4.18 MAYNOOTH

4.18.1 General Hydraulic Model Information

(1) Introduction:

The Eastern CFRAM Flood Risk Review (IBE0600Rp0001_Flood Risk Review) highlighted Maynooth in the Liffey catchment as an Area for Further Assessment for fluvial flooding based on a review of historic flooding and the extents of flood risk determined during the PFRA.

The Maynooth model represents the portion of the Rye Water, a large tributary of the Liffey, where it passes through the Maynooth AFA. The model also represents the main tributary of the Rye Water, the and a number of tributaries that flow into the Lyreen through Maynooth. The total catchment represented by the model is 195 km2 with 88 km2 of the catchment area made up by the Lyreen which joins the Rye Water just north of the town.

Both the Rye Water and the Lyreen are gauged within the model extents. The data available for flood flow estimation at both gauges is of a similar quality and duration with both gauges having been installed in 2001 and operated by the EPA since. The Anne's Bridge gauging station (09048 – EPA) is located at the upstream extents of the model on the Rye Water. The gauging station stage discharge rating relationship 3 is heavily extrapolated at the FSU estimated Qmed value based on catchment descriptors of 8.2 m /s. Due to the high uncertainty in the rating at flood flows and the short record length (10 complete years AMAX 3 data with some gaps) there is low confidence in the Qmed value of 22.9 m /s derived from the gauging station record. A catchment run-off (NAM) model has been developed of the gauged catchment and calibrated against the low to mid range continuous flow trace at the Anne's Bridge gauging station using gauge adjusted radar based hourly rainfall sums for the catchment from 2001 to 2010. Using the adjusted radar based rainfall sums and observed rainfall sums from surrounding rain gauges a continuous flow trace was simulated for the period 1950 to 2010. An AMAX series was extracted from the continuous flow 3 trace and the simulated Qmed calculated to be 17.0 m /s.

The Lyreen is gauged at its downstream reach, approximately 0.5km upstream of its confluence with the Rye Water at Maynooth (09049 – EPA). Similar to the Anne's Bridge gauging station the stage discharge rating relationship is heavily extrapolated at the FSU estimated Qmed value based on catchment descriptors of 10.0 m3/s. Due to the high uncertainty in the rating at flood flows and the short record length 3 (10 complete years AMAX data with some gaps) there is low confidence in the Qmed value of 25.8 m /s derived from the gauging station record. A catchment run-off (NAM) model has been developed of the gauged catchment and calibrated against the low to mid range continuous flow trace at the Maynooth gauging station using gauge adjusted radar based hourly rainfall sums for the catchment from 2001 to 2010. Using the adjusted radar based rainfall sums and observed rainfall sums from surrounding rain gauges a continuous flow trace was simulated for the period 1964 to 2010. An AMAX series was extracted

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-1 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

3 from the continuous flow trace and the simulated Qmed calculated to be 12.4 m /s.

Although both simulated Qmed values are affected by any uncertainty in the observed flow record at the gauging station (through calibration of the NAM model) they are considered improved estimates of Qmed at the gauging stations due to the longer record length, the quality of the rainfall and catchment data and the availability of the flow records for calibration. There still remains however a striking difference between the simulated values and those derived from the catchment descriptor based FSU approach, ranging between 20% and 110%, and it still remains a possibility that the poor record (and potentially grossly overestimating rating curves) has skewed the simulation despite the best efforts to focus the calibration on low to mid range flows. It is worth noting though that at the gauging station on the Rye Water downstream at

(09001 – OPW) the difference between the observed Qmed and the Qmed derived from catchment descriptors is approximately 35%. Considering the quality of the data at this station it can be considered that there is definitely an underestimation using the FSU catchment descriptor based equation when considering the Rye Water catchment and it is possible that the error is most pronounced upstream of the Anne's Bridge gauging station (09048).

No gauging station rating reviews were proposed for these stations and as such it was considered prudent that both of these simulated Qmed values were reviewed at hydraulic model calibration stage. The comparison of the calibrated model Q-h relationship to the extrapolated rating curve at both stations would indicate that the existing rating curves overestimate the Qmed value. This therefore provides some validation for the simulated Qmed value from the rainfall runoff (NAM) models.

All watercourses in this model have been identified as HPW except the middle segment of the Ballybrack/ Roestown tributary between cross-sections 09ROES00425 at chainage 2391 and 09ROES00109 at chainage 5525. A number of areas within the Rye Water and Lyreen catchments are relatively flat and were considered to have potential for complex flood mechanisms, so it was decided to model all watercourses as 1D-2D using the MIKE suite of software where LiDAR data was available. As a result, approximately 500m of watercourse at the upstream extent of the Ballybrack/ Roestown tributary was modelled as 1D only as LiDAR data was not available in this area. The water level was not found to reach the bank markers in this location, so this approach was considered to be appropriate.

