19 May 2021 AdvancedGeo <br /> Project No. 21-6435 An Employee-Owned Company <br /> Page 12 of 14 <br /> Proposed Commercial System <br /> 120 gpd x 260 days of proposed operation _ 7.48 gallons per cubic foot = 4,171 cubic <br /> feet of wastewater. <br /> The total wastewater volume for proposed project will be 17,079 cubic feet of wastewater <br /> (existing) + 4,171 cubic feet of wastewater (proposed) = 21,250 cubic feet of wastewater. <br /> Does not account for evapotranspiration likely to occur. <br /> NW = Total nitrogen concentration of wastewater at 45 mg/L-N based on the average <br /> discharge. Accounting for the loss of mg/L-N in the septic tank at 15% = 45-15%= 38.25 <br /> and the loss from the biomat at 10% 38.25 - 10% = 34.425 mg/L-N. <br /> d = Fraction of nitrogen concentration removed from the wastewater due to denitrification <br /> within the soil (25 percent for silty sand soils). <br /> R = Estimated Deep percolation / average rainfall recharge rate per year: 11.78 inches. <br /> Nb = Background nitrate-nitrogen concentration of rainfall recharge: 1.0 mg/I. The Nb is <br /> an average value determined for San Joaquin County by the EHD. <br /> EXISTING AND PROPOSED HOME CALCULATIONS: <br /> Nr = I x Nw (1-d) + R x Nb = (I+R) <br /> Assumptions: <br /> = 158,950 gallons = 21,250 cubic feet wastewater _ [(0.811 acres x 43,560 feet2) _ 12 <br /> inches] = 21,250 = 2,944 = 7.21 inches/year <br /> NW = 34.425 mg/L-N <br /> d = 25 percent denitrification <br /> R = 11 .78 inches/year <br /> Nb = 1.0 milligram per liter <br /> Nr = [7.21 inches/year x 34.425 mg/L-N (1-0.25)] + (11.78 inches/year x 1.0 milligram per <br /> liter) - (7.21 inches/year + 11.78 inches/year) <br /> Nr = 186.15 _ 18.99 = 9.80 <br /> Nr = 9.80 ppm nitrogen (NO3_N) <br /> 9.7. IMPACT OF NITROGEN LOADING FROM SITE PROJECT TO <br /> DOWNGRADIENT WATER SOURCES <br /> The recharging of groundwater is the most likely potential feature that could impact future <br /> nitrogen loading. Since the subject property is relatively flat, AGI does not anticipate <br /> percolating effluent will affect any nearby water sources. A total of 9.80 ppm of additional <br />
