NOW, THEREFORE,
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NORTH RlCHLAND
HILLS, TEXAS:
SECTION 1. GENERAL
A.
Statement of Purpose
This ordinance sets forth the minimum requirements for development of a detention or
retention drainage facility within the city limits of North Richland Hills. The purpose for
stating the minimum requirements is to achieve the following:
(1.) Protect human life, health, and property.
(2.) Minimize expenditure of public funds for maintenance of these types of drainage
facilities.
(3.) Help maintain a stable tax base and preserve land values.
(4.) Preserve the natural beauty and aesthetics of the community.
B.
Authority
Any person, firm, corporation, or business proposing to develop property or improve
property within North Richland Hills is subject to the provisions of this ordinance. The
ordinance would also apply to anyone wanting to install a detention basin or retention
basin within an existing easement, right-of-way, or FIA/FEMA floodplain.
C. Related Ordinances
The adoption of this ordinance does not change any of the previous provisions of the
Subdivision Ordinance No. 1982, the Public Works Design Manual (Resolution No. 95-
11) or the Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance No. 2498. The DetentionlRetention
Drainage Facility Ordinance shall clarify, allow, and reasonably control the design,
construction, and maintenance requirements of these facilities.

D. When DetentionlRetention Ponds will be Allowed
2
4
DetentionlRetention Ponds will only be allowed if the proposed development is
discharging into a developed downstream system that does not have the capacity to handle
the runoff as mandated in the City's drainage criteria. A developed downstream system
may include Texas Department of Transportation drainage facilities and! or existing North
Richland Hills subdivisions that have drainage improvements that were constructed after
1984. DetentionlRetention Ponds will not be allowed if discharging to an undeveloped
street or property, or if discharging to an area where the City's Master Drainage Plan
indicates drainage improvements are required.

E.
Definitions
Unless specifically defined below, words or phrases used in this ordinance shall be
interpreted to have their common usage meaning and give this ordinance its most
reasonable meaning, subject to final interpretation by the Public Works Department.
(1.) Design Flood - The flood having a one percent (1 %) chance of being equaled or
exceeded in any given year based upon fully developed watershed conditions.
This is commonly known as the 100-year frequency flood, or base flood. "Fully
developed" conditions shall be based on the most current Future Land Use
Assumption Plan for the City of North Rich1and Hills, or current zoning map;
whichever produces the higher runoff coefficients for the drainage area generating
the design flood discharge.
(2.) Detention Basin - A dry basin or depression constructed for the purpose of
temporarily storing stormwater runoff and discharging all ofthat runoff over time
at a rate of flow equal to or less than which would have occurred prior to
installation of the basin. This definition includes all structural components
proposed for the basin (i.e. inlet structures, outlet structures, walls, fences, piping,
headwalls, etc.)
(3.) Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) - The Federal agency which
has and does assist the Federal Insurance Administration administering the
National Flood Insurance Program.
(4.) Federal Insurance Administration (FIA) - The division of the Federal
government which oversees the Flood Insurance Program with the help ofFEMA.
(5.) Freeboard - The vertical distance between the design flood surface and the top
of an open channel, dam, levee, detention or retention basin. The freeboard
allows for wave run-up, wind tide, hydraulic jump, or other design conditions
without overtopping the structure.

