Re: Supplemental Hydrologic Study of Sheldrake River Watershed
s Dear Steve:
We have responded to your comments and are pleased to submit our revised supplemental
hydrologic study of the Sheldrake River Watershed. Per our contract, the results of the
study are presented in a format for direct incorporation in the body of the Draft SGEIS,
concurrently being prepared by Ferrandino & Associates.
0
The study evaluates the potential increases in flood flows in the Village of Mamaroneck and
increases in flood elevations in the Town resulting from four additional development
_ scenarios for the Bonnie Briar Country Club; three development plans prepared by Parish
& Weiner (Alternatives A, B and C) and one development plan (CR Modified) prepared
by Ferrandino & Associates, concurrent development of the Winged Foot Golf Club is
considered in our evaluation.
The study follows the methodology of our original Hydrologic Study of the Sheldrake River
Watershed dated March 1990 and draws on the results of the modeling performed in that
Study.
p-
We appreciate the opportunity to assist the Town in its planning efforts and look forward
to discussing the contents of the draft report with Town Officials and Staff in conjunction
with review of the Draft SGEIS.
If you have any questions regarding this report please contact me.
Very truly yours,
MALCOLM PIRNIE, INC.

3.1.3 Probable Significant Environmental Impacts Upon and Mitigation Measures for
Natural Resources
B. Water Resources
The following hydrologic analysis conducted by Malcolm Pirnie Inc., is based on cumulative
impact,assuming similar development scenarios for Bonnie Briar Country Club and Winged
Foot Golf Club. Conceptual plans provided by Parish & Weiner, Inc., for development
under Alternative B, provided the basis for the hydrologic analysis of the Bonnie Briar
property. However,no plans were available for the Winged Foot property under Alternative
• B.
For Alternative B, no hydrologic modeling was performed. All hydrologic modeling was
performed earlier in the DGEIS for CR Townhouse, CR Detached, R30 Townhouse, and
R30 Detached alternatives. Therefore, to predict impacts in the Town and Village as a
result of development under the Alternative B scenario, estimates of peak flow and flood •
• elevation were determined by selecting the development scheme from the DGEIS which was
most similar to Alternative B. The selection was based on the location and extent of
imperviousness (from construction of buildings and roadways) resulting from the proposed
Alternative B schematic. These two factors, location and extent of imperviousness, effect
the runoff curve number (CN) parameter within each sub-basin. This parameter in turn
• allows the selection of one of the alternatives previously analyzed in detail in the DGEIS.
For Alternative B,the most similar development scheme in Bonnie Briar property which was
modeled as part of the DGEIS,was the R30 Townhouse alternative. Since no similar plans
were available for Winged Foot, the R30 Townhouse development scenario was also
assumed for the Winged Foot site. (Refer to Appendix A of the SGEIS). Therefore
impacts in the Town and Village under Alternative B will be similar to impacts under R30
0-- Townhouse. (See Appendix 5-5 of DGEIS for further detail). Again, it should be noted that
the assumptions made regarding similar development scenarios(studied in the DGEIS), are
predicated on the imperviousness and location of the proposed units, not the actual zoning
description of R30 Townhouse.
1. Impacts on the Town of Mamaroneck (unincorporated area)
•
• Affected Sub-basins: Under the proposed development scheme,sub-basins 3,4,and
7 would be affected by the Bonnie Briar development. The majority of the
development(approximately 70 percent)would occur in sub-basin 4. Approximately
15 percent of the development would occur in each of sub-basins 3 and 7. For the
••-= Winged Foot development, sub-basin 6 would be affected. Sub-basin 6 is within the
Sheldrake Watershed upstream of the I-95 culvert. (Sub-basins 8 and 9 would also
be affected by the Winged Foot development but they are outside of the Sheldrake
Watershed. Hence, development in 8 and 9 would impact the Village but not the
Town).
• Peak Runoff Flow: For each sub-basin affected by the proposed development, a
series of runoff flows was estimated for the 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100-year storms. The
impacts are highest in the more frequent storms (5-year) and lowest in the less
frequent storms (100-year). Larger storms tend to saturate soils to a degree
whereby unpaved areas contribute to runoff almost as much as paved areas.
•
to
Therefore, the increase in runoff due to imperviousness is less noticeable for the
100-year storms.
Bonnie Briar: Since the increase in impervious surfaces in sub-basins 3 and 7 is
relatively small in comparison to the total sub-basin areas, the runoff curve numbers
remain unaffected. Therefore,less than 1 percent increase in peak runoff flow over
existing conditions is projected within sub-basins 3 and 7. However,within sub-basin
4, the increase in imperviousness results in an increase in the runoff curve number
similar to the increase experienced under the R30 Townhouse development scheme.
(See Table A-1 in Appendix A). Within sub-basin 4, a 5 percent increase in peak
flow would be experienced during a 5-year storm and a 3 percent increase during a
100-year storm. (See Table A-2 in Appendix A).
Winged Foot: For the Winged Foot development, an increase in the runoff curve
number is projected for sub-basin 6 similar to the increase under the R30
Townhouse development scheme. Within sub-basin 6, a 5 percent increase in peak
runoff is projected during a 5-year storm and a 3 percent increase during a 100-year
storm. (See Table A-2 in Appendix A).
,r Overall: Individual sub-basin runoff flows peak at different times in the Watershed.
This routing of sub-basin flows through the drainage area results in a dampening of
peak runoff flows in the lower reaches of the Watershed. Therefore, the overall
peak flow increase from development (under Alternative B) of both Bonnie Briar
and Winged Foot properties estimated for the lower Sheldrake River near the I-95
crossing is 1 percent for the 5-year storm and 0.6 percent for the 100-year storm.
These overall peak flow estimates are based on hydrologic modeling results
performed for the R30 Townhouse development scheme. (See Table A-3 in
Appendix A).
• Flood Plain Elevations: Water surface elevations corresponding to the peak runoff
flows from the developed sub-basins are determined for the series of five storm
frequencies. Water surface profile results based on hydrologic modeling of the
Watershed, show variations in flood elevation increases along the Sheldrake River.
Since flood elevations are also dependent on stream geometry which constantly
varies, higher runoff flows do not necessarily correspond to higher flood elevations.
