As shown in the sketch below, an unconfined aquifer on a hillside into a stream. The aquifer has an average saturated thickness of 3.0m (9.8 ft), has a hydraulic conductivity of 0.30 m/day (1.0 ft/day), an effective porosity of 0.20, and a slope of 0.03. Compute the maximum seepage into the stream per Km (mi.) considering seepage is from both sides of the channel. Compute the travel time for water to flow from the ridge to the channel 300 m (984 ft).