The original survey data received for section 09LYRE00041W showed that the lowest point of the weir was at the right bank and had a crest level of 46.831mOD Malin. Photos of the structure at low flow suggested it was a V-shaped structure and the records of EPA who operate the station state that the lowest point of the crest is 46.691mOD Malin. A request was therefore made to have this section re-surveyed, and revised data was delivered on 15/03/2013 which stated that the invert level of the weir crest was 46.685mOD Malin.

A similar issue was experienced at the Anne's Bridge gauging station (09048) where the original survey data received showed the lowest point of the weir crest 09RYEW00978W at the right bank and at a level of 50.470mOD Malin. This was in contrast to photos suggesting the structure was V-shaped and EPA records which state the lowest point of the crest is 50.259mOD Malin. This section was also re-surveyed and revised data was delivered on 15/03/2013 which stated that the invert level of the weir crest was 50.206mOD Malin.

The 2D domain was derived using Lidar data as described in section 2.2.2, and no localised post- processing of this data was carried out.

Number of Weirs: 11

On the Lyreen River, the inverted siphon culvert 09LYRE00314I doesn't have sufficient capacity to convey flow during flood events of 10% AEP or greater, resulting in widespread out-of-bank flooding and ponding upstream of the culvert inlet. Refer to Appendix A.3 for further discussion on the complex hydraulic effect of this structure. The preliminary report review "Lyreen River Flood Relief Scheme" states that an underwater video survey of this structure was undertaken in 2001. A number of farm posts were lodged in the culvert and a barrel or concrete pipe could be seen at one location. There were also air pockets in the soffit, however the culvert was reported to be relatively free of silt. It is not know what the current condition of the structure is. Note the inlet is submerged in Figure 4.18.12. No surveyed cross-section was taken at the upstream face of this structure, so the location of the downstream face 09LYRE00311J is shown on Figure 4.18.6.

On the Ballybrack/ Roestown tributary, culvert 09ROES00281I and bridge 09ROES00228D do not have sufficient capacity to convey flow during flood events of 10% AEP or greater, resulting in flooding in the Laragh area which affects roads and properties.

On the Roosk watercourse, bridge 09ROOS00203D restricts flow and causes out-of-bank flooding during design runs of 1% AEP or greater. This flooding affects agricultural land, local roads and a small number of properties.

On the Roosk watercourse, culvert 09ROOS00029I becomes surcharged during design runs of 0.1% AEP, resulting in the wall defence on both sides of the watercourse upstream being overtopped. This flooding affects the road at Parson Street, approximately 15-20 properties and a sports ground.

of 10% AEP or greater. A total of 9 cross-sections were surveyed between the upstream extent of the lake at Carton Bridge (09RYEW00723D at chainage 12061) and weir 09RYEW00628W downstream. Given the relatively high resolution of cross-sections, it was considered appropriate to model the lake as part of the Rye Water 1D branch. Whilst a higher level of detail could be gained from undertaking a full bathymetric survey of the lake this process, which involves interpolation between cross-sections, is a suitable methodology for representing the hydraulic behaviour of the lake.

It should also be noted that the lake was assumed to be full at the start of the model simulation, based on conditions where all watercourses in the model were set to baseflow.

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-19 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

Note that Anne's Bridge Gauging station 09048 (adopted as the upstream limit point for this model) is located at model chainage 9491 on the Rye Water. However, in line with standard modelling practice approximately 2.5km of additional surveyed watercourse upstream of this point has been incorporated into the model to act as a 'warm-up' area. The inflow hydrograph for HEP 09048_RPS has therefore been input at model chainage 6978 as this is the upstream model limit of the Rye Water branch. This has no influence on model results as the 'warm- up' area is not mapped or reported, and model flows at HEP 09048_RPS were checked to ensure no loss of flow had occurred.

In order to achieve the correct frequency conditions at the downstream checkpoint (09_1260_4_RPS), the input hydrograph timings were altered, as per guidance in FSU WP3.4. Initial model runs considered the hydrograph peaks from the Rye Water and Lyreen catchments occurring at the same time e.g. a 1% AEP flood event in both catchments coinciding. These conditions resulted in the model flow at the downstream checkpoint 09_1260_4_RPS being considerably higher than the hydrological estimate as the flood frequency of this joint condition is considerably more extreme than 1% AEP. The timing of the Rye Water and Lyreen catchment inputs were therefore adjusted in order to create accurate flood frequency conditions at the downstream checkpoint based on the joint probability of the two catchments. This involved delaying every input except the upstream and lateral inflows to the Rye Water (09049_RPS and lateral inflow between 09049_RPS & 09_1260_4_RPS). Due to the nature of the flood frequency conditions between the Rye Water and Lyreen catchments, the time the Lyreen catchment inputs were delayed for increased as the flood frequency decreased.

