• The details of the nitrate loading calculation are included in Plate 16. The results of the <br /> calculation are presented in the following table. <br /> Table 8. Result of Nitrate Loading Calculation <br /> Variable / Value Units Description <br /> N 3.70 m L-N Long-term average concentration of percolating effluent <br /> The US EPA recommended MCL for nitrate in drinking water is 10 mg/L-N. In a worst- <br /> case situation, the maximum—buildup of Otrates in the aquifer from the use of septic <br /> systems is predicted t e 3.70 mg/L.-V mg/L.-VThe result of the nitrate loading estimate is <br /> below the maximum dr king w andard. <br /> Discussion of Nitrate Loading Results <br /> Total Nitrate Impact <br /> Based on the method and assumptions described, the result of the nitrate loading <br /> estimate indicates that the existing and proposed development on the Site should not <br /> cause a buildup of nitrates in the aquifer above 10 mg/L-N. Because of the satisfactory <br /> • result, no mitigation measures are recommended. <br /> • LOGE 1714 Page 19 <br />
