Table 2. Scenario Watershed Nitrogen Loads: Waquoit Bay Attenuated total nitrogen loads by subembayment and surface water input to Waquoit Bay are presented for each Mashpee Sewer Commission scenario. All scenarios loads are based on build-out nitrogen loading conditions using the updated SMAST unified land use database for Mashpee;MEP build-out loads are presented for comparison. Loads do not include atmospheric deposition onto the sub- embayment surface or benthic flux loading terms. "Threshold"load is from the scenario used in the MEP technical report to meet the N threshold levels in the Bay.
