Another city wants to develop land for agricultural irrigation. The effluent flow oi 2.3 mgd con tains 24 mg/l of nitrate nitrogen. Crop uptake is 400 lb/ac/yr. Annual rainfall is 2.3 in./mo. The state has no application limits. Evapotranspiration of 5.9 in./ac/mo and percolation ol 14 in./mo were measured on a test plot. If a portion of the flow is denitrified, resulting in < 10 mg/l for 1.0 mgd, how many acres are necessary? Calculate the area required for recycled water application.