Bonnie Briar: Within sub-basin 3, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of
0.04 feet is projected during the 50-year storm along the East Branch where the
stream parallels Fenimore Road between Cornell Street and Winding Brook Drive.
Within sub-basin 4, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of 0.05 feet is
projected during the 5-year storm at two different locations near the confluence of
the East Branch with the Sheldrake River. Within sub-basin 7, a maximum increase
in flood plain elevation of 0.10 feet is projected during the 5-year and 100-year
storms at two locations; along the East Branch where the stream parallels Ridgeway
Road and along the East Branch between Hilltop Road and York Road. (See Table
A-4 in Appendix A).
•_ Winged Foot: Within sub-basin 6, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of
0.09 feet is projected during the 100-year storm along the East Tributary near Salem
Drive.
•
• Flooding: The increase in water surface elevation (0.1 feet or less) due to the
proposed development scheme (Alternative B), has no observable effect on the
existing flood plain area. The increase along the river sections within each sub-basin
does not affect any additional dwellings. As a result of the proposed Alternative B
development, we do not project any additional houses to be flooded in the Town of
Mamaroneck along the Sheldrake River. However, those houses that are presently
being flooded could experience increased flooding up to 0.1 feet during the 5-year
and 100-year storms. (For the extent of flooded areas, refer to Appendix 5-5 in the
DGEIS).
However, localized flooding within the developed area itself or in areas immediately
adjacent to the property may be a concern during and after construction. This can
happen for instance when existing culvert and storm drains are not adequate for
increased runoff flow.
• Wetlands: Under the proposed development scheme, the low lying area along the
Sheldrake River in the Bonnie Briar property would be completely preserved. The
existing wetlands are also preserved. Therefore no increase in flood flows due to
encroachment upon these areas is expected under this development alternative.
• Water Quality: The Sheldrake River and its tributaries are classified "C"waters and
must meet the corresponding standards for fecal coliform, pH, dissolved solids, and
dissolved oxygen. Although no detailed analysis of the water quality aspects was
performed for the DGEIS, a minimal degree of water quality degradation is
expected under the proposed development because this alternative results in a small
increase in road surface area. Less than 5 percent of the Bonnie Briar property is
intended to be paved for roads. Increased road surface area typically results in
increased dissolved oxygen demands, pH and heavy metals in the drainage system.
• Mitigation Measures: The properties should be developed with storm water
controls in mind (i.e., properly sized culverts, storm drains and retention ponds) to
reduce peak runoff flows to the drainage system. Increase in runoff is partially
mitigated by the protected large wooded areas interspersed throughout the
_ development which can absorb runoff and minimize potential flooding both on and
off site. Although an increase in runoff of suspended solids on the property is
expected, the water quality degradation in the receiving streams can be minimized
•
by providing detention ponds to retain the storm water runoff. The class "C"
designation for the Sheldrake River is expected to continue.

2. Impacts on the Village of Mamaroneck
Impacts in the Village, downstream of the Sheldrake River Watershed above the I-95
culvert, were not determined by detailed hydrologic computer modeling. For the two sub-
basins in the Winged Foot property which lie outside the Sheldrake Watershed, a similar
but simplified "desktop" methodology was used to determine peak runoff flows. The
• methodology developed by the SCS (TR-55 Method) uses runoff curve numbers (CN) and
times of concentration to estimate peak runoff flow. Both CN values and times of
concentration were determined based on the assumption that a corresponding Alternative
B development for the Winged Foot property would be most similar to R30 Townhouse
development for this area. Cummulative impacts in the Village were determined by adding
impacts in the Town (determined from modeling) and impacts from sub-basins 8 and 9
•
(determined from SCS TR-55 method). The individual impacts from sub-basins 8 and 9
added to the impacts from the Town, do not consider dampening of peak flows which
normally occurs during a storm event as individual flows reach a river at different times.
The estimated cummulative impacts in the Village are therefore somewhat conservative
since they assume that all flows reach the river simultaneously.
• Affected Sub-basins: Under the proposed development scheme, sub-basins 3, 4, and
7 draining to the Sheldrake River would be affected by the Bonnie Briar develop-
- ment. Sub-basin 6, also draining to the Sheldrake River, would be affected by the
Winged Foot development. Additionally, sub-basins 8 and 9 draining to the
Mamaroneck River would be affected by the Winged Foot development. Because
the Sheldrake River is tributary to the Mamaroneck River, development upstream
in sub-basins 3, 4, 6 and 7 would not only potentially impact the Town but also the
Village of Mamaroneck. Impacts in the Village will not only include the peak flow
increases from sub-basins 3, 4, 6 and 7 (in the Town), but will also include peak flow
increases from sub-basin 8 and 9 as discussed below.
• Peak Runoff Flow: For sub-basins 8 and 9 the proposed Alternative B development
for the Winged Foot property was assumed to be similar to the R30 Townhouse
development scheme. A series of runoff flows was simulated for the 5, 10, 25, 50,
and 100-year storms. The impacts are highest in the more frequent storms (5-year)
and lowest in the less frequent storms (100-year). Larger storms tend to saturate
soils to a degree whereby unpaved areas contribute to runoff almost as much as
paved areas. Therefore, the increase in runoff due to imperviousness is less
noticeable for the 100-year storms.
The percentage of sub-basin area proposed for development in 8 and 9 is relatively
larger than for other affected sub-basins because of the drainage area delineation.
The increase in impervious surface area in sub-basins 8 and 9 due to development
is approximately 10 percent compared to 3 percent or less for sub-basins 3, 4, 6 and
7. Therefore, the individual peak flow increases within sub-basins 8 and 9 is much
higher than in sub-basins 3, 4, 6 and 7 which have a smaller percentage of the sub-
basin area being developed.
The runoff curve numbers for sub-basins 8 and 9 increase over existing conditions.
vo— (See Table B-1 in Appendix B). Within sub-basin 8, a 33 percent increase in peak
flow would be experienced during a 5-year storm and a 20 percent increase during
a 100-year storm. Within sub-basin 9, a 23 percent increase in peak flow would be
experienced during a 5-year storm and a 14 percent increase would be experienced
during a 100-year storm. These projected increases do not take into consideration
any mitigation measures. (See Table B-2 in Appendix B).