Figure 4.18.20 provides an example of the associated upstream hydrographs on the Rye Water and Lyreen River at HEPs 09048_RPS and 09_1452_2_RPS respectively during a 1% AEP design run.

4.18.5 Hydraulic Model Calibration and Verification

(1) Key Historical Floods (from IBE0600Rp0008_HA09 Inception Report_F02 unless otherwise specified):

Aug 2008. The historical data indicated that flooding occurred in Co. in August 2008 as a result of heavy and prolonged rainfall. No details were available relating to any damage caused in Maynooth as a result of the August 2008 flood event. The daily mean flow rate of the River Lyreen (as per http://hydronet.epa.ie) was measured to be 49m3/s at Maynooth Hydrometric Station, and is also the maximum daily mean flow rate on record for the River Lyreen at this location. This measurement should be treated with caution however, as this is well beyond the useable rating for this station.

An analysis of significant flood events at gauging stations 09048 and 09049 was undertaken as part of the CFRAM study and a summary of the results can be found in IBE0600Rp0008_HA09 Inception Report_F02 Section 4.4.3. The flood event in August 2008 was estimated at approximately 5-6.67% AEP at 09048 Anne's Bridge, and approximately 6.67-10% AEP at 09049 Maynooth.

Design rainfall frequency was estimated using the FSU Depth Duration Frequency model (FSU WP 1.2 ‘Estimation of Point Rainfall Frequencies’). The closest rainfall gauge with data available for this event is Leixlip (Gen.Stn) daily station (approximately 6km downstream of the AFA). Recordings from this station indicate that 87.4mm of rain fell on the 9th August 2008, equating to a rainfall event of approximately 1.2% AEP. As this gauge is not located within the AFA extents and only has a data recording resolution of 24 hours, this rainfall frequency should be treated with caution. It does however provide support for the estimated flood event frequency of 5-10% AEP derived from the analyses of significant flood events at gauging stations 09048 and 09049. It should also be noted that a total of 151.8mm of rain was recorded between the 9-16th August, and it can be seen from gauge records that multiple significant events occurred during this period.

The maximum observed water level at gauging station 09049 Maynooth on the Lyreen River during the flood event of August 2008 equated to 48.279mOD Malin according to gauge records. The maximum modelled water levels measured at chainage 3896 on the Lyreen River (representing gauging station 09049) during the 10% and 1% AEP design runs were 48.133mOD Malin and 48.514mOD Malin respectively. The observed hydrograph from this event is plotted in Figure 4.18.27, along with the modelled hydrographs from the 10% and 1% AEP design runs. The model shows good calibration at this point, as the flood event frequency was estimated at approximately 6.67-10% AEP from gauge records and the observed peak water level is between the 10% and 1% AEP design run peak water levels. It can be seen from Figure 4.18.27 that the observed and

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-25 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

modelled hydrographs are similar in terms of shape and time-to-peak, providing further verification for the model results.

Figure 4.18.27: Observed and modelled hydrographs at gauging station 09049 Maynooth

The maximum observed water level at gauging station 09048 Anne's Bridge on the Rye Water during the flood event of August 2008 equated to 51.901mOD Malin. The maximum modelled water levels measured at chainage 9482 on the Rye Water (representing gauging station 09048) during the 10% and 1% AEP design runs were 51.940mOD Malin and 52.124mOD Malin respectively. The observed hydrograph from this event is plotted in Figure 4.18.28, along with the modelled hydrographs from the 10% and 1% AEP design runs. The AEP of this flood event was originally estimated at approximately 5-6.67%, so the levels shown in the model are slightly high. Confidence in the estimated flood frequency is low however and the event may be overestimated due to the relatively short period of data available. It is reasonable to expect that the AEP of this flood event may have been approximately 10% on the Rye Water catchment, as displayed by the model, so reasonable model verification has been achieved. It can also be seen from Figure 4.18.28 that the observed and modelled hydrographs are similar in terms of shape and time-to- peak, providing further verification for the model results.

Nov 2002. Widespread flooding occurred in mid November 2002 as a result of heavy and prolonged rainfall. Flooding was severe in some parts as the catchments were already somewhat saturated, following high levels of rainfall in October and early November. The total rainfall depth measured at Airport during this event was 87mm, while 72mm of rainfall was recorded at Casement.

Maynooth experienced flooding in many parts as a result of the heavy rainfall in November 2002. A ditch on Moyglare Road was blocked and flooded, as was a pipe on Laurence's Avenue. Some roads flooded including the N4/M4, Moyglare Road, Road, Road and Laurence's Avenue. Sandbags were distributed throughout the area thereby reducing the damage caused to houses.

