Foreword...
The annual fish kill report represents
the combined efforts of private individuals;
State fish and game, health, and conserva-
tion officers; and water pollution control
officials at the State and Federal level.
Usually, a fish kill is first noticed by a
fisherman, camper, or other private citizen,
who informs a warden or other State
official. In most cases, the State agency
then sends trained investigators to identify
the cause and size of the kill. Where water
pollution is determined or suspected to be
the cause, the State submits a report to
the Environmental Protection Agency.
It is essential that a fish kill be reported
and investigated immediately in order to
determine the source of pollution and the
polluting agent. Dead fish may be washed
downstream from the source of pollution.
The polluting agent may be diluted by
fast flowing water, making on-site investi-
gation difficult or even impossible. Hot
weather conditions decompose fish tissue,
also making it difficult to identify a pollut-
ing agent. Since the investigator can count
or estimate only those fish which lie on
or near the surface, the number of fish
reported killed is almost always a con-
servative figure. In some cases, as much
as 80 percent of the dead fish cannot be
counted due to turbid water, or because
the fish have either sunk to the bottom of
the water body or have been washed away
from the site of the kill.
The reporting system depends, to a
large extent, upon individuals in the field
making State officials aware of fish kills.
It is, therefore, quite likely that the large
increases in reports for 1971,1972, and 1973
over earlier years are a result of increased
public awareness of pollution. We hope
that this fish kill report contributes to this
awareness.
The following is a short summary of
significant statistics of fish kills reported
in 1973.
• All States Reported in 1973
For the second time since the inception
of the annual pollution-caused fish kill
reporting system in I960, every State in
in the Union participated. In six States,
participation consisted of a notice that
the State had no recorded pollution-
caused fish kill incidents in 1973.
• The Number of Fish Kill Reports
Received in 1973 Showed a
Continuing Decrease Compared to
the Peak Year 1971
Nevertheless, the 749 reports received
in 1973 was 18 percent higher than the
number of reports received for any year
before 1971.
• Over 300 Million Fish Reported
Killed Since 1960
The 37.8 million fish reported killed in
1973 brought the cumulative total of all
fish reported killed by water pollution
since 1960 to 336.5 million. 1973 was the
fourth highest year in number of fish
reported killed since the inception of the
annual fish kill reporting system. The
number of fish reported killed in 1973
showed a 14 percent increase over
reported kills in 1972.
• Industrial Operations Led all
Other Pollution Operations in
Fish Kill Reports in 1973
The 196 fish kill reports associated with
industrial operations in 1973 led all other
pollution sources, and were 4 percent
more than the 189 industrial incidents
reported in 1972. Industrial operations
have led all other source operations in
every one of the 14 years of the system.
• Municipal Operations Killed
More Fish Than Any Other
Pollution Operation in 1973
The 10.4 million fish killed by pollution
from municipal operations represent
over one-fourth of the 37.8 million fish
reported killed in 1973.
• The Majority of Fish Kill
Reports Indicated That Less
Than 10,000 Fish Were Killed
Per Incident in 1973
While 84 percent of the reports submitted
specified the size of the kill as less than
10,000 fish, the total number of fish
reported killed in these reports was less
than 1 percent of the 37.8 million fish
reported killed in all incidents in 1973.
However, each report was initiated by a
pollution incident.
Basic Statistics...
In 1973, 749 reports were submitted
(Table 1). Of this total, 703 reports (94
percent of the total) stated the number of
-------
fish killed. This percentage represents
the highest ratio of reported incidents
specifying the number of fish killed to the
total number of reports for any year since
the start of the reporting system. In 1972,
the figure was 92 percent. The general
trend of this ratio over the 1960-1973 period
shows an increase from a low of 52 percent
in 1960 to the present high of 94 percent
in 1973.
From 1961 through 1973, the total esti-
mated number of fish killed ranged from
Table 1 contains historical data for the thirteen
years that fish kill reports have been received.
The table summarizes the following: The num-
ber of states reporting; the number of reported
pollution-caused fish kill incidents; the number
of reports which specify how many fish died;
the reported number of fish killed; the largest
single fish kill for each year; the number of
reports for each pollution source operation; and
a breakdown of fish killed by size of kill. The
number of incidents and the numbers of fish
killed are probably understated because of
incomplete reporting and the difficulties of
estimating numbers of dead fish. Also, 20
percent of the reports do not specify how many
fish were killed.

