                          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, 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)], 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
fresh water 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.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

     The staff of the National Eutrophication Survey (Office of
Research & Development, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency)
expresses sincere appreciation to the Texas Water Quality Board
for professional involvement, to the Texas National Guard for
conducting the tributary sampling phase of the Survey, and to
those Texas wastewater treatment plant operators who voluntarily
provided effluent samples.

     Hugh C.  Yantis, Jr., Executive Director of the Texas Water
Quality Board, and John B. Latchford, Jr., Director, and the staff
of the Field Operations Division provided invaluable lake documen-
tation and counsel during the Survey, reviewed the preliminary
reports, and provided critiques most useful in the preparation of
this Working Paper series.

     Major General Thomas Bishop, the Adjutant General of Texas,
and Project Officer Colonel William L. Seals, who directed the
volunteer efforts of the Texas National Guardsmen,  are also grate-
fully acknowledged for their assistance to the Survey.

I.  CONCLUSIONS
    A.  Trophic Condition:
            Survey data indicate that Somerville Lake is eutrophic;  i.e.,
        well supplied with nutrients and quite productive.  Whether
        nutrient enrichment is beneficial  or deleterious depends on  the
        actual  or potential effect on the uses of the lake.  In this
        regard, no nuisance conditions are known to personnel  of the
        Texas Water Quality Board and there is little or no impairment
        of the designated beneficial uses of this water body.
            Somerville Lake ranked thirty-first when the 39 Texas reser-
        voirs sampled in 1974 were compared using a combination of six
        parameters*.   Twenty-seven of the reservoirs had less  median total
        phosphorus, 25 had less and three had the same median  dissolved
        orthophosphorus, 17 had less median inorganic nitrogen, 37 had
        less mean chlorophyll  a^, and 29 had greater mean Secchi disc
        transparency.  Depression of dissolved oxygen with depth occurred
        at station 2 in May and at station 1 in August.
            Survey limnologists observed submerged aquatic plants at sta-
        tions 1 and 2 in May,  and blue-green algae were dominant in  the
        August phytoplankton sample.
    B.  Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
            The results of the algal assay indicate that Somerville  Lake
        was phosphorus limited in March but nitrogen limited in November.
* See Appendix A.

-------
            The lake data indicate phosphorus limitation in March and
        May and nitrogen limitation in November.
    C.  Nutrient Controllability:
            1.  Point sources—The point-source phosphorus  contributions
        amounted to 15.1% of the total load reaching Somerville Lake
        during the sampling year.  Lexington contributed 1.8% of the
        total; Giddings, 6.4%; Rocky Creek Park,  4.3%,  and  Big Creek
        Park added 2.6% of the total.   In addition,  the City of Rockdale
        is in the Lake Sommerville drainage (Wyatt,  1976).   However, this
        source is well beyond the 40-kilometer Survey limit*, and phosphorus
        contributions from this source probably are  not significant as  indi-
        cated by the relatively low export rate of East Yegua Creek  (see
        discussion below).
            The present phosphorus loading of 0.54 g/m2/yr  is only a little
        more than that proposed by Vollenweider (Vollenweider and Dillon,
        1974) as a eutrophic loading (see page 16).   However, the data
        indicate that Somerville Lake is eutrophic,  and it  is possible
        that the point-source phosphorus contributions  directly to the  lake
        were underestimated.  Further study is needed to quantify the point-
        source phosphorus contribution to Somerville Lake.
            2.  Non-point sources—Non-point sources contributed 84.9%
        of the total phosphorus load during the sampling year.  Middle
        and East Yegua Creek contributed 30.9% and 12.5% of the load,
        respectively.
* See Working Paper No. 175, "...Survey Methods,  1973-1976".

-------
    The phosphorus export rates of Middle Yegua Creek,  East
Yegua Creek, Nails Creek, and Cedar Creek were 7,  4,  14,  and 10
kg/km2/yr, respectively.  The rates of Middle and  East  Yegua
Creek are quite comparable to the rates of tributaries  of other
reservoirs in the vicinity, but the export rates of Nails Creek
and Cedar Creek are significantly higher.  These higher rates
may be due to unidentified point sources rather than to non-
point source inputs.

III.   LAKE WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
      Somerville Lake was sampled four times in 1974 by means of a pontoon-
  equippped Huey helicopter.   Each time,  samples for physical and chemical
  parameters were collected from two or more depths at three stations  on
  the lake (see map,  page vi).  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 composited
  from each of the stations for chlorophyll a_ analysis.  The maximum depths
  sampled were 7.9 meters at station 1, 3.4 meters at station 2, and 1.5
  meters at station 3.
      The sampling results are presented  in full in Appendix D and are sum-
  marized in the following table (the August nutrient samples were not
  preserved properly and were not analyzed).

2.  Discussion -
        The control yields of the assay alga, Selenastrum capri-
    cornutum, indicate that the potential primary productivity
    of Somerville Lake was high when the samples were collected
    (03/14/74 and 11/06/74).  In the March sample, the increased
    yield resulting from the addition of orthophosphorus indicates
    phosphorus limitation at that time.  However, in the November
    sample, the relatively small but significant increase in yield
    when nitrogen was added and lack of growth response when* only
    orthophosphorus was added indicate nitrogen limitation.
        The lake data support the assay findings.  The mean inor-
    ganic nitrogen to orthophosphorus ratios were 15 to 1 in March,
    25 to 1 in May, and 5 to 1 in November.

IV.   NUTRIENT LOADINGS
     (See Appendix E for data)
     For the determination of nutrient loadings,  the Texas  National
 Guard collected monthly near-surface grab samples  from  each of  the
 tributary sites indicated on the map (page vi),  except  for the  month
 of April when two samples were collected.   Sampling was begun in
 September,  1974, and was completed  in August,  1975.
     Through an interagency agreement,  stream flow  estimates for the
 year of sampling and a "normalized"  or average year were provided by
 the Texas 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" ("ZZ" of U.S.G.S.)  were estimated using  the mean concen-
 trations in Middle Yegua Creek at station B-l  and  the mean annual
 ZZ flow. Nutrient loads for the Brenham aqueduct  were  calculated
 using the mean flow provided by the  District office of  the U. S.
 Army Corps  of Engineers (Howard,  1976) and the mean nutrient concen-
 trations measured in Yegua Creek at  station A-l.
     The operators of the Lexington,  Giddings,  Rocky Creek  State Park,
 and Big Creek State Park treatment plants  did  not  participate;  nutrient
 loads from  these sources were  estimated at 1.134 kg P and  3.401 kg
 N/capita/year,  and flows were  estimated at 0.3785  m3/capita/day.

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 morphemetry 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.