Individual sub-basin runoff flows peak at different times in the Watershed. This
routing of sub-basin flows through the drainage area results in a dampening of peak
runoff flows in the lower reaches of the Watershed. For sub-basins 8 and 9,
hydrologic modeling was not performed and therefore dampening effects were not
determined. The overall peak flow increase from development of both Bonnie Briar
•
and Winged Foot properties (under Alternative B) is determined for a location
along the Mamaroneck River in the Village at a gaging station near the Conrail
Line. The overall peak flow increase in the Village is estimated to be 1.2 percent
during a 5-year storm and 0.9 percent during a 100-year storm. These peak flow
0 estimates are slightly conservative due to the fact that some dampening of sub-basin
8 and 9 flows will occur which was not accounted for. Peak flows for sub-basins 3,
4, 6, and 7 were determined by hydrologic modeling which includes dampening
effects, while peak flows for sub-basins 8 and 9 are determined using SCS TR-55
methodology which does not include dampening effects. (See Table B-3 in Appendix
B).
• Mitigation Measures: The properties should be developed with storm water controls
in mind (i.e., properly sized culverts, storm drains and retention ponds) to reduce
peak runoff flows to the drainage system. Increase in runoff is partially mitigated by
the protected large wooded areas interspersed throughout the development which
can absorb runoff and minimize potential flooding both on and off site. Although
an increase in runoff of suspended solids on the property is expected, the water
quality degradation in the receiving streams can be minimized by providing
detention ponds to retain the storm water runoff. The class"C" classification for the
River is not expected to change.
3.2 Description of Parish & Weiner Alternative A - Bonnie Briar Country Club
3.2.3 Probable Significant Environmental Impacts Upon and Mitigation Measures for
Natural Resources
B. Water Resources
The following hydrologic analysis conducted by Malcolm Pirnie Inc., is based on cumulative
impact,assuming similar development scenarios for Bonnie Briar Country Club and Winged
Foot Golf Club. Conceptual plans provided by Parish & Weiner, Inc., for development
under Alternative A, provided the basis for the hydrologic analysis of the Bonnie Briar
property. However,no plans were available for the Winged Foot property under Alternative
A.
For Alternative A, no hydrologic modeling was performed. All hydrologic modeling was
performed earlier in the DGEIS for CR Townhouse, CR Detached, R30 Townhouse, and
R30 Detached alternatives. Therefore, to predict impacts in the Town and Village as a
result of development under the Alternative A scenario, estimates of peak flow and flood
elevation were determined by selecting the development scheme from the DGEIS which was
most similar to Alternative A. The selection was based on the location and extent of
imperviousness (from construction of buildings and roadways) resulting from the proposed
Alternative A schematic. These two factors, location and extent of imperviousness, effect
the runoff curve number (CN) parameter within each sub-basin. This parameter in turn
allows the selection of one of the alternatives previously analyzed in detail in the DGEIS.
For the Bonnie Briar property, the hydrologic parameters corresponding to Alternative A,
are within the range of parameters associated with the CR Detached and the R30 Detached
— alternatives which were modeled in detail as part of the DGEIS. Since no similar plans
were available for Winged Foot property, it is assumed that a similar development on
Winged Foot will also have impacts ranging between these two alternatives.
Because the Alternative A scheme fell somewhere inbetween the two modeled scenarios,
the impacts in the Town and Village from Alternative A development are expressed as a
range; greater than impacts from CR Detached, but less than impacts from R30 Detached.
(Refer to Appendix A of the SGEIS). Again, it should be noted that the assumptions made
regarding similar development scenarios (studied in the DGEIS), are predicated on the
imperviousness and location of the proposed units, not the actual zoning description of R30
Detached nor CR Detached.
1. Impacts on the Town of Mamaroneck (unincorporated area)
• Affected Sub-basins: Under the proposed development scheme, sub-basins 3, 4, and
7 would be affected by the Bonnie Briar development. The majority of the
development (approximately 50 percent)would occur in sub-basin 4. Approximately
25 percent of the development would occur in each of sub-basins 3 and 7. For the
Winged Foot development, sub-basin 6 would be affected. Sub-basin 6 is within the
Sheldrake Watershed upstream of the I-95 culvert. (Sub-basins 8 and 9 would also
be affected by the Winged Foot development but they are outside of the Sheldrake
Watershed. Hence, development in 8 and 9 would impact the Village but not the
Town).
• Peak Runoff Flow: For each sub-basin affected by the proposed development, a
series of runoff flows was estimated for the 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100-year storms. The
impacts are highest in the more frequent storms (5-year) and lowest in the less
frequent storms (100-year). Larger storms tend to saturate soils to a degree
whereby unpaved areas contribute to runoff almost as much as paved areas.
Therefore, the increase in runoff due to imperviousness is less noticeable for the
100-year storms.
Bonnie Briar: Since the increase in impervious surfaces in sub-basin 3 is relatively
small in comparison to the total sub-basin area, the runoff curve number remains
unaffected. Therefore,less than 1 percent increase in peak runoff flow over existing
conditions is projected within sub-basin 3. However, within sub-basins 4 and 7, the
increase in imperviousness results in an increase in the runoff curve numbers in the
range of increases experienced under the CR Detached and R30 Detached
development schemes. Under the R30 Detached scheme there is an increase in the
sub-basin 3 runoff curve number which is not experienced in the Alternative A
scheme. The impacts in the Town from development under the Alternative A
scheme fall in the range between impacts from the CR Detached and R30 Detached
schemes. (See Table A-1 in Appendix A).
Within sub-basin 4, a 5 to 10 percent increase in peak flow would be experienced
during a 5-year storm and a 3 to 6 percent increase during a 100-year storm. Within
sub-basin 7, a 0 to 5 percent increase in peak flow would be experienced during a
5-year storm and a 0 to 3 percent increase during a 100-year storm. (See Table A-2
in Appendix A).
Winged Foot: For the Winged Foot development, an increase in the runoff curve
number is projected for sub-basin 6 which is in the range of increases estimated for
the CR Detached and R30 Detached development schemes. Within sub-basin 6, a
5 to 11 percent increase in peak runoff flow is projected during a 5-year storm and
•— a 3 to 6 percent increase during a 100-year storm. (See Table A-2 in Appendix A).
