Abstract
The Village of Tequesta typifies an older storm water system. The infrastructure for the system has not kept up with development within the community. The design was for the conditions at the time of initial development. The levels of services provided are pertinent to establishing a direction and long term goals under current conditions. The existing seven and a half miles of conduit was modeled for a 25 year 24 hour storm. The rainfall amount simulated for the Tequesta area is 10.48 inches within a tidal area. The effects of the tide and the conditions of the conduit system lead to a realization that surface drainage is deeply affected by the tidal ranges associated with storm events.
