0 <br /> 7buildings <br /> ,the number of plumbing fixtures within the on-site Bathrooms will be used to <br /> srage daily flows (ADFs). For the nitrate loading generated from the entire fac7of18 <br /> estroom) Site Plan in Appendix B illustrates that only five buildings out of a to <br /> e Bathrooms. The following is a list of the Buildings with Bathrooms and the <br /> corresponding number of fixtures: <br /> Building G: 16 toilets, 16 lavatories; Men's/Women's(Proposed) <br /> Building I-1: 4 toilets,4 lavatories; Men's/Women's <br /> Building O: 2 toilets,2 lavatories; Men's/Women's <br /> Building N: 2 toilets,2 lavatories;Men's/Women's <br /> Building M: 2 toilets,2 lavatories;Men's/Women's <br /> TOTALS=26 toilets,26 lavatories <br /> The ADF from the entire facility, as one APN Parcel,will be based on an assumed maximum fixture <br /> usage of 2x/hr: <br /> 52 fixtures x 2 gals/use(I.5 gals flash+ 0.5 gals hand washing)= 104 gals/use x 2 uses/hr=208 gals/hr x 8 hr/workday <br /> = 1,664 gals/day x 5 days/wk= 8,320 gals/wk x 50 work weeks/yr=416,000 gals/yr. This figure will <br /> be used for the yearly wastewater generation for the nitrate loading calculations below. <br /> For the design and operational parameters for effluent disposal generated exclusively from the <br /> retrofitted Restrooms in Building G, the following quantifies the ADF from the building which has <br /> a greater number of fixtures than the other Restrooms within the facility: 16 toilets+ 16 lavatories= <br /> 32 x 2 gals/use(I.5 gals flush+0.5 gals hand washing)=64 gals/use x 1 use/hr=64 gals/hr x 8 hr(workday= 512 <br /> gals/day. This ADF figure will be used in the disposal design parameters. <br /> Wastewater Characteristics <br /> Consideration of the domestic wastewater generated from the entire facility; blackwater will <br /> originate from toilets and greywater from hand washing. There should be no high organic loading <br /> from kitchen use, etc. Additional wastewater constituents may consist of other liquids to the <br /> system, such as coffee,juices,low strength cleaning liquids,etc. No industrial or commercial <br /> chemicals, solvents, etc. should ever be introduced into the wastewater treatment system. It is <br /> imperative that low strength and low volumes of cleaners are used in the Restrooms since they can <br /> disrupt the septic tank biology. <br /> The scientific literature cites nitrogen concentrations in domestic septic effluent typically ranging <br /> from 17 mg N/L for basins, sinks, etc.to 140 mg N/L for toilet wastes. A value of 62 mg N/L is <br /> typically used for domestic calculations, as indicated in the scientific literature(See Kaplan-Septic <br /> Systems Handbook,Pg. 147),based upon a mixture of the concentrations referenced above. <br /> r ' <br /> Page -6- <br /> Chesney Consulting <br /> 'r; <br />
