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 freshwater lakes and
reservoirs.
OBJECTIVES
The Survey was designed to develop, in conjunction with state
environmental agencies, information on nutrient sources, concen-
trations, 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 nonpoint source pollution abatement in lake water-
sheds,
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
watershed 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,bj], and water quality monitoring
[§106 and §305(b)] activities mandated by the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972.
-------
iii
Beyond the single lake analysis, broader based correlations
between nutrient concentrations (and loading) and trophic condition
are being made to advance the rationale and data base for refine-
ment of nutrient water quality criteria for the Nation's freshwater
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 the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency and to augment plans implementation by the states.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The staff of the National Eutrophication Survey (Office of
Research and Development, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)

lake documentation and counsel during the Survey, reviewed the
preliminary reports, and provided critiques most useful in the
preparation of this Working Paper series.

I. CONCLUSIONS
A. Trophic Condition:
Field observations and Survey data indicate Budd
Lake is eutrophic. The lake is characterized by high
chlorophyll a_ values, autumn algal blooms, and low
Secchi disc transparency. Nutrient levels and potential
for primary production as measured by algal assay control
yield are high. Field limnologists reported abundant
aquatic macrophytes in the lake.
Budd Lake has a past record of chemical weed controls,
although none are currently being applied. Ketelle and
Uttormark (1971) recommended partial to complete dredging,
together with removal of nutrient contributions, for
rehabilitation of the lake waters.
B. Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
There was a significant loss in nutrients in the
algal assay sample between the time of collection and
sample analysis, so the results are not considered
representative of conditions in the lake at the time
the sample was taken. However, lake data indicate
-------
2
phosphorus limitation during spring and summer, and nitrogen
limitation in the fall.
C. Nutrient Controllability:
The estimated phosphorus for Budd Lake of 0.29 g/mz/yr
exceeds that proposed by Vollenweider (Vollenweider and Dillon,
1974} as "permissible" by 1.4 times, and it is 0.69 times
the "dangerous" level.
There are no known point sources contributing to Budd
Lake. Measured tributaries account for 19.1% of the total
phosphorus load, and the ungaged drainage areas were estimated
to contribute 74.2%.
Determination of surrounding land uses and unknown sources
contributing loading is necessary before recommendations for
lake improvement can be proposed.
-------
II. LAKE AND DRAINAGE BASIN CHARACTERISTICS
Lake and drainage basin characteristics are itemized
below. Lake surface area and mean depth were provided by
the State of New Jersey. Tributary flow data were provided
by the New Jersey District Office of the U.S. Geological
Survey (USGS) (outlet drainage area includes the lake surface
area). Mean hydraulic retention time was obtained by
dividing the lake volume by the mean flow of the outlet.
Precipitation values were estimated by methods as outlined
in National Eutrophication Survey (NES) Working Paper No. 175.
A table of metric/English conversions is included as
Appendix A.

III. LAKE WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
Budd 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 one station on the lake and from a number of
depths at that station (see map, page v). During each visit,
depth-integrated samples were collected from the station for
chlorophyll £ analysis and phytoplankton identification and
enumeration. During the first visit, a 18.9-liter depth-
integrated sample was composited for algal assays. Maximum
depth sampled was 2.4 meters at Station 1. For a more
detailed explanation of NES methods, see NES Working Paper
No. 175.
The results obtained are presented in full in Appendix C
and are summarized in III A for waters at the surface and at
the maximum depth for each site. Results of the phytoplankton
counts and chlorophyll £ determinations are included in III B.
. Results of the limiting nutrient study are presented in III C.

C. Limiting Nutrient Study:
There was a significant loss of nutrients in the assay
samples between the time of collection and the beginning of
the assay, and the results are not indicative of conditions
in the lake at the time the sample was taken. However, the
levels of nutrients indicate that potentially Budd Lake had
a high level of primary productivity.
The lake data indicate phosphorus limitation during
spring and summer sampling times, with mean total inorganic
nitrogen to mean orthophosphorus ratios {N/P) of 35/1 and
19/1, respectively. The N/P ratio of 10/1 during fall sampling
indicates nitrogen limitation at that time.
-------
IV. NUTRIENT LOADINGS
(See Appendix D for data)
For the determination of nutrient loadings, the New
Jersey 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 1n July 1973, and was completed 1n July 1974.
Through an interagency agreement, stream flow estimates
for the year of sampling and a "normalized" or average year
were provided by the New Jersey District Office of USGS for
the tributary sites nearest the lake.
In this report, nutrient loads for sampled tributaries
were determined by using a modification of a USGS computer
program for calculating stream loadings. Nutrient loads
indicated for tributaries are those measured minus known
point source loads, if any.
Nutrient loadings for unsampled "minor tributaries and
immediate drainage" ("ZZ" of USGS) were estimated by using
the mean annual concentrations in Unnamed Creeks at
Stations B(1) and C(t) and mean annual ZZ flow.

D. 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.
