshead to the north, immediately adjacent and parallel to the eastbound lanes of I-70. This realignment will require the construction of a bridge across Red Sandstone Creek, directly south of the I-70 right-of- way. The purpose of this report is to address and evaluate the hydraulic impacts associated with moving the South Frontage Road. The proposed project for the new South Frontage Road Bridge will require realignment and reconstruction of the Creek channel from the I-70 CMP discharge location to a location approximately 185 feet downstream. The proposed bridge will be constructed using a Con/Span arch with a clear span of 42-feet. The Con/Span arch is the structural component of the bridge that will span the creek. The bridge will be 99.35 feet wide. The span of the proposed bridge was developed using HEC-RAS to model various stream geometries and bridge span options to identify a bridge span length that would not significantly impact water surface elevations or velocities of the Creek downstream of the proposed bridge. Once this span length was determined the remaining design characteristics were determined through an iterative process using Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) standards and HEC-RAS modeling. The primary design parameters were based on the following objectives: maintain channel stability by armoring the new channel under the bridge to prevent scour during a 500-yr flood event, include channel geometry that is similar to the existing stream geometry, and provide sufficient channel conveyance capacity to minimize changes to the existing 100-year water surface elevations downstream. The project area discussed in this report starts at the discharge location for the existing I-70 CMP and ends 185-ft downstream, where the new channel meets grade with the existing channel morphology. 2.0 Floodplain Engineering Analysis The intent of the engineering analysis is to review the existing Flood Insurance Study (FIS) floodplain boundary, define a new effective Base Flood Elevation (BFE) using more recent topographic data, and define a new BFE for the proposed bridge design. The HEC-RAS files used to model the existing floodplain were acquired from FEMA and modified to represent more recent and accurate survey data. The original FEMA HEC- RAS model will be referred to as the FIS HEC-RAS model. The model used to model the new effective BFE will be referred to as the effective HEC-RAS model. The existing Flood Insurance study (08037CV000A) for Red Sandstone Creek was adopted by FEMA on December 4, 2007. The flood hazard area is depicted on Eagle County, Colorado FIRM Panel 0837C046D as shown in Figure 2 (and included in Attachment A). The existing floodplain zone is defined as Zone AE floodplain. The existing FEMA FIRM represents modeling of Red Sandstone Creek from the confluence with Gore Creek to approximately 2,900 feet upstream, just past Potato Patch Drive. Floodplain Modification Permit – Engineering Floodplain Analysis South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek 5 AMEC Earth & Environmental Figure 1. Existing FIRM panel for Red Sandstone Creek 2.1 Evaluation of the Existing Floodplain Boundary and development of a New Effective HEC-RAS Model The cross section geometry modeled in FIS HEC-RAS model was examined for accuracy and compared to more recent survey data to verify the precision of the geometry data in the vicinity of the project. Upon comparing the FIS cross sections to more recent topographic data, discrepancies were revealed. Because of the numerous discrepancies between the FIS HEC-RAS geometric data and existing topographic data, Vail Resorts and Development Company (VRDC) contracted Peak Land Consultants to resurvey the cross sections at the same locations along Red Sandstone Creek. Cross sections 406.5, 406, 405.5, 405.3, 405, 404, 403, 402.5, 402, and to 401.5 were surveyed on October 7, 2008. Three new cross sections were also surveyed at this time. This was done to provide more detail for the new effective floodplain boundary analysis. Two of the new cross sections are located between cross Floodplain Modification Permit – Engineering Floodplain Analysis South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek 6 AMEC Earth & Environmental sections 404 and 405. These new cross section identification numbers are 404.5 and 404.25. The third cross section is located just downstream of cross section 405.5, located just downstream of the I-70 CMP discharge. This location was chosen because the cross section ID 405.5 intersects the culvert wing walls, and thus inaccurately represents the stream geometry downstream of the I-70 CMP discharge. The cross section locations are shown in plan view in Exhibit A, and a hard copy of the design drawings are located in Attachment A. 2.1.1 Mannings n-Values Manning’s n-values for the main channel and overbank portions of Red Sandstone Creek were not changed for the new effective model. The Manning’s n-values used are 0.04 and 0.05 for the main channel and the overbank areas, respectively. This is congruent with field observations and aerial photographs. Red Sandstone creek is generally narrow and the streambed consists of cobbles and small boulders and the floodplain is moderately vegetated. 