Table 8, Result of Nitrate Loading E� g Calcu lation <br /> Variable Value Units Description <br /> Long-term average concentration of percolating <br /> Nc r5.84 mg/L-N effluent <br /> The US EPA recommended MCL for nitrate in drinking water is 10 mg/L-N. In a worst <br /> case situation, the maximum buildup of nitrates from the use of septic systems in the <br /> aquifer is predicted to be 5.84 mg/L-N. The result of the nitrate loading estimate is well <br /> below the maximum drinking water standard. <br /> Discussion of Nitrate Loading Results <br /> Total Nitrate Impact <br /> Based on the method and assumptions described,, e` psult of the nitrate loading <br /> estimat s that the existing and proposed-develop nt on the Site should not <br /> cau ildup o urates in the aquifer above 10 mg/L-N.
