The document discusses the design of surface drainage systems for agricultural areas. It covers estimating design surface runoff using methods like the Rational Method, considerations for layout of drainage networks including topography and minimizing costs, hydraulic design of surface drains using principles from open channel design, and provides an example problem to calculate design discharge capacities. Key aspects include sizing drains to carry peak runoff from drainage areas, using recurrence intervals to determine design storms, and factors that influence runoff generation from rainfall.

Robert Smith is pleading not guilty to a parking violation ticket. He claims that:
1) The officer failed to properly identify him by not including his name on the ticket.
2) The location described on the ticket was too vague.
3) He was briefly waiting in a designated passenger pick-up area at the airport to pick up his friend Joe, as permitted.
Fire hydrants have several key components and uses. The upper section includes outlets that connect to hoses for firefighting. The lower section connects to water mains and contains a main valve. There are different types of hydrants like dry barrel for freezing climates and wet barrel that are always full of water. Proper installation is important, making sure the hydrant has good footing and drainage, is visible to crews, and can be easily accessed and operated during an emergency. Routine maintenance like inspections helps ensure hydrants remain functional.

Fire hydrant installation consists of a system of pipe work connected directly to the water supply main to provide water to each and every hydrant outlet and is intended to provide water for the firemen to fight a fire. The water is discharged into the fire engine form which it is then pumped and sprayed over fire. Where the water supply is not reliable or inadequate, hydrant pumps should be provided to pressurize the fire mains.

2. A case study about what went wrong at a parking ticket
hearing
The best mistakes to make are new mistakes. Here is a case study about the efforts of a
wonderful member of our driving community to fight a fire hydrant parking ticket. Joe
("fictitious") parked his car more than 15 feet from a fire hydrant, but still received an
evil orange epistle for violating the “no fly zone” between a NYC fire hydrant and a
motor vehicle. Joe diligently prepared his defense letter, and created some terrific
exhibits. Joe fought his parking ticket by mail.
A few months later, Joe received a letter from the Evil Empire notifying him that he lost
his case.
What went wrong? (This is the first of a two-part series. The second part will consist of
Larry's defense letter and exhibits used to beat this fire hydrant violation).
Joe submitted this defense letter in support of his fight against
a fire hydrant parking violation
"On Jan 20th 2013 at 1:58pm, I was charged with a $115 fine for parking within
15 yard of a fire hydrant in front of 333 East 91th street.
I plead that I am not guilty as I did not parked within 15 feet within the hydrant
and I have photograph evidences that prove it.
Prior to leave the scene, I have taken several pictures of my car in relation to the
fire hydrant. Later I came back to the scene and measured the distance between
the two. I have provided picture s I took as evidence. Explanations for the
provided evidence are below.
The evidence below can be confirmed by witness, Mr. JC Park whose cellphone
number is 347-266-1283.
Please view the next page to see the submitted picture evidence with explanation.
As the above evidences indicate, my vehicle was not within 15 feet of the fire
hydrant. I can provide more pictures should you find above evidences are not
satisfying. Please right this wrong.

7. Larry's analysis of Joe's fire hydrant parking ticket defense
Kudos to Joe. He parked his car more than 15 feet from the fire hydrant, and fought the
parking ticket because he was right. I am truly sorry to report that Joe failed to present the
proper proof properly. Here's why:
Joe's defense letter is simply a note and does not tell a story. It contains cold, hard,
unsworn, facts.
• The fact that Joe was attending a meeting at his church would have provided a
great back story
• An explanation that Joe's witness was a church member, and parked his car in
front of Joe's car
• Joe's defense letter should have been an affidavit or a certification (preferably an
affidavit), addressed the judge respectfully, and signed by Joe. Remember, the
parking ticket is considered a sworn statement by the parking ticket warrior. If
you're contesting the sworn statement of a warrior, do it with a sworn statement of
your own.
• Joe offered to submit more photographs (If Joe had additional, relevant,
photographs he should have submitted them).
• He offers the name and cell phone number of his witness (Joe's kidding, right?)
• Joe should have submitted a witness certification, and a photograph of his witness
observing the measurement of the distance from the pump to Joe's car
Joe's pictures left gaps in the proof necessary to beat his
parking ticket
• Picture 1 shows the relationship of his car, the street address of the building, and
the fire hydrant. Great. But, Joe should not have included a picture of a red
parking sign located directly in front of his car. If it must be included, Joe should
have submitted proof that his car didn't park in violation of the red sign. A
parking ticket judge isn't going to give Joe the benefit of the doubt with the fire
hydrant violation if he thinks Joe parked illegally, anyway.
• Picture 2 shows a tape measure is stretched out between the fire hydrant and a
strange car. Why not park your car where it was parked when the parking ticket
was issued; or explain why there is an SUV in the picture (along with the red
parking sign).
• Picture 3 attempts to show the name of the street where Joe parked his Mustang.
The only thing this picture proves is that Joe doesn't know how to present the
proper proof, properly of a street address. Joe needs to submit overlapping
photographs and the traffic sign at the corner.
• Picture 4 shows a close up of the tape measure. Joe needs more pictures to
demonstrate to a parking ticket judge's satisfaction that this is the actual
measurement

