a watershed is characterized by the following parameters:

mean annual precipitation = 18 inches

drainage area = 1.7 mi.2

NRCS curve number CN = 88

percent of watershed impervious = 50%

commercial land use as a percent of watershed area = 10%

industrial land use as a percent of watershed area = 15%

residential land use as a percent of watershed area = 63%

nonurban land use as a percent of watershed area = 12%

a particular storm resulted in 2.6 inches of rain falling on the watershed. Estimate the mean concentration, in mg/1, and load, in kg, in the storm runoff for the following water quality constituents: chemical oxygen demand (COD), total nitrogen (TN), dissolved phosphorus (DP), and recoverable lead (PB).
