III. Rainfall-Runoff RelationshipsA. Time of ConcentrationB. Rational Equationexample problem The drainage basin that ultimately flows past the JMU football stadium is dominated by an industrial park with flat roofed buildings, parking lots, shopping malls, and very little open area. The drainage basin has an area of 90 acres. Find the peak discharge during a storm that has a 25 year flood return interval.
