                          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,
a.nd 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 [f»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 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)
express sincere appreciation to the Montana Department of Health
and Environmental  Sciences for professional involvement, to the  ,
Montana National  Guard for conducting the tributary sampling
phase of the Survey, and to those Montana wastewater treatment
plant operators who voluntarily provided effluent samples.

     The staff of the Hater Quality Bureau provided invaluable
lake documentation and counsel during the Survey, reviewed the
preliminary reports, and provided critiques most useful  in the
preparation of this Working Paper series.

     Major General 'John J. Womack, the Adjutant General  of Montana,
and Project Officer Major William Yeager, who directed the volun-
teer efforts of the Montana National Guardsmen, are also gratefully
acknowledged for their assistance to the Survey.

I.  CONCLUSIONS
    A.  Trophic Condition:
            Survey data indicate that Tally Lake is  oligo-mesotrophic.
        It ranked fourth in overall  trophic quality  when  the  15  Montana
        lakes and reservoirs sampled in 1975 were compared  using a  com-
        bination of six parameters*.  Four of the water bodies had  less
        median total  phosphorus, five had less and three  had  the same
        median inorganic nitrogen,  two had less and  three had the same
        median orthophosphorus,  three had less mean  chlorophyll  a_,  and
        five had greater mean Secchi disc transparency.   No significant
        depression of dissolved  oxygen occurred at depths as  great  as 52
        meters.
            Survey limnologists  did  not observe any  nuisance  conditions
        and commented on the attractive appearance of the lake.
    B.  Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
            Due to significant nutrient changes in the algal  assay  samples,
        the assay results are not considered representative of conditions
        in the lake at the times of  sampling.
            The lake data indicate nitrogen limitation in June and
        phosphorus limitation in July and September.
    C.  Nutrient Controllability:
            1.  Point sources—No known municipal or industrial  point
* See Appendix A.

        sources impacted Tally Lake during the sampling year.  Septic
        tanks serving a lakeshore dwelling and a campground were esti-
        mated to have contributed 0.2% of the total phosphorus load,
        but a shoreline survey would be necessary to determine the actual
        significance of those sources.
            The present phosphorus loading of 0.51  g/m 2/year is slightly
        more than that proposed by Vollenweider (Vollenweider and Dillon,
        1974) as an oligotrophic loading, and every effort should be
        made to keep phosphorus inputs at the lowest practicable level to
        protect the existing trophic quality of Tally Lake.
            2.  Non-point sources--Non-point sources, including precipita-
        tion, accounted for 99.8% of the total phosphorus load to Tally
        Lake during the sampling year.  Logan Creek contributed 80.9% of
        the total load, and the ungaged tributaries added an estimated 15.5%
        of the total.
            The non-point phosphorus export rate of Logan Creek was 5 kg/km2/
        yr.  This rate is quite low as compared to  the rates of two
        unimpacted tributaries of nearby Whitefish  Lake* (9 and 21 kg/km2/yr).

III.   WATER QUALITY  SUMMARY
      Tally Lake was sampled  three times  during  the  open-water season
  of 1975 by means of a pontoon-equipped  Huey helicopter.   Each time,
  samples for physical  and chemical  parameters were  collected  from
  a number of depths at two stations on the lake (see  map,  page v).
  During each visit, a  single depth-integrated (4.6  m  to  surface)
  sample was composited from  the stations for phytoplankton identifi-
  cation and enumeration;  and during the  first and last visit,  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 depth sampled
  at both stations was  51.8 meters.
      The sampling results are presented  in full  in  Appendix D and
  are summarized in  the following  table.

C.  Limiting Nutrient Study:
        Due to significant nutrient changes  in  the  algal  assay  sam-
    ples during shipment from the field  to  the  laboratory,  the
    results are not considered representative of lake  conditions
    at the times of sampling  (06/02/75 and  09/05/75).
        The lake data indicate Tally Lake was nitrogen limited  in
    June and phosphorus limited in July  and  September.  At  those
    times, the mean inorganic nitrogen to orthophosphorus ratios
    were 5 to 1, 16 to 1,  and 19 to 1, respectively.

-------
IV.   NUTRIENT LOADINGS
     (See Appendix £ for data)
     For the determination of nutrient loadings,  the  Montana  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 May and June  when  two samples were  collected.
 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 Montana District Office of the  U.S. Geological Survey  for the
 tributary sites nearest the lake.
     In this report,  nutrient loads  for sampled tributaries were
 determined by using a  modification  of a U.S.  Geological Survey  computer
 program for calculating stream loadings*.   Nutrient  loads  for unsampled
 "minor tributaries and immediate  drainage"  ("ZZ" of  U.S.G.S.) were
 estimated using the nutrient loads, in kg/km2/year,  at  station  A-2
 and multiplying by the ZZ area  in km2.
     No known wastewater treatment plants impacted  Tally Lake during
 the sampling year.

E.   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.
                             Total  Phosphorus       Total Nitrogen
   	Total    Accumulated     Total   Accumulated
    grams/m2/yr             0.51       0.13        34.4       2.6
    Vollenweider  phosphorus  loadings
     (g/m2/yr)  based  on  mean depth  and mean
     hydraulic  retention time of Tally Lake:
        "Dangerous"   (eutrophic loading)               0.96
        "Permissible"   (oligotrophic  loading)          0.48
