` MEMORANDUM Page 2 of 3 00, Holly Commerce Center A&B Tracy,CA �0 S I E G F R I E D Revised Equation per Attachment 1 nr=Wnw(1-d)+Rnb/(W+R) (See Attachment 1 for definitions of terms) For this prosect: W= 166,400 gals/yr= 22,246 cu-ft/yr x (1/43,560 ac-ft/cu-ft) = 0.5117 ac-ft/yr(per original report) nw= 146 mg N/L (per original report) d = 30% (per original report) nb = Assumed 0.1 ppm, NO3-N (per original report) R= R, + R2 = Average annual rainfall in ac-ft/yr(see below for analysis) Total Site Area including the basin area = 11.98 acres (11.12 acres for the site plus 0.86 acres for proportional share of the basin (19.2% or 4.43 acres) Annual Rainfall = 9.5in (per San Joaquin County Standard Drawing D-3) Total Runoff= 9.5in/yr x 11.98 acres x (1/12) = 9.48 ac-ft/yr R, = Portion of annual rainfall that is absorbed into leach field areas, landscaping less evaporation from paved surfaces. For the sake of this analysis it is assumed that the site is 7% pervious and that 3% of the runoff is retained in the pavement area and evaporated. The paved areas are approximately 43.3% of the site. R, = (9.48 ac-ft/yr x 7%)- (9.48 ac-ft/yr x 3% x 43.3%) = 0.6636—0.1231 = 0.5405 ac-ft R2 = Portion of the annual rainfall that is captured by the basin and infiltrated, including any evapotranspiration. Although Attachment 1 suggests a month by month analysis this analysis has simplified the approach due to the fact that the County mandated storm water quality requirements dictate that the basin capture and treat the 85th percentile event and capture and treat at least 80% annually. Our storm water modeling estimates that in large storm events approximately 20% of the storm water will be pumped to Sugar Cut. Per the figure below from Appendix D of the California Storm Water BMP Handbook for New Development and Redevelopment for an impervious coefficient of 93% and a required capture rate of 80% the basin annually will capture approximately 70% of the total runoff and infiltrate it with a typical drawdown time of 48 hours. The basin will not be planted and will not have standing water during months when the ET rate is high, however for the sake of this analysis it is assumed that 5% of the water is lost to ET. R2 = 9.48 ac-ft/yr x (70% - 5%) = 6.1620 ac-ft R = R, + R2 = 0.5405 ac-ft/yr+ 6.1620 ac-ft/yr= 6.7025 ac-ft/yr Therefore: n,=Wnw(1-d)+Rnb/(W+R) = ((0.5117 ac-ft/yr x 146 mg N/L)x (1-0.30) + (6.17025 ac-ft/yr x 0.10 ppm))/(0.5117 ac-ft/yr+ 6.7025 ac-ft/yr) = 7.3419 ppm as nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N) amount falls below the 10ppm threshold Stockton San Jose Sacramento Modesto 3428 Brookside Rd. 111 N.