The analysis of significant flood events at gauging stations 09048 and 09049 estimated the flood event in November 2002 at approximately 50% AEP at both locations. There is considerable uncertainty in these values however as both recorders failed during this event, so the peak water level and flow was not captured. Data from these gauging stations was therefore not used for model calibration or verification for this event.

Design rainfall frequency was estimated using the closest rainfall gauge with data available for this event. This was Leixlip (Gen.Stn) daily station (approximately 6km downstream of

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-27 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

the AFA). Recordings from this station indicate that 74.0mm of rain fell between the 13-14th November 2002, equating to a rainfall event of approximately 6-7.5% AEP.

The reports of flooding at the Moyglare Road, Dunboyne Road and Laurence's Avenue all refer to flooding from pluvial sources, and are therefore not suitable for model calibration. Flooding occurs within the model on the Kilcock Road during design runs of 1% AEP or greater, as shown in Figure 4.18.29 below. It is unlikely that this flood event had a frequency as severe as 1% AEP, however the document which reports flooding at this location (Maynooth Area Engineer Meeting - Minutes) suggests that remedial work has been carried out further altering the validity of this event for model calibration.

Kilcock Road Flooding

Lyreen River

Figure 4.18.29: Kilcock Road Flooding

The exact location of flooding of the N4/M4 during this event is not specified. Flooding was only found to occur on the N4/M4 during model design runs of 1% AEP or greater, and this flood event is not considered to be of that magnitude. It is likely that flooding occurred on this motorway due to drainage design capacity being unable to cope with the intense rainfall associated with this event, therefore this flooding would not be represented by the model. Data from this flood event was therefore not used for model calibration or verification.

Nov 2000. Extensive flooding occurred throughout large parts of Dublin and Kildare in November 2000 as a result of heavy rainfall, high tides and strong winds.

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-28 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

The high levels of rainfall adversely affected Maynooth in November 2000 causing the , Meadowbank Stream and Lyreen River to burst their banks. The lack of capacity of the Railway Culvert on the Lyreen River caused the Treadstown Road, Railway Line (at Jackson's Bridge) and surrounding lands to flood. Lands adjacent to the Ryewater River were also flooded. Damage to houses was limited through the distribution of sandbags which were used to divert floodwaters. However, flooding did occur in Meadowbrook estate with approximately 40 houses affected and also on Parson Street where eight houses were flooded. The N4 and -Maynooth road were closed due to the floods, as were many streets in the Maynooth area and a local pumping station was also inundated by floodwaters. No details were available on return period or flows for this flood event.

Design rainfall frequency was estimated for this event in the absence of hydrometric data as both gauging stations 09048 and 09049 were installed in 2001. Leixlip (Gen.Stn) daily station (approximately 6km downstream of the AFA) recorded 102.6mm of rain between the 5-6th November 2000, equating to a rainfall event of approximately 1.3-1.7% AEP. Barrockstown daily station (approximately 3km North of the AFA) also has data available for this flood event, recording 87.8mm of rain between the 5-6th November 2000. This equated to a rainfall event of approximately 1.6-2.1% AEP.

Aerial photos from this event are available and these have been used for model verification where possible. The location of a number of photos could not be established. A comparison of model results and these photos is shown below. Overall good model verification was achieved as the flood extents seen in the photos was generally between the model 1% and 10% AEP design run extents. One notable exception to this is in the Meadowbrook area, where flooding was found to occur in the model during design runs of 1% AEP or greater. Newspaper articles suggest that the M4 motorway drains to this stream, and that this was a major factor contributing to the severe flooding in November 2000. The flooding in this area is therefore partly due to a pluvial source, so it is expected that the model flood extents would not be as severe.

The Roosk tributary that runs through the Meadowbrook area also appears to have been altered since November 2000. It can be seen in Figure 4.18.33 that new roads have been constructed in this area, and this has required the construction of culverts to accommodate these works. It is not known what consideration was made to the existing watercourse during these plans, and if any remedial works were carried out.

Parson Street, as shown in Figure 4.18.33, was reported to have flooded, with 8 adjacent properties affected. The wall adjacent to the Roosk watercourse at Parson Street was found to have a SoP of 1% AEP, so flooding in this area was only found to occur during defended design runs of 0.1% AEP. The modelled extent of the benefitting area from this

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-29 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

defence is similar to the observed flood extent from November 2000 however, as shown in Figure 4.18.34. No information is available regarding the effectiveness of this defence during this event, but it is possible that a breach may have occurred. As this information is not known, this cannot be used for model calibration, however it does provide limited qualitative support for the model results.

Jun 1993. Widespread flooding occurred across Dublin, Kildare and Wicklow as a result of prolonged rainfall beginning on Friday 11th June and lasting for over two days.

