flow and may become hazardous. The maximum encroachment depth is outlined in the table below:
Road Encroachment
Road Ciassification Minor Ma'or
Desi n Storm Mex Encroachment Desi n Storm Max Encroachmerit over crown

system.
B. Open Channel qesign Principles.
7 . Grass-lined open channels conveying less than 50 cfs may reduce the minimum 1 .0-Toot freeboard requirement to the freebbard required to convey 1 .33 tlmes the
100-year design flow. The reduced freeboard may only occur if a 1 .0-foot minimum freeboard is not physicalty possible and a variance request is submitted.
Remainder of Section - No change.
