MEMORANDUM Page 2 of 3 00■ <br />Holly Commerce Center E&E <br />Tracy, CA �0 S I E G F R I E D <br />Attachment 1. The site is designed with a detention and water quality basin that serves a dual purpose. <br />The basin is designed to attenuate large storm events so that Sugar Cut is not impacted while also <br />capturing and treating the 85th percentile storm event with a total annual capture of least 80%. For the <br />sake of the following analysis that is intended to replace the nitrate loading calculation found at the <br />bottom of Page 8 of the Chesney Report Dated May 6, 2019. <br />Revised Equation per Attachment 1 <br />nr = Wnw(1-d)+Rnb / (W+R) (See Attachment 1 for definitions of terms) <br />For this project: <br />W = 960 gpd x 5 dpw x 52wpy = 249,600 gals/yr = 33,367 cu-ft/yr x (1/43,560 ac-ft/cu-ft) = 0.7660 ac-ft/yr <br />(revised from original report to match ADF in Siegfried design) <br />n,N = 146 mg N/L (per original report) <br />d = 30% (per original report) <br />nb = Assumed 0.1 ppm, NO3-N (per original report) <br />R = R, + R2 = Average annual rainfall in ac-ft/yr (see below for analysis) <br />Total Site Area including the basin area = 45.57 acres (42.00 acres for the site plus 3.57 acres for <br />proportional share of the basin (80.8% of 4.43 acres) <br />Annual Rainfall = 9.5in (per San Joaquin County Standard Drawing D-3) <br />Total Runoff = 9.5in/yr x 45.57 acres x (1/12) = 36.08 ac-ft/yr <br />R, = Portion of annual rainfall that is absorbed into leach field areas, landscaping less evaporation from <br />paved surfaces. For the sake of this analysis it is assumed that the site is 7% pervious and that 3% <br />of the runoff is retained in the pavement area and evaporated. The paved areas are approximately <br />33.1 % of the site. <br />R, = (35.57 ac-ft/yr x 7%) - (35.57 ac-ft/yr x 3% x 33.1 %) = 2.4899 — 0.3532 = 2.1367 ac -ft <br />R2 = Portion of the annual rainfall that is captured by the basin and infiltrated, including any <br />evapotranspiration. Although Attachment 1 suggests a month by month analysis this analysis has <br />simplified the approach due to the fact that the County mandated storm water quality requirements <br />dictate that the basin capture and treat the 85th percentile event and capture and treat at least 80% <br />annually. Our storm water modeling estimates that in large storm events approximately 20% of the <br />storm water will be pumped to Sugar Cut. Per the figure below from Appendix D of the California <br />Storm Water BMP Handbook for New Development and Redevelopment for an impervious <br />coefficient of 93% and a required capture rate of 80% the basin annually will capture approximately <br />70% of the total runoff and infiltrate it with a typical drawdown time of 48 hours. The basin will not be <br />planted and will not have standing water during months when the ET rate is high, however for the <br />sake of this analysis it is assumed that 5% of the water is lost to ET. <br />R2 = 45.57 ac-ft/yr x (70% - 5%) = 29.6205 ac -ft <br />R = R, + R2 = 2.1367 ac-ft/yr + 29.6205 ac-ft/yr = 31.7572 ac-ft/yr <br />Stockton <br />San Jose <br />Sacramento <br />Modesto <br />3428 Brookside Rd. <br />111 N.
