PREFACE
This "Awards Listing" consists of two volumes. Volume I lists all
grants awards except State and local assistance awards which includes
Wastewater Treatment Construction grants. Volume II list only State
and local assistance awards.
Volume I consists of two sections. Section one is the awards listing
with the first sort by States, then media such as air, water, pesticide,,
etc. Section two is organized on the basis of grant numbers, in ascend-
ing order. Following the grant number there is a brief description of
project to be performed. This description was prepared by the grantees
and contains approximately 250 words.
Section II narrative compilation has not been previously pub-
lished by the Environmental Protection Agency since the information was
supplied to, and available by purchase from, the Smithsonian Scientific
Information Exchange (SSIE) on a select program area basis. Information
received from users of previous issues of this Awards Register mandated
that a short description of all research and demonstration projects be
included. Including this project description would allow an analysis
of the technical areas of EPA support.
The Grants Operations Branch provided us with the descriptive
material. The availability of two additional people this summer,
in the Grants Information Services Section allowed us to complete
this task. Miss Ellen O'Boyle and Judy Colantuoni must be signalled
out for their assistance in organizing and editing this material.
Not all awards have a description and there may be other errors,
but due to the desire on our part to publish as soon as possible after
the close of the fiscal year, we decided to follow this course of action
rather than delaying the publication for further refinement. Any com-
ments or criticisms should be mailed or phoned to Grants Information
Services Section (202) 755-2830.

The investigation is concerned with the nature, distribution, and
origin of the inorganic constituents of coal. This "mineral matter" in
coal is, at times, deleterious and may, among other influences, con-
tribute significantly to problems of air and water pollution. In order
to obtain a relatively unaltered mineral matter residue as a starting
material for our investigations, the technique of electronic low-temperature
ashing is routinely used. After ashing the coal at temperatures below
150° C, the mineral matter residues are investigated by X-ray diffraction,
and optical and electron microscopy for mineralogical analyses; by X-ray
fluorescence spectroscopy atomic absorption spectroscopy, optical emis-
sion spectroscopy, neutron activation analyses, and general "wet chemical"
methods for elemental analyses; and by sieve analyses and Coulter Counter
analyses for size determination.
The major areas of interest, in which investigations are continuing
are- 1) the mode of occurrence and distribution of trace elements in
coal; especially the mineral phases in which the trace elements are con-
centrated, 2) the mineralogy and genesis of iron and zinc sulfide min-
erals in coal seams, 3) high temperature phase relationships of alumino-
silicate and other minerals in coal, and 4) mineral distribution within
coals of the Illinois Basin. Data from all :of the above investigations
are then related to the origin and geochemical history of the coal seams.

"Develop practical farming methods which reduce the amount of nitrate which is
lost from the soil by leaching and runoff."
Fivld experiments will be established at different locations to determine the
effect time of application has on movement of nitrate out of the root zone. Slow
release nitrogen sources, conventional nitrogen sources, nitrification inhibitors,
and depth of placement will be incorporated in the study. Crop yield, nitrogen up-
take, and soil analysis for nitrogen content will be used as methods of evalution.
"Quantitize the amount of nitrate lost from the soil under various controlled
environmental conditions."
Five natural lysimeters are being used to measure tho amount of nitrogen leached
below four feet from various sources of applied nitrogen. Crop yield and nitrogen
uptake are also being used to evaluate the results. A grassland watershed is being
used to measure the runoff losses of nitrates from applied fertilizers. Nitrogen
uptake by forage and nitrate movement in the soil are being used to evaluate the
study.
"Develop certain guidelines for the optimum use of nitrogen fertilizers while
limiting the amount of nitrate entering our natural water resources."
Guidelines will be developed from data collected and from published literature
for efficient application of nitrogen fertilizers.

1) OBJECTIVES: - Harding Lake, 46 miles south of Fairbanks, is considered a fine recrea-*
tional and home site area. It is the only multi-purpose recreational lake available to
the general public by road in the Fairbanks area. The lake has some 15 square kilo-
meters in surface area and is 46 meters deep. Land surrounding the lake is owned by
federal, state, and private interests. The objectives of this study are:
A) to collect and compile qualitative and quantitative chemical, physical, and
biological data by which.future variation can be measured.
B) to evaluate and define the above parameters in relation to the limnclogical
future of Harding Lake.
2) PROCEDURES: - Phase II of the project will be completed on March 31, 1975. The pro-
ject is scheduled for a third year of investigation. The first year of the project was
concentrated in establishment and evaluation of sampling sites, methods, and schedules
through an abbreviated sampling program. Phase II includes a continued but intensified
effort with increased sampling devoted to the winter period.
Included in the investigation are hydrologic and wastewater evaluations in addition to
studies of physical, chemical, and biological parameters. Primary production and
nutrient chemistry are the main thrust of the research. Second year efforts included
aquatic plant evaluations, zooplankton analyses, fish food habit studies, modified
nutrient stimulation bioassays and benthic and particulate nutrient analyses. Intensive
efforts are to be included during winter (ice conditions)'. Phase III, the third year
of the project, will be devoted to continued investigations, analyses and evaluation
of the project data and completion of the project report. A minimized number of
wintertime field investigations will be conducted.

The. purpose of this research is to determine the capability of
chlorine and certain of its compounds to inactivate viruses in waste-
waters and other^nters. The inactivation rates due to hypochlorous acid,
hypochlorite ion, and nonochloramine have thus far been compared, in vary-
ing degrees, In pure chlorine demand-free buffer systems (i. e. 0.05 M
phosphate and borate buffers). Research during this present grant period
will concentrate on clarifying our finding that hypochlorite ion in the
borate buffer system (with KC1) was a more effective virucidal form of
free chlorine than hypochlorous acid. Further studies will elucidate the
effectiveness of free chlorine forms and monochlpramine at different
temperatures on additional animal viruses, coliphages, and indicator
bacteria. Dichloramine disinfection efficiency will also be evaluated,
along with further investigation of the effect of temperature (Q10) on
the test animal viruses and ottier microbes.