Overall: Individual sub-basin runoff flows peak at different times in the Watershed.
This routing of sub-basin flows through the drainage area results in a dampening of
peak runoff flows in the lower reaches of the Watershed. Therefore, the overall
• peak flow increase from development (under Alternative A) of both Bonnie Briar
and Winged Foot properties estimated for the lower Sheldrake River near the I-95
crossing is 1 to 2 percent for the 5-year storm and 0.6 to 1.1 percent for the 100-year
storm. These overall peak flow estiamtes are based on hydrologic modeling results
performed for the R30 Detached and CR Detached development schemes. (See
Table A-3 in Appendix A).

Watershed, show variations in flood elevation increases along the Sheldrake River.
Since flood elevations are also dependent on stream geometry which constantly

Bonnie Briar: Within sub-basin 3, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of
_ 0.03 to 0.04 feet is projected during the 50-year and 100-year storms along the East
Branch where the stream parallels Fenimore Road between Cornell Street and
•
Winding Brook Drive. Within sub-basin 4, a maximum increase in flood plain
elevation of 0.05 to 0.10 feet is projected during the 5-year storm at two different
locations near the confluence of the East Branch with the Sheldrake River. Within
sub-basin 7, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of 0.10 to 0.21 feet is
projected during the 5-year storm at two locations; along the East Branch where the
stream parallels Ridgeway Road and along the East Branch between Hilltop Road
and York Road. (See Table A-4 in Appendix A).
Winged Foot: Within sub-basin 6, maximum increase in flood plain elevation of 0.07
to 0.24 feet is projected during the 25-year storm along the East Tributary near
Salem Drive.
• Flooding: The increase in water surface elevation (0.24 feet or less) due to the
proposed development scheme (Alternative A), has no observable effect on the
existing flood plain area. The increase along the river sections within each sub-basin
does not affect any additional dwellings. As a result of the proposed Alternative A
development, we do not project any additional houses to be flooded in the Town of
Mamaroneck along the Sheldrake River. However, those houses that are presently
being flooded could experience increased flooding up to 0.24 feet during the 5-year
and 25-year storms. (For the extent of flooded areas, refer to Appendix 5-5 in the
DGEIS).
However,localized flooding within the developed area itself or in areas immediately
adjacent to the property may be a concern during and after construction. This can
happen for instance when existing culvert and storm drains are not adequate for
increased runoff flow.

surface area. Less than 5 percent of the Bonnie Briar property is intended to be

2. Impacts on the Village of Mamaroneck
Impacts in the Village, downstream of the Sheldrake River Watershed above the I-95
culvert, were not determined by detailed hydrologic computer modeling. For the two sub-
basins in the Winged Foot property which lie outside the Sheldrake Watershed, a similar
but simplified "desktop" methodology was used to determine peak runoff flows. The
methodology developed by the SCS (TR-55 Method) uses runoff curve numbers (CN) and
times of concentration to estimate peak runoff flow. Both CN values and times of
concentration were determined based on the assumption that a corresponding Alternative
A development for the Winged Foot property would have hydrologic features inbetween the
range estimated for CR Detached and R30 Detached scenarios. Cummulative impacts in
the Village were determined by adding impacts in the Town (determined from modeling)
and impacts from sub-basins 8 and 9 (determined from SCS TR-55 method). The individual
impacts from sub-basins 8 and 9 added to the impacts from the Town, do not consider
dampening of peak flows which normally occurs during a storm event as individual flows
reach a river at different times. The estimated cummulative impacts in the Village are
therefore somewhat conservative since they assume that all flows reach the river
simultaneously.
• Affected Sub-basins: Under the proposed development scheme, sub-basins 3,4, and
7 draining to the Sheldrake River would be affected by the Bonnie Briar develop-
ment. Sub-basin 6, also draining to the Sheldrake River, would be affected by the
Winged Foot development. Additionally, sub-basins 8 and 9 draining to the
Mamaroneck River would be affected by the Winged Foot development. Because
the Sheldrake River is tributary to the Mamaroneck River, development upstream
in sub-basins 3, 4, 6 and 7 would not only potentially impact the Town but also the
Village of Mamaroneck. Impacts in the Village will not only include the peak flow
increases from sub-basins 3, 4, 6 and 7 (in the Town), but will also include peak flow
increases from sub-basin 8 and 9 as discussed below.
•_ • Peak Runoff Flow: For sub-basins 8 and 9 the proposed Alternative A development
for the Winged Foot property was assumed to be somewhere inbetween CR
Detached and R30 Detached development schemes. A series of runoff flows was
projected for the 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100-year storms. The impacts are highest in the
more frequent storms (5-year) and lowest in the less frequent storms (100-year).
-- Larger storms tend to saturate soils to a degree whereby unpaved areas contribute
• to runoff almost as much as paved areas. Therefore, the increase in runoff due to
imperviousness is less noticeable for the 100-year storms.
The percentage of sub-basin area proposed for development in 8 and 9 is relatively
larger than for other affected sub-basins because of the drainage area delineation.
• -- The increase in impervious surface area in sub-basins 8 and 9 due to development
is approximately 10 percent compared to 3 percent or less for sub-basins 3, 4, 6 and
7. Therefore, the individual peak flow increases within sub-basins 8 and 9 is much
higher than in sub-basins 3, 4, 6 and 7 which have a smaller percentage of the sub-
basin area being developed.
• The runoff curve numbers for sub-basins 8 and 9 increase over existing conditions.
(See Table B-1 in Appendix B). Within sub-basin 8, a 39-71 percent increase in
peak flow would be experienced during a 5-year storm and a 27 to 52 percent
increase during a 100-year storm. Within sub-basin 9, a 27 to 68 percent increase
in peak flow would be experienced during a 5-year storm and a 14 to 54 percent
•
increase would be experienced during a 100-year storm. These projected increases
do not take into consideration any mitigation measures. (See Table B-2 in Appendix
B).
