The cell will be located on the ridge crest, so that drainage from the crest.cf.the ridge (1/2 of the cell width) flows over each side of the cell.

So. we use a slope length of 100 feet.

Conclusions, The slope is safe from erosion even under the PMP for slopes

.between about 1% to 3% without any vegetative cover (0.5 to 1% for the more conservative F=3.

A Poor Grass stand will protect evan

-c steeper slopes (6% for F=3, 15% for F=1).
