                          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 arid 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.

LM.jMLYS.IS

    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 [S303(e)j, water
quality criteria/standards review [§303(c)], clean lakos [§314(a,b)L
and water quality monitoring [§106 and §3Ub(b)'J activities mandated
by the Federal  Water Pollution Control  Act Amendments of 1972.

                                iii
     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.

ACKNQWLEDMENT

     The staff of the National Eutrophication Survey (Office of
Research & Development, U. S. Environmental  Protection Agency)
expresses sincere appreciation to the Oregon Department of Environ-
mental Quality for the professional involvement and to the Oregon
National Guard for conducting the tributary  sampling phase of the
the Survey.

     William H. Young, Department Director,  and Harold L. Sawyer,
Administrator, and the staff of the Water Quality Control Division
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.

     Brigadier General Richard A. Miller, the Adjutant General
of Oregon, and Project Officer Lt. Colonel John Mewha, who
c'irected the volunteer efforts of the Oregon National Guardsmen,
are also gratefully acknowledged for their assistance to the
Survey.

I.  CONCLUSIONS
    A.  Trophic Condition:
            Survey data indicate Hills Creek Reservoir is eutrophic.
        It ranked fourth in overall trophic quality when the eight
        Oregon lakes and reservoirs sampled in 1975 were compared
        using a combination of six parameters*.  Three of the water
        bodies had less median total  phosphorus,  dissolved orthophos-
        phorus, and inorganic nitrogen;  one had less mean chlorophyll  a^,
        and all but one of the other water bodies had greater mean
        Secchi disc transparency.
            Survey limnologists did not observe surface concentrations
        of algae, but summer blooms of blue-green algae (Anabaena  sp.)
        have been reported (Larson, 1974).
    B.  Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
            Because of significant changes in nutrients in the sample
        between the time of collection and the beginning of the algal
        assay, the results are not considered representative of conditions
        in the reservoir at the time the sample was collected (10/30/75).
            The reservoir data indicate nitrogen limitation all three
        sampling times.  However, because of turbidity (Klingeman  et  al.,
        1971), primary productivity probably is light-limited.
    C.  Nutrient Controllability:
            1.  Point sources—No known municipal or industrial point
        sources impacted the reservoir during the sampling year.   Septic

tanks serving lakeshore dwellings were estimated to have con-
tributed less than 0.1% of the total phosphorus load, but a
shoreline survey  is  needed to determine the significance of
those sources.
    The present phosphorus loading of 3.66 g/m2/yr is more than
twice that proposed  by Vollenweider (Vollenweider and Dillon,
1974) as a eutrophic loading (see page 11).  Though the high
turbidity of the  reservoir may be suppressing primary production,
•
every effort should  be made to minimize phosphorus inputs to
slow the aging of the reservoir.
    2.  Non-point sources--Non-point sources, including direct
precipitation, added over 99.9% of the total phosphorus load
during the sampling  year.  The Middle Fork Willamette River
added 70.9% of the total load; Hills Creek, 10.9%; and the un-
gaged tributaries contributed an estimated 17.7%.
    The phosphorus export rate of Middle Fork Willamette River
and Hills Creek were 43 and 32 kg/km2/yr (see page 10).  These
export rates are  considerably higher than those of unimpacted
forested watersheds  in the eastern United States (Omernik, 1976).
The higher rates  may be due to unstable soil materials in the
watersheds (Klingeman et al., op. cit.).

III.   WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
      Hills Creek Reservoir 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 reservoir (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 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 depths sampled were 67.1  meters
  at station 1  and 54.9 meters at station 2.
      The sampling results are presented in full  in  Appendix D and are
  summarized in the following table.

C.   Limiting Nutrient Study:
        Due to significant changes in the nutrients in the sample from
    the time of collection to the beginning of the assay,  the results
    are not considered representative of conditions in the reservoir
    when the sample was taken (10/30/75).
        The reservoir data indicate nitrogen limitation all  three sam-
    pling times.  The mean inorganic nitrogen to orthophosphorus ratios
    were 1 to 1 in April, 3 to 1  in July, and 3 to 1  in October; and
    nitrogen limitation would be expected.

IV.   NUTRIENT LOADINGS
     (See Appendix E for data)
     For the determination of nutrient loadings,  the Oregon  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 January and February 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
 Oregon District Office of the  U.S.  Geological  Survey for the tributary
 sites nearest the reservoir.
     In this report,  nutrient loads  for sampled tributaries  were deter-
 mined by using a modification  of a  U.S.  Geological  Survey computer pro-
 gram for calculating stream loadings*.   Nutrient loads for  unsampled
 "minor tributaries and immediate drainage" ("ZZ" of U.S.G.S.) were esti-
 mated using the means of the nutrient loads,  in  kg/km2/year,  at stations
 A-2 and D-l and multiplying the means by the ZZ  area in  km2.
     No known wastewater treatment plants impacted Hills  Creek Reservoir
 during the sampling 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 Vollenweider1s model  may not be applicable to
        water bodies with  short hydraulic retention times.

        Vollenweider phosphorus loadings
         (g/m2/yr) based on mean depth and mean
         hydraulic retention time of Hills Creek Reservoir:
            "Dangerous"  (eutrophic loading)         1.80
            "Permissible"   (oligotrophic loading)    0.90
* There was an apparent loss of nitrogen during the sampling year.   This
  may have been due to nitrogen fixation in the reservoir,  solubilization
  of previously sedimented nitrogen,  recharge with nitrogen-rich  ground water,
  or unsampled point sources discharging directly to the reservoir.   What-
  ever the cause,  a similar nitrogen  loss has occurred at Shagawa Lake, Minne-
  sota, which has  been intensively studied by EPA's former National  Eutro-
  phication and Lake Restoration Branch (Malueg et al.,  1975).