8. This is part 2-2 of the blog series, “How to lose a Fire Hydrant
Parking Ticket Hearing”
In part 1 of our story, a wonderful member of the NYC driving community submitted his
own defense letter and exhibits to fight a parking ticket for standing within 15 feet of a
fire hydrant. The Evil Empire found Joe guilty. Much to Joe's chagrin, he was issued a
second parking violation for the same offense a couple of weeks later.
But, this time Joe asked Larry to fight the parking ticket. Joe's case is still pending.
Here's the defense certification and exhibits Larry prepared to vanquish this evil orange
epistle.
You may wish to compare the two versions.

Hearing by Mail Unit
Post Office Box 29021
Brooklyn, NY 11202-9021
Violation Code: 40
Fire Hydrant
Dear Honorable Judge:
I certify as follows:
I plead not guilty to this parking violation. I did not park within 15 feet of the fire
hydrant.
I was issued a parking summons on Saturday February 16, 2013. I was walking
back to my car from a church meeting with Bill Smith, a member of my church,
when I saw the summons stuck under my wiper. I am a group leader in my
church. We meet on Saturday mornings.
8
9. Our church is located down the block from the Azure (333 East 91 Street, NYC)
at 316 East 91 Street, NYC). My church rents the “Promise Theater” building on
Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
I returned to my church to get a tape measure to measure the distance I parked
from the fire hydrant. Mr. Smith witnessed these measurements. We both
observed that my car was parked more than 15 feet from the fire hydrant (Please
see the witness certification from Mr. Smith).
I took a series of photographs of my car parked in front of Azure, 333 East 91
Street, and also prepared images of Google Maps- Street View to submit in
support of my defense.
Please see the Exhibits attached hereto.
Under these circumstances, please dismiss this parking ticket.
Thank you.
Respectfully yours,
Joe Doe
Certification
I hereby certify that the foregoing statements made by me are true to the best of my
knowledge. I am aware that if any of my testimony is willfully false, I am subject to
punishment.
I further certify to the truth and accuracy of all the exhibits attached hereto in support of
my defense to this parking violation
I further certify that I did not move my car from the parking space where it received a
parking violation prior to taking the photographs attached hereto as exhibits in support of
my defense.

Exhibit #5: This view is a close-up of the red parking sign. I included this exhibit to
prove that Joe didn't violate the red no standing sign, or the street cleaning signs because
he didn't park his car during the prohibited days/times. You don't want to leave the
impression with a parking ticket judge that you violated a parking rule and got away with
it.
14
15. These exhibits provide the judge with a birds eye view of the scene of the parking crime,
while proving the place of occurrence on the parking ticket matches Joe's photographs of
the scene of the parking crime.
Next we want to prove that Joe parked more than 15 feet from
the fire hydrant

16. Exhibit #6: This is Joe's Mustang. I've removed the view of the front license plate (it
must be included). This exhibit establishes Joe's car matches the description of the
vehicle entered on the parking ticket, and is parked in front of the Azure.
Exhibit #7: This exhibit provides a view of Joe's car, the witness, and the tape measure
extended from the fire hydrant towards the Mustang.

Exhibit #10: A close up view of the tape measure showing that Joe's car was parked
more than 15 feet away from the fire hydrant

20. It is difficult to defeat a parking ticket for
standing within 15 feet of a fire hydrant when
your defense is that you parked further away than
15 feet. A parking ticket judge may claim
that you moved your chariot before taking the
photographs. However, if you do a super job
establishing the place of occurrence, and present
photographic evidence of your measurement,
along with a picture of your witness and a
witness certification, you can beat this parking
ticket.
I've attempted to give you the recipe for success.
Don't take any short cuts. You have a real good
chance to right a wrong and win.
