Nitrate Loading Study Irerracon Roque Property o Victor, California July 6, 2018 ■Terracon Project No. NA187032 Standards (2003), Crites and Tchobanoglous (1998), and EPA (1980). Table 4-2 of the text from Crites and Tchobanoglous indicates that the typical residential use rate is 70-gallons per day per bedroom. The EPA Design Manual (Table 4-6) indicates the typical use rate is 45-gallons per day per resident. Based on a review of the USGS California Water Science Center California Water Use 2010 Data, average daily domestic use per capita was estimated at 69-gallons per day. Per conversations with Mr. Rodney Estrada, the EHD recommends a residential use rate of 70-gallons per person/day. Mr. Estrada additionally indicated the EHD recommends calculating the estimated sewage flow based on the number of bedrooms per residence with an average potential occupancy of two persons per bedroom. The following table presents the proposed potential septic wastewater use for the site. The flow rates selected for the uses associated with this project are based on EHD recommendations and estimated potential occupancy of 2 persons per bedroom per day. The rates presented from the references provide general guidance but do not always reflect a match in usage. Should any of the above information provided to our office change or is inconsistent with what is stated, our office shall be contacted to make any necessary modifications to our calculations. Examination and professional judgement,and experience shall be used when selecting a reasonable flowrate. The flow rates selected for the uses associated with this project are presented on the following page. Table 2. Potential Quantity of Effluent.