In the Maynooth area, a culvert on the Lyreen River near Jackson's Bridge (crossing under railway line and Royal Canal) lacked capacity and caused flooding of farmland both upstream and downstream of the culvert. No additional information was provided, however photographs from this event are available in the report "Lyreen River Flood Relief Scheme" displaying the extent of the flooding.

Design rainfall frequency was estimated for this event in the absence of hydrometric data (as gauging stations 09048 and 09049 were both installed in 2001). Leixlip (Gen.Stn) daily station (approximately 6km downstream of the AFA) recorded 79.8mm of rain between the 10-11th June 1993, equating to a rainfall event of approximately 4.1-5.4% AEP.

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-34 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

The quality of photographs provided for this event is poor, and quantitative calibration is not possible. The two photographs shown in Figure 4.18.37 below were originally captioned as "Flooding in fields and passageway south-west of Jackson's Bridge" and "Flooding immediately upstream of railway/canal culvert" in the "Lyreen River Flood Relief Scheme" report. Although the exact extent cannot be compared, it can be seen in Figure 4.18.35 that widespread flooding occurs in the area described even during the 10% AEP model design run, so good qualitative support for the model results has been achieved.

Figure 4.18.37: Flooding upstream of the railway/canal culvert on the Lyreen River

Nov 1965. The historical data indicated that severe flooding occurred in November 1965 following three days of torrential rain.

The historical review indicated that a number of houses were flooded in Maynooth as a result of the rainfall; however there is no indication of the exact quantity or location of such houses.

Design rainfall frequency was estimated for this event in the absence of hydrometric data (as gauging stations 09048 and 09049 were both installed in 2001). Leixlip (Gen.Stn) daily station (approximately 6km downstream of the AFA) recorded 81.7mm of rain between the 16-18th November 1965, equating to a rainfall event of approximately 6.2-7.6% AEP.

As there is no further data available relating to the flood extents and damage caused by this event, it was not considered suitable for calibration.

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-35 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

Summary of Calibration

The two hydrometric gauges within the model extent were both installed relatively recently, and therefore only have reliable ratings for low flows. An analysis of significant flood events at each of these stations was undertaken in order to quantify the flood events of August 2008 and November 2002, however these values should be treated with caution due to the low number of events available for analysis.

Data from daily rainfall stations was also used to estimate the rainfall event return period using the FSU for each historical event. Data was available at Leixlip (Gen.Stn) daily station for every flood event, and Barrockstown daily station also had data available for the November 2000 event.

Model flows were checked against the estimated flows at HEP check points where possible to ensure they were within an acceptable range. For example at HEP 09_1260_4_RPS, the estimated flow during the 1% AEP event was 65.93m3/s and the modelled flow was 66.68m3/s. Full flow tables can be found in Appendix A.3.

A mass balance check has been carried out on the model to make sure that the total volume of water entering and leaving the model at the upstream and downstream boundaries balances the quantity of water remaining in the model domain at the end of a simulation. Refer to Chapter 3.11 for details of acceptable limits. The mass error in the 1% AEP design run was found to be -1.38%, so the Maynooth model is considered to be robust and stable.

The data available for historical flood events at Maynooth was generally good, and included a significant number of aerial photographs taken shortly after the flood event in November 2000. This data was used to provide good qualitative support for the model results. The model Q-h relationship was also calibrated to the rating curves at hydrometric gauges 09048 and 09049, although it should be noted that these ratings are only valid for low flows. Overall the model is performing well for design event simulation and is supported by historic and hydrometric information.

(2) Post Public Consultation Updates:

At a draft flood mapping workshop held on 16/04/2014, Local Authorities suggested that the modelled flood outlines were representative.

All recorded comments were investigated following informal public consultation and formal S.I. public consultation periods in 2015, however no model updates were required for Final issue.

It can be seen in Figure 4.18.34 that the wall (Reference 1) offers protection to Parson Street and approximately 15-20 properties in the surrounding area. The sports ground adjacent to the Roosk tributary also benefits from this defence. This wall has a modelled SoP of 1% AEP.

(4) Gauging Stations:

There are two gauging stations within the model extent, Anne's Bridge (09048) and Maynooth (09049) as shown in Figure 4.18.39. Both stations are automatic data loggers with water level and flow data available at 15 minute intervals. Station 09048 was installed in May 2001 and station 09049 was installed in July 2001, and both stations have data available up to May 2011. Station 09048 is located on the Rye Water and the estimated flow at this point is used at the upstream extent of the model. Station 09049 is located on the Lyreen River, approximately 400m upstream of its confluence with the Rye Water.

