A wastewater treatment plant receives, at an average, 75% and 125% of water supply during dry and wet seasons, respectively. The population of the service area is 280,000 with average municipal water demand of 550 Lpcd (liter per capita day). The I/I contribute about 25% of the total flow rate of wastewater. Calculate the average and peak flow rate for the wastewater treatment plant for the dry and wet seasons, respectively.
