RE: Estimating Sewage Flows
If the store you are designing is part of a large chain ask them for data from their other stores. It is likely that the water use and wastewater flows from their other stores will be you best source of information.
good luck

Most of them will have monthly usage records for all of their users. Find a similar store in the community and ask the water dept. for their previous years usage.
Note that it can vary greatly dependent upon the store location and traffic volume. If the community has more than one similar store, get all the info you can and look for worst case.