Individual sub-basin runoff flows peak at different times in the Watershed. This
routing of sub-basin flows through the drainage area results in a dampening of peak
runoff flows in the lower reaches of the Watershed. For sub-basins 8 and 9,
hydrologic modeling was not performed and therefore dampening effects were not
determined. The overall peak flow increase from development of both Bonnie Briar
and Winged Foot properties (under Alternative A) is determined for a location
along the Mamaroneck River in the Village at a USGS gaging station near the
Conrail Line. The overall peak flow increase in the Village is estimated to be 1.4
to 2.9 percent during 5-year storm and 1.0 to 2.5 percent during a 100-year storm.
These peak flow estimates are slightly conservative due to the fact that some
dampening of sub-basin 8 and 9 flows will occur which was not accounted for. Peak
flows for sub-basins 3, 4, 6, and 7 were determined by hydrologic modeling which
includes dampening effects, while peak flows for sub-basins 8 and 9 are determined
using SCS TR-55 methodology which does not include dampening effects. (See
Table B-3 in Appendix B).
• Mitigation Measures: The properties should be developed with storm water controls
in mind (i.e., properly sized culverts, storm drains and retention ponds) to reduce
peak runoff flows to the drainage system. Increase in runoff is partially mitigated by
the protected large wooded areas interspersed throughout the development which
can absorb runoff and minimize potential flooding both on and off site. Although
an increase in runoff of suspended solids on the property is expected, the water
quality degradation in the receiving streams can be minimized by providing
detention ponds to retain the storm water runoff. The class"C' classification for the
River is not expected to change.

3.2.3 Probable Significant Environmental Impacts Upon and Mitigation Measures for
Natural Resources
B. Water Resources
The following hydrologic analysis conducted by Malcolm Pirnie Inc., is based on cumulative
impact, assuming similar development scenarios for Bonnie Briar Country Club and Winged
Foot Golf Club. Conceptual plans provided by Parish & Weiner, Inc., for development
under Alternative C, provided the basis for the hydrologic analysis of the Bonnie Briar
property. However,no plans were available for the Winged Foot property under Alternative
C.
For Alternative C, no hydrologic modeling was performed. All hydrologic modeling was
performed earlier in the DGEIS for CR Townhouse, CR Detached, R30 Townhouse, and
R30 Detached alternatives. Therefore, to predict impacts in the Town and Village as a
result of development under the Alternative C scenario, estimates of peak flow and flood
elevation were determined by selecting the development scheme from the DGEIS which was
most similar to Alternative C. The selection was based on the location and extent of
imperviousness (from construction of buildings and roadways) resulting from the proposed
Alternative C schematic. These two factors, location and extent of imperviousness, effect
the runoff curve number (CN) parameter within each sub-basin. This parameter in turn
allows the selection of one of the alternatives previously analyzed in detail in the DGEIS.
For the Bonnie Briar property, the hydrologic parameters corresponding to Alternative C,
are within the range of parameters associated with the CR Detached and the R30 Detached
alternatives which were modeled in detail as part of the DGEIS. Since no similar plans
were available for Winged Foot property, it is assumed that a similar development on
Winged Foot will also have impacts ranging between these two alternatives.
•.,. Because the Alternative C scheme fell somewhere inbetween the two modeled scenarios,the
impacts in the Town and Village from Alternative C development are expressed as a range;
greater than impacts from CR Detached, but less than impacts from R30 Detached. (Refer
to Appendix A of the SGEIS). Again, it should be noted that the assumptions made
regarding similar development scenarios (studied in the DGEIS), are predicated on the
imperviousness and location of the proposed units, not the actual zoning description of R30
•
Detached nor CR Detached.
1. Impacts on the Town of Mamaroneck (unincorporated area)
•— • Affected Sub-basins: Under the proposed development scheme, sub-basins 3,4, and
7 would be affected by the Bonnie Briar development. The majority of the
development (approximately 60 percent)would occur in sub-basin 4. Approximately
20 percent of the development would occur in each of sub-basins 3 and 7. For the
Winged Foot development, sub-basin 6 would be affected. Sub-basin 6 is within the
Sheldrake Watershed upstream of the I-95 culvert. (Sub-basins 8 and 9 would also
• be affected by the Winged Foot development but they are outside of the Sheldrake
Watershed. Hence, development in 8 and 9 would impact the Village but not the
Town).
• Peak Runoff Flow: For each sub-basin affected by the proposed development, a
series of runoff flows was estimated for the 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100-year storms. The
impacts are highest in the more frequent storms (5-year) and lowest in the less
frequent storms (100-year). Larger storms tend to saturate soils to a degree
whereby unpaved areas contribute to runoff almost as much as paved areas.
Therefore, the increase in runoff due to imperviousness is less noticeable for the
100-year storms.
Bonnie Briar: Since the increase in impervious surfaces in sub-basin 3 is relatively
_ small in comparison to the total sub-basin area, the runoff curve number remains
unaffected. Therefore,less than 1 percent increase in peak runoff flow over existing
conditions is projected within sub-basin 3. However, within sub-basins 4 and 7, the
increase in imperviousness results in an increase in the runoff curve numbers in the
range of increases experienced under the CR Detached and R30 Detached
development schemes. Under the R30 Detached scheme there is an increase in the
sub-basin 3 runoff curve number which is not experienced in the Alternative C
scheme. The impacts in the Town from development under the Alternative C
scheme fall in the range between impacts from the CR Detached and R30 Detached
schemes. (See Table A-1 in Appendix A).
•
Within sub-basin 4, a 5 to 10 percent increase in peak flow would be experienced
during a 5-year storm and a 3 to 6 percent increase during a 100-year storm. Within
sub-basin 7, a 0 to 5 percent increase in peak flow would be experienced during a
5-year storm and a 0 to 3 percent increase during a 100-year storm. (See Table A-2
�-- in Appendix A).
Winged Foot: For the Winged Foot development, an increase in the runoff curve
number is projected for sub-basin 6 which is in the range of increases estimated for
the CR Detached and R30 Detached development schemes. Within sub-basin 6, a
5 to 11 percent increase in peak runoff flow is projected during a 5-year storm and
a 3 to 6 percent increase during a 100-year storm. (See Table A-2 in Appendix A).
Overall: Individual sub-basin runoff flows peak at different times in the Watershed.
