Estimate the runoff from 140 mm of rainfall on a 350-ha watershed. The land use is open with a grass cover before urbanization. The soil is 45% group B and 55% group C. The curve numbers for open land with grass cover are 69 for Group B and 79 for Group C. After urbanization, the surface runoff is reduced by 100 mm. How much additional runoff is caused by urbanization?
