1. All runoff index (RI) numbers are for Antecedent Moisture Condition (AMC) II.

2. Quality of cover definitions:

Poor-Heavily grazed or regularly burned areas. Less than 50 per­ cent of the ground surface is protected by plant cover or brush and tree canopy.

Fair-Moderate cover with 50 percent to 75 percent of the ground sur­ face protected.

Good-Heavy or dense cover with more than 75 percent of the ground surface protected.

3. See Plate C-2 for a detail~d description of cover types.

4. Use runoff index numbers based on ground cover type. See discussion under "Cover Type Descriptions" on Plate C-2.

5. Reference Bibliography item 17.

1. Land use should be based on ultimate development of the watershed.

Long range master plans for the County and incorporated cities should be reviewed to insure reasonable land use assumptions.

2. Recommended values are based on average conditions which may not apply to a particular study area. The percentage impervious may vary greatly even on comparable sized lots due to differences in dwelling size, improvements, etc. Landscape practices should also be considered as it is common in some areas to use ornamental grav­ els underlain by impervious plastic materials in place of lawns and shrubs. A field investigation of a study area should always be made, and a review of aerial photos, where available may assist in estimat­ ing the percentage of impervious cover in developed areas.

3. For typical horse ranch subdivisions increase impervious area 5 per­ cent over the values reconmended in the table above.
