Development of New Coastal CIS Coverages
Between NJDEP and Coastal Counties: The
Monmouth and Ocean County Health and Planning
Departments, with assistance from the Bureau of
Marine Water Classification and Analysis will
provide recommendations and guidance to
Brookdale College's Marine Studies Program
Oocated at Sandy Hook) on development of new
Geographic Information System (CIS) data layers
for Monmouth and Ocean Counties. Initially, two
primary coverages will be developed: (1) shoreline
characterizations (e.g., bulkhead shoreline, sandy
beaches, salt marsh) and (2) shoreline structures
(e.g, individual docks and marinas, as well as point
locations and densities of these structures) The
-------
project will involve digitization of information from
aerial photography (1:200 scale) and field verifica-
tion by Brookdale College. This GIS project is
expected to assist the Bureau in its pollution investi-
gations of shellfish waters, as well as its review of
Waterfront Development Permits. For more infor-
mation, contact Bob Scro at (609) 748-2000.
NEW YORK: Draft Clean Water Act Section
303(d) List Prepared: New York's 1994 draft
303(d) Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) list was
available for review and comment in December.
The comment period closed December 16 in antici-
pation of final list submittal to USEPA Region 2 on
February 1,1995.
The waters targeted for priority TMDL development
over the next2 years (and possibly longer where the
TMDL/modeling process is technically
challenging and complex) are
divided into two categories.
Priority 1 waters are the 62
segments where TMDL devel-
opment is currently ongoing.
Thirty-five of these segments
are located in waterbodies
included in New York's 1992 submission. Priority 2
waters are segments where the primary use impair-
ment is for water supply. Of the 17 segments so
listed 4 are considered amenable to TMDL develop-
ment; 3 TMDLs are ongoing. The one new segment
is Lake LaGrange in the Genesee River basin.
The Division of Water has been developing TMDLs
and implementing the resulting wasteload alloca-
tions (WLAs) through State Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (SPDES) permit limits since the
early years of the state's water quality program.
Prior to the enactment of the Clean Water Act, water
quality models/TMDLs were used to establish BOD5
2nd Ultimate Oxygen Demand (UOD) limits. These
limits were put into effect to ensure the maintenance
Of water quality standards for dissolved oxygen.
The next major program thrust was the control ot
toxics Development of numerical, pollutant-
Sfic standards inthelate 1970s/early 1980s led
to a watershedVTMDL approach to establishing
water-quality-based effluent limits for the control of
toxic substances. This TMDL-based toxics control
program, which was the subject of New York s 992
303(d) submission to USEPA, has been m effect
since around 1980 and is a continuing part of the
Division's SPDES permit program. It focuses on
TMDL development, pollutant-by-pollutant, in each
of the 17 major drainage basins in New York State.
The effectiveness of New York's conventional and
toxic pollutant control programs is measured by
compliance monitoring of permitted wastewater
discharges and surveillance of surface and ground
waters For more information, contact Peter Mack at
(518)457-3495.

REGIONAL OFFICE: Acid Mine Drainage
Mtiative: EPA Region 3 and the Office of Surface
Mining (OSM) have joined together to address the
serious water quality problems associated wtfh acid
mine drainage (AMD). About 5,000 miles of
streams in EPA Region 3 are polluted by AMD,
primarily from abandoned mines.
Recently, EPA and OSM held a summit with over
250 people representing government, industry, local
organizations, and environmental groups that
focused on solving the complex AMD issues The
participation was even greater at another AMD
workshop held in Morgantown, West Virginia, to
address the issues and needs in eastern coal states.
The overall goal of Ibis initiative is to reduce the
impact of AMD on streams in Region 3 through
accelerated cleanup of AMD from abandoned mines,
-------
preventing AMD from occurring at new and operat-
ing mines, and leveraging resources. Major activi-
ties under the initiative include the following:
• Foster partnerships among state, local, environ-
mental, federal, private, and industrial entities.
• Explore additional and new sources of funding to
direct toward AMD solutions.
• Raise awareness of the extent of the AMD
problem and corrective needs.
• Target cleanup in watersheds and involve all
stakeholders.
• Develop measures for tracking progress and
report to all stakeholders.
• Monitor compliance of NPDES permits and take
enforcement actions to minimize current and
potential future environmental problems.
• Transfer appropriate technology and information
among all parties involved in the clean-up pro-
grams.

