CARMINA WOOD DESIGN  Project No.:  24-4113  Date:  7/13/2026
  80 SILO CITY ROW, SUITE 100  Project Name:  West Seneca Exchange
  BUFFALO, NEW YORK, 14203  Project Address:  Orchard Park Rd  West Seneca, NY
  (716) 842-3165  Subject:  Sanitary Sewer & Water Demand Calcs
  FAX (716) 842-0263  Sheet:  1  of  3

Sanitary Sewage Demand Calculations:

  0.1 gal/d/sf  x  241,000 sf  =  24,100  gpd  *use 0.1 gallons per sq. ft. per day (shopping center)
  500 gal/d/wind.  x  4  wind.  =  2,000  gpd  *use 500 gallons per drive thru window per day
  25 gal/d/seat  x  222 seats  =  5,550  gpd  *use 25 gallons per seat per day (fast food)
  0.1 gal/d/sf  x  120,025 sf  =  12,003  gpd  *use 0.1 gallons per sq. ft. per day (retail)
  15.0 gal/d/Employ.  x  5  Employ.  =  75  gpd  *use 0.1 gallons per sq. ft. per day (retail)
  35 gal/d/seat  x  500 seats  =  17,500  gpd  *use 25 gallons per seat per day (Ordinary Restraunt)

  Total Site Sanitary Demand:  =  61,228  gpd

* The hydraulic loading rate is per “Design Standards for Intermediate Sized Wastewater Treatment Systems” 2014, NYSDEC

Find Peak Sanitary Demand:

  Peaking Factor based on Population:
  Total demand:  61,228  gpd  /  100 gpcd  =  612 per capita

  Population (P)  =  612  people

  Peaking Factor : (18 +√P) / (4 + √P )  where P is in thousands

  Peaking Factor =  3.93

  Peak Sanitary Demand  =  61,228  x 3.93  =  240,462  gpd
  =  0.240  MGD
  =  0.372  cfs

  Peak Sanitary Flow  =  240,462 gpd  =  167.0 gpm

  4:1 offset flow per NYSDEC requirements  =  167.0 x  4 =  667.9 gpm req'd

Required Infiltration and Inflow Mitigation:

  Mitigation Credit  =  $2.40  / gpd of average daily demand

  Mitigation Agreement Amount  =  $146,946.00
