                         FOREWORD
    The National Eutrophication Survey was initiated in 1972 in
response to an Administration commitment to investigate the nation-
wide threat of accelerated eutrophication to fresh water lakes  and
reservoirs.

OBJECTIVES

    The Survey was designed to develop, in conjunction with state
environmental agencies, information on nutrient sources, concentrations,
and impact on selected freshwater lakes as a basis for formulating
comprehensive and coordinated national, regional, and state management
practices relating to point-source discharge reduction and non-point
source pollution abatement in lake watersheds.

ANALYTIC APPROACH

    The mathematical and statistical procedures selected for the
Survey's eutrophication analysis are based on related concepts  that:

        a.  A generalized representation or model relating
    sources, concentrations, and impacts can be constructed.

        b.  By applying measurements of relevant parameters
    associated with lake degradation, the generalized model
    can be transformed into an operational representation of
    a lake, its drainage basin, and related nutrients.

        c.  With such a transformation, an assessment of the
    potential for eutrophication control can be made.

LAKE ANALYSIS

    In this report, the first stage of evaluation of lake and water-
shed data collected from the study lake and its drainage basin  is
documented.  The report is formatted to provide state environmental
agencies with specific information for basin planning [§303(e)], water
quality criteria/standards review [§303(c)L clean lakes [§314(a,b)],
and water quality monitoring [§106 and §305(b)] activities mandated
by the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972.

-------
                                i i i
    Beyond the single lake analysis, broader based correlations
between nutrient concentrations (and loading) and trophic condi-
tion are being made to advance the rationale and data base for
refinement of nutrient water quality criteria for the Nation's
fresh water lakes.  Likewise, multivariate evaluations for the
relationships between land use, nutrient export, and trophic
condition, by lake class or use, are being developed to assist
in the formulation of planning guidelines and policies by EPA
and to augment plans implementation by the states.

I.  CONCLUSIONS
    A.  Trophic Condition:
            Survey data show that Lake Harding is eutrophic.   This  lake
        ranked last in overall  trophic quality when the  14 Georgia  lakes
        sampled in 1973 were compared using a combination  of  six  param-
        eters**.  None of the lakes had higher median total phosphorus,
        median dissolved phosphorus, and median inorganic  nitrogen;  12
        of the lakes had greater mean Secchi  disc transparency; and  eight
                                                i
        had less mean chlorophyll eu  Hypolimnetic dissolved  oxygen  was
        depressed to less than  1.0 mg/1 at station 1  in  August and  at
        station 2 in June and August, 1973.
            Survey limnologists observed algal  blooms in progress at
        stations 1 and 3 in August and noted  the occurrence of small
        beds of rooted aquatic  vegetation in  the shallows  near stations
        2 and 4.
    B.  Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
            Because of signficant losses of phosphorus in  both algal
        assay samples between the time of collection  and the  beginning
        of the assays, the results are not representative  of  conditions
        in the lake at the time the samples were taken (06/11/73).   The

    lake data indicate stations 1, 2, and 3 were  phosphorus  limited,
    and stations 4 and 5 (sampled only once) were nitrogen limited
    in June; stations 1, 2, and 4 were phosphorus limited, and
    station 3 was nitrogen limited in August; and all  stations were
    nitrogen limited in October, 1973.
C.  Nutrient Controllability:
        Attention is called to a significant change  in the
    Chattahoochee River system following completion  of the Survey.
    West Point Dam (see map, page v)  was nearing  completion  by
                      t
    the end of the Survey sampling year; and, at  the time of
    preparation of this Working Paper, at normal  pool  level  the
    West Point Impoundment of the Chattahoochee River is a water
    body of 93.08 km2 with'a volume of 682.120 x  106 m3  (Hall, 1975);
    the calculated mean hydraulic retention time  is  48 days.  The
    construction of this nutrient trap between Lake  Harding  and the
    upstream phosphorus sources (see  page 12) undoubtedly has
    resulted in a much altered phosphorus loading to Lake Harding.
    Therefore, the Lake Harding phosphorus loading data obtained
    during the Survey sampling year are now more  of  historical
    interest than of management significance.
        For example, if the phosphorus retention  of  the new  reser-
    voir is similar to that of Lake Harding during the Survey sampling

-------
 year,  about 50% of the  point  and  non-point  phosphorus load of
 the Chattahoochee  River above West  Point  (one-half of 1,318,550
 kg/yr) will  be  retained; and, in  effect,  this will lower the
 overall  phosphorus loading  to Lake  Harding  by about 47% and
 reduce the  loading rate from  58.7 g/m2/yr (see  page 16) to 30.9
 g/m2/yr.  The reduced loading rate  will still be  about 10 times
 the eutrophic rate, but some  improvement  of the trophic condi-
 tion of Lake Harding should occur with  a  phosphorus reduction
 of that magnitude, particularly in  view of  the  short mean
 hydraulic retention time of 14 days.
     On the  other hand,  it appears inevitable that West Point
 Reservoir will  become eutrophic rather  quickly.  On the basis
 of the morphometric data given above  and  the normalized Chatta-
 hoochee River flow, it  is calculated  that the eutrophic phosphorus
 loading rate of the reservoir is  1.4  g/m2/yr.   With the total
 phosphorus  load measured in the Chattahoochee River during the
'Survey sampling year (1,318,550 kg),  the  reservoir will receive
 phosphorus  at a rate of about 14.2  g/m2/yr  or more than 10 times
 the eutrophic rate.
     Futhermore, if the  proposed diversion to the  Chattahoochee
 River  drainage  basin of the Atlanta metro wastes  now discharged

-------
        to three wastewater treatment plants in the South River drain-
        age basin is implemented (Franzmathes, 1974),  Survey data  indi-
        cate that if the diverted wastes are not treated to remove phos-
        phorus, the Chattahoochee River total phosphorus load will  be
        increased to 1,575,725 kg/yr, and the loading  rate to West Point
        reservoir will be increased from 14.2 g/m2/yr  to 16.9 g/m2/yr.
        Even if an effluent limit of 1 mg/1 total  phosphorus is applied
        to the diverted wastes, about 39,000 kg of phosphorus per  year
        will be added to the load.  Since that load is already excessive,
        any amount of added phosphorus will be too much.
            While the proposed diversion would be expected to benefit
        Jackson Lake to some degree*, the merits of the trade-off  would
        seem to be questionable whether phosphorus removal is provided or
        not.

