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)]s water quality criteria/standards review
[§303(cJ], 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.
-------
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.

I. CONCLUSIONS
A. Trophic Condition:
Based upon Survey data and field observations,
Farrington Lake is considered eutrophic. This humic
lake was characterized by abundant aquatic macrophytes,
low Secchi disc transparency, and high nutrient concen-
trations. Chlorophyll a_ values ranged from a low of
1.5 pg/1 in the spring to a high of 16.9 yg/1 in the
summer.
B. Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
Algal assay results indicate that Farrington Lake
is limited by available phosphorus. Spikes with
phosphorus, or phosphorus and nitrogen simultaneously
resulted in increased assay yields. The addition of
nitrogen alone did not produce a growth response. The
mean total inorganic nitrogen to mean orthophosphorus
ratio (N/P) further substantiates these results.
-------
C. Nutrient Controllability:
1. Point Sources -
The only known point sources contributing to
Farrington Lake are septic tanks. They contribute
less than 0.1% of the total phosphorus load.
The calculations of loading based upon available
nutrient concentrations and flow data indicate a net
export of phosphorus and nitrogen, suggesting that
the tributary sampling was inadequate to depict
actual loading and export rates. Additional sampling
and an evaluation of current land use and lakeshore
construction are required before an accurate nutrient
budget for the lake can be determined.
2. Nonpoint Sources -
Essentially all of the phosphorus loading to
Farrington Lake was contributed by nonpoint sources.
The major tributaries contributed 67.5% of the loading,
while the minor tributaries and the ungaged areas con-
tributed 31.0% of the loading.
-------
II. LAKE AND DRAINAGE BASIN CHARACTERISTICS
Lake and drainage basin characteristics are itemized
below. The lake surface area and mean depth were provided
by the State of New Jersy. 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.
A. Lake Morphometry:
1. Surface area: 1.17 km2.

III. LAKE WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
Farrington 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 two stations on
the lake and from a number of depths at each station
(see map, page v). During each visit, depth-integrated
.samples were collected from each station for chlorophyll a^
analysis and phytoplankton identification and enumeration.
During the first visit, 18.9-liter depth-integrated samples
were composited for algal assays. Maximum depths sampled
were 5.5 meters at Station 1 and 3.0 meters at Station 2.
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 a_ determinations are included in III B.
Results of the limiting nutrient study are presented in III C.

2. Discussion -
The control yield of the assay alga, Selenastrum
capricornutum, indicates that the potential for primary
productivity in Farrington Lake was moderately high at
the time of sampling. The lake was phosphorus limited
at that time as indicated by the increased yield of the
test alga in response to an addition of orthophosphorus.
Spikes with phosphorus and nitrogen simultaneously
resulted in a maximum yield. Spikes with nitrogen alone
did not produce any response beyond the control yield.
The N/P ratio of 90/1 during spring sampling further
indicates phosphorus limitation.
-------
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 in July 1973, and was completed in April 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 the 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 Beaverdam Brook
at Station B(l) 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.
