ATTN:
Mr. Jack Murphy
Director, Department of Public Works & Engineering
Subject:
Camp Angehele Road - McLeod Pond Sedimentation
TE Proposal Number P99-148
Dear Mr. Murphy:
W.R. Toole Engineers, Inc. appreciates the opportunity to propose
our professional services for the McLeod Pond - Camp Angehele
Road sedimentation study and remediation design.
PROJECT SCOPE:
Camp Angehele Road is an approximately 25-ft. wide, unimproved
roadway located 0.5 mile west of US Hwy. 25, off Hepzibah -
McBean Road, in Richmond County. The 2400-ft. long road, which
runs east to west, consists of a sand - clay surface with slopes
ranging from 8.5% - 10%. An exposed earth bank ranging from 1-
ft. to 8-ft. in height characterizes the north shoulder of the road.
The south shoulder consists of exposed banks ranging from 1-ft. to
5-ft. in height. The exposed banks taper down into a fill condition
where existing culverts cross Camp Angehele Road. Dual 36"
corrugated metal pipe culverts allow surface water flow from a
beaver pond on the north side of the road to the headwaters of
McLeod Pond on the south side of the road. The road continues
west from the culverts approximately 700-ft. where it terminates.
Based on Richmond County GIS information, Camp Angehele
Road drops more than 100-ft. in elevation from Hepzibah -
McBean Road to the culvert crossing. The road elevation then
increases approximately 50-ft, to the point where Camp Angehele
Road terminates.

(Fig. 1) - Eroded roadside banks near start of Camp Angehele
Road.
The severe road grade combined with its unimproved condition
make Camp Angehele Road prone to erosion. These conditions
have created a siltation problem in the McLeod Pond. Surface
water run-off has transported sediment from Camp Angehele Road
to the pond. Rip-Rap check dams appear to have existed along
each shoulder of Camp Angehele Road, but have failed to
eliminate the sediment from entering the pond. A previous
investigation by James G. Swift & Associates, dated July 30, 1998,
also noted that sediment is entering the pond through an
unimproved drive serving the McLeod clubhouse. This drive runs
southwest from Camp Angehele Road for approximately 1800-ft.
and ends at the clubhouse.
Various options have been prescribed as solutions for the siltation
of McLeod Pond. One option is to stabilize Camp Angehele Road
and reestablish roadside ditch sections. Rip-Rap check dams and
erosion control. mattresses would aid in the stabilization of the
adjacent shoulder areas. Lime or soil-cement could be used as
stabilization agents for the road. A second option would require
the construction of sediment basins along Camp Angehele Road,
thereby providing areas for sediment to settle out prior to entering
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
McLeod Pond. This option would require the removal of sediment
from the basins on a eriodic basis.
(Fig. 2) - Steep gradient along road toward McLeod Pond.
To determine the most practical solution, a hydrologic study of the
area is proposed. Along with a topographical survey, the study
would provide a basis for engineering design.
SURVEYING SERVICES:
Surveying services will include a ground run topographical survey
of approximately 6.0 acres located around the existing dual
culverts, extending from the headwaters of the McLeod Pond to
the existing beaver dam located north of the subject road. In
addition to the topographical survey, centerline cross sections of
Camp Angehele Road will be performed every 1 DO-ft. for the
length of the road. The data will be collected using data collection
equipment and translated into digital format for the preparation of a
base map.
ENGINEERING SERVICES:
Upon completion of the survey, Toole Engineers will initiate a
hydrologic study. The study will entail the examination of
hydrologic components under current conditions, such as
topography and soil types. By performing the hydrologic study,

I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
W.R. Toole Engineers will better understand what characteristics
of this area are contributing to the siltation of the McLeod Pond
and what steps are necessary to prevent the reoccurrence of this
problem.
(Fig. 3) - West end of Camp Angehele Road looking toward
McLeod Pond location.
Once all data is gathered and analyzed, Toole Engineers will
present to Augusta-Richmond County a conceptual design,
recommended solutions, and preliminary cost estimate for the
McLeod Pond sedimentation project.
Upon receiving approval of the concept from Augusta-Richmond
County, Toole Engineers will prepare construction documents
reflecting improvements to Camp Angehele Road and surrounding
property. These documents will be prepared in accordance to
Augusta-Richmond County regulations. Once completed, the
construction documents will be submitted to Augusta-Richmond
County Public Works for final approval. Included in these
documents will be an outline of anticipated construction costs.
The fees associated with the above mentioned tasks are as

Based on visual reconnaissance, existing soil and vegetative
characteristics in the vicinity of the culverts are indicative of
wetlands. All possible alternatives will be explored prior to
impacting a wetland. In the event impacting a wetland becomes
unavoidable, Toole Engineers will contact Augusta-Richmond
County to discuss the process for obtaining a permit allowing
construction within a wetland. Should wetland permitting be