This routing of sub-basin flows through the drainage area results in a dampening of
peak runoff flows in the lower reaches of the Watershed. Therefore, the overall
peak flow increase from development (under Alternative C) of both Bonnie Briar
and Winged Foot properties estimated for the lower Sheldrake River near the 1-95
crossing is 1 to 2 percent for the 5-year storm and 0.6 to 1.1 percent for the 100-year
storm. These overall peak flow estiamtes are based on hydrologic modeling results
performed for the R30 Detached and CR Detached development schemes. (See
Table A-3 in Appendix A).
• Flood Plain Elevations: Water surface elevations corresponding to the peak runoff
flows from the developed sub-basins are determined for the series of five storm
frequencies. Water surface profile results based on hydrologic modeling of the
Watershed, show variations in flood elevation increases along the Sheldrake River.
Since flood elevations are also dependent on stream geometry which constantly
varies, higher runoff flows do not necessarily correspond to higher flood elevations.
Bonnie Briar: Within sub-basin 3, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of
0.03 to 0.04 feet is projected during the 50-year and 100-year storms along the East
Branch where the stream parallels Fenimore Road between Cornell Street and
•
Winding Brook Drive. Within sub-basin 4, a maximum increase in flood plain
elevation of 0.05 to 0.10 feet is projected during the 5-year storm at two different
locations near the confluence of the East Branch with the Sheldrake River. Within
sub-basin 7, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of 0.10 to 0.21 feet is
projected during the 5-year storm at two locations; along the East Branch where the
stream parallels Ridgeway Road and along the East Branch between Hilltop Road
and York Road. (See Table A-4 in Appendix A).
Winged Foot: Within sub-basin 6,maximum increase in flood plain elevation of 0.07
to 0.24 feet is projected during the 25-year storm along the East Tributary near
Salem Drive.
• Flooding: The increase in water surface elevation (0.24 feet or less) due to the
proposed development scheme (Alternative C), has no observable effect on the
existing flood plain area. The increase along the river sections within each sub-basin
does not affect any additional dwellings. As a result of the proposed Alternative C
development, we do not project any additional houses to be flooded in the Town of
Mamaroneck along the Sheldrake River. However, those houses that are presently
being flooded could experience increased flooding up to 0.24 feet during the 5-year
and 25-year storms. (For the extent of flooded areas, refer to Appendix 5-5 in the
DGEIS).
However,localized flooding within the developed area itself or in areas immediately
adjacent to the property may be a concern during and after construction. This can
happen for instance when existing culvert and storm drains are not adequate for
increased runoff flow.
• Wetlands: Under the proposed development scheme, the low lying area along the
Sheldrake River in the Bonnie Briar property would be completely preserved. The
existing wetlands are also preserved. Therefore no increase in flood flows due to
encroachment upon these areas is expected under this development alternative.
• Water Quality: The Sheldrake River and its tributaries are classified "C"waters and
must meet the standards for fecal coliform, pH, dissolved solids, and dissolved
oxygen. Although no detailed analysis of the water quality aspects was performed
for the DGEIS, a minimal degree of water quality degradation os expected under
r the proposed development because this alternative results in a small increase in road
surface area. Less than 5 percent of the Bonnie Briar property is intended to be
paved for roads. Increased road surface area typically results in increased dissolved
oxygen demands, pH and heavy metals in the drainage system.
• • Mitigation Measures: The properties should be developed with storm water
controls in mind (i.e., properly sized culverts, storm drains and retention ponds) to
reduce peak runoff flows to the drainage system. Increase in runoff is partially
mitigated by the protected large wooded areas interspersed throughout the
development which can absorb runoff and minimize potential flooding both on and
off site. Although an increase in runoff of suspended solids on the property is
•
expected, the water quality degradation in the receiving streams can be minimized
by providing detention ponds to retain the storm water runoff. The class "C"
designation for the Sheldrake River is expected to continue.

Bonnie Briar Country Club
3.5.4 Probable Significant Environmental Impacts Upon and Mitigation Measures for
Natural Resources
B. Water Resources
The following hydrologic analysis conducted by Malcolm Pirnie Inc., is based on cumulative
impact,assuming similar development scenarios for Bonnie Briar Country Club and Winged
Foot Golf Club. Conceptual plans provided by Ferrandino and Associates, Inc., for
development under Modified CR Alternative,provided the basis for the hydrologic analysis
of the Bonnie Briar property. However, no plans were available for the Winged Foot
property under Modified CR.
For the Modified CR alternative, no hydrologic modeling was performed. All hydrologic
modeling was performed earlier in the DGEIS for CR Townhouse, CR Detached, R30
Townhouse, and R30 Detached alternatives. Therefore, to predict impacts in the Town and
Village as a result of development under the Modified CR scenario, estimates of peak flow
and flood elevation were determined by selecting the development scheme from the DGEIS
which was most similar to the Modified CR alternative. The selection was based on the
location and extent of imperviousness (from construction of buildings and roadways)
resulting from the proposed Modified CR schematic. These two factors,location and extent
of imperviousness, effect the runoff curve number (CN) parameter within each sub-basin.
This parameter in turn allows the selection of one of the alternatives previously analyzed
in detail in the DGEIS. For the Modified CR alternative, the most similar development
scheme in Bonnie Briar property which was modeled as part of the DGEIS, was the R30
Townhouse alternative. Since no similar plans were available for Winged Foot, the R30
Townhouse development was also assumed for the Winged Foot site. (Refer to Appendix
A of the SGEIS). Therefore impacts in the Town and Village under Modified CR will be
similar to impacts under R30 Townhouse. (See Appendix 5-5 of DGEIS for further detail).
Again, it should be noted that the assumptions made regarding similar development
scenarios (studied in the DGEIS),are predicated on the imperviousness and location of the
proposed units, not the actual zoning description of R30 Townhouse.
1. Impacts on the Town of Mamaroneck (unincorporated area)
• Affected Sub-basins: Under the proposed development scheme, sub-basins 3, 4 and
7 would be affected by the Bonnie Briar development. Approximately 40 percent
of the development would occur in sub-basin 3 and approximately 60 percent would
occur in sub-basin 4. Although no development would occur in sub-basin 7 under
the CR Modified scheme, impacts could potentially occur in this sub-basin from -.
increased flow upstream in sub-basin 3. For the Winged Foot development, sub-
basin 6 would be affected. Sub-basin 6 is within the Sheldrake Watershed upstream
of the I-95 culvert. (Sub-basins 8 and 9 would also be affected by the Winged Foot
development but they are outside of the Sheldrake Watershed. Hence, development
in 8 and 9 would impact the Village but not the Town).