Figure 4.18.39: Gauging Station locations within the Maynooth AFA

(a) Anne's Bridge (09048)

The rating for this gauging station is for low flows only (less than 2.5 m3/s) and is therefore uncertain for flood 3 flows. The rating is significantly less than the estimated Qmed of 16.96 m /s. The survey provides a cross-section at the gauge location - comparing the modelled Q-h relationship and the rating curve, as shown in Figure 4.18.40, it can be seen that reasonable model calibration to the existing rating curve has been achieved and the two curves are within 200 mm of each other as required in the Project Brief for HPWs. It should be noted that a Manning's n value of 0.011 at the weir was required in order to produce the Q-h relationship shown below. This value is within the realistic range for this type of section i.e. concrete lined, but is at the lower end of the range.

The rating for this gauging station is for low flows only (less than 5.2 m3/s) and is therefore uncertain for flood 3 flows. The rating is significantly less than the estimated Qmed of 12.40 m /s. There were no spot gaugings available at this station. The survey provides a cross-section at the gauge location - comparing the modelled Q- h relationship and the rating curve, as shown in Figure 4.18.41, it can be seen that reasonable model calibration to the existing rating curve has been achieved and the two curves are within 200 mm of each other as required in the Project Brief for HPWs. It should be noted that a Manning's n value of 0.011 at the weir was required in order to produce the Q-h relationship shown below. This value is within the realistic range for this type of section i.e. concrete lined, but is at the lower end of the range.

As discussed earlier, there is a drainage issue from the M4 at this location and remedial works have been carried out on this watercourse, so this information is not suitable for calibration.

'Ballycurraghan: River overflows bank after heavy rain every year' - The Ballybrack/ Roestown tributary was found to flood during 10% AEP model design runs, as shown in Figure 4.18.42. This is consistent with the data provided, so good qualitative support for the model results was achieved.

4.18.6 Hydraulic Model Assumptions, Limitations and Handover Notes

(1) Hydraulic Model Assumptions:

(a) The in-channel roughness coefficients were selected based on normal bounds using photographs delivered as part of the channel and structure survey - it is considered that the final selected values are representative.

(b) The hydrological inputs had to be edited in order to achieve the correct frequency conditions at the downstream checkpoint, as per guidance in FSU WP3.4. This is discussed further in section 4.18.3(5).

(c) The upstream face of the Railway/ Canal culvert (09RYEW00314I) could not be surveyed as there

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-41 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

was no access because of the railway line. This culvert was therefore modelled based on the downstream surveyed dimensions and it was assumed that these were representative.

(d) No information regarding the Royal Canal was provided, and as no inlet/outfall positions were recorded in the survey data it was assumed that the Royal Canal is hydraulically separate from the modelled watercourses in Maynooth. No allowance for the Canal was made in the design hydrology. It was therefore considered unrealistic to include the Royal Canal Arch of Jackson's Bridge (09ROES00012D at chainage 6497 on the Ballybrack/ Roestown tributary, as shown in Figure 4.18.35), so only the two main arches and the railway arch were included in the model. A survey drawing of this structure is shown in Figure 4.18.43.

Railway Arch Royal Canal Arch Two Main Arches

Figure 4.18.43: Survey drawing of 09ROES00012D Jackson's Bridge

(e) The bridges 09RYEW00267D and 09RYEW00266D on the Rye Water were modelled as a single structure due to their close proximity and similar characteristics. This achieved greater model stability and did not affect model results. This was also carried out with structures 09RYEW00237D and 09RYEW00236I on the Rye Water.

(f) The bridge 09MOYC00027D on Moyclare was not included in the model as this structure was not found to cause a restriction to flow during any model design run, and greater model stability was achieved through its omission.

(g) The bridge 09MILF00033D on Mill Race F was not included in the model as this structure was not found to cause a restriction to flow during any model design run, and greater model stability was achieved through its omission.

(h) The footbridge 09RYEW00629D on the Rye Water was not included in the model. An initial assessment concluded that this bridge has very little hydraulic impact upon the flow regime, and the bridge is located immediately upstream of weir 09RYEW00628W. It was not possible to integrate both structures into the model and achieve good stability, and as the weir is more critical it was decided to omit the bridge from the model.

(2) Hydraulic Model Limitations and Parameters:

(a) A grid resolution of 5 metres has been selected for the 2D domain. This cell size enables areas of interest to be modelled in sufficient detail, whilst still retaining good computational performance of the model.

IBE0600Rp0027 4.18-42 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

(b) There is a minor instability at bridge 09RYEW01011D at chainage 9185 on the Rye Water which occurs on the receding limb of the flow hydrograph. It was not possible to eradicate this instability so a review of its significance was undertaken. This instability occurs when the water level is in-bank and does not cause erroneous out-of-bank flooding. As it occurs on the receding limb of the hydrograph it does not affect the estimation of peak water levels or flows. It is also located on the 'warm-up' section of the Rye Water, and as this section of the model is not used for design flood estimation its significance is low. In addition, the mass error of the model is low, further supporting the conclusion that this instability is minor. A plot of the flow and water level hydrographs at this point during the 0.1% AEP design run is shown in Figure 4.18.44. It can be seen from this plot that the water level and discharge profiles are stable at the peak, and while the discharge flickers sharply in the range of ±20m3/s, the maximum effect this has on water level is ±100mm.