(6.) Frequency - The reciprocal of the exceedance probability. For example, a 100-
year frequency storm is one which has a one (1 %) percent chance of being equaled
or exceeded in any year, and a 5-year storm has a twenty (20%) percent chance of
being equaled or exceeded in any year.
4
6
(7.) Hydraulics - Hydraulics is concerned with the determination of the maximum
stage or elevation reached by the waters of a flood at a given location. A flood is
said to have occurred when the maximum stage or elevation results in an overflow
upon lands that are traditionally useable by man and not normally covered by
water.
8
(8.) Hydrology - Hydrology is concerned with the magnitude and frequency of the
flood flow. The magnitude of the flood flow is the statement ofthe quantity of
water that results from a given storm, whereas, the frequency is the statement of
the average return or occurrence of a flood event.
(9.) Inflow Hydrograph - Inflow hydrographs are used to determine the stormwater
flow volume into a detention basin or retention basin. A hydrograph describes the
variation in flow rate over a fixed period oftime.
(10.) Landscaping Plan - A plan that identifies how the detention basin or retention
basin will be landscaped. This plan will need to include the types of plants, trees,
shrubs, grass, decorative fencing, etc., that will be used and will need to be
approved by the City.
(11.) Normal Pool Elevation - The level at which a retention basin was designed to be
prior to a rainfalVrunoff event. In a retention basin, this elevation will be the
water surface of the conservation pool.
(12.) Open Channel- A channel, branch, creek, or stream in which water flows with
a free surface.
(13.) Pond - A still body of water located on the surface ofthe earth.
(14.) Rational Formula - A means of relating runoff from an area and the intensity of
the storm rainfall as defined in the Public Works Design Manual.
(15.) Retention Basin - A pond which has been designed to have both a conservation
pool for holding water indefinitely, and a flood storage pool for storing
stormwater runoff on a temporary basis, for the purpose of reducing the peak
discharge from the basin. This definition includes all structural components
proposed for the basin (i.e. inlet structures, outlet structures, walls, retaining walls,
fences, piping, headwalls, aeration systems, etc.).

(16.) Surface Water - Surface water or sheet flow is water on the surface of the
ground, the source of which is so temporary or limited that it cannot maintain for
any considerable time a stream or body of water having well-defined and
established existence. Surface water is derived from falling rains and melting
snows, and continues to be such until it reaches some well-defined channel in
which it concentrates and flows with other waters, whether derived from the
surface or springs, and then it becomes the running water of a stream and ceases
to be surface water.
4
6
8
(17.) Swale - A shallow waterway. Swales are required above underground storm
drains with capacity, along with the storm drain, to carry a 100-year frequency
storm. The City's Public Works Design Manual requires that such swales shall
be concrete lined.
(18.) Time of Concentration - The estimated time in minutes required for runoff to
flow from the most remote section of the drainage area to the point at which the
flow rate is to be determined.
(19.) Watercourse - A stream of water of such well-defined existence as to make its
flow valuable to the owners of the land along its course. A "recognized"
watercourse is further defined as a channel, creek, or underground storm drain
which has at least a 10-year conveyance of capacity without flooding adjacent
property.
(20.) Watershed - The area contributing storm runoff to a stream, pond, or drainage
system.
SECTION 2. DESIGN
A.
General
The design criteria shown or referenced in this section are the minimum requirements to
be allowed. The detention/retention basins are to be designed, signed, sealed, and dated
by a Professional Civil Engineer registered in the State of Texas, and shall meet all ofthe
City's design standards including, but not limited to, those specified in the Public Works
Design Manual and the current practices and policies followed by the Public Works
Department. The Public Works Director may, in some situations, require the
Owner/Developer's Engineer to follow more stringent design guidelines if, in the opinion
of the Public Works Director, the situation warrants more than the minimum.
Geotechnical and/or soil studies and reports may be requested from the
Owner/Developer's Engineer if, in the opinion of the Public Works Director, it is
warranted for the proposed design. Any deviation from this criteria must be reviewed and
approved by the Public Works Department for use by the Developer and his engineer.

B. Runoff Calculations
2
4
Detention/retention facilities shall be designed based on a 100-year frequency storm
runoff for the upstream drainage watershed area.
6
(1.) Rational Method - The "rational method" can be used to calculate the runoff rate
and volume for drainage areas less than 750 acres. The formula for this method
is Q = CIA.
8
(2.) Hydrograph Method - The "hydro graph method" will be used to calculate the
runoffrate and volume for drainage areas equal to or greater than 750 acres. One
of the following unit hydrograph procedures shall be used.
a.
HEC-1 developed by the Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) of the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
b.
TR55 developed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil
Conservation Service.
Use of other hydrograph methods must be approved by the Public Works
Department prior to beginning design.
C. Flood Routing Methods
The flood routing computer program to be used shall be either HEC-2 from the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers, or TR20 from the Soil Conservation Service. Use of other computer
program routing methods must be approved by the Public Works Department prior to
beginning design.
D.
Parameters
(1.) Inlet - The inlet structure shall allow for the upstream 100-year runoff to be
discharged to the pond in a manner which minimizes erosion.
(2.) Outlet - The outlet structure for detention basin/retention basin shall be
constructed to minimize erosion and allow for the 100-year storm runoff to be
discharged in a controlled manner. An outlet control structure will be installed on
detention/retention basins to achieve the design discharge equal to or less than the
runoff rate which existed from the watershed prior to this proposed development.
On the outlet structure for retention basins, an emergency outlet valve and pipe
shall be installed. The valve and pipe shall be at least eight (8) inches in diameter
and meet all City requirements for water system pipe and valves. Installation of
the emergency outlet valve and pipe shall allow the retention basin to be drained
to within a maximum of one (1) foot of its design bottom.