2.1.2 Hydrology The hydrology used in the existing FIS model was adopted and used in the new effective model. 2.1.3 Boundary Conditions – Flow Regime Boundary conditions were changed for the new effective baseline model. The existing FEMA model used a downstream boundary condition of 0.04 feet/feet. The model was run using the sub-critical flow regime. The downstream boundary condition for the new effective model was set at normal depth, based on the average channel slope of 0.05 feet/feet. 2.1.4 Culvert and Bridge Data Entrance and exit loss coefficients were not changed at stream cross sections for the new effective baseline model. Entrance and loss coefficients are 0.1 and 0.3 at stream cross sections. Entrance and loss coefficients at the culverts are 0.5 and 1.0, respectively. The Entrance and loss coefficients at the existing South Frontage Road (Section ID’s 402.5 and 402) have been changed to 0.3 and 0.5, respectively. 2.1.5 Cross Sectional Geometry The new cross sectional data from the topographic survey was entered into the new effective HEC-RAS model. The most notable changes to the geometry data are listed below. 1. Sections 406.5 and 406 have updated horizontal geometry to show flow in the horizontal plane, rather than rising above I-70. The FIS HEC-RAS model showed flow overtopping I-70. 2. The I-70 CMP invert elevation on the north side of I-70 has been changed to 8120.3 feet. The FIS CMP invert elevation value was 8124.3 feet. 3. The CMP invert elevation on the south side of I-70 was changed to 8107.90 feet. The FIS CMP invert elevation measurement was 8105.00 feet. 4. Cross section 405.3 was added to represent the actual stream geometry downstream of the I-70 CMP. The new cross section is located 5 feet Floodplain Modification Permit – Engineering Floodplain Analysis South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek 7 AMEC Earth & Environmental downstream of cross section ID 405.5 This new location was added because the existing section (ID 405.5) shows the wing walls of the CMP, and misrepresents the general existing channel geometry in that reach. 5. Cross sections 404.5 and 405.25 were added to provide more floodplain elevation data downstream of the new location for the South Frontage Road Bridge. 6. The CMP diameter has been changed to 7 ft. The culvert diameter in the FIS HEC-RAS model was 6 ft. 2.2 New Effective HEC-RAS Modeling Results Summary The new effective HEC-RAS model was run using geometry data created from the most recent survey. Model results in tabular format for the new effective model are presented in Exhibit B.

Floodplain Modification Permit – Engineering Floodplain Analysis South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek 8 AMEC Earth & Environmental The water surface elevations and velocities changed at various cross section locations. The most notable changes are: 1. The water surface elevations at section ID’s 406 and 406.5 (north of I-70) decrease in elevation by approximately 4 feet. This is most likely due to the increased representation width of the floodplain at the cross sections. The existing FIS model truncated the sections and therefore there was no representation of flow in the horizontal plane 2. Section ID 405.5 shows a higher water surface elevation in the new effective model. This is most likely a result of the FIS model not representing the wing walls, while the new effective geometry represents the wing walls, and the immediate downstream stream morphology. 3. The water surface elevation at section ID 405 is lower in the new effective model. This is mostly likely a result of more detailed geometry that shows a more incised channel. 2.3 Development of a HEC-RAS model for the Proposed Conditions The proposed bridge will be constructed using a Con/Span arch with a clear span of 42- feet. The Con/Span arch is the structural component of the bridge that will span Red Sandstone Creek. The bridge will be 99.35 feet wide. The I-70 CMP will be shortened by 10 feet. Each end of the bridge will require a concrete headwall. The upstream headwall will be located adjacent to the east bound lanes of I-70 and will retain the adjacent slope. In addition, this will provide an opening for the existing I-70 CMP to penetrate the wall. The CMP will extend 1.9 feet beyond the edge of the upstream headwall to prevent seepage behind the retaining wall. The Con/Span arch will have 10 additional inches of vertical clearance over the I-70 CMP. In order to convey flow through the Con/Span arch, the channel bed for Red Sandstone Creek is being adjusted to flow through the bridge. FHWA design specifications were used to create the design details