This work has been planned to elucidate the chemical -changes and the
primary reaction mechanisms which occur in the simulated, sunlightrirradiated,
polluted atmospheres. Three distinct areas of our research are aimed at the
Attainment of this overall objective: (a) The experimental study of the
mechanism of the photo-oxidation of several common contaminants of the urban
atmospheres. Specifically a variety of kinetic studies will be made using
various combinations of sulfur dioxide, formaldehyde, nitrogen dioxide,
nitric oxide, olefin hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide, both in oxygen-rich
mixtures and together with other selected reactants picked to test key
points in the photooxidation mechanism, (b) The characterization of the
reactive intermediates and transients formed in the irradiated, simulated,
polluted atmospheres, and the quantitative determination of certain rate
constants for their seemingly important homogeneous thermal reactions.
(c) The use of these rate constant data, together with other published
kinetic data and computer techniques, to test possible models for the
chemical changes observed in these*systems. The best kinetic models developed
will be employed to simulate the chemical changes which are expected to
occur for conditions encountered in real atmospheres. We will attempt to
extrapolate these models to predict the effects of changes in pollutant
concentrations on the formation of the key products of photochemical'"smog.

Agricultural development of acid, sandy Spodosol (Florida flatwood) soils frequently
includes establishment of tile or ditch drainage systems to remove excess soil water and
thus maintain water-unsaturation in the plant root zone of the soil. Management of cit-
rus on drained flatwood soil normally includes applications of fertilizers, pesticides,
and irrigation water. The primary objectives of this project are first to quantitative!^
assess the water pollution potential of two fertilizers—nitrogen and phosphorus—and
three pesticides terbacil, 2, k-D, and chlorobenzilate when applied during routine
management of a tile-drained citrus grove located on flatwood soil, and second to evalu-
ate the influence of three soil management schemes shallow tillage (ST), deep tillage
(DT), and deep tillage plus lime (DTL) upon the water pollution potential of these
chemicals. Volumetric discharge rates and chemical analyses of surface runoff and tile-
drainage waters will be measured with time. Bo±h measurements will be integrated to de-
termine losses, rates of loss, and time-dependency of loss for each of the 5 applied
chemicals. Results from the two years of the study show that discharge of N and P were
generally greater in drainage water from the ST treatment than from either DT or DTL
plots. Deep tillage resulted in incorporation of clay and organic matter from subsur-
face layers into the otherwise very sandy surface soil and thus drastically reduced
leaching losses of fertilizer-P in outflow from subsurface drains. Application of lime-
stone to deep tilled soil did not significantly influence the quantity of P lost from
the soil through subsurface drains. Small quantities of 2, k-D and terbacil were ob-
served to be leached from ST, DT, and DTL plots; however, chlorobenzilate has not been
found in drainage water from any of the plots.

We propose to study interactions in the metabolism of chlorinated hydrocarbons
and hormonal steroids, in order to more'clearly define the nature of the interactions
and their potential for influencing population dynamics. The methodology developed
for one species, the rat, and one pesticide, DDT, will be applicable for testing
other species and other chlorinated hydrocarbons.
Experiments will compare the excised liver, adrenal and gonadal tissues of
DDT-treated and untreated adult rats and adults treated neonatally with DDT with
respect to their rates of metabolism of certain hormonal steroids and DDT. Any
changes will be correlated with physical changes (body weight, organ weights, and
histology) seen in adults of the neonatally-treated groups. Steroids and pesticides
and their metabolic products will be measured by gas chromatography, thin-layer
chromatography and isotope dilution techniques.

The research proposed includes the data analysis stage of a major
benthic survey. This is the culmination of an 8 year project which has
coordinated the efforts of some 45 participating systematists. The
project was originally conceived as an investigation of the kinds,
abundances, diversity, distribution and groupings of marine benthic
animals in relation to particle size and organic content of sediment,
depth, temperature and salinity in a cold water environmental about 300
square miles in area on the north side of Cape Cod.
For this purpose Cape Cod Bay was divided into one mile square
quadrats in 1965 when the study was begun and 86 of these were marked
for sampling. A total of 710 faunal samples were collected. The field
work has been completed, the organisms sampled are sorted and are being
identified by a large group of collaborating systematists throughout the
country, environmental data has been analysed and considerable effort has
been invested in the establishment of a variety of computer programs to
analyse the results.
The proposed analyses are: community structure, indicator species,
diversity, seasonal changes and statistical problems in sampling.

This research will continue investigation of the effect of atmospheric
aerosol properties on visibility through parallel studies in several
directly related areas. Activities to date include development of the
integrating nephelometer and studies with relating visibility to mass
concentration, wavelength dependence of light scattering, spatial dis-
tribution of aerosol, humidity, and aerosol chemical composition. In-
crement development has recently been completed in the last two areas
and field experimentation will continue relating chemical composition of
aerosols to their in situ physical and optical response to increased
humidity. We will continue with analysis and data collected during the
fall, 1972, California experiment during which we measured the listed
aerosol parameter and other groups measured aerosol size distribution,
atmospheric trace gas content, meteorological parameter, etc.
We will participate in a similar joing experiment in St. Louis in
August and September of this year. Our experimental goal is to gain
further understanding of the interrelationship of 1) the amount, com-
position and size distribution, 2) the role of water, 3) optical
properties of the atmospheric aerosol.
The past four years of research have practical significance based on
both technical and scientific results. An integrating nephelometer
based on our drawings and patents are being manufactured and is used
widely both in scientific research and monitoring visibility degradation.
An analog computer circuit that calculates relative humidity room temp-
erature and dew point has been developed for use in our humidity re-
search. New sample collecting and data processing techniques developed
in the laboratory will now be applied to the urban environments. It
is vital to solve this broad spectrum approach to obtain a useful des-
cription of the causes of ,visibility degradation.

