Deer Waters Resort – Hydrologic Analysis

Hideout, Utah

HCF completed a hydrologic analysis to support the proposed Deer Waters Resort condominium development located on the north side of Hideout, Utah, approximately half a mile east of Jordanelle Reservoir. The analysis evaluated how stormwater runoff from the site and surrounding mountainous terrain is conveyed through existing and proposed drainage infrastructure, confirming that all off-site and on-site flows are safely routed through the development and returned to their historical discharge locations at Jordanelle Reservoir.

Industry-standard hydrologic methods were applied using Autodesk Storm and Sanitary modeling software with SCS TR-55 lag and transform methods for the 10-year storm event. NOAA Atlas 14 precipitation data and USGS Hydrologic Soil Group classifications were used with conservative assumptions throughout. The analysis confirmed that all drainage facilities, including culverts and inlets, provide adequate capacity and conform to State of Utah and local stormwater design standards.

Bitner Creek Crossing – Site Infrastructure & Bridge Design

Summit County, Utah

HCF provided full civil development services for a private 10-acre property in Summit County, Utah, including the design of a 450-foot roadway and a 20-foot span bridge crossing over Bitner Creek. The creek is designated as a FEMA Zone AE waterway with an established floodway, requiring careful hydraulic consideration and regulatory coordination throughout the design process.

HCF’s scope included water line design featuring a 10-inch hot tap and service line, multiple valves, and thrust blocks. All water system appurtenances were designed in conformance with Mountain Regional Water District and Division of Water Quality standards, as well as American Public Works Association (APWA) and American Water Works Association (AWWA) standards, ensuring full regulatory compliance for this complex multi-discipline infrastructure project.
