• method yields a value of 11.1 inches per year as compared with the 16.8 inches <br /> utilized in the Hantzsche and Finnemore paper. <br /> For the project Site, the local percolation and evapotranspiration rates are <br /> presented in Table 4. Based on the calculation shown, the estimated rate of <br /> recharge from percolating waters for the Escalon, California area would be 2.65 <br /> inches per year by this method. <br /> Table 4.

Closest available stations to Site were selected,then averaged. <br /> • Reduced Rainfall: For this method, rainfall levels from the closest rain station <br /> are multiplied by a percentage based on a reasonable assumption from the <br /> literature. Because the Hantzsche and Finnemore model utilized a value of <br /> approximately 75 percent rainfall as the rate of recharge from percolating waters <br /> in the Chico area, that value is applied to local rainfall in the project area.
