LOGE 1907: Bavaro SS/NLS Addendum Page 5 <br /> March 14, 2019 <br /> Table 2. Rates of Recharge from Percolatinq Waters for Site <br /> Method Result(in./yr.) Comment <br /> 100 Percent Rainfall 12.46 Likely overestimates recharge from <br /> percolating waters <br /> Evapotranspiration Reduction 3.64 Likely underestimates recharge from <br /> percolating waters in many parts of the <br /> County. A modified version of this <br /> method is currently being developed by <br /> the San Joaquin County Environmental <br /> Health Department; some adjustments <br /> to the method may be forthcoming from <br /> that agency <br /> Reduced Rainfall 9.3 Method accepted by San Joaquin <br /> County Environmental Health <br /> Department from January 2017 through <br /> January 2019 <br /> Regional Recharge from Percolating Waters 10.1 Regional average for subbasin <br /> Live Oak favors the reduced rainfall method based on its good County-wide correlation <br /> with the regional recharge value for the subbasin. To expedite processing at the San <br /> Joaquin County Environmental Health Department, however, the recharge values from <br /> both the evapotranspiration reduction method and the reduced rainfall method will be <br /> utilized for the nitrate loading calculation. <br /> The nitrate concentration of the recharge waters was estimated to be 1 mg/L-N <br /> (Hantzsche and Finnemore). <br /> Quantity and Qualityof Domestic Wastewater <br /> Mr. Bavaro indicated that the existing house on Parcel 2 has three bedrooms.; For the <br /> purpose of the nitrate loading calculation, a potential future second unit dweiling with �g� <br /> three bedrooms is considered. Potential future three-bedroom primary and second unit <br /> dwellings on Parcel 1 are considered as well. No new construction is planned. <br /> Crites and Tchobanoglous (1998) list a typical flow rate of 50 to 70 gallons per person <br /> per day for an individual residence. The San Joaquin County Enviromental Health <br /> Department has indicated that maximum flow and double occupancy within each <br /> bedroom should be considered for the nitrate loading assessment; as a result, a value <br /> of 140 gallons per bedroom per day has been selected (personal communication, <br /> January 6, 2017). <br />
