Total nitrogen concentration of influent waste stream is 35 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 8.41 in/yr. <br />4. Background nitrate -N concentration of rainfall is 0.136 mg/L-N. <br />LIVE OAK <br />GEO ENVIRONMENTAL INC. <br />Nitrate Loading Calculation <br />Parker Property <br />25280 N.