PROJECT OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effects of various irrigation prac-
tices on the salinity of irrigation return flows as well as crop produc-
tion and to demonstrate that improved farm irrigation water management
can reduce mineral water quality degradation simultaneously with increasing
crop yields and farm profits.
PLAN OF OPERATION; An area of land will be divided into approximately 60
plots, each 100 feet square (10,000 sq. ft.)- Each plot will be provided
with both an individual drainage system and a solid-set sprinkler irri-
gation system. The sprinkler system will be designed to permit a variety
of controlled irrigation treatments on the crops.
Four crops will be planted and several irrigation treatments will
be used on each crop. Measurements will be made of the amounts, timing
and quality of both the water applied to the plots and the water leaving
as drainage effluent. In addition, both the soil and the water in the
soil profile will be sampled at intervals to detect movement and changes
of concentrations of salts. Also, crop yields will be measured.

It is our objective to study chemical reactions of importance in polluted urban
atmospheres so that the products, mechanisms, and rates of those reactions can be
determined. Steady-state laboratory photolytic techniques are used. Reaction mix-
tures are irradiated with controlled light sources, and the products of the reaction
are monitored continually by mass and infrared spectrescopy. After the irradiation
is terminated, a gas chromatographic analysis is made.
During the past year we have studied the following systems;
1. Reaction of CH302 with NO and NO2
2. Photolysis of H202 in the Presence of CO
3. Reaction of HO with C2Hi»
4. Photooxidation of CDsNjCD
5. The Oxidation of CH3CO
6. Reaction of NH3 with SO2
In the coming year we intend to complete our study of HO radicals with C2Hi» and
extend the study of HO radicals to C3H6 and C2H3C1. Since the HO-C2H4 study indicated
that C2H^OH and C2H3 radicals are produced we intend to study their oxidation also.
We intend to look at the reactions of peroxyacetyl radicals with NO, N02, CO, and
S02 to see if the radical can act as an oxidizing agent. In particular the reaction
with N02 should produce peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN), and we hope to study this reaction
in depth.
Finally we will study the dark reaction of 03 with C2H3C1 to see if it can be
important in the atmosphere. Our initial results indicate that the rate is slower that
that of the 03-C2H4 reaction, but faster than that of the 03-CHC1CHC1 reaction.

2. Evaluate the water quality of several areas of Puget Sound during each season
of the year.
3. Determine the horizontal and vertical distribution patterns of toxic wastes
presently being discharged in several .locations.
4. Determine whether present water quality criteria are maintaining biologically
acceptable water.

The objective of this study is to further investigate the inte-
relationships among mon-methane hydrocarbon (NMHC), nitric oxide (NO),
nitrogen dioxide (N02), and ozone (03) as a function of 1) varying initial
concentrations of NMHC,;NOX, 2) increasing initial percentage of N02,
3) variable operating conditions such as continuous dilution and vari-
able projile injection of reactants, 4) changing NMHC composition, and
5) presence of other reactive species in simulated photochemical smog.
The primary emphasis will be directed toward an empirical sensitivity
analysis of the above conditions on the conversion of NO to NO?; the
secondary emphasis will be directed toward a similar analysis for ozone
behavior. A major goal will be the specification of the effect of hydro-
carbon control on N02 dosage, peak concentration, and rate of formation
under a variety of conditions. The relevance of this work for air quality
control is to show whether control of NMHC concentration is an efficacious
means of controlling the conversion of NO to N02 and hence effect the
formation of 0~.

distributions and aerosol chemistry. To date a large part of the effort
has been devoted to the development and construction of a mobile air
pollution laboratory and to its use in the RAPS program in St. Louis, Missouri,
Work for the 1974-75 project year includes (1) finishing of stages
II and III software for the computerized data acquisition in the EPA
mobile laboratory, (2) construction of a compact aerosol analyzer com-
bining an optical and electrical aprticle counter into a single unit for
the use in aircraft, and (3) participation in research in St. Louis

aircraft, and continuation of analysis of field data obtained in Cali-
fornia and St. Louis.
Laboratory work that will be supported by this grant includes
studies of the size distribution and concentration of combustion aerosols,
studies of aerosols produced in a smog chamber, and calibration studies
of optical and electrical particle counters.
Important results obtained with the partial support of this grant
are further evidence for the ubiquitous occurrence of bimodal mass dis-
tributions in the atmosphere, evidence for secondary aerosol formation in
a power plant plume at 9000 ft. over St. Louis and in non-urban loca-
tions in California.