III.   LAKE WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
      Lake Harding was sampled three  times  during  the open-water season
  of  1973 by means of a pontoon-equipped  Huey  helicopter.  Each time,
  samples for physical and chemical parameters were collected from four
  stations on the lake (five  in June)  and from a number of depths at
  each station (see map, page v).   During each visit, a single depth-
  integrated (4.6 m or near bottom  to  surface) sample was composited
  from the stations for phytoplankton  identification and enumeration;
  and during the first visit, two 18.9-liter depth-integrated samples
  were composited for algal assays  (stations 1, 2, and 3 were combined,
  and stations 4 and 5 were combined).  Also each  time, a depth-integrated
  sample  was collected from each of the stations for chlorophyll a_ analy-
  sis.  The maximum depths sampled  were 31.4 meters at station 1, 14.9
  meters  at station 2, 13.7 meters  at  station  3, 8.2 meters at station 4,
  and 3.4 meters at station 5 (station 5  was omitted after the first samp-
  ling due to insufficient depth).
      The results obtained are presented  in full in Appendix D and are

C.  Limiting Nutrient Study:
        There was a loss of about 28% of the total  phosphorus in
    one assay sample and over 50% in the other sample,  and the
    algal  assay results are not representative of conditions in
    the lake at the time the samples were taken (06/11/73).
        The lake data indicate a somewhat unusual  temporal  and
    spatial combination of limiting nutrients, although it will be
    noted  that the stations nearest the nutrient point  sources
    tended toward nitrogen limitation while the stations further
    away tended toward phosphorus limitation.
        Following is a tabulation of the mean  inorganic nitrogen
    to orthophosphorus ratios for each of the  stations  and sampling

    Nitrogen limitation, as indicated by 1n-lake nitrogen to
phosphorus ratios, does not necessarily suggest that the trophic
condition of the lake can be improved by controlling nitrogen
inputs.  The apparent condition of nitrogen-limitation in Lake
Harding resulted from excessive point-source phosphorus inputs
as indicated by the proximity of the N-limited stations to  the
point sources.  The reversal of the enriched condition, therefore,
depends upon phosphorus control, not nitrogen control.

IV.   NUTRIENT LOADINGS
     (See Appendix E for data)
     For the determination  of nutrient  loadings,  the  Georgia National
 Guard collected monthly near-surface grab  samples  from each of the
 tributary sites indicated  on the  map (page vi),  except for the high
 runoff months of January and February  when two samples were collected.
 Sampling was begun in March, 1973,  and was completed in  February, 1974.
     Through an interagency agreement,  stream  flow  estimates for the
 year of sampling and a "normalized" or average year  were provided by
 the Georgia District Office of the  U.S.  Geological Survey for the
 tributary sites nearest the lake.
     In this report, nutrient loads  for sampled tributaries were deter-
 mined by using a modification  of  a  U.S.  Geological Survey computer
 program for calculating stream loadings*.   Nutrient  loads for unsam-
 pled "minor tributaries and immediate  drainage"  ("ZZ" of U.S.G.S.) were
 estimated using the means  of the  nutrient  loads, in  kg/km2/year, at sta-
 tions C-l, D-l, and E-l  and multiplying  the means  by the ZZ area in km2.
     Nutrient loads for the Langdale, AL, and  Pine  Mountain, GA, waste-
 water treatment plants were estimated  at 1.134 kg  P  and 3.401 kg N/
 capita/year.  Loads in the untreated wastes from the communities of
 Lanett and Little Shawmut, AL, and  West  Point, GA, were estimated at
 1.587 kg P and 4.263 kg N/capita/year.
 *  See Working  Paper  No.  175.

                                 12
    The nutrient loads given for tributaries are those measured  minus
the point-source loads within the 40-kilometer limit of the Survey*,
if any.
    In addition to the waste sources listed below, recent Georgia  Water
Quality Control Board publications (Anonymous, 1972b and 1972c)  identify
33 major domestic and 11 major industrial wastewater discharges  to the
Chattahoochee River or its tributaries in the 172 or so stream kilometers
from the Atlanta Water Works intake to West Point Impoundment.   All of.
these sources are outside the 40-kilometer limit of the Survey,  but
their impact on Lake Harding during the Survey sampling year is  evident
in the very high phosphorus export rate of the Chattahoochee River at
station A-2 (see page 16).

E.  Yearly Loading Rates:
        In the following table, the existing phosphorus loading
    rates are compared to those proposed by Vollenweider (Vollen-
    weider and Dillon, 1974).  Essentially, his "dangerous" rate
    is the rate at which the receiving water would become eutrophic
    or remain eutrophic; his "permissible" rate is that which would
    result in the receiving water remaining oligotrophic or becoming
    oligotrophic if morphometry permitted.  A mesotrophic rate would
    be considered one between "dangerous" and "permissible".
        Note that Vollenweider's model may not be applicable to
    water bodies with short hydraulic retention times.
