SANFORD, FLORIDA 32771 / , \ \ \ " October 10, 1978 Mayor Troy Piland City of Winter Springs 102 N. Moss Road Winter Springs, FL 32707 Re: Winter Springs Unit II Swale Drainage Problem Dear Mayor Piland: In general, numerous areas along Oscelot Trail and Deer Run and to a very minor extent along Gator Lane and Elk Court have been experiencing a standing water and soggy swales over the past several years. We last reported to the City in November 1975 in regards to some suggested modifications to help improve some of these areas. e The main problem is not area drainage which the swales accomplish but how to dewater the swales after the storm runoff has past and groundwater keeps seeping into the swales. The alternatives that exist are: 1) Revert to closed drainage in terms of more drainage plpes, Miami gutters and curb inlets. 2) Raise all swales out of the wa~er table area to within 6"-12" of the roadway edge with sand, replace all drives with news aprons crossing the swale. by filling regrading and more shallow 3) Install underdrains under the bottom of the swales to lower the water table. 4) Minor grading, filling, redressing, clean out of silted pipes, raise depressed drives that are too low or replace with a culvert and drive crossing._ Of the above the first is probably too expensive and may not be in the best interest of the downstream drainage system because it would cause increased runoff without the benefits of grass swale treatment and flow retardants. Number two (2) would cost e less but it might not s'ol ve the groundwater problem in all cases CORPORATE OFFICE: 211 NORTH RACE STREET. URBANA, ILLINOIS 61801 · (217) 384-1400 OFFICES IN: FLORIDA. ILLINOIS. MISSISSIPPI. MISSOURI. TENNESSEE . .." ,...,. ~ . . Mayor Troy Pilan~ Page 2 ,., October 10, 1978 e e and would not provide the required swale flow capacity at certain swale locations. Number three (3) would be very expensive and would probably not be needed in all cases. ~umber four (4) would in itself not be drastic enough to eliminate most of the problems and it could be a reoccurring operation as our November 1975 letter stated. We, therefore, recommend a combination of 2, 3 &4. Specifically, we would initially propose that underdrains be placed on the north side of Oscelot Trail from about lot #47-48 to lot #88-89 and on Deer Run from lot 66 south side to the north side of lot 54. This will result in a general lowering of the groundwater table next to the streets in the predominant flow areas. Based on the underdrain results the swale filling, regrading and dressing work could be conducted on the other side of the streets. Some minor dressing and grading in less critical areas could be done at the onset. There are a couple of manholes on the north side of Oscelot Trail which could be converted into swale inlets, thus picking up some flow prior to the intersection inlets. This could be done in conjunction with the underdrain installation work. We estimate that the total program could cost approximately $37,500. if it is necessary to redress and fill all the swales e opposite the side that is underdrained. The underdrain type work and the regrading and fill work should be contracted out to experienced pipe drews because of its critical nature. Dress up, driveway repair, pipe cleanout and culvert installation work could probably be handled by City forces depending on their work load. The contractor, however, should finish the areas he starts including dress up and regrassing. We await further direction as to the procedures you wish to follow ln implementation of this program.