The purpose of the proposed research is to continue a study on the
mass transfer and transformation of biologically significant material in
the once-through cooling system of a steam-electric station that is operating
on the west shore of western Lake Erie. For purposes of this study, the
cooling system includes the sources of cooling water (the Raisin River and
Lake Erie) and the plume into the receiving water (Lake Erie). This study
will be integrated with a separate comprehensive, six year investigation
of the effects of thermal discharge on the receiving water, presently
being conducted.
The objectives of this research include measurements of mass transport
of entrained phytoplankton, zooplankton and larval fish through the cool-
ing system and the effects on periphyton and larger fish that inhabit the
system. Entrained phytoplankton, zooplankton and biologically important
elements are being measured from the same replication water samples at
seven locations in the cooling system. These stations have been established
to measure import and export of materials through four hydrodynamic
zones; (1) the intake region, (2) the upper discharge canal, (3) the
lower discharge canal and (4) the plume. The mean retention time in each
zone and the total volume flow are being measured so that estimates of
total material transfer and transformation can be made. Periphyton will
be sampled to measure discontinuous effects in the cooling system. The
movements of larger fish into and out of the cooling system are measured
with float-tagged fish in order to establish the consistency with which
the same fish use the area. The study started in 1972 and is to be con-
ducted over a three year period.

Using techniques which have been developed at the Duke University Marine Laboratory
for the culture of Crustacea under controlled environmental conditions, studies would
be made to determine the relationship between varying concentrations of heavy metals
and the length of larval life (from hatching to the post-larval stages), survival of
individual larval stages, and the possible occurrence of supernumerary larval stages
or morphological abnormalities during development. Initially, we would concentrate our
attention on the effects of mercury, including experiments which would be designed to
determine those concentrations of mercury which may be lethal to developing crab larvae
under optimal conditions, those concentrations which are sublethal under optimum
conditions but may produce abnormalities, those concentrations which are sublethal at
optimum conditions, but, under "stress" conditions, result in reduced survival or other
abnormalities, those sublethal concentrations which have specific effects during
discreet stages of larval development, and the effect of sublethal concentrations in
relation to cyclic conditions of temperature.
Larval and juvenile stage crabs from the above experiments would be used in
biochemical analysis of subcellular effects. This would include experiments to
determine the normal complement of proteins in each stage, any alterations of these
protein patterns caused by extended exposure of pre-adults to lethal and sublethal
levels of mercury, the normal distribution of specific enzymes and how this distribu-
tion may be affected by lethal and sublethal leve.ls of mercury, the specific kinetic
analysis of enzymes, and the effects of mercury on the properties of the oxygen-
Kding protein, hemocyanin, from adult crab forms.
Larvae of a number of different species would be considered, taking into considera-
n the environmental niche of the adults, the levels of sensitivity to the environ-
ment and the east of culture.

The coastlines of Washington, British Columbia, Alaska, and Maine are indented by
numerous deep, laterally-constricted inlets. Our overall objective in this grant has
been to investigate circulation in such inlets, with a view toward eventual prediction
of pathways and retention times of pollutants in inlet waters.
During the grant continuation period, we shall place high priority on the explora-
tion of different techniques for modeling various processes in stratified inlets.
Specifically, we intend to pursue the following tasks:
(1) we shall extend our development of time-dependent models of circulation in
stratified inlets with bafchymetric features to include .effects of viscous drag and
turbulent exchange between strata;
(2) we shall complete a report describing a model of the effect of inlet circula-
tion and various environmental factors on springtime phytoplankton growth in
Puget Sound; we also hope to extend our findings in this area to include different
seasons by participating in a proposed comprehensive data acquisition program in
the Sound (for which alternative funds are sought);
(3) we shall complete dye injection studies with the Puget Sound hydraulic model,
and prepare a report describing the results of this work and the general surface
circulation study performed during the current year; and
(4) we shall continue our study of the intrusion and dispersal of oceanic water in
deep basins with the retrieval, correction, and plotting of seasonal averages of
hydrographic parameters at various depths at key locations throughout Puget Sound,
as measured during cruises by the Department of Oceanography in years past.

This application is for an increase in the existing U. S. Environmental Pro-
tection Agency grant which increase will allow for a full 3-year program of appli-
cation of wastewater solids which period has been determined.to be necessary in
order to conclusively determine whether wastewater solids to be applied on lands
without any significant adverse effects on the total environment.
The Authority's engineers and Rutgers University have investigated and
believe that recycling the solids to the land would be beneficial from the stand-
point of reclaiming barren land by building up the organic content of the soil,
supplying much-needed nutrients for vegetated areas, and increasing the moisture-
retaining capabilities of leached-out sandy soils.
The purpose of the pilot project is'to demonstrate how a high-quality soil and
vegetation can be developed by utilizing digested wastewater solids. Physical,
chemical and bacteriological testing of the groundwater and vegetation will be
performed on a regular basis; Studies will be conducted to determine distribution
methods, optimum solids loading rates and the effects of weather and atmospheric
conditions.

The objective of the program of work is to study the effect of micro-
Nutrients on community structure and function. The rationale for the investigations
is that trace materials may exert selective pressures on species within the
community, thereby altering species composition and pathways and efficiency
of energy transfer. Nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) and trace materials from rural
watersheds, particularly chlorinated compounds, have been proposed for study.
Experimentation is divided into two phases: work with microbial communities
(bacteria, fungi, algae in particular) established in microcosms, and work in
ecosystem streams which support 8.0-90 percent of the algal and invertebrate
species found in the parent stream. Selected fish populations may be introduced
into these streams. Experimentation with NTA has been started with microbial
communities. Gas chromatographic procedures permitting detection to 0.010 mg/1
have been adapted for routine use. Alteration of algal community structure has
been observed at 200 mg/1, a level far exceeding the concentrations of NTA
expected in natural habitats (0.02-2.0 mg/1). Mineralization of dissolved
organic matter by bacteria and fungi does not seem to be impaired, nor is attach-
ment of microbes to surfaces exposed to NTA affected by environmental levels.
Bacteria capable of degrading NTA have been found in the natural bacterial flora.
Concentrations of 10~3M. NTA solubilized metals (Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn) from natural
sediments, 10"5M. solubilized only Zn and 10"7M. appeared to have no effect.
Results are preliminary and must be validated by experimentation at other times
of year.