(3) Design Event Runs & Hydraulic Model Handover Notes:

(a) The Cross-section and Network files are identical for all design run simulations. The parameters within the HD parameter file are also identical.

(b) The hydrological inputs for the Lyreen catchment were delayed in every design run in order to achieve the correct flood frequency conditions at the downstream checkpoint 09_1260_4_RPS as per guidance in FSU WP3.4. Due to the nature of the flood frequency conditions between the two catchments, the time the Lyreen catchment inputs were delayed for increased as the flood frequency decreased. As a result the simulation times for each design run scenario are not identical.

(c) A hot start file has been used in the 1D model component during all design runs. This hotstart file simulates baseflow conditions in all watercourses within the Maynooth model.

(d) Global surface elevation initial conditions of 0mOD Malin in the 2D domain have been used during all design runs. As the minimum topographical level in the 2D domain is greater than 36mOD Malin, these initial conditions mean the 2D domain is fully dry at the start of the simulation.

(e) The Railway/ Canal culvert on the Lyreen River (09LYRE00314I) was found to become surcharged during design runs of 10% AEP or greater, resulting in severe flooding upstream as shown in Figure 4.18.35. This inverted siphon culvert lacks capacity, which causes both the Lyreen and Ballybrack/ Roestown channels to back-up upstream. A large area of agricultural land is affected, along with approximately 5 properties and a local road. Flood depths in this area can reach over 2.2m during design runs of 0.1% AEP and this land was found to remain flooded for approximately 3 days due to culvert 09LYRE00314I restricting flood waters from receding. The M4 motorway was also found to flood during design runs of 1% AEP or greater. The large afflux of this culvert and its impact on peak water levels upstream on the Lyreen River can be seen in Figure 4.18.53 in Appendix A.2.

Flooding was also found to occur in the Ballycurraghan and Laragh areas during 10% AEP design runs due to insufficient capacity of culverts 09ROES00281I and 09ROES00228D, as shown in Figure 4.18.42.

(h) Flooding in the Meadowbrook area was found to occur during design runs of 1% AEP or greater, as shown in Figure 4.18.47. The main cause of this flooding is insufficient capacity of culvert 09ROOS00148I, however the Roosk tributary that runs through this area is heavily culverted, so may be prone to blockage. There have also been historical issues in this area attributed to surface drainage from the M4 discharging to this watercourse, therefore exacerbating the flood extents. Up to approximately 90 properties in the Meadowbrook area were found to be at risk during the 0.1% AEP design run.

(i) Flooding was found to occur at Parson Street during design runs of 0.1% AEP as shown in Figure 4.18.34. This is due to culvert 09ROOS00029I becoming surcharged during this scenario, resulting in the wall defence on both sides of the watercourse upstream being overtopped. This flooding affects the road at Parson Street, approximately 15-20 properties and a sports ground.

(j) Considerable flooding was found to occur from the Moyclare watercourse during design runs of 10% AEP or greater, as shown in Figure 4.18.48. This flooding was found to affect local roads and agricultural land, but properties were not found to be at risk. The main cause of this flooding was insufficient capacity in structures 09MOYC00048D and 09MOYC00023I.

(k) The capacity of the Moygaddy watercourse channel was found to be insufficient to convey the 10% AEP design flow without flooding of agricultural land occurring, especially close to its confluence with the Rye Water. A local road was also found to be affected during flood events of 1% AEP or greater. No properties were found to be at risk due to flooding from this watercourse.

(l) Widespread flooding of land adjacent to the Rye Water channel was found to occur due to insufficient channel capacity. Flooding was found to occur from both banks and was most prevalent during design runs of 1% AEP or greater, but was still substantial during the 10% AEP design run as shown in Figure 4.18.50 and Figure 4.18.51. The main receptor to the flooding is agricultural land, although one local road was also found to flood. One property was found to be affected during the 10% AEP design run, and up to 4 additional properties are affected during design runs of 0.1% AEP. The weir 09RYEW00628W is a significant structure as it restricts the outflow from the lake at Carton Demesne. This restriction contributes considerably to the widespread flooding upstream. The impact this weir has on peak water levels in the lake at Carton Demesne and further upstream on the Rye Water is shown in Figure 4.18.52 in Appendix A.2.

The table above provides details of the flow in the model at every HEP intermediate check point, modelled tributary and gauging station. These flows have been compared with the hydrology flow estimation and a percentage difference provided.

