LWI Region 5 Mermentau Headwaters - Bayou Nezpique at Interstate 10 near Jennings HEC-HMS Model: Historic Event scaled to 500-Year Design Storm

This watershed simulation models a 500-year design storm for the KCDA Bayou Nezpique at Interstate 10 near Jennings (MH_BNz1_06_UG). The August 2016 historical tropical storm scaled by a factor of 2.60 to represent the 500-year 24-hour design storm precipitation volume was used as the meteorological input to the HMS model. Results of this simulation are applied as inputs to the LWI Region 5 Mermentau Headwaters HEC-RAS Model 500-year design storm simulation over MH_BNz1_06_UG. Basin: B_CalibratedBase - Tc, None. Meteorology: NZ06UG_500YR_AUG2016_SF2.6V2, None. None. HMS 4.12
