                         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)]s 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.

-------
                                 111
    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, multlvariate 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 indicate that Deer Creek Reservoir is  eutrophic.
        It ranked ninth in overall trophic quality when the 20 Ohio lakes
        sampled in 1973 were compared using a combination of six parameters*.
        Nine of the lakes had less median total phosphorus, 17 had less
        median dissolved phosphorus, 18 had less median inorganic nitro-
        gen, seven had greater mean Secchi disc transparency,  but only
        one had less mean chlorophyll a_.  Marked depression of dissolved
        oxygen with depth occurred at station 1 in August and  October.
            Field limnologists noted algal blooms at all  stations during
        the spring sampling (April, 1973).
            It is reported that suspension of colloidal clay is a problem
        in this reservoir (Ketelle and Uttormark, 1971).
    B.  Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
            The algal assay results indicate the reservoir was phosphorus
        limited at the time the sample was collected (04/28/73).   The lake
        data indicate phosphorus limitation at the other sampling times
        as well.
    C.  Nutrient Controllability:
            1.  Point sources—During the sampling year,  Deer  Creek Reser-
        voir received a total  phosphorus load more than four times that
* See Appendix A.

                             2
proposed by Vollenweider (Vollenweider and Dillon,  1974)  as  a
eutrophic loading1(see page 12).  The actual  loading may  even
be somewhat higher since conservative estimates were made of
the phosphorus contributions of the two Deer Creek  State  Park
wastewater treatment plants because of uncertainty  as to  pop-
ulations served.  Also, no assessment was made of the probable
direct phosphorus contributions resulting from the  heavy
recreational use of the reservoir.
    It is estimated that the known point sources contributed
nearly 37% of the total phosphorus load during the  sampling  year.
While even complete removal of phosphorus at the point sources
would still leave a loading more than two times the eutrophic
loading, it is likely that a high degree of phosphorus removal
would at least reduce the incidence and severity of nuisance
algal blooms, particularly in view of the rather short mean
hydraulic retention time of the reservoir and the questionable
applicability of Vollenweider's model.
    2.  Non-point sources—The non-point phosphorus contributions
of the Deer Creek Reservoir tributaries amounted to about 63% of
the total phosphorus load during the sampling year.  However, the
phosphorus export rates of the streams were relatively low (see
page 11) and compare well with unimpacted Ohio streams sampled
elsewhere.

III.   LAKE WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
      Deer Creek Reservoir was sampled three times  during  the  open-water
  season of 1973 by means of a pontoon-equipped Huey  helicopter.   During
  the April and October visits, samples for physical  and chemical  param-
  eters were collected from three stations  on the lake  and from one or
  more depths at each station {see map, page v).  Only  stations 1  and 2
  were sampled in August because of low water levels.   During  each visit,
  a single depth-integrated {4.6 m or near  bottom to  surface)  sample was
  composited from the sampled stations for  phytoplankton identification
  and enumeration; and during the April visit,  a  single 18.9-liter depth-
  integrated sample was composited for algal  assays.  The  maximum  depths
  sampled were 10.4 meters at station 1, 4.3 meters at  station 2,  and
  1.2 meters at station 3.
      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 Deer Creek Reservoir was high at the time the sample was
        collected.  Also, the increased yield when orthophosphorus
        was added indicates that the reservoir was phosphorus limited
        at that time.  Note that the addition of only nitrogen did
        not result in a significant increase in yield as compared  with
        that of the control.
            The reservoir data also indicate phosphorus limitation.
        At all sampling times, the mean inorganic nitrogen to ortho-
        phosphorus ratios were 42 to 1 or greater.

IV.   NUTRIENT LOADINGS
     (See Appendix E for data)
     For the determination of nutrient loadings, the Ohio 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  April when two  samples were collected.
 Sampling was begun in May, 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 Ohio 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 shown are
 those measured minus point-source loads, if any.
     Nutrient loads for unsampled  "minor tributaries and immediate
 drainage" ("II" of U.S.G.S.) were estimated using the means of the
 nutrient loads, in kg/km2/year, at  stations B-l and C-l and multiply-
 ing the means by the II area in km2.
     The operator of the Mount  Sterling  wastewater treatment plant
 provided monthly effluent samples and corresponding flow data.  The
 operators of London and Deer Creek  State Park plants did not parti-
 cipate in the Survey, and nutrient  loads were estimated at 1.134 kg P
 and 3.401 kg N/capita/year.

    E.  Yearly Loadings:

             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 oligo-

        trophic if morphometry permitted.  A mesotrophic 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.

        Vollenweider phosphorus loadings
         (g/m2/yr) based on mean depth and mean
         hydraulic retention time of Deer Creek Reservoir:

            "Dangerous"  (eutrophic loading)          1.28
            "Permissible"  (oligotrophic loading)     0.64
* There was an apparent loss of nitrogen during the sampling year.   This
  may have been due to nitrogen fixation in the lake, solubilization of
  previously sedimented nitrogen, recharge with nitrogen-rich ground water,
  unknown and unsampled point sources discharging directly to the lake, or
  underestimation of the nitrogen loads from the Deer Creek Park wastewater
  treatment plants.  Whatever the cause, a similar loss of nitrogen has
  occurred at Shagawa Lake, Minnesota, which has been intensively studied
  by EPA's National Eutrophication and Lake Restoration Branch (Malueg
  et al., 1975).