to protect the bridge and prevent scour of the channel during high flow events. The channel configuration is based on the need to protect the bridge during high flow events and effectively manage flow during low flow events. A riprap energy dissipation basin has been designed to prevent scour and dissipate energy from flow out of the I-70 CMP. The channel bed will be lined with grouted riprap with a median diameter of 18 inches. A drop structure and scour pool will be placed just downstream of the bridge to minimize the longitudinal grade and limit further downstream impacts to Red Sandstone Creek. Detail design computations are included in the CDOT Hydraulic Report. The area to the west of the creek, just downstream of the bridge, will be graded to create a gradual slope from the southern edge of the bridge face down to the creek. Note that the existing South Frontage Road Bridge will not be removed as part of this project. The area will continue to be accessed via the existing South Frontage Road until the Ever Vail development is at or near completion. Design drawings for the proposed project are located in Exhibit C. Floodplain Modification Permit – Engineering Floodplain Analysis South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek 9 AMEC Earth & Environmental The new effective HEC-RAS model was modified to reflect the new South Frontage Road Bridge location, the realignment of Red Sandstone Creek, and the associated downstream grading changes. A project boundary has been defined by identifying the cross sections where the water surface elevations and velocities have not been impacted by the proposed changes, i.e. the water surface elevation profiles match existing. The project boundaries are cross sections 407 and 402. Cross section ID 407 is located 3 cross sections and 211 feet upstream of the I-70 CMP inlet. Cross section ID 402 is located immediately downstream of the existing frontage road bridge. The water surface elevations and velocities return to existing values at or before these project boundary sections. A new grading plan was created to represent the proposed changes associated with the new South Frontage Road Bridge. The new grading plan was used to create a 3- dimensional surface and cross sections using RiverTools, a program extension to Civil 3D. This program creates cross sections in user specified locations and allows the user to export the geometry into HEC-RAS, as an .sdf file. These cross sections are labeled in blue in Exhibit A. This data was then combined with the new effective HEC-RAS model to compute the impacts to the water surface elevations within the proposed project area. A summary of the primary design changes incorporated into the proposed HEC-RAS model and associated geometry are listed below. 1. The downstream end of the I-70 CMP has been cut back 10 ft. The culvert will now discharge directly into the 42 ft Con/Span arch. The new culvert invert elevation will be 8108.30 feet. 2. All cross-sectional data between the I-70 CMP and the southern edge of bridge have been replaced with new geometry and numbered accordingly. This geometry represents the new riprap basin and the new stream geometry. Note that the existing HEC-RAS sections were not always perpendicular to the flow line. The geometry data used for the proposed conditions model uses cross sections that are perpendicular to the flow line. For this reason it is difficult to directly compare before and after water surface elevations based on cross section ID’s and location alone. When a cross section line from the proposed model was crossing a cross section line from the new effective model it was given a section ID value 0.01 high or lower. If the proposed cross section centerline was above the existing section line then the value was higher and vice versa. For comparison purposes the water surface elevation for the proposed conditions was interpolated based on the plan view of floodplain boundary. Refer to Exhibit A for further clarification. 3. The width of the proposed bridge is 99.35-ft. For modeling purposes the bridge was shorted to 49 feet long and placed downstream of the I-70 CMP stilling basin. This was done so that the stilling basin could be represented in the hydraulic model. HEC-RAS will not allow the modeler to enter a bridge and details for a stilling basin simultaneously. Note the upstream section of the bridge was modeled by creating stream geometry to represent the walls of the bridge. 4. New cross sections were added downstream of the proposed bridge to represent the drop structure, scour pool, and grading downstream of the bridge. Floodplain Modification Permit – Engineering Floodplain Analysis South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek 10 AMEC Earth & Environmental The hydraulic attributes are the same as those used in the new effective model. The following assumptions were used:  The Manning’s n value used to model the reach through the bridge is 0.03. The remaining Manning’s n values were consistently 0.04 and 0.05 throughout the model, as used in the existing HEC RAS model. The grouted riprap will be placed below the bridge so that it is protruding from the surface in order to provide for increased roughness.  