Additional Nitrate Loading Estimate �+ <br /> Project Number E05174A � g <br /> SKS Enterprises <br /> 23709 E. Brandt Road, Lodi, CA <br /> l <br /> �Y <br /> � I <br /> 70 yards/day x 365 days/year= 25,550 yards/year <br /> 25,550 yards/year x 15.07 lbs N/yard = 385,039 lbs N per year from compost <br /> Initially 112 will be removed off site (sold or given away), later 100%will be hauled off site (sold or given away). <br /> 385,039 lbs N/year x 50% = 192,519 lbs N/,year potential compost applied to land <br /> 192,519 lbs N/year(maxumium potential applied to land from 6 bird houses) s <br /> —or—286 lbs N per acre per year(192,519 lbs N 1673.81 acres) <br /> --or--32,087 lbs N per year per bird house(192,519 lbs N 16 houses) <br /> --or--48 lbs N per acre per bird house per year(286 lbs N per year per acre 16 bird houses) <br /> Maximum Nitrate Loading Calculation Per Gross Acre Basis <br /> 277 lbs N per year from septic system ` <br /> 2,681 lbs N per year from rain fall <br /> 192,519 lbs N per year from 50% land application of compost <br /> r <br /> 195,477 lbs N per year(50% of compost, septic, and rain) <br /> Assume 25% loss due to natural soil processes <br /> 146,608 lbs N per year(195,477 lbs N perlyear x 0.75) <br /> 218 lbs N per year per acre(146,608 lbs N per year 1673.81 acres) <br /> i <br /> Please note that not all 673.81 acres will be,suitable for the applicaton of compost. . <br /> Additional reductions of nitrogen may occurifrom uptake of grasses. Grasses with proper care may uptake from 100 to 300 lbs N/acre per year. <br />