Metabolites formed by animals and plants exposed to radioactive carbamate insecticides
will be identified or characterized according to their general nature such as "free"
"conjugated" and "bound". Individual metabolites or groups (for example, bound
metabolites) will be generated in quantities sufficient for studying their fate in
animals. The metabolites will be administered orally^by injection as single and/or
multiple doses. Studies will be conducted to determine if and at what rates the
metabolites are degraded, the sites and levels of storage of the metabolites and their
degradation products in the body, and the rates and nature of the radiocarbon elimin-
ated in the urine and feces. Metabolites with a potential for high levels of exposure
and demonstrate a tendency for storage will be further examined with emphasis on rates
of accumulation in the body as related to dosage levels and time of exposure. Attempts
will be made to synthesize metabolites containing the carbamic acid ester and the tox-
icity of these metabolites to rats will be determined. In addition to acute toxicity
studies, conjugated carbamate metabolites, when sucessfully synthesized, will be
evaluated for their general toxicological effects (growth rates, organ weights, visual
symptoms, etc.) on chronically-exposed animals.

The field experiments will be conducted at the Texas A&M University Agricultural
Experiment Research and Extension Center at Beaumont, Texas. Different irrigation
management practices and application rates of agricultural chemicals will be tested
on field plots: a) to conduct field scale experiments on the nutrient, pesticide &
water balance or rice fields with particular emphasis on measurements of deep perco-
lation and released water, b) to sample and analyze the water entering and leaving
the fields by the various pathways for persistent and toxic pesticides and nutrients.
c) co cleLetiuine Lhe effect of recommended and excessive application rates of nutrients
and pesticides on the pollution hazard from rice production, d) to use the data ob-
tained to develop management practices which will minimize or eliminate the pollution
hazard.
1) Field studies of existing management practices will be used to determine the
movement of water, nitrate, other salts and pesticides as influenced by irrigation
management and chemical application rate on the losses by deep leaching and in the re-
leased water. 2) A simulation model of the losses of water and chemicals from the rice
field will be developed. The data collected in the field will be used in the develop-
ment and testing of the model. The model will then be used to suggest and to test al-
ternative management practices. 3) The management practices so developed will then un-
dergo additional field testing and refinement as necessary. The leaks in the levies
which caused some lateral movement of water during the first year have been eliminated.
The second year was much dryer than the first, resulting in higher residual concentra-
tion of pesticides in the irrigation water than were found during the first year. The
occurance of rainfall, after pesticide applications has been identified as a major fac-
tor in determining their concentration in the flood water. The concentration of poten
tially harmful nutrients in the flood water has been low and has not exceeded drinking
water standards. The salt balance of the rice paddies hag been monitored and a model

A process for the high temperature removal of HoS from low-Btu gas
from coal gasification is needed if proposed combined cycle electrical
generating plants are to operate at maximum efficiency. Reacting the HoS
with a metal oxide to produce a solid metal sulfide capable of being re-
generated shows potential in achieving this goal.
This research is aimed at identifying potential metal oxides which
possess the necessary chemical and physical properties to accomplish the
task. The following approach is being utilized: (1) Identify candidate
metal oxides on the basis of a thermodynamic analysis of desulfurization
capability and solid stability. (2) Perform exploratory kinetic screening
on selected metal oxides identified in the thermodynamic analysis. (3)
Perform detailed single particle kinetic studies on high potential candidates.
(4) Examine the time-temperature-conversion stability of selected candidates
to determine conditions where the solid will maintain high activity through
numerous reaction-regeneration cycles. Objectives (1) and (2) are complete
with (3) and (4) underway.
Thermodynamic analysis was based upon a free-energy minimization study
of the complex coal gas-solid system. Kinetic data is obtained from thermo-
balance experiments using synthetic gas mixtures representative of the actual
low-Btu gas. Stability studies require measurement of solid properties,
such as surface area, to supplement kinetic measurements.

Lake Washington has gone through large changes In Its biological condition because
of eutrophication with large volumes of secondary sewage effluent and subsequent
diversion of the effluent. Changes In the condition of the lake have been studied
from the viewpoint of experimental limnology with special reference to the relation
of nutrient Income to productivity, population density and species present. By 1973
the lake appeared essentially to have recovered from its enrichment. The goal of the
work now is to define the present condition of the lake as the endpoint of the
fertilization experiment and as a basis for evaluating the effect of possible future
changes In the water income of the lake and other changes. Measurements are made
repeatedly of conditions related to control of productivity and population density
Including, among other things, primary production, nutrient concentrations and other
relevant chemical features, kind and quantity of plankton.

ircpactors, cher.ncal analysis by sensitive nuclear methods of neutron activation and
x-ray fluorescence, and correlation with sample location, particle size distribution

sources, altitude of sampling, and the occurrence of rain and fog. The relative
Importance of natural terrestrial and marine sources and urban or industrial
pollution sources will be conpared for each element, as well ss the effect of
source processes on particle size distribution. The study should lead to improving
our prediction capability for the distance of transport of different elements and
its dependence on particle size and meteorological factors and a determination of
the extent of impact of pollution sources on air quality at distances remote from
the sources. Moreover, the data obtained will aid in the setting of air quality
standards by better evaluation of natural vs. pollution sources and by documenting
the concentrations of trace inetals as a function of particle size, information
which may be related to aerosol respirability and inpact on human health, and which
may be linked to the types of processes occurring at pollution sources.