(3.) Storage - The detention/retention storage basin shall be designed to store that
volume required to reduce the discharge rate out of the basin to not more than the
runoff rate which existed from the watershed prior to this proposed development
which includes the basin. The detention/retention storage volume, excluding
conservation pool, shall drain out completely within 24 hours of the end of a
rainfall event.
4
6
8
(4.) Freeboard - A minimum freeboard of one (1) foot shall be required. This will be
the difference in elevation between the 100-year storm design water surface
elevation, plus increased elevation created by wave action, wind time or hydraulic
jump, anywhere on the detention/retention basin or decorative pond, and the
lowest point on the surrounding embankment within the drainage easement.
(5.) Side Slopes - The embankment side slopes for the different basins or ponds will
be as noted below. The top of the side slope shall be a maximum of twelve (12)
inches above the surrounding ground. The embankment of the basin shall not
"act" as a levee. The 100-year event shall not be higher than the surrounding
ground.
a.
Detention Basin - Slopes shall be 5:1 or milder.
b.
Retention Basin - Slopes shall be 4:1 below normal pool depth and 5:1
above.
(6.) Overbank - The overbank ofthe retention basin (and all detention basins) shall
be block sodded with a Public Works Department-approved native grass. The
grass must be relatively established prior to final approval ofthe construction by
the City.
(7.) Depth-
a.
Retention Basin - The minimum depth ofthe retention basin shall be four
(4) feet from the normal pool elevation to the bottom between the toe of
slopes. The maximum depth of a retention basin shall be no greater than
ten (10) feet.
b.
Detention Basin - The maximum depth of the detention storage in a
parking lot can be designed is eight (8) inches. For all other detention
storage basins, the maximum depth shall not exceed ten (10) feet.
(8.) Velocity - The average velocity of flow through the detention or retention basin
shall be no greater than five (5) feet per second.

(9.) Erosion Control- Erosion control upstream and downstream ofthe basins shall
be considered in the design. Erosion control systems shall be installed where
necessary as determined by the Public Works Department.
4
6
(10.) Aeration - All retention basins will require aeration systems to be installed. The
aeration system will be designed to keep the standing water from stagnating. All
electrical service and maintenance costs for an aeration system shall be the
Owner/Developer or Homeowners Association responsibility to pay. The aeration
system will need to be approved by the Public Works Department with the
approval of the basin. The Owner/Developer's Engineer will provide appropriate
design calculations and/or shop drawings showing that the aeration system is
"sized" adequately for the pond. The aeration system will need to have a
screening/filter device to minimize pump blockage.
8
(11.) Water Supply - Provisions shall be made to keep the water surface elevation in
a retention basin at the normal pool elevation. This will require the Developer to
submit plans and specifications for installation of a water well or wells. Another
alternative is a separate irrigation service connection to the City's water system
to provide the water supply to recharge the basin or pond as needed. The cost of
the water used to recharge the basin shall be the Owner/Deve1oper or
Homeowners Association responsibility to pay. Recharge design shall comply
with all State and Federal requirements.
(12.) Type of Detention - The City will consider different types of detention facilities.
Underground detention and parking lot detention are two examples of alternative
detention facilities that may be allowed.
Underground Detention - will need to include one or more access points for
maintenance, and be designed to minimize maintenance.
Parking Lot Detention - will need to be designed in the "extra" parking spaces. No
detention will be allowed in the required parking spaces. As stated previously, the
maximum depth for parking lot detention shall be eight (8) inches.
SECTION 3. REVIEW AND APPROVAL
A. Submittal Requirements
Sufficient information should be submitted on all proposed detention/retention basins.
This includes the following items:
