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
ereservoirs.
•OBJECTIVES
The Survey was designed to develop, in conjunction with state
environmental agencies, information on nutrient sources, concentrations,
jand impact on selected freshwater lakes as a basis for formulating
/comprehensive and coordinated national, regional, and state management
jpractices 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)J, 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
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 EPA
and to augment plans implementation by the states.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT
The staff of the National Eutrophication Survey (Office of
Research & Development, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency)
expresses sincere appreciation to the Kansas State Department of
Health and Environment for professional 'involvement, to the Kansas
National Guard for conducting the tributary sampling phase of
the Survey, and to those Kansas wastewater treatment plant opera-
tors who voluntarily provided effluent samples and flow data.
The staff of the Kansas Division of Environmental Health pro-
vided invaluable lake documentation and counsel during the Survey,
reviewed the preliminary reports, and provided critiques most use-
ful in the preparation of this Working Paper series.
Major General Edward R. Fry, the Adjutant General of Kansas,
and Project Officer Colonel Albin L. Lundquist, who directed the
volunteer efforts of the Kansas National Guardsmen, are also grate-
fully acknowledged for their assistance to the Survey.

I. CONCLUSIONS
A. Trophic Condition:
Survey data indicate Kanopolis Reservoir is potentially
eutrophic. However, the reservoir becomes quite turbid during
periods of runoff, and primary productivity is intermittently
light-limited (Kring, 1977).
This water body ranked tenth in overall trophic quality
when the 15 Kansas reservoirs sampled in 1974 were compared
using a combination of six parameters*. Eight of the reser-
voirs had less median total phosphorus, five had less and one
had the same median dissolved orthophosphorus, eight had less
median inorganic nitrogen, eleven had less mean chlorophyll a^,
and ten had greater mean Secchi disc transparency.
B. Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
The algal assay results indicate Kanopolis Reservoir was
phosphorus limited at the times the samples were taken (04/12/74
and 10/01/74).
The reservoir data indicate phosphorus limitation at all
sampling times. However, as noted above primary productivity is
light-limited rather than nutrient-limited at times.
* See Appendix A.
-------
C. Nutrient Controllability:
1. Point sources—The total phosphorus inputs of point
sources amounted to 5.2% of the total load to Kanopolis Reservoir
during the sampling year. The City of Ellsworth contributed 2.7%
of the total load; Wilson, 1.2%; Kanopolis, 0.9%; Doranee, 0.4%;
and septic tanks serving shoreline dwellings and a recreational
area added less than 0.1% of the total.
The present phosphorus loading of 6.65 g/m2/yr is over nine
times that proposed by Vollenweider (Vollenweider and Dillon,
1974), as a eutrophic loading (see page 14). Even complete
removal of phosphorus at the point sources would still leave a
loading about nine times the eutrophic level, and it does not
seem likely that point-source phosphorus control would result in
any significant improvement in the trophic condition of the reser-
voir.
2. Non-point sources—Non-point sources added 94.8% of the
total phosphorus load to Kanopolis Reservoir during the sampling
year. The Smoky Hill River contributed 91.3% of the total; Clear
Creek, 0.4%; Sand Creek, less than 0.1%; and ungaged tributaries,
an estimated 2.8%.
The phosphorus export rate of the Smoky Hill River was 4
kg/km2/yr (see page 13). This rate is considerably higher than
the 0.2 kg/km2 rate of this river at the inlet of Cedar Bluff
Reservoir* about 155 kilometers upstream.
Working Paper No. 511.
-------
It is not known whether the higher export rate of the Smoky
Hill River at Kanopolis Reservoir is due to underestimation of
the phosphorus load from the known point sources or is due to
other point sources in the drainage.

III. WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
Kanopolis Reservoir was sampled three times during the open-water
season of 1974 by means of a pontoon-equipped Huey helicopter. Each
time, samples for physical and chemical parameters were collected from
two or more depths at two stations on the reservoir (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 and last visits,
a single 18.9-liter depth-integrated sample was composited for algal
assays. Also each time, a depth-integrated sample was collected from
each of the stations for chlorophyll a_ analysis. The maximum depths
sampled were 9.1 meters at station 1 and 4.6 meters at station 2.
The sampling results are presented in full in Appendix D and are
summarized in the following table.

2. Discussion -
The control yields of the assay alga, Selenastrum capri-
cornutum, indicate that the potential primary productivity
of Kanopolis Reservoir was low in April and moderate in
October. There was a significant growth response in both
assays when phosphorus was added but no such response to the
addition of only nitrogen. These results indicate phosphorus
limitation.
The reservoir data support the assay findings. The mean
inorganic nitrogen to orthophosphorus ratios were 85 to 1 in
April, 37 to 1 in June, and 41 to 1 in October; and phosphorus
limitation would be expected. However, the reservoir is
intermittently light-limited rather than nutrient-limited
(Kring, 1977).

IV. NUTRIENT LOADINGS
(See Appendix E for data)
For the determination of nutrient loadings, the Kansas National
Guard collected monthly near-surface grab samples from each of the
tributary sites indicated on the map (page vi), except for the months
of June and July when two samples were collected at most of the sites.
Sampling was begun in October, 1974, and was completed in September,
1975.
Through an interagency agreement, stream flow estimates for the
year of sampling and a "normalized" or average year were provided by
the Kansas District Office of the U.S. Geological Survey for the
tributary sites nearest the lake.
In this report, nutrient loads for sampled tributaries were
calculated using mean annual concentrations and mean annual flows.
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 mean concen-
trations in Sand Creek at station E-l and the mean annual ZZ flow.
The operator of the Ellsworth wastewater treatment plant pro-
vided monthly effluent samples and corresponding flow data. The
operator of the Wilson wastewater treatment plant provided effluent
samples but could not provide flow data. Therefore, the nutrient
loads for Wilson were estimated at 1.134 P and 3.401 N/capita/year.
-------
11
The towns of Kanopolis and Dorance did not participate, and
nutrient loads from these sources also were estimated at 1.134 P
and 3.401 N kg/capita/year.

F. 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.
