INTRODUCTION
The City of Orono has requested this report to detemine the best nethod
of handling the stons water runoff from a small watershed along Casco Point
Road. During construction of a new house at 3061 Casco Point Roadt one of two
existing outlet pipes were removed. The purpose of this study Is to determine
the else of the replacement outlet pipe.
The existing outlet pipe at 30SS Casco Point Road is not adequate to
handle a significant portion of the runoff. The pipe runs under the existing
hone and could not be repaired if a problem were to occur. Ve did not elect
to consider the capacity of this pipe when determining the sixe of the new
outlet pipe.
The drainage area is landlocked with no safe overflow drainageway. The
water will flow into the garage at 30S5 Casco Point Road before reaching a
natural overflow.

DISCUSSION
The drainage area for this watershed is approximately 3.25 acres as shown
on Figure 1. The topography is rolling and high rates of runoff would be
expected. There is some temporary ponding available if the backyard areas are
flooded.
Ve reviewed three alternates for providing the storm water outlet
capacity. Alternate I would be to design for maximum storage with minimum
outlet capacity. Alternate II would be to design for a safe amount of storage
with a modest outlet capacity. Alternate III would be to provide for minimal
storage and a maximum outlet capacity. The environmental Impact for each of
the altenu :ies significantly
Alternate 1 would provide an eight inch outlet pipe with approximately O.S
*cre-feet of storage required in a major storm. This could bring the water
elevation above the garage floor at 3055 Casco Point Road. The construction
of an overflow drainageway would be necessary with this alternate.
Alternate II would provide a ten inch outlet pipe with approximately 0.35
ocre-feet oV storage required in a major storm. This would bring the water
elevation to a point 0.5 feet below the garage floor at 3055 Casco Point
Road. The r.onstructlon of an overflow drainageway would be desirable with
this alternate.
Alternate III would provide an eighteen inch outlet pipe and virtually no
storage would be required. The construction of an overflow drainageway would
not be necessary with this alternate

The total water discharged to the lake is nearly the same for all three
alternates. The rate of stom water runoff is greatly reduced for Alternates
I and II. The following is a sususary of the outlet rates for each alternate.

Reducing the rate of runoff ioproves the water quality discharge to the
lake by allowing solids to settle out. The floating debris can be controlled
by constructing a baffle weir near the inlet.

PROTECT COST AND ASSESSMEMT
The project cost and assessment rates for the storm water improvement are
outlined in this section with a detailed cost estimate provided in the
Appendix. The indicated prices are as projected for the 1988 construction
season (ENR 4500).
Alternate I
Alternate II
Alternate III
Estimated Project Cost
$ 9.230
$10,100
$10,600
The project costs are proposed to be assessed to the benefiting property
owners in the watershed on an acreage basis. There are 3.25 acres in the
watershed with the cost per square foot for each alternate shown below.

CQNCLUSIOHS AND SfCOHHEHOATIONS
The project as reviewed herein is feasible as it relates to general
engineering principals and construction procedures. Based on information
contained in this report, it is recommended that:
1. This report be adopted by the City of Orono as a guide for
construction of a storm water improvement on Casco Point Road.
2. The City conduct a legal and fiscal review of the project prior to a
public hearing.
3. A public hearing be held to determine further action to be taken. The
property owners in the watershed which are proposed to be assessed
should be notified for hearing purposes.
4. Alternate II be followed in constructing the improvements.
5. The following schedule be followed if the project is to proceed;
Receive Preliminary Report May 23. 1988
Hold Public Hearing June 13. 1988
Order Plans 4 Specifications June 13, 1988
Approve Plans k Specifications June 27, 1988
Receive Bids July 8, 1988
Award Contract July 11, 1988
Start Construction July 18. 1988
Complete Construction August 15, 1988

The most desirable way for the project to proceed is to have the property
owner at 3061 Casco Point Road install the selected outfall line. The City
would then acquire the necessary easements and assess that cost over tne
entire watershed