ILLINOIS: Improving the Scenery of Illinois'
Scenic River: The Middle Fork Vermilion River,
northwest of Danville, is the only designated Na-
tional Scenic River in the State of Illinois. Perma-
nent protection, involving both banks, has been
granted to a 17-mile segment of this river in Vermil-
ion County. The Illinois Department of Conserva-
tion (IDOC) manages this segment of the river
through state-owned land and conservation ease-
ments, but severe bank erosion had removed riparian
vegetation from some areas of river frontage. In
response to this problem, the state undertook a
section 319 project to reduce nonpoint source
pollution and allow succession of native vegetation.
A total of $82,500 in .funding from the IDOC and the
Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA)
was used to initiate the project in 1993. The project
was subcontracted to the Illinois State Water Survey
(ISWS). The ISWS used environmentally sound,
cost-effective best management practices to oversee
the revegetation project. For further information,
contact Dave Stoltenberg of USEPA at (312) 353-

WISCONSIN: Rotational Grazing Approved as
Cost-Share: Intensive grazing management, or the
use of rotational grazing systems, is now eligible for
cost-share funding for Wisconsin farmers involved
in Priority Watershed Program projects. This
practice can improve runoff water quality through
reductions in soil loss, phosphorus, and organic
loads from animal feedlots. In addition, it replaces
row crop fields with permanent sod. Wisconsin
-------
Department of Natural Resources considers rota-
tional grazing an alternative best management
practice and makes decisions regarding
eligibility on a case-by-case basis.
The cost-share can be applied to
Wisconsin croplands that are
currently contributing sedi-
ments, nutrients, or pesticides
to a water resource. Restric- • • I

REGIONAL OFFICE: Summitville Mine Site:
Since early 1991, Region 8 has been involved in
collecting environmental data from an abandoned
cyanide heap-leach gold mining facility. The mine is
located near Del Norte, Colorado, in the Summitville
Mining District. Significant mining activities
occurred at Summitville from 1873 to 1894 and 1926
to 1942, and most recently from 1986 to December
1992. Silver and gold were the primary minerals of
interest. The"mtrstsfefcentbperationat'the ••"••-
Summitville Mine Site was an open pit gold mine
located at an elevation of approximately 11,500 feet.
This heap-leach operation placed crushed ore from
an open pit mine into a "lined" heap-leach pad. A
cyanide solution was drizzled over the ore and
saturated the heap. The cyanide leached gold and
silver from the mineral deposit, resulting in a preg-
nant solution. This solution was then treated with
activated carbon to recover the gold and silver.
The operations of the heap-leach pad rapidly col-
lected water, turning the leach pad into a 40-acre
surface area holding pond. Water accumulation
increased each year, as did the discharge of untreated
water from the heap-leach pad area and several adit
drainages. The discharge of contaminants (about
1200 Ib/day of copper, among others) to Wightman
Fork eventually resulted in a total fish kill in a state-
managed trout fishery reservoir some 20 miles
downstream.
EPA assumed management responsibilities for the
mine site in December 1992; it was subsequently
listed as a Superfund site. The site, including the
abandoned cyanide heap-leach facilities and associ-
ated mine workings and mine adit drainages, dis-
charges to the upper Alamosa River by way of the
Wightman Fork (tributary to the Alamosa). Envi-
ronmental data collected in May and August 1991;
April, July, and October 1993; and July and Septem-
ber 1994. Data from all sampling events will be
evaluated to determine changes in water quality
since 1992. Water column and sediment chemistry,
flow estimates, and toxicity test data will be used in
conjunction with other data, including in-stream
biological data and physical habitat, to determine
what impact the Summitville Superfund site is
having on the aquatic life resources within the
Alamosa River drainage.
EPA is working with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service (USFWS) and Colorado Department of
Natural Resources to collect
environmental data
necessary to support
the interim remedial.
investigation and
record of decision for
EPA's Superfund program at the Summitville
site. The primary fcicus of this sampling effort is
aquatic life resources of the Alamosa River, and
associated tributaries and wetlands. Potential risks
to aquatic life in the Alamosa River drainage will be
incorporated into the Superfund Ecological Risk
Assessment for the site. The USFWS has also
expressed concern over the potential short- and long-
term effects of the treated and untreated contami-
nants on federal trust resources downstream from the
Superfund site. EPA is evaluating this potential
problem.
The State of Colorado's Division of Minerals and
Geology and Division of Wildlife are conducting an
aquatic life Use Attainability Analysis (UAA) of
selected streams within the Alamosa River drainage.
The purpose of the UAA is to assign the highest
potential aquatic life use and corresponding ambient
water quality criteria to Wightman Fork and the
Alamosa River consistent with the requirements of
the Clean Water Act. The UAA will also consider
and incorporate additional sources of contamination
not specifically associated with the Summitville
mine. EPA will provide the state with the chemical,
-------
physical, and biological data necessary to frame the
basis for its recommendations. For additional
information, contact Tom Willingham, U.S. EPA, at

