                               FOREWORD
     The National Eutrophicatlon 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,b)], and water quality  monitoring
[§106 and §305(b)] activities mandated by the Federal  Water
Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972.

-------
     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, multivarlate 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.

                  REPORT  ON  LAKE  BISTINEAU,  LOUISIANA
                            STORET  NO.  2203

I.    CONCLUSIONS
     A.    Trophic  Condition:*
               Survey  data indicate that  Lake  Bistineau  is  eutrophic,
          i.e., nutrient  rich  and highly  productive.   Whether  such
          nutrient enrichment  is  to be  considered  beneficial or  dele-
          terious  is  determined by  its  actual  or potential  impact upon
          designated  beneficial water uses of  each lake.  Of the 19
          Louisiana lakes sampled in 1974, 9 had higher  median total
          phosphorus  or inorganic nitrogen levels, and 6 had higher
          median orthophosphorus  values than Lake  Bistineau.   Low Secchi
          disc  visibility and  high  potential for primary productivity,
          as  measured  by  algal  assay control yield, were reported.
          Although there  were.no  visible  algal  blooms, there were emer-
          gent  and submerged macrophytes  noted and chlorophyll a^ levels
          ranged from 3.0 yg/1  to 46.6  yg/1  through the  seasonal sampling,
               Shampine (1971)  reports  that  attempts  have been made  in
          recent years to control the weed problem in  Lake  Bistineau by
          lowering the water level  in the late spring  and keeping it low
          until fall.

     *See Appendix E.

-------
B.   Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
          Algal assay results indicate that Lake Bistineau was  nitrogen
     limited during the spring.   Spikes with nitrogen or nitrogen  and
     phosphorus simultaneously resulted in increases of assay yield.
     Addition of phosphorus alone did not stimulate a growth response.
     The mean inorganic nitrogen to orthophosphorus (N/P) ratios  in  the
     lake samples were 11/1 or less on all sampling occasions,  also
     suggesting nitrogen limitation.
C.   Nutrient Controllability:
     1.   Point sources -
                                                               2
               The mean annual phosphorus loading of 1.67 g P/m /yr  to
          Lake Bistineau is in excess of the eutrophic level proposed by
          Vollenweider (1975) and four times greater than the oligotrophic
          level for a lake with such volume and retention time.  The
          annual phosphorus load from the five known point sources was
          estimated to be 24.2% of the total load reaching Lake Bistineau.
          The Minden #1 plant contributed 5.9%, Minden #2 contributed 6.6%,
          Springhill contributed an estimated 8.2% and the remaining two
          plants an estimated 3.5% of the total phosphorus load.
               In general, few lakes are nitrogen limited as a  result of
          low nitrogen.  Rather, excessive phosphorus levels shift limi-
          tation to nitrogen or other factors.  Regardless of the  primary
          nutrient limitation suggested by either algal assay or  nutrient

-------
     ratios, the most feasible approach to nutrient control,  if
     desirable, is through available phosphorus  control  technology
     and subsequent establishment of phosphorus  limitation within
     the water body.
2.   Nonpoint sources -
          The mean annual  phosphorus load from measured  tributaries
     amounted to 68.8% of the total  load to Lake Bistineau.   Bayou
     Dorcheat contributed 54.0% of the total  annual nutrient  load
     and ungaged tributaries were estimated to have contributed
     5.6%.   Background loading to Boone Creek is approximately four
     times  higher than the values encountered for unimpacted  streams
     This high loading is probably attributable  to the fact that
     Boone  Creek flows through the Louisiana  Ordnance Plant.

-------
II.   LAKE AND DRAINAGE BASIN CHARACTERISTICS
          Lake and drainage basin characteristics are itemized  below.
     Lake morphometry data was provided by the State of Louisiana.
     Tributary flow data were provided bythe Louisiana District Office
     of the U.S.  Geological Survey (USGS)  (outlet drainage area in-
     cludes the Take surface area).   Mean  hydraulic retention time
     was obtained by dividing the lake volume by the mean  flow  of the
     outlet.   Precipitation values are estimated by methods as  out-
     lined 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



          Lake Bistineau was sampled three times  during  the  open-



     water season of 1974 by means of a pontoon-equipped Huey  heli-



     copter.   Each time, samples  for physical  and chemical parameters



     were collected from four stations on  the  lake and from  one or



     more depths at each station  (see map, page  v).   During  each



     visit, depth-integrated samples were  collected from each  station



     for chlorophyll ^analysis and phytoplankton identification and



     enumeration.  During the first and last visits,  18.9-liter depth-



     integrated samples were composited for algal assays.  Maximum



     depths sampled were 1.8 meters at Station 01, 3.4 meters  at



     Station  02, 3.4 meters at Station 03, and 1.5 meters at Station 04,



     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 capri-
     cornutum, indicates that the potential  for primary production
     was high in Lake Bistineau during spring sampling.   A response
     in assay yield to the addition of nitrogen as well  as the lack
     of response to the addition of phosphorus  indicates nitrogen
     limitation.  Maximum yield was achieved with the simultaneous
     addition of both nutrients.
          It should be noted that significant chemical  changes
     took place in Louisiana lake samples between collection and
     algal  assay.  The assay data should be  considered  in this
     context and until such differences are  resolved, used with
     caution for any predictions of actual  lake conditions.   Such
     chemical changes are likely to alter the control yield as well
     as modifying the N/P ratio.  The autumn algal assay results have
     not been included in this report as these  substantial changes
     in nutrient levels have removed their information  value.
          The N/P ratios in the field samples of 11/1 or less  on all
     sampling occasions suggest primary limitation by nitrogen (a
     mean N/P ratio of 14/1 or more generally reflects  phosphorus
     limitation).

IV.   NUTRIENT LOADING
     (See appendix D for data)
          For the determination  of nutrient  loadings,  the  Louisiana
     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, March,  and  April when
     two samples were collected.   Sampling was  begun in  June 1974, and
     was completed in May 1975.
          Through an interagency agreement,  stream  flow  estimates for
     the year of sampling and a  "normalized" or average  year were pro-
     vided by the Louisiana District Office  of  the  USGS  for  the  tribu-
     tary 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  of the nutrient loads (in kg/km^/year)  at Stations
     B-l, E-l, and G-l  at Clarke Bayou, Brushy  Creek,  and  Toulon
     Bayou,  respectively, and multiplying the means  by the ZZ area in
     km2.

F.    Yearly Loadings:
          In the following table,  the existing phosphorus  annual
     loading is compared to the relationship proposed by Vollenweider
     (1975).  Essentially, his "eutrophic"  loading is that at which
     the receiving waters would become eutrophic or remain eutrophic;
     his "oligotrophic" loading is that which would result in the
     receiving water remaining oligotrophic or becoming  oligotrophic
     if morphometry permitted.  A  "mesotrophic" loading  would be
     considered one between "eutrophic" and "oligotrophic".
          Note that Vollenweider's model may not apply to  lakes with
     short hydraulic retention times or in  which light penetration  is
     severely restricted by high concentrations of suspended solids
     in the surface waters.