• Peak Runoff Flow: For each sub-basin affected by the proposed development, a
series of runoff flows was estimated for the 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100-year storms. The
impacts are highest in the more frequent storms (5-year) and lowest in the less
frequent storms (100-year). Larger storms tend to saturate soils to a degree
whereby unpaved areas contribute to runoff almost as much as paved areas.
Therefore, the increase in runoff due to imperviousness is less noticeable for the
100-year storms.
Bonnie Briar: Since the increase in impervious surfaces in sub-basin 3 is relatively
small in comparison to the total sub-basin area, the runoff curve number remains
unaffected. No development is planned for sub-basin 7 under the CR Modifed
scheme. Therefore, less than 1 percent increase in peak runoff flow over existing
conditions is projected within sub-basins 3 and 7. Any small increase in peak flow
in sub-basin 7 would be a direct result of peak flow increase in sub-basin 3 which is
upstream.
Within sub-basin 4, the increase in imperviousness results in an increase in the
runoff curve number similar to the increase experienced under the CR Townhouse
development scheme. (See Table A-1 in Appendix A). Within sub-basin 4, a 5
percent increase in peak flow would be experienced during a 5-year storm and a 3
percent increase during a 100-year storm. (See Table A-2 in Appendix A).
Winged Foot: For the Winged Foot development, an increase in the runoff curve
number is projected for sub-basin 6 similar to the increase under the CR Townhouse
development scheme. Within sub-basin 6, a 5 percent increase in peak runoff is
projected during a 5-year storm and a 3 percent increase during a 100-year storm.
�-- (See Table A-2 in Appendix A).
Overall: Individual sub-basin runoff flows peak at different times in the Watershed.
-- This routing of sub-basin flows through the drainage area results in a dampening of
peak runoff flows in the lower reaches of the Watershed. Therefore, the overall
peak flow increase from development (under Modified CR) of both Bonnie Briar
•.. and Winged Foot properties estimated for the lower Sheldrake River near the 1-95
crossing is 1 percent for the 5-year storm and 0.6 percent for the 100-year storm.
These overall peak flow estimates are based on hydrologic modeling results
performed for the CR Townhouse development scheme. (See Table A-3 in
Appendix A).
•
• Flood Plain Elevations: Water surface elevations corresponding to the peak runoff
flows from the developed sub-basins are determined for the series of five storm
frequencies. Water surface profile results based on hydrologic modeling of the
Watershed, show variations in flood elevation increases along the Sheldrake River.
Since flood elevations are also dependent on stream geometry which constantly
varies, higher runoff flows do not necessarily correspond to higher flood elevations.
Bonnie Briar: Within sub-basin 3, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of
0.04 feet is projected during the 50-year storm along the East Branch where the
stream parallels Fenimore Road between Cornell Street and Winding Brook Drive.
Within sub-basin 4, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of 0.05 feet is
projected during the 5-year storm at two different locations near the confluence of
the East Branch with the Sheldrake River. Within sub-basin 7, a maximum increase
in flood plain elevation of 0.10 feet is projected during the 5-year and 100-year
storms at two locations; along the East Branch where the stream parallels Ridgeway
Road and along the East Branch between Hilltop Road and York Road. (See Table
A-4 in Appendix A).
Winged Foot: Within sub-basin 6, a maximum increase in flood plain elevation of
0.09 feet is projected during the 100-year storm along the East Tributary near Salem
Drive.
• Flooding: The increase in water surface elevation (0.1 feet or less) due to the
proposed development scheme (CR Modified), has no observable effect on the
existing flood plain area. The increase along the river sections within each sub-basin
does not affect any additional dwellings. As a result of the proposed Modified CR
development, we do not project any additional houses to be flooded in the Town of
Mamaroneck along the Sheldrake River. However, those houses that are presently
being flooded could experience increased flooding up to 0.1 feet during the 5-year
and 100-year storms. The number of dwellings within the flood plain areass for the
developed conditions is the same as the number of dwellings which are being flooded
under existing conditions. (For the extent of flooded areas, refer to Appendix 5-5
in the DGEIS).
However,localized flooding within the developed area itself or in areas immediately
adjacent to the property may be a concern during and after construction. This can
happen for instance when existing culvert and storm drains are not adequate for
increased runoff flow.
• • Wetlands: Under the proposed development scheme, the low lying area along the
Sheldrake River in the Bonnie Briar property would be completely preserved. The
existing wetlands are also preserved. Therefore no increase in flood flows due to
encroachment upon these areas is expected under this development alternative.
• Water Quality: The Sheldrake River and its tributaries are classified"C"waters and
�.. must meet the corresponding standards for fecal coliform, pH, dissolved solids, and
dissolved oxygen. Although no detailed analysis of the water quality aspects was
performed for the DGEIS, a minimal degree of water quality degradation is
expected under the proposed development because this alternative results in a small
increase in road surface area. Less than 5 percent of the Bonnie Briar property is
intended to be paved for roads. Increased road surface area typically results in
•
increased dissolved oxygen demands, pH and heavy metals in the drainage system.
• Mitigation Measures: The properties should be developed with storm water
controls in mind (i.e., properly sized culverts, storm drains and retention ponds) to
" reduce peak runoff flows to the drainage system. Increase in runoff is partially
• - mitigated by the protected large wooded areas interspersed throughout the
development which can absorb runoff and minimize potential flooding both on and
off site. Although an increase in runoff of suspended solids on the property is
expected, the water quality degradation in the receiving streams can be minimized
by providing detention ponds to retain the storm water runoff. The class "C"
designation for the Sheldrake River is expected to continue.
