of six employees, two for the tasting room and four for milling and processing. The tasting room will be open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.; a maximum of 10 customers per day are anticipated. The milling and processing staff will work seasonally, from September through October for grape crush and from November through December for olive harvest and milling. A total of 15 marketing events per year are anticipated, with a maximum attendance of 125 customers per event. The estimated sewage flow rates for various uses are available from a number of references. The uses presented below were guided by the San Joaquin County On-Site Wastewater Disposal Standards (2003), Crites and Tchobanoglous (1998), and EPA (1980). The references indicate that 13 gallons for each employee is typical for an office worker, and five gallons is typical for a bar customer; these rates were used for the winery/olive mill facility (Crites and Tchobanoglous, 1998). The estimated flow values discussed here should not be used for the design and sizing of the septic system. The design and sizing of the septic system should utilize the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department On-Site Wastewater Treatment Systems Standards which incorporate peak and surge flow factors. The estimates used in the On-Site Wastewater Treatment Systems Standards may be greater than those discussed here. The nitrate as nitrogen (N) concentration of employee and customer use is estimated to be 85 mg/L (US EPA, 1980). The maximum average daily flow for the Site was estimated to be 137.6 gallons per day (gpd). Please see the following table: LOGE 1903 Page 13