There are a number of complex hydraulic effects within this model which made the process of anchoring the model flows to the hydrological estimates difficult. In order to better understand these processes and achieve better overall correlation, an additional model run comprising the 50% AEP design flows was undertaken and the results reported here. The estimated and modelled flows at every HEP were found to correlate well during the 50% AEP design run, indicating that the model is well anchored to low-flow conditions.

The estimated and modelled flows at the downstream ends of the Crewhill, Moyclare, Moygaddy and Lyreen watercourses all correlate well for all model design runs.

The table shows that the estimated and modelled flows at the downstream end of the Ballybrack/Roestown tributary correlate well during the 50% AEP design run, however during the 10% AEP design run the modelled flow is around 12% lower than the hydrological estimate. The difference between the estimated and modelled flows continues to increase as the design flow increases, with the difference around 29% during the 0.1% AEP design run. The railway/ canal inverted siphon culvert 09LYRE00314I at chainage 1204 on the Lyreen River becomes surcharged during design runs of 10% AEP or greater and causes severe out-of-bank flooding and ponding upstream of the culvert inlet as shown in Figure 4.18.45. This ponding effect backs up flow in the Ballybrack/Roestown tributary, resulting in modelled flows which are lower than the hydrological estimates. Hydraulic modelling can represent this complex hydraulic effect better than hydrological estimation, so these differences in estimated and modelled flows are considered to be acceptable, especially considering that this area has been known to flood historically. Further confirmation for this conclusion is achieved as there is good correlation during the 50% AEP design run, where the railway/ canal siphon culvert is not surcharged and the ponding effect does not influence the modelled flows.

The railway/ canal inverted siphon culvert 09LYRE00314I also has a large impact on the HEPs on the Lyreen River. The first intermediate HEP on the Lyreen River (09_1464_2_RPS) is located approximately 600m downstream of the railway/ canal culvert and shows good correlation between the estimated and modelled flows during 50% AEP and 1% AEP design runs, however the modelled flow is approximately 10% and 8% lower than the hydrological estimates during the 10% AEP and 0.1% IBE0600Rp0016 4.18-60 F03 Eastern CFRAM Study HA09 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL

AEP design runs respectively. Good correlation is shown during the 50% AEP design run as culvert 09LYRE00314I is not surcharged during this scenario and has sufficient capacity to convey the design flow. During the 10% AEP design run this culvert becomes surcharged and causes flow to back up upstream, resulting in a modelled flow lower than the hydrological estimate. During the 1% AEP design run, flood water overtops the railway and canal, equalizing pressure in the inverted siphon and improving conveyance. For this reason, the estimated and modelled flows correlate well during the 1% AEP design run. This hydraulic effect also occurs during the 0.1% AEP design run, however flow takes an alternative path along the canal during this scenario, hence resulting in a modelled flow lower than the hydrological estimate. This alternative flow path is shown in Figure 4.18.45.

The next intermediate HEP on the Lyreen River (09_1464_5_RPS) is influenced by the same hydraulic effects as 09_1464_2_RPS and correlation between estimated and design flows for each design run follows the same pattern except that good correlation is displayed during the 0.1% AEP design run at this point. This is because the flow that was diverted along the alternative route along the canal (as shown in Figure 4.18.45) rejoins Mill Race F upstream of this HEP.

HEPs 09049_RPS is located at Maynooth gauging station. Good correlation is shown during the 50% AEP and 10% AEP design runs, and the modelled flow is 16% and 19% greater than the estimated flow during the 1% AEP and 0.1% AEP design runs respectively. Overall the modelled flow was found to increase relative to the estimated flow for more extreme design runs at this point. This is because the growth curve behaviour of the Lyreen catchment in the hydraulic model was found to be steeper than the hydrological estimates. It is considered that the hydraulic model is better able to simulate the complex behaviour of this catchment system as it is influenced by hydraulic features such as the railway/ canal inverted siphon culvert, so this was deemed to be acceptable.

This growth curve behaviour was found to have a knock-on effect at HEP 09_1260_4_RPS on the Rye Water at the downstream extent of the model. The model flow was found to be approximately 11% below the estimated flow during the 50% AEP design run and approximately 9% greater than the estimated flow during the 0.1% AEP design run. The modelled flows were generally found to increase relative to the estimated flows for more extreme design runs due to the growth curve behaviour of the Lyreen catchment being steeper in the hydraulic model than the hydrological estimates, and as reported previously this was deemed to be acceptable as the hydraulic model can simulate this affect better than hydrological estimation.

The estimated and modelled flow in the Roosk tributary correlate well during all design runs except 0.1% AEP where the modelled flow is approximately 15% greater than the hydrological estimate. Flow from the Lyreen River spills onto the M4 motorway and joins the Roosk tributary during the 0.1% AEP design, so this difference was considered to be reasonable.