•
2. Impacts on the Village of Mamaroneck
•
Impacts in the Village, downstream of the Sheldrake River Watershed above the I-95
culvert, were not determined by detailed hydrologic computer modeling. For the two sub-
- basins in the Winged Foot property which lie outside the Sheldrake Watershed, a similar
but simplified "desktop" methodology was used to determine peak runoff flows. The
methodology developed by the SCS (TR-55 Method) uses runoff curve numbers (CN) and
times of concentration to estimate peak runoff flow. Both CN values and times of
concentration were determined based on the assumption that a corresponding Modified CR
development for the Winged Foot property would be most similar to R30 Townhouse
development for this area. Cummulative impacts in the Village were determined by adding
impacts in the Town (determined from modeling) and impacts from sub-basins 8 and 9
(determined from SCS TR-55 method). The individual impacts from sub-basins 8 and 9
added to the impacts from the Town, do not consider dampening of peak flows which
normally occurs during a storm event as individual flows reach a river at different times.
The estimated cummulative impacts in the Village are therefore somewhat conservative
since they assume that all flows reach the river simultaneously.
• Affected Sub-basins: Under the proposed development scheme, sub-basins 3, 4 and
7 draining to the Sheldrake River would be affected by the Bonnie Briar develop-
ment. Sub-basin 6, also draining to the Sheldrake River, would be affected by the
Winged Foot development. Additionally, sub-basins 8 and 9 draining to the
Mamaroneck River would be affected by the Winged Foot development. Because
the Sheldrake River is tributary to the Mamaroneck River, development upstream
in sub-basins 3, 4, 6 and 7 would not only potentially impact the Town but also the
Village of Mamaroneck. Impacts in the Village will not only include the peak flow
• increases from sub-basins 3,4, 6 and 7 (in the Town),but will also include peak flow
increases from sub-basin 8 and 9 as discussed below.
• Peak Runoff Flow: For sub-basins 8 and 9 the proposed Alternative B development
for the Winged Foot property was assumed to be similar to the CR Townhouse
•_ development scheme. A series of runoff flows was simulated for the 5, 10, 25, 50,
and 100-year storms. The impacts are highest in the more frequent storms (5-year)
and lowest in the less frequent storms (100-year). Larger storms tend to saturate
_ soils to a degree whereby unpaved areas contribute to runoff almost as much as
paved areas. Therefore, the increase in runoff due to imperviousness is less
• noticeable for the 100-year storms.
•
The percentage of sub-basin area proposed for development in 8 and 9 is relatively
larger than for other affected sub-basins because of the drainage area delineation.
The increase in impervious surface area in sub-basins 8 and 9 due to development
is approximately 10 percent compared to 3 percent or less for sub-basins 3, 4, and
• 6. Therefore, the individual peak flow increases within sub-basins 8 and 9 is much
higher than in sub-basins 3, 4, and 6 which have a smaller percentage of the sub-
basin area being developed.
The runoff curve numbers for sub-basins 8 and 9 increase over existing conditions.
(See Table B-1 in Appendix B). Within sub-basin 8, a 33 percent increase in peak
flow would be experienced during a 5-year storm and a 20 percent increase during
a 100-year storm. Within sub-basin 9, a 23 percent increase in peak flow would be
experienced during a 5-year storm and a 14 percent increase would be experienced
during a 100-year storm. These projected increases do not take into consideration
any mitigation measures. (See Table B-2 in Appendix B).
Individual sub-basin runoff flows peak at different times in the Watershed. This
routing of sub-basin flows through the drainage area results in a dampening of peak
runoff flows in the lower reaches of the Watershed. For sub-basins 8 and 9,
hydrologic modeling was not performed and therefore dampening effects were not
determined. The overall peak flow increase from development of both Bonnie Briar
and Winged Foot properties(under CR Modified)is determined for a location along
the Mamaroneck River in the Village at a gaging station near the Conrail Line. The
overall peak flow increase in the Village is estimated to be 1.2 percent during a 5-
year storm and 0.9 percent during a 100-year storm. These peak flow estimates are
slightly conservative due to the fact that some dampening of sub-basin 8 and 9 flows
will occur which was not accounted for. Peak flows for sub-basins 3, 4, 6, and 7 were
determined by hydrologic modeling which includes dampening effects, while peak
flows for sub-basins 8 and 9 are determined using SCS TR-55 methodology which
does not include dampening effects. (See Table B-3 in Appendix B).
• Mitigation Measures: The properties should be developed with storm water controls
in mind (i.e., properly sized culverts, storm drains and retention ponds) to reduce
peak runoff flows to the drainage system. Increase in runoff is partially mitigated by
the protected large wooded areas interspersed throughout the development which
can absorb runoff and minimize potential flooding both on and off site. Although
an increase in runoff of suspended solids on the property is expected, the water
quality degradation in the receiving streams can be minimized by providing
detention ponds to retain the storm water runoff. The class"C"classification for the
River is not expected to change.

r SUMMARY OF IMPACTS DUE TO DEVELOPMENT
ASSUMPTIONS:
• • Impacts in subbasins 3, 4, and 7 are for Bonnie Briar only. Assumed that
development in Winged Foot area(subbasins 6, 8, and 9) under Alternatives
A, B, C, and Modifed CR would be most similar to one of the following:
CR Townhouse,R30 Townhouse,CR Detached,or R30 Detached. Selection
was based on similarities in subbasin impervious areas and resulting CN
values. (See Table A-1).
• Impacts in the Town of Mamaroneck due to development of Bonnie Briar
and Winged Foot properties was determined by flow increase in the
Sheldrake River at the I-95 crossing. Impacts in the Village of Mamaroneck
due to the developments was determined by flow increase in the Mamarone-
ck River at the gaging station near the Conrail Line in the Village.
• Peak flow increases for sub-basins 3, 4, 6, and 7 (within Sheldrake Water-
shed) were determined through hydrologic modeling. Peak flow increases
for sub-basins 8 and 9 were determined by SCS TR-55 methodology.
Impacts in the Town will tend to be slightly more conservative(greater) than
41/ impacts in the Village since routing of sub-basins 8 and 9 and dampening of
flows at downstream locations in the watershed are not considered in the
TR-55 method.
• Impacts for CR Townhouse, R30 Townhouse, CR Detached, and R30
• Detached obtained through use of hydrologic models.
• Impacts for Alternatives A, B, C, and Modified CR obtained by comparing
runoff curve numbers to modeled development scenarios and interpolating
model results.
• - Alternative A results between CR Detached and R30 Detached
- Alternative B results similar to R30 Townhouse
. - Alternative C results between CR Detached and R30 Detached
- Modified CR results similar to CR Townhouse
