Total nitrogen concentration of influent waste stream is 49.3 mg/L-N. If different influent concentrations exist, use weighted average <br /> 2. Fraction of nitrate-N loss due to denitrification in the soil is 25%. <br /> 3. Estimated deep percolation of rainfall is 6.58 in/yr. <br /> 4. Background nitrate-N concentration of rainfall is 1 mg/L-N. <br /> LOGE 1605 March 21,2016 <br />