Flow regime was modeled as subcritical when modeling the 100-yr water surface elevations. Note that the flow becomes supercritical at various points due to the steep grade and drop structures, but FEMA requires the 100-yr floodplain boundary be calculated assuming subcritical flow. A mixed flow regime was used to determine the depth of scour during a 500-yr flood event at the proposed bridge structure.  The downstream boundary condition is the average channel slope of 0.05 feet/feet.  Entrance and loss coefficients are 0.1 and 0.3 at stream cross sections. The Entrance and loss coefficients at the existing South Frontage Road (Section ID’s 402.5 and 402) are 0.3 and 0.5. Entrance and loss coefficients for the new bridge (405.3. and 405.15) are also 0.3 and 0.5. Entrance and loss coefficients at the culverts are 0.5 and 1.0, respectively. 2.4 Proposed Conditions – HEC-RAS Modeling Results Summary The proposed HEC-RAS model was run with the new input data to determine the water surface elevations and velocities along Red Sandstone Creek under the proposed conditions. The HEC-RAS model results indicate that the impacts to the 100-yr water surface elevations are relatively are less than a foot outside of the structures. In addition, the floodplain width decreases in width due to the channelization of Red Sandstone Creek. Table 2 summarizes the results during a 100-yr flow event at key design locations. Note it is important to view this table in conjunction with Exhibit A to see the physical representation of the impacts to the floodplain boundary. The complete tabular results from the HEC-RAS model for the proposed conditions are shown in Exhibit D. HEC-RAS model sections with the 100-yr water surface elevations for the proposed geometry are shown in Exhibit E. The FIS floodplain boundary, the proposed new effective floodplain boundary, and the proposed floodplain boundary are shown in Exhibit A. Proposed vs. new effective ground and 100-yr water surface elevations are shown in Figure 3.

Cross Section IDs in italics indicated a cross section value in the proposed conditions model. The cross section ID has been given a new value because it crosses the existing cross section, but is slightly skewed from the existing conditions. This was done because the new cross section had to be adjust to run perpendicular to the flow line.

Proposed vs. Existing Ground Elevations and Water Surface Elevations during a 100-yr Flood Event. 3.0 Conclusions The floodplain analysis evaluated the existing adopted Flood Insurance Study (FIS) floodplain boundary and created a new effective baseline model using more recent and accurate survey data. The new effective baseline model was then used as the baseline model from which to create a new HEC-RAS model to represent the proposed design. This model shows a minimal increase in water surface elevation downstream of the project area. The floodplain narrows just downstream of the new South Frontage Road Bridge, and shortly downstream returns to its existing configuration. The water surface elevation profiles for the proposed conditions match the water surface elevation profiles of the new effective model at cross sections 407 and 402.5. FEMA requires that a Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLMOR) be submitted for review if the there has been a detailed hydrologic and hydraulic analysis for which the Base (1-percnet-annual-chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs) have been specified. If the project area is within a floodplain boundary, but not designated as a regulatory floodway, then any changes that would result in more than a 1.0-foot increase in the BFE will require a CLMOR. Red Sandstone Creek has a designated floodplain, but is not in a regulatory floodway. Although the increases to the BFE’s downstream of the proposed bridge are less than 1.0 foot, the increases to the BFE’s within the proposed Con/Span arch are greater than 1.0 foot. Therefore, a CLMOR will need to be submitted to FEMA F l o o d p l a i n Mo d i f i c a t i o n Pe r m i t — E n g i n e e r i n g F l o o d p l a i n A n a l y s i s So u t h F r o n t a g e R o a d Br i d g e at R e d S a n d s t o n e C r e e k 14 to ve r i f y t h a t th e p r o p o s e d pr o j e c t m e e t s th e mi n i m u m fl o o d p l a i n m a n a g e m e n t cr i t e r i a of th e Na t i o n a l Fl o o d I n s u r a n c e P r o g r a m (N F I P ) an d , if so , w h a t re v i s i o n s wi l l be m a d e to th e ef f e c t i v e NF I P m a p fo r a co m m u n i t y if th e pr o j e c t is c o m p l e t e d a s p r o p o s e d . 4. 0 E n g i n e e r i n g S t a t e m e n t u n d e r th e di r e c t i o n of : *T h i s P.
