I            Summary
                    A  study of biological  conditions at  some  stations in
•            the  Fox River and the Fox  Chain of Lakes from Wilmot, Wisconsin
•            to Ottawa, Illinois was conduted for twelve days during May  5
              through June 13, 1969.
I                  Cyclotella. a diatom,  predominated in the phytoplankton
              collections.  This species seldom interferes with recreational
•            use.
•                  Ooze or nuck was noted in the bottom material in the
              Fox  Chain of Lakes samples.   However, these lakes provide some
I            fishing and other forms of recreation.
                    Bottom conditions were not favorable for the desirable
I            pollution-sensitive benthic organisms at stations near KcHenry,
•            Elgin, South Elgin and Aurora.  They were more favorable for
              these organisms near Algonquin, Oswego, Yorkville, Piano,
I            Sheridan, Highway 52, Highway 6 and Ottawa,

Recommendations
•                  The Illinois Sanitary Water Board's Rules and Regulations


             SWB-11 - Water Quality Standards which includes the standards for


•           the Fox River require nutrient reduction from municipal sources


             within 10 years or "as soon as practical methods0are developed."


•           It is the view of the Federal Water Pollution Control Administra-


•           tion that pratical technical methods for nutrient removal are


             presently available and, therefore, the Sanitary Water Board


•           should request plans for nutrient removal from those Fox River


             Basin municipalities listed in SWB-11.  Final completion dates


I           for these projects should follow the typical project completion


•           schedules outlined in SWB-11.


                    The ten-year period allowed for the control of pollution


•           caused by combined sewsr overflow or storm flow bypassing at


             sewage treatment works should be viewed as an absolute maximum.  A


H           realistic program to control this source of pollution will take


•           years to implement and, therefore, immediate action toward initi-


             ating such a program is essential.


•                  Without in any way detracting from the immediacy of the


             above recommendations the Federal Water Pollution Control Adminis-


|           tration further recommends that the people of the Fox River Basin


m           establish a basin-wide authority with sufficient powers to plan


             and implement a comprehensive watershed plan.

                    A major element of the water quality portion of this plan
•           should be consideration of control of pollution from agricultural
             point sources and land runoff.
'                  Such a plan is already in existence for the Wisconsin portion
•           of the basin.  The people living in the Illinois portion of the
             basin should initiate this essential planning effort as soon as
•           possible.
             Introduction
•                  The Fox River and the Fox Chain of Lakes have been subject
•           to considerable algal blooms in past summers.  These blooms were
             not only unattractive to view but also interfered with fishing and
I           boating as well.  Domestic pollution which probably caused the ex-
             cessive algal growths also resulted in high populations of coliform
«           bacteria in some cases.                           »-
•                  As a result of these conditions, numerous meetings were
             held to discuss the problem and sone studies were conducted.  A
•           report entitled Fox,,Chain of Lakes. Illinois. Algal Problem, July -
             August, 1963. was prepared by the Great Lakes-Illinois River Basins
•           Project, Public Health Service, U. S.  Department of Health,
•           Education and Welfare, Region V, Chicago,  Illinois.   This report re-
             viewed sonie studies made on the problem prior to September, 1963.
•           It also discussed a study conducted during the summer of 1963. Four
             conclusions resulting from this study follow:  (1)  The several

             lakes  of the  Fox  Chain were biologically overproductive as mani-



             Tested by  algal blooms of  such density and quality as to cause



             nuisance conditions and concomitant devaluation as esthetic and
I



              recreational  resources,  (2) the algal condition in 1963 was caused
                                                             Q


I            by a combination of low  flow in the Fox River and fertilization



              from three principal sources (a) treated sewage fron. the Villages



|            of Antioch, Fox Lake ^nd Round Lake (b) infiltration of septic



«            tank absorption fields in unsewered residential areas and (c) agri-



              cultural run-off from the nutrient-rich waters of the Fox River,



•            (3) although no serious  health hazard existed, the water quality



             was so poor as to be undesirable for bathing and esthetic enjoy-



|           ment, (4) a program to remedy the problem should be initiated



_            immediately.  Such a program must involve the best informed



™           technical talent available as well as the assistance of federal



I           and state agencies having capabilities in this field,



                    Some past fish-kills by pollution in the Fox River have been



•           reported by the Illinois Conservation Department.  One such kill,



—           caused by sulfuric acid, occurred in August, 1963 near South Elgin.



™           Another kill, caused by  industrial wastes, occurred in January 1964



•           near Geneva.



                    The Illinois Sanitary Water Board has made studies of this



|           problem.  According to a news item appearing in early 1969,  a. state



             inspection team conducted surveys in the Fox River in 1964 and in



             1968.  Although the report indicated some improvement in the water

I
             quality between 1964 and 1968, it emphasized that much needs to be
I           done to improve the river.  This includes improvement of the treat-
•           ment facilities for sewage waste and the types of sewer systems
             emptying into the area.
•                  In order to provide further information on the condition
             of the Fox River, personnel of the Lake Michigan Basin Office of
•           the F//PCA conducted a study of the problem during twelve-days in
•           the period May 5 through June 13, 1969.
             Causes of Algal Growth
•  ,                Favorable condition of light, temperature, and water move-
             ment produce amounts of phytoplankton that increase with availabil-
I           ity of nutrients.  Various inorganic elements are necessary for
•           algal cell growth.  These include nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium,
             calcium, carbon, and iron.  Vitamins are also required.  Nitrogen
I           and phosphorus are very important nutrients necessary in algal
             growth.  However, large amounts may cause nuisance "blooms" of algae.
I           Eutrophication
•                  Eutrophication or lake-aging is caused by increased biological
             productivity resulting from nutrient enrichment of the lake.  As
•           the concentration of nutrients becomes greater, the density of
             algal growths also may become greater.  If all necessary nutrients
I           are available in sufficient quantities, nuisance "blooms"  may result.
•           These are symptoms of the eutrophic lake.  The Fox Chain of Lakes
             are considered to be in an advanced stage of eutrophication.