-------
a low of 6.9 million in 1963 to a high of 73
million in 1971. The largest number of fish
killed in any single incident was 26.5
million in 1969: this incident was caused by
pollution in Lake Thonotossassa, near
Plant City, Florida.
Excluding the 73.6 million fish reported
killed in 1971, the average number of fish
killed for the twelve remaining years was
21.4 million. The total of 37.8 million fish
reported killed in 1973, the fourth highest
year, was much higher than the average.
In 1973, as in previous years, most of the
incidents were small—that is, they killed
fewer than 10,000 fish apiece. Most fish
were killed in very few incidents. For
instance, 90 percent of the fish killed were
reported in only 25 (3.5 percent) of the 703
reports, including one reported kill ac-
counting for 10 million dead fish (Table 1).
Since the number of dead fish may not
be indicative of the severity of the pollu-
tion, proper State officials should be noti-
fied even when only a small number of
dead fish are seen floating on a water
body. In cases where the fish kill was due
to causes other than man-created pollu-
tion, State officials are still interested in
determining the cause and should be
notified.
In 1973, sources of pollution were identi-
fied in 624 of the 749 reports. These kills
are listed individually in Table 10. The 125
kills for which the pollution source could
not be positively identified are listed in
Table 11.
Total Fish Reported Killed
A total of 37.8 million fish were reported
killed in 703 separate incidents of water
pollution from all sources (Table 2). In
the remaining 46 reports from the 749
reports submitted, fish losses were either
not stated, or were not expressed in
numerical terms.
The 37.8 million fish reported killed in
1973 brought the total number of fish killed
(Figure 1) to 333.5 million in 6,305 separate
incidents since the first full year of re-
porting (1961). These 6,305 separate in-
cidents, plus 1,312 reported incidents which
did not state the number of fish killed,
brought the total number of reported
pollution-caused fish kill incidents for the
1961-1973 period to 7,617.
A total of 44 States reported at least one
fish kill incident (Table 3). The remaining
six States (Arizona, Minnesota, New Mex-
ico, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, and Wyom-
ing) stated they had no recorded incidents
of pollution-caused fish kills for 1973.
Four States (Alabama, New Jersey, Vir-
ginia, and Texas) accounted for 88 percent
of the total reports.
Major Fish Kills
In 1973, 25 kills were reported in which
the number of dead fish equaled or ex-
ceeded 100,000 each, accounting for 34.2
million fish (Table 4). Of these, six massive
kills reached or exceeded the million mark,
totaling 28.5 million fish. Of these, four kills
in Texas accounted for 20.8 million fish,
with one kill in a Houston drainage canal
reaching the 10 million mark; one kill in
Virginia accounted for 7.5 million fish;
and one kill in New Jersey accounted for
approximately 75 percent (28.5 million)
of the 37.8 million pollution-caused fish
kills in 1973.
Fish Killed, by Type of Water Body
Reports for 1973 indicate a significant
increase compared to 1972 in fish reported
killed in rivers and coastal waters and a
Table 2 summarizes fish kills for 1973 by major
and individual pollution sources, and provides
further information on fish killed in the game
and non-game categories by major pollution
sources. Average size of fish kill for each major
source is also included. Kills from natural
causes are not included.

OVER 330 MILLION FISH WERE REPORTED
KILLED BY POLLUTION ...
... over a 13 year period (Rgure 1). This graph
summarizes the reported number of fish killed
for the 1961-1973 period. The first reporting
year, 1960 was excluded since reports were
not received for the full year. Many more dead
fish probably go unreported due to the diffi-
culties of estimating, and because they were
not investigated immediately. This total is also
low since 20 percent of the reports are not
included because they did not state the number
of fish killed.
Table 3 summarizes data from the 44 states
which reported one or more pollution-caused
fish kill incidents. Of the 749 reports submitted,
703 indicated the number of fish killed. The
remaining 46 reports did not specify the number
of fish killed. The table also shows the number
of reports for incidents that occurred in rivers,
lakes, and coastal waters.

Table 4 lists the major fish kill incidents occur-
ring in 1973 in which 100,000 or more fish were
killed in each incident. Many more large kills
may have gone unreported, or missed because
they were not investigated immediately, and
large kills may have been part of the reports
that did not state a number for fish killed.
small increase in fish reported killed in
lakes (Table 5). Almost two-thirds (24.9
million) of the total fish reported killed
died in rivers, while 21 percent (8.1 million)
died in lakes, and 13 percent (4.8 million)
died in coastal waters. In 1972, 33 percent
(5.8 million) of the total fish reported killed
died in lakes. Less than one percent (4
thousand) died in coastal waters, and 67
percent (11.9 million) died in rivers.
Fish Killed by Type of Water
In 1973, the number of fish reported
killed in estuary water (water of inlets,
bays, or river mouths that are affected by
tidal action) accounted for the largest
number of fish reported killed of the three
types of water (Table 6), followed by fresh
water (any inland water upstream of tidal
action). An almost insignificant number
of fish (61,000) were reported killed in salt
water (water beyond the coastline).
In 1973, 85.4 percent (32.3 million) of the
total reported fish were killed in estuary
water as compared to 39 percent (7.0
million) in 1972. However, 10,800,000 (33
percent) fish were reported killed in only
3 incidents in 1973. Over 14 percent of the
fish (5.4 million) were killed in fresh water
as compared to 60 percent (10.3 million)
in 1972.

