IMPACT OF NITROGEN LOADING FROM SITE PROJECT TO DOWNGRADIENT WATER SOURCES The recharging of groundwater is the most likely potential feature that could impact future nitrogen loading. Since the subject property is flat, AGI does not anticipate percolating effluent will affect any nearby water sources. Based on the volume of wastewater to be generated and the depth to groundwater (75 feet bsg), the potential vertical migration would not likely degrade the local groundwater. A total of 13.11 ppm of additional nitrogen is estimated to be added to the site over the long term through wastewater recharge from the proposed septic system. The nitrogen loading value is above the desired value of 10 ppm. 10.0. TOTAL NITRATE IMPACT FROM PROPOSED PROJECT Based on the method and assumptions described, proposed NO3_N mass of wastewater and the calculations of the NO3_N loading predicted, the proposed development may negatively impact NO3_N loading rates within the aquifer. The soil at the site appear to be adequate for nitrate degradation and proper leaching of wastewater. A total of 13.11 ppm of additional nitrogen is estimated to be added to the site over the long term through wastewater recharge from the proposed septic system.
