                               FOREWORD
     The National Eutrophicatlon Survey was Initiated 1n  1972  1n
response to an Administration commitment to Investigate the  nation-
wide threat of accelerated eutrophicatlon 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.

-------
                                    Ill
     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:*
               Survey data  indicate Cotile Reservoir is  meso-eutrophic.
          The lake is characterized by  moderate Secchi disc  transparen-
          cy (mean 146 cm), and low potential  for primary production  as
          measured by algal assay  control  yield.   Chlorophyll  a_ values
          ranged from 6.3 yg/1  in  the fall  to 18.5 yg/1  in the spring
          with a mean of 12.6 yg/1.  Of the 19 Louisiana lakes sampled
          in 1974, 15 had higher median total  phosphorus, 9  had greater
          median inorganic  nitrogen, and 11  had higher median  ortho-
          phosphorus than Cotile Lake.
               Survey limnologists reported no problem conditions  on
          this lake.
     B.    Rate-Limiting  Nutrient:
               Algal assay results indicate that Cotile  Reservoir  was
          limited by available phosphorus  levels.  Spikes with phosphorus
          or nitrogen and phosphorus simultaneously resulted in increases
          in assay yield.  Additions of nitrogen alone did not stimulate
          a growth response.   The  ratios of available nitrogen to  ortho-
          phosphorus (N/P)  in sampled waters,  however, suggest nitrogen
          limitation on  all sampling occasions.
     *See Appendix E.

C.   Nutrient. Controllability:
     1.   Point  sources  -
               There  were no known point source.s. impacting Cotile Reser-
          voir.   However, loading calculations: based upon available
          nutri.ent  concentrations and flow data yield an. apparent net
          export of" both phosphorus and nitrogen from the- lake.,  This
          export, could be due to 1) undetected discharges reaching the
          lake from unknown  industrial  or muni.ci.pal sources, 2.). loading
          rates  for the  Cotile Res.ervoir outlet (G.otile' Greek) which.
          are. inflated by unknown, discharges whic.h enter the stream at
          some paint,  between the. la.ke outlet, and the A-l sampling site,
          or  3)  failure: to sample. Williamson Creek, and. thus underesti-
          mating that tributary's, ungage.d loading, to the lake.  Additional
          sampling  and an evaluation, of current, land use and; lake shore
          construction, are required before a nutrient budget for the
          lake can  be determined,.
     2.   Nonpoint  sources. -
               Nonpoint s.ources contributed the entire known phosphorus
          load to Cotile Lake.   Major tributaries, contributed 44.1% of
          the total load,, and. minor tributaries (ungaged) were estimated
          to  have contributed 52.0%.

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
     Louisiana.  Maximum depth was obtained from contour maps pro-
     vided by the Louisiana Stream Control Commission.  Tributary
     flow data were provided by the Louisiana District Office of the
     U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).  Outlet drainage area includes
     the lake surface area.  Mean hydraulic retention time was ob-
     tained by dividing the lake volume by the mean flow of the out-
     let.  Precipitation values are 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
          Cotile Reservoir 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 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  enu-
     meration.  During the first and last visits, 18.9-liter depth-
     integrated samples were composited for algal assays.   Maximum
     depths sampled were 4.6 meters at  Station  01 and  4.6  meters  at
     Station  02.  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 maxi-
     mum 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.

     2.   Discussion -
               The control yield of the' assay alga, Selenastrum capri-
          comutum. indicates that the potentia.1 for primary productivity
          was low in Cotile Reservoir during the spring sampling season.
          Increased growth of the test alga in response to an addition of
          orthophosphorus indicates the Take was phosphorus limited when
          sampled.  Spikes with nitrogen and phosphorus simultaneously
          resulted in maximum yield.
               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 prediction  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 because
          these substantial changes in nutrient levels have removed their
          information value.
               The N/P ratios in the field samples were 9/1 in the spring,
          13/1  in.the summer, and 5/1 in the fall, suggesting nitrogen limi-
          tation.

     (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), ex-
     cept 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 a USGS computer program for
     calculating stream loadings.   Nutrient  loads indicated for tribu-
     taries are those measured minus known point source  loads, if  any.
          Nutrient loadings for  unsampled "minor tributaries and imme-
     diate drainage" ("ZZ" of USGS) were estimated  by  using the mean
     annual nutrient loads, in kg/km^/yr, in Dyer Creek, Hemphill  Creek,
     and Indian Creek at Stations B-l, C-l,  and  D-l, and multiplying
     the means by the ZZ area in

E.    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.
                             Total Yearly
                          Phosphorus Loading
                               (g/m2/yr)
     Estimated loading for Cotile Reservoir                      0.47
     Vollenweider's "eutrophic" loading                          0.15
     Vollenweider's "oligotrophic" loading                       0.08