Fish killed in estuary water are of national
concern since estuaries serve as breeding
and nursery grounds for many species of
sport and commercial marine fish.
Fish Kills, By Month
As in the past, the greatest number of
reports (88 percent) were submitted for
the warm weather months (Table 7), from
May through September. Warm weather
can often combine with lower water levels
during these months to compound the
effects of pollution. Also, since more
people are in, or on, the water during the
summer, kills are more apt to be observed
and reported.
A total of 703 reports specified the num-
ber of fish killed by month. August ranked
first in the number of reports (123) and in
number of fish. July ranked second (102),
followed by September (93), June (76),
and October (69).
Fish Kills, By Duration and Severity
Not all reports indicate duration of kill.
In 1973, 59 percent (443 reports) indicated
duration of kill with an average of 2.70
days (Table 8). In 1972, 56 percent (422
reports) indicated duration of kill with an
average of 3.40 days. The two longest
pollution incidents in 1973 lasted at least
50 days. These incidents occurred at

Ashton Reservoir, Idaho (50 days), and
the Kennebec River at Augusta, Maine
(60 days). The decrease in duration in
1973 reverses an increasing trend started
in 1965, with the exception of 1967.
The severity of a fish kill is reported as
"complete", "heavy", "moderate", or
"light" (Table 8). Ninety three "complete"
kills were reported, averaging 6,820 fish
per report. "Heavy" kills averaging 9,540
fish were reported on 207 occasions. "Mod-
erate" kills were reported on 144 occasions,
averaging 4,922 fish per kill. "Light" kills
were reported on 160 occasions, averaging
837 fish per kill. Table 8 also indicates the
average duration of fish kills by severity
of kill, as well as the number and per-
centage of fish kill reports given jointly for
severity of kill and major source of
pollution.
Pollution-Causing
Operations...
In 1973, pollution from industrial opera-
tions ranked first with 196 reports (Figure
2). In 1972, pollution from industrial opera-
tions also ranked first, with 189 reports.
This comparison indicates a small increase
of reported incidents (7 reports), or less
than a 4 percent change between the two
reporting years. Industrial operations has
consistently led all other major pollution
source operations in every one of the 14
years of the reporting system.
In 1973, pollution from agricultural opera-
tions ranked second with 161 reports
(Figure 2). In 1972, pollution from municipal
-------
operations ranked second in the number
of reports (167). Municipal operations
include electric power generating stations.
In 1973, pollution from municipal opera-
tions ranked third with 145 reports (Figure
2). In 1972, pollution from agricultural
operations ranked third, with 113 reports.
In 1973, pollution from transportation
operations ranked fourth with 65 reports
(Figure 2). In 1972, pollution from "other
operations" ranked fourth in the number
of reports (72).
In 1973, pollution from other operations
ranked fifth, and last, with 56 reports
(Figure 2). In 1972, pollution from trans-
portation operations ranked fifth with 56
reports.
The term "unknown operations" is
applied to situations where a fish kill
cannot be linked to a specific pollutant
or pollution source, but an investigator is
reasonably confident that the fish did not
die from natural causes. In many cases an

kill occurred until it is too late to identify a
specific pollution agent due to the

In 1973, pollution from unknown opera-
tions was responsible for 125 reports
(Figure 2). The source of pollution was
unidentified for approximately 17 percent
of all reports received. In 1972, pollution
from unknown operations was responsible
for 163 reports; the source of pollution was
unidentifiable in approximately 21 percent
of all reports received.