•           Field Sampling and Laboratory Methods

                    The stations used for sampling for biological parameters are
I           shown in Figures 1 and 2.  Plans were made to conduct most of the
             sampling downstream from cities and towns, and especially their
•           sewage treatment facilities.  Where bridges were located below
•           sewage treatment plants, samples were collected from them.  However,
             in many cases, the sewage treatment facilities were located down-
•           stream from a bridge.  In these cases, samples were collected by
             boat.
•             .     Benthic samples were collected by means of either the
•           Petersen dredge or the Eckman dredge.  The former was used in areas
             having rubble, rock or gravel bottoms; the latter was generally used
•           in sampling areas having soft bottoms containing ooze, detritus, etc.
                    Benthic samples were generally collected from three sites at
|        -   each station.  Looking upstream, these sampling sites were located
um           thus: (A) was located about 1/4 of the way across the stream from
             the right-hand shorelines, (B) was located at mid-stream, and (C)
•           was located about 3/4 of the way across the stream from the right-
             hand shoreline.
|                  The benthic sample was washed through a 30-mesh screen.
tm           The material remaining on the screen was placed into a 16-ounce
             polystyrene jar containing 10 percent formalin.

                    A composited surface phytoplankton sample was collected

•            at each station thus:  one-fourth of a one-half gallon polystyrene

             bottle was taken from the water at site (A),  one-half of the

|            bottle was collected at site (B), and one-fourth of the bottle was
                                                             o
m            taken from site (C).  Ten milliliters of Merthiolate was added to

             the same as a preservative.

•                   Laboratory procedures for benthos and  phytoplankton

             analysis followed those outlines in the Water Pollution Biology

|            Field and Laboratory Manual prepared by the Biology Unit,  GLLRBP,

m            Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, February, 1966.

             Biological Findings

•                   Table 1 shows the numbers of benthic organisms collected at

             the various stations.  The benthic organisms  listed under Oligochaeta,

|            Spaeriidae, Tendipedidae, other Diptera, Hirudinea, Pulmonata  and

M            Isopoda were considered pollution-tolerant.  The remaining organisms

             in Table 1 were considered pollution-sensitive,

•                   Table 2 shows the number of phytoplankton collected at  the

             various stations.  The table indicates that a considerable number of

|            phytoplankton were collected from the stations in the Fox River and

«            the Fox Chain of Lakes.  With but two exceptions,  the dominant

             phytoplankton recorded was Cyclotella, a diatom often found in fertile
             numbers seldom interferes with the  recreational  use  of the water.
•          mid-western  streams.   The presence of this species in abundant

                    Although data on chemical analysis of the water were not
 •           available in this study, it is probable that the phytoplankton
 •           numbers were stimulated by nutrients in the water.  The sources
             of these nutrients probably were sewage treatment plant effluents,
 •       .    septic tank discharge, -and agricultural run-off.
                    Pollution-tolerant benthic organisms and fairly high
 I           phytoplankton populations were noted in the Fox River above the
 •           Fox Chain of Lakes.   It was noted, however, that fishermen were
             active at Wilmot, Wisconsin, and at Highway 173 bridge.
 •   :               Bottom material composed of ooze or muck was noted in
             samples collected in Grass Lake, Nippersink Lake, Nippersink Creek,
 I           and Pistakee Lake.  Pollution-tolerant organisms were predominant
 •           in these samples.  However, fishermen were active in these lakes,
             and some live fish were observed in Grass Lake and in Nippersink
 I           Lake during the study.
                    Phytoplankton numbers in the samples increased at stations
 •           in the Fox River downstream from the Fox Chain of Lakes.
 •                  Pollution-tolerant benthic organisms composed between 80
             and 100 percent of the benthos collected at stations below McHenry,
 •           Fox River Grove,  Elgin, and South Elgin.  An odorous ooze was
             noted in samples collected below the Elgin sewage treatment plant.
|           All benthic organisms collected here were pollution-tolerant.
             Similar conditions were noted in samples collected below the South

              Elgin sewage treatment plant.   Raw sewage was noted in the river

 |           below the Aurora sewage treatment plant at noon on May 8,  1969.

 _           This condition may have been caused by by-passing sewage following

 ™           a recent rainfall in the vicinity.

 •                  Somewhat better bottom conditions were recorded at  stations

              below Algonquin,  above Aurora sewage treatment plant,  below Oswego

 |           and Yorkville,  near Piano and Sheridan and below Highway 52,

 _           Wedron,  Highway 6 and Ottawa.   This was indicated by an increase

 •           in the number of pollution-sensitive organisms collected at these

 •           stations.

                     The study provided some information on biological conditions

 I           in the Fox River and Fox Chain of Lakes during May and early June,

              1969.   Information on phytoplankton and benthos populations in the

 •           river and  lakes during the warmer months of August*and September

 •           was not  obtained.

                    Although little or no  fishing was noted at some places

 •           along the  river,  fishermen were active at other sites.   Interviews

              with some  of the  fishermen indicated that carp and catfish  are

 •            taken at some places in the lower and mid-section of the river.

 •                   In  the upper Fox River  and the Fox Chain of Lakes, bass,

              crappie, sunfish,  and catfish  are frequently  taken.  One fishermen

 I            mentioned  taking  northern pike at one place.   No doubt other

              species  are  taken in some sections  of the river.