Objectives: The goal of this research is to develop experimental and
theoretical methods for relating the properties of the pollution aerosol
to the characteristics of emission sources.
Approach: This will be accomplished by starting from the observed chemical
and physical characteristics of the pollution aerosol and testing certain
hypotheses for the atmospheric changes which occur in the size distribution
and chemical composition.
Progress and Plans: Chief among the atmospheric changes are the growth
processes resulting from gas-to-particle conversion of organic vapors,
S02 and N0£. By laboratory experiments with atmospheric air samples, data
are being obtained on particle growth rates as a function of particle size.
At the same time gas-to-particle conversion rates are being measured by
chemical analysis. It is also proposed to initiate a separate set of
studies on the deposition of aerosols in models of the human lung. The
goal will be to estimate the rate of deposition of various chemical species
present in the pollution aerosol at points of high deposition intensity.

* 2) Establish efficient and effective methods of sludge application
to forests.
3) Establish the rate of sludge application wfctbh has maximum benefits
to forest growth with minimum impact on soil water quality and be non-
polluting to surface or ground waters.
4) Establish the short-tern impacts of sludge application on the
forest, including effects on microbiological organisms and higher plant
species, physical and chemical prpperties of the forest and soil and the
chemistry of soil water.
The second year of the study will continue with evaluation of the above
objectives and place particular emphasis on the retention movement and
•oil mass balance of certain elements contained in the sludge. Also
evaluation of varying rates of sludge application as related to total
chemistry and forest growth will be emphasized.
Retention, movement and mass balance of chemicals applied in sludge
will be evaluated by resampling the forest soil by depths. In this
manner changes in elemental constituents from the pretreatment condition-
will be established. Identification of the mechanisms of retention and
movement of certain chemical elements is proposed through use of radio-
isotopes. Radioactive isotopes will be placed in confined soil columns.
These columns will be sampled at 6-month intervals to relate penetration
of the isotope to type and sice of soil particle

It is the overall objective of this study to investigate the feasibility
of using microbiological processes to mitigate the effects of hazardous
materials spilled into watercourses. Several specific objectives have been
established as follows: (1) investigate the response requirements for
any hazardous material spill; (2) determine the minimum response require-
ments needed using microorganisms as a biological counter-measure for these
materials; (3) conduct screening tests to determine candidate micro-
organisms for mitigating the effects of selected hazardous materials from
the Environmental Protection Agency priority-ranked list of soluble hazard-
ous polluting substances; (4) conduct model ecological system studies
(simulating lotic and lentic environments) to assess total system response
to hazardous materials and their decomposition products; (5) select micro-
organisms which mitigate the effects of the selected hazardous materials
and conduct simulated spill experiments on the model ecosystems employ-
ong these organisms to assess their mitigation efficiency; (6) develop
production, storage, reculture, and deployment methods for bacteria selected;
and (7) evaluate the practical feasibility of using microorganism counter-
measures for mitigating the effects of hazardous material spills.
The work includes literature surveys and experimental work in
biological treatment units and in aquatic microcosms to determine the bio-
degradability and fate of hazardous materials and tests on simulated spills
of these hazardous materials in contained aquatic ecological systems.
The materials being tested include acetone cyanchydrin, acrylonitrile, aldrin,
benzene, cyclic rodenticides and insecticides, DDT, isoprene, methyl
alcohol, nitrophenol, nony phenol, phenol, styrene, xylene, and toxaphene.

The objectives of this research project are to obtain information on lung
growth as monitored by pulmonary function testing in a longitudinal population of
young children. This study is being performed in an area of low environmental air
pollution and the influence of natural acute respiratory infections with viruses,
bacteria and mycoplasmas on the children's pulmonary status is being monitored.
Efforts to seek better methods for measuring pulmonary function in young children

The primary objective of this project is to disinfect parallel streaas of
effluent from a secondary activated sludge wastewater treatment plant with
chlorine and ozone. Part of the chlorinated effluent stream will be dechlori-
nated with sulfur dioxide. The chlorinated, dechlorlnated, and ozonated
streams, and a control stream of the same effluent, would be compared for their
toxic effect on several species of fish and oacrolnvertebrates. Disinfectant
dosage will be controlled at levels sufficient to yield effluents having a total
collform count not to exceed 1,000 per 100 ml, but use of gross excesses of
disinfectant beyond the amount necessary to yield the desired reduction In
coliform content will be avoided. Results obtained will provide a basis for
determining which system of treatment will combine the desired level of
disinfection with the lowest toxic effect on the biological forms used In the
tests.
The same work will be carried out at a trickling filter plant that has
industrial effluents equal to more than half its load.
The project will commence after both plants have begun removing
phosphates in compliance with the Lake Michigan Enforcement Conference orders.
A fifth stream of final effluent disinfected with Bromine-chloride may be
added at both plants.

1. The primary objective of this project is to restore Shagawa Lake bordering
the City of Ely, Minnesota from a highly eutrophic condition to a healthy
state.
2. To accomplish the above objective, it was determined to be necessary to
substantially upgrade the quality of and to remove essentially all
phosphorus from the City of Ely's high-rate trickling filter plant
effluent. This effluent constitutes virtually a point source of
pftosfhorva discharge iji«,u t]^ ia<«. A l,L ,*ge t^tiary %r<*2'bM£Afr plznl
has been constructed to further treat the trickling filter effluent.
Tertiary facilities consist of flow equilization, two-stage lime clari-
fication, dual-media filtration, and chlorination. Lime sludge is mixed
with digested sludge from the trickling filter plant and disposed of via
gravity thickening, vacuum filtration, and trucking to sanitary landfill.
The concentration of phosphorus being sought in the tertiary effluent is
0.05 mg/1 as P, or less.
3. In April 1973, three years of carefully-controlled operation [using EPA
and City personnel) was started, during which time, it is hoped the
restoration of Shagawa Lake can be demonstrated. After 18 months of
operation, it has been shown that the residual phosphorus objective of
0.05 mg/1 as P can be routinely achieved.