REGIONAL OFFICE: Proposed Test Tube
Biological Monitoring Program: Region 9 re-
cently drafted a 301(h) modified permit for the
Tafuna Sewage Treatment Plant in American
Samoa. A new outfall and diffuser site had been
purposely chosen along a natural sand channel
devoid of coral or other benthic organisms for
several hundred feet in all directions. But even a
small discharger like Tafuna (1-2 MGD) must have a
monitoring program designed to evaluate the impact
of the modified discharge on the marine biota.
To meet this requirement, Region 9 developed a
multipurpose effluent toxicity testing
program. The permittee is
required to conduct not only 48-
hour acute toxicity tests with the
invertebrate Ceriodaphnio, but
also short-term chronic toxicity
tests with one of two marine
invertebrates for which EPA has
approved methods in place. In
this manner, Region 9 substitutes an
in situ biological monitoring program for an in vitro
one. For further information, contact David Stuart,

Assessment and Watershed Protection
Division (AWPD)
Joint Meeting of Regional
Monitoring, Water Quality, and
Nonpoint Source Coordinators
On December 6-8, AWPD and the Office
of Wastewater Management jointly
hosted a meeting of Regional and Head-
quarters coordinators representing the
monitoring, nonpoint source, and Clean
Water Act section 106 grant programs.
The overall goal of the meeting, held in
the Washington, D.C., area, was to seek
agreement on key areas of cooperation
and to familiarize all participants with
issues affecting the three different
program areas. Participants discussed
implementation of the new section 106
monitoring guidance designed to
strengthen state monitoring programs,
and the need for improving and develop-
ing water quality monitoring tools for the
section 319 nonpoint source control
program. For more information, contact
Mary Belefski at (202) 260-7061.
STORET MODERNIZATION: Developing a
STORET Tool Kit: AWPD is continuing its study
to decide which "tools" to include in the modernized
STORET system. Tools are defined as capabilities
provided by the system that allow users to manipu-
late data by performing one of the following six
general functions:
• Upload/data entry
• Download/reformat data
• List, raw data display
• Statistical summarization ("tables")
• Graphics (charts, graphs, and the like)
• Map production
The goal of the overall project is to provide a select
set of capabilities that meet the user's functional
requirements, perform unique functions, are easy to
maintain, and are relatively easily updated.
AWPD started the study by compiling an inventory
of tools presently available in the Water Quality file
(usually referred to as STORET), the Biological
Information System (BIOS), the Ocean Data Evahm-
tion System (ODES), and the Water .Quality, Analy^.n
sis System (WQAS). The modernized system will
replace all of these current systems.
Some interesting conclusions can already be derived
from analyzing the inventory: Over half of
STORET tool use was not to analyze data, but to list
raw data, i.e., data that are unanalyzed,
unsummarized, and unmodified in any way; statisti-
cal analysis was often done by importing STORET
data into the Statistical
Analysis System (SAS);
system tool use for map
and graphic production
was infrequent; the two
tools in the BIOS
system, one for listing
the raw data and the
other for statistical
analysis, showed equal
use among the small
user community using
this system; the most popular ODES tools were
those which produce statistical summanzations; and
the most frequently used tool in the WQAS was the
8
-------
one that allows users to create reports of REACH
file data.
Although results from the questionnaires AWPD
sent out to obtain user input are still being analyzed,
preliminary findings show that the most common
activity supported by STORET/BIOS/ODES/WQAS
is trend analysis. The most common tools being
used are for downloading and listing data. System
tools were most likely to be used for data entry,
downloading, and listing, while non-system tools
were used most often for graphic and map produc-
tion.
From an in-depth analysis of all this information,
AWPD hopes to recommend which tools will be
supported within the modernized system. To help us
in these findings, a break-out session has been put on
the agenda at the Dallas/STORET Modernization
workshop scheduled for February 7-9,1995. De-
tailed information on this Workshop has been
distributed to the greater user community. For more
information on the workshop, STORET moderniza-
tion, the tool kit development, or the possible
modification of the STORET parameter codes,
