    It is required to design surface drainage for a new agricultural farm to drain out irrigation tail-water and seasonal rainfall runoff. The maximum rainfall intensity at the site in 30 years record is 38 mm/h. The tertiary drain would have to carry runoff from 6.0 ha land. The secondary drain would have to carry thrice of tertiary, and the main drain to carry discharge of five secondary drains (of similar flow). Determine the design discharge capacity of the (i) tertiary, (ii) secondary, and (iii) main drain.