Objectives: To survey existing analytical methods for particulate measurement; to
identify and catalog the chemical and physical properties of asbestos fiber; to establish
criteria for its measurement; and to evaluate and/or develop techniques for
quantitative measurement of asbestos fiber for the purpose of establishing a standard
procedure for Asbestos analysis in air samples for process control purposes.
Approach: Survey existing literature relating to particulate measurement and to the
properties of asbestos fibers. Evaluate existing analytical techniques as they apply
to asbestos fiber measurement. Carry out experimental research leading to the
improvement of existing techniques and/or the development of new techniques with
improved capabilities for quantitative asbestos fiber measurement.
Progress: The periodic literature has been reviewed so as to identify those experiences
and references relating to the quantitative and qualitative measurement of asbestos
fibers. A catalog of the existing knowledge of the physical and chemical properties
of asbestos has been assembled for the purpose of identifying unique or novel means
of detecting or sensing asbestos fibers. An evaluation of new and existing analytical
techniques has been made and ranked relative to their intrinsic capability for
identification and quantitative count measurement of asbestos fibers. Two such
techniques have been identified as having the potential for satisfying the objectives
of this grant.
Current Plans: An experimental development program is now defined that will
provide experimental evaluation of asbestos fiber counting by using either scanning
electron microscopy with image analyses, or light scattering techniques using a
laser as the primary light source.

The Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) has proven itself to be a
useful computer simulation tool for studies of pollution caused by storm
and combined sewer overflows. However, documentation of model usage lacks
a clear, concise, logical sequence for users to follow. An extensive
effort will be made to revise the present User's Manual to correct for
this defect and others and to completely update the model. In addition,
refinements will be added to flow routing procedures to account better for
backwater, interconnections and surcharging. Treatment and solids handling
alternatives other than those presently considered in the SWMM will be
examined for application to pollution control. Finally, planning guidelines
will be prepared for use by those charged with obtaining least cost, yet
environmentally sound solutions to urban drainage and pollution problems.
These guidelines will include the results of all available research.

The project is to evaluate the vegetative covers and factors relating
to the soil cover material of sanitary landfills. The objectives of the
study are: (1) to determine what type of soil to be used as the final
cover material, how it can be manipulated at the surface of a sanitary
landfill to minimize water entry into the buried refuse; (2) to determine
what types of vegetative cover material (grasses) to be used at a sanitary
landfill site in minimizing water permeability, in controlling erosion,
and in determining the final use of the site; (3) to determine the total
relationships of the soils, the vegetative cover material, and the buried
refuse in various stages of decomposition in order to come up with
recommendations for the effective use of sanitary landfills.
Studies are being conducted both on the simulated sanitary landfills
as well as under field conditions. Three species of grasses established
in three different types of soil (loamy sand, sandy loam, and clay) used
as cover material which have been compacted to give three different
bulk densities, constitute twenty seven treatment combinations.
Relationships of various parameters such as infiltration, gas pro-
duction, growth pattern of grasses, temperature, and subsidence, etc.,
are to be evaluated as a function of time, bulk density of soil, type
of soil, and species of grasses grown.

The aims of this project have been changed from those indicated in the title
to a study of cadmium uptake localization in Neomysis americana with particular
emphasis on the use of an electron probe for the most precise localization.
Organisms exposed to cadmium concentrations ranging from 2 ppm to 50 ppb for
periods ranging from 24 to 96 hours will be fixed in glutaraldehyde and osmium,
embedded in paraffin and thick sectioned for electron probe analysis of cadmium
content of different tissues. Sections from all regions of the body will be studied
in this way in order to localize cadmium deposition sites most precisely.
Tissue localization will be followed by cellular and intracellular localization
using the same kinds of techniques. Ultimately it is hoped to correlate transmission
E.M. studies of the particular cells most affected and to determine thereby the
nature of the interaction between cell organelles and cadmium.
At the same time cadmium tolerance limits studies will be continued as will
studies on laboratory maintenance and culture of Neomysis americana. Successful
culture should enable us to obtain sufficient numbers of all life history stages
to be used in further electron probe studies.

This investigation is defining the influence of turbidity on fish
abundance in western Lake Superior through measurement of effects
on species composition, distribution, mortality, growth and feeding
relationships. During the first two years, field samples were collected
from four stations from May through October by seine, bottom trawl and
mid-water trawl at depths from 0.5 to 25 m. Influence of turbidity and
temperature are being assessed by measurement of effects on fish popula-
tion dynamics. Supporting•••J^boce&ary studies are aimed at defining
turbidity preference--said scflss^a;?^-^^ feeding in walleye, Stizostedion
vitreum vitreum (Mitchili), lake trout SalveTinus nemaycush (Walbaum)
and smelt Osmerus mordax (Mitchili).
Preliminary analysis of data suggests:
1. Turbidity results in movement of smelt off the bottom and increase of
larval fish in the diet. These changes suggest that turbidity is in-
directly responsible for decline in herring abundance in western Lake
Superior.
2. Temperature limits walleye to shallow water and causes size segrega-
tion in smelt. Both result in increased survival and abundance of
smelt.
3. Turbidity results in replacement of salmonids by walleye at the top
carnivore position in the food chain.