... sewerage systems operations was the lead-
ing killer of fish in 1973 according to State
reports. Figure 5 shows how many fish were
killed by each kind of pollution source.
Regional Data...
Table 9 summarizes the reported
number of pollution-caused fish kill inci-
dents and pollution source operations
within each Environmental Protection
Agency Region. This table permits a com-
parison of the frequency of reported in-
cidents in different sections of the U.S.
due to different pollution sources. Figures
6 through 15 and bar charts for each
Environmental Protection Agency Region.
These charts indicate the percent of re-
ported incidents within a given region for
individual sources of pollution, and also
list the States within each respective
region. Figures in the charts are derived
from Table 9.
Agricultural Operations
In 1973, pesticides in Region IV (34
reports) was the most frequently reported
individual source of pollution under agri-
cultural operations for any of the ten re-
gions. In 1972, manure-silage drainage in
Region VII (18 reports) was reported most
frequently for all regions.
In 1973, pesticides were responsible for
6 reported incidents in Region 1,24 reported
incidents in Region VI, and 7 reported
incidents in Region IX, making it also the
leading agricultural source of reported
fish kill incidents for all regions combined.
10
-------
Table 9 summarizes the number of reported
pollution-caused fish kill incidents by individual
source of pollution for each EPA region. Region
VIII reported the smallest number of fish kill
incidents (12 reports) while Region V (171 re-
ports) led in the number of reported incidents.
In 1972, pesticides were also the leading
agricultural source of reported incidents
for all regions combined. Manure-silage
drainage was the second most frequently
reported pollution source (52 reports).
Almost half of these reports (22) came
from Region V.
In 1973, fertilizers were reported as the
pollution source in 18 fish kill incidents
from Regions II, IV, V, VII, IX, and X, but
represented only 11 percent of the agri-
cultural operations total. In 1972, fertilizers
were the pollution source reported in 10
fish kill incidents from Regions III, V,
VII, and VIII, but represented only 8.8
percent of the total for agricultural
operations.
The total number of reported pollution-
caused fish kill incidents from agricultural
operations increased from 113 reported
incidents in 1972 to 161 in 1973, a difference
of 48 reported incidents. Pesticides, with
an increase of 31 reports, were responsible
for 65 percent of the increase.
Municipal Operations
In 1973, sewerage systems in all regions
was the most frequently reported indi-
vidual source of pollution under municipal
operations, totalling 115 reported fish kill
incidents. Regions IV, V, VI, and VIII
accounted for 89 reported incidents, or
61 percent of all pollution-caused fish kill
incidents resulting from municipal
operations.

In 1972, sewerage systems was also the
most frequently reported pollution source,
totalling 131 reported pollution-caused fish
kill incidents. Regions III, IV, V and VI
accounted for 99 reported incidents, or
76 percent of all reported incidents.
In 1973, the total number of reported
pollution-caused fish kill incidents for
sewerage systems was 115 incidents, while
the 1972 total was 131 incidents, a 12 per-
cent decrease. Significant changes oc-
curred in Regions II, III, and VI, where
the number of reported incidents de-
creased from 48 incidents in 1972 to 26
incidents in 1973, reflecting a 54 percent
change.
Industrial Operations
In 1973, industrial operations accounted
for more pollution-caused fish kill incidents
(196) than any other pollution source opera-
tion, an increase of 7 reported incidents
from the 189 incidents reported in 1972, less
than a 4 percent change.
In 1973, chemicals and petroleum in
Region III (10 and 11 reports respectively)
were the most frequently reported indi-
vidual sources of pollution under indus-
trial operations for any given region, and
chemicals (39 reports) was the most
frequently reported individual source of
pollution for all regions combined.
In 1972, petroleum in Region III (14
reports) was the most frequently reported
individual source of pollution under indus-
trial operations for any given region.
Transportation Operations
In 1973, transportation operations (65
reports for all regions) had the smallest
number of reported fish kill incidents of
any major pollution source operation.
The 11 reported incidents for pipeline
from Region V represented the largest
number of reports for any single source
of pollution within the transportation oper-
ations category, or 17 percent of the total
reports. Truck operations, an individual
source of pollution, accounted for 48
percent of the total incidents for all regions
under transportation operations.
In 1972, transportation operations (56
reports for all regions) also had the
smallest number of reported fish kill
incidents of any major pollution source
operations. Truck operations, under this
category, accounted for 28 reported in-
cidents, or 50 percent of the total.
Other Operations
Other operations are a general category
for those identifiable sources of pollution
which do not fall under the other four
categories.
In 1973, Region IV, with 16 reported fish
kill incidents accounted for 29 percent of
the total 56 reported incidents caused by
pollution from other operations. In 1972,
16 fish kill incidents were reported under
Region III: these 16 incidents represented
22 percent of the total 72 fish kill incidents
reported under the other operations
category.
The decrease in reported incidents (16
reports) for other operations from 1972 to
1973 is highlighted by the 77 percent drop
in Region VI (from 13 to 3 reports), and the
64 percent drop in Region V (from 14 to
5 reports). Region IV, however, showed a
300 percent increase (4 to 16 reports)
from 1972 to 1973.
