LBA Realty <br /> Draft Soil Suitability and Nitrate Loading Study <br /> Chapter S. Conclusion <br /> 5.1. Total Nitrate Impact from Proposed Project <br /> The US EPA Primary Drinking Water Standards set the maximum contaminant level for nitrate in drinking water <br /> at 10 mg/L as nitrogen.According to the calculations based on the Hantzsche and Finnemore equation,increases <br /> in nitrate concentration due to the proposed project are projected to result in approximate concentrations of <br /> 7.96 mg/L as N. As this is lower than the EPA MCL for drinking water,the project nitrate loading concentrations <br /> do not exceed the maximum drinking water standard. <br /> November 30, 2020 5-1 Schaaf& Wheeler <br /> CONSULTING CIVIL ENGINEERS <br />
