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 3.64 in/yr. <br /> 4. Background nitrate-N concentration of rainfall is 0.3 mg/L-N. <br /> Nitrate Loading Calculation Plate No.: 15 <br /> Project No: 1932 <br /> Winters Property <br /> LIVE OAK 6819 E.Lathrop Rd. <br /> GEO ENVIRONMENTAL INC.
