                          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)>, 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.

-------
                                 m
    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.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT

I.  CONCLUSIONS
    A.  Trophic Condition:
            Survey data indicate that Oliver Lake is  mesotrophic.   It
        ranked second in overall trophic quality when the  27  Indiana
        lakes sampled in 1973 were compared using a combination  of  six
        parameters*.  None of the other  lakes had less median total
        phosphorus, three had less median dissolved phosphorus,  14  had
        less median inorganic nitrogen,  none of the others had less
        mean chlorophyll a^ and only three had greater mean Secchi  disc
        transparency.  Marked depression of dissolved oxygen  with depth
        occurred in August and October.
            Survey limnologists noted submerged and emergent  macrophytes
        in the shallows but no concentrations of algae.
    B.  Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
            The algal assay results indicate that Oliver Lake was phos-
        phorus limited at the time the sample was collected (05/04/73).
        The lake data indicate phosphorus limitation  at all sampling
        times.
    C.  Nutrient Controllability:
            1.  Point sources—No known  municipal or  industrial  point
        sources impacted Oliver Lake during the sampling year.   Lakeshore
* See Appendix A.

-------
                             2
septic tanks were estimated to have contributed 6.2% of the  input,
but a shoreline survey would be needed to determine the signifi-
cance of these sources.
    The present phosphorus loading of 0.16 g/m2/yr is less than
that proposed by Vollenweider (Vollenweider and Dillon, 1974)
as an oligotrophic loading (see page 11).  Because Oliver Lake
is phosphorus limited, all phosphorus inputs should be held  to
a minimum to maintain the high trophic quality of this water body.
    2.  Non-point sources—Over 93% of the total  phosphorus  input
to Oliver Lake came from non-point sources during the sampling
year.  The 01 in Lake outlet contributed 29.2% and Dove Creek 25.0%
of the input.  The ungaged tributaries were estimated to have
contributed 29.2% of the total phosphorus load.

III.   LAKE WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
      Oliver Lake 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 a num-
  ber of depths at one station on the lake (see map,  page  v).  During
  each visit, a single depth-integrated (4.6 m to surface)  sample was
  collected from the stations for phytoplankton identification and enumer-
  ation, and a similar sample was taken for chlorophyll ^analysis.
  During the first visit, a single 18.9-liter depth-integrated sample
  was collected for algal assays.  The maximum depth  sampled was 24.4
  meters.
      The sampling results are presented in full  in Appendix D and are
  summarized in the following table.

    2.  Discussion -
            The control yield  of the assay  alga, Selenastrum capri-
        cornutum, indicates that the potential  primary productivity
        of Oliver Lake was low at the  time  the sample was collected
        (05/04/73).   A significant  increase in yield resulted when
        only phosphorus was added,  but the  addition  of nitrogen alone
        did not result in an increase  in yield;  hence, phosphorus
        limitation is indicated.
            The lake data also indicate limitation by phosphorus;
        the mean inorganic nitrogen/orthophosphorus  ratios were 52/1
        or greater at all sampling  times.

-------
IV.   NUTRIENT LOADINGS
     (See Appendix E for data)
     For the determination of nutrient loadings,  the  Indiana National
 Guard collected monthly near-surface grab  samples  from each of the
 tributary sites indicated on the map (page v), except for the high
 runoff months of February and March  when two  samples were collected.
 Sampling was begun in June, 1973, and was  completed  in May, 1974.
     Through an interagency agreement, stream  flow  estimates for the
 year of sampling and a "normalized"  or average year were provided by
 the Indiana District Office of the U.S. Geological Survey for the
 tributary sites nearest the lake.
     In this report, nutrient loads for sampled tributaries were
 determined by using a modification of a U.S.  Geological Survey computer
 program for calculating stream loadings*.   Nutrient  loads for unsampled
 "minor tributaries and immediate drainage" ("II" of  U.S.G.S.) were esti-
 mated using the nutrient loads, in kg/km2/year,  at station B-l and multi-
 plying by the II area in km2.
     All  estimated point-source phosphorus  loads  were reduced by 50% to
 adjust for the phosphate detergent ban in  effect in  Indiana since Jan-
 uary, 1972.

E.  Yearly Loads:
        In the following table,  the existing phosphorus loadings
    are compared to those proposed by  Vollenweider  (Vollenweider
    and Dillon, 1974).   Essentially, his  "dangerous" loading is
    one at which the receiving water would  become eutrophic or
    remain eutrophic;  his "permissible" loading  is  that which
    would result in the  receiving water remaining oligotrophic
    or becoming oligotrophic  if  morphometry permitted.  A meso-
    trophic loading 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.
                             Total Phosphorus       Total Nitrogen
    	Total   Accumul e ted     Total   Accumulated
    grams/mVyr            0.16       0.09        1$.7       6.9
    Vollenweider phosphorus loadings
     (g/m2/yr) based on  mean  depth and mean
     hydraulic retention time of Oliver Lake:
        "Dangerous"  (eutrophic  loading)                0.44
        "Permissible"   (oligotrophic loading)           0.22
