1.2'5 <br /> Ion <br /> o rT3h Lcrn Qunoll <br /> Elevations on The Meadowlands site range from 670 feet above sea level along the eastern <br /> property line to 580 feet along the western property line. This is an elevation drop of ninety <br /> feet from east to west. <br /> The major drainage feature is a swale extending from east to west through the site, <br /> interrupted only by the existing lake. A stream flows from the lake to the western property line, <br /> then turns northward to drain eventually into the Eno River. <br /> Approximately sixty percent of the site drains into the lake: this acts as a retention area, <br /> collecting stormwater runoff and releasing it gradually downstream. <br /> NAe <br /> eadowilands <br /> 18 <br />