A study to obtain experimental evidence that defines and explains
the ability of biological surfaces, specifically soil, to scavenge air
pollutant gases from, the atmosphere. The aim of the first phase of the
project is to determine through systematic laboratory experiments the
quantitative removal rate for light hydrocarbons and other selected
iir pollutant gases by different candidate soil ecosystem types. In
addition, the development of ATP measurements for indexing the flux in the
microbial biomass in the soil will be further investigated. The second
year's objective extends the research into an area of more sophosticated
interest as it regards determining the tb^fshold concentrations at which
biological and/or biochemical effects can be measured. The overall goal
of the project is to determine the microbial biomass response to air
pollutant gases at levels equal to or greater than the National Ambient
Air Quality Standard. These data are needed in order to design an
appropriate field monitoring package for determining biological effects
of air pollutant gases for aiding in the compliance with ambient air
standards.

The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) seeks to coll-
ect, analyze, develop and disseminate information and recommendations on radiation pro-
tection and measurements and to foster cooperation among organizations concerned with
radiation protection and measurement. After identification of an area in which NCRP recJ
ommendations would be useful, the Council initiates research aimed at: ^
1. Assessment of the available information which is pertinent to the problem.
2. Identification of areas where more information is needed.
3. Synthesis of present knowledge relevant to the problem area into practical recomf-
need of further study.
This project is concerned with the following topics (1)radiation hazards resulting
from the release of radionuclides into the environment (with particular attention direc-
ted to the examination of the problems connected with the release of iodine-129),(2)en-
vironmental radiation measurements,(3)tritium measurement techniques for laboratory and
environmental use and (4)quantities,units,measurement techniques,biological effects and
exposure criteria for radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation.
Initial-work on NCRP studies are carried out by scientific committees. If prelimin-,
,ary study by a scientific committee justifies it, work is begun on the formulation of
\lraft recommendations. This involves a detailed examination of pertinent information al-
ready available,identification of areas in which information is meager or unavailable,
and an assessment of the scientific thinking on the problem at hand. The final result of
the scientific committee's work is usually a draft of a proposed NCRP report. This draft
is submitted to the members of the Council for review,modified on the basis of Council
Member comments and finally, after membership approval, published.

Our primary objective is to provide baseline data on the levels of eight metals
(Ag, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb and Zn) in commercially important marine biota from four
Maine sites. The study areas are: one, Muscongus Bay (low background levels of
taetals); two, St. George River (mineralized, mined); three, Blue Hill (presently
mined for Cu/Zn); and .four, Cape Rosier (recently active metal mine). Thus, we
seek to compare metal levels in different marine plants and animals from high and
from low metal background areas, and also from high background areas which are mined,
recently mined and unmined.
Basically, sampling will be conducted in the spring and the fall. Samples will
include filter feeders, deposit feeders, carnivores, omnivores, and plants.
Sediments and water samples will also be collected. Water samples will be acid-
fixed in polyethylene bottles. Other samples will be freeze-stored in double
plastic bags.
Generally total animal or plant analysis will be conducted. Sediments and
biological samples will be wet ashed (HNO) prior to atomic absorption analysis for
total metal levels. 3

A detailed survey of physical, chemical and biological factors in
Saginaw Bay, Michigan (western Lake Huron) will continue until November
1975, as part of the U.S.-Canadian Upper Lakes Reference Study. Goals
of the study, to be completed in 1976, are to define water quality condi-
tions in the bay, to develop mathematical models of nutrient flux and algal
productivity, and to predict the effects of variations in nutrient loadings.
Statistical analyses of the data also will be used in correlating water
quality variables.
Parameters monitored at 59 stations (in 1974) and 37 stations (in 1975)
include: dissolved oxygen, pH, alkalinity, temperature, conductivity, water
transmittance, reflectance and clarity, suspended solids, chlorophylls,
organic carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus, nitrate-nitrite, orthophosphate,
ammonia, sulfate, silica and metallic ions. Sampling at surface and depth
is conducted at 18-day intervals coincident with ERTS (satellite) monitoring
of the bay. Additional continuous or daily sampling will be conducted at
selected stations. Cooperative studies of plankton populations and current
patterns are in progress.
The resulting data base and models will be useful in formulating
policies for pollution abatement in Saginaw Bay and adjoining waters.

The objective of the study is to provide basic information upon which a more
scientific evaluation may be made regarding the health hazard potential of
stormwater in the urban setting. It is proposed to determine the presence
and concentration of selected pathogenic organisms including other than en-
teric forms. The relationship of these pathogens to the customary micro-
biological indication of sanitary water quality will be established. The
results should suggest the type and degree of storm water treatment neces-
sary for the protection of health. Routine sampling will be made of sewage
at the wastewater treatment plant for reference and waters flowing in the
urban streams to obtain background information. Sampling stations for
stormwater will be set up at six sites ranging from relatively clean
residential areas. One of the sampling stations will be a combined sewer system.
The study will, of necessity, include evaluation of sampling equipment
and methods and cultured materials. The project is expected to be completed
in two years.
Th? principle objectives of the research will be the development of relatively
simple, reliable, analytical methods for routine use in the average analytical
laboratory to:
a) Quantify petroleum contamination at the 1 ppni (wet weight-) level in marine
organises and aquatic sediments;
b) Correlate petroleum contamination of marine organisms and aquatic sediments
with sources of contamination - "passive tagging".
The state of the art will be evaluated to provide a realistic assessment of the
liraitations of the various analytical methods vis a vis various petroleum contamination
problems.
The selectivity and sensitivity of analytical chemical .methods such as column
chromatography, thin layer chromatography, gas chromatography and UV-fluorescence
analysis'will be evaluated.

This proposed project continuation is part of a coordinated program to assess
the effects of eutrophication on biological processes in Saginaw Bay and the impact of
conditions and processes in the bay on water quality in Lake Huron. Primary emphasis
in this project is on analysis of biological population components of the system.
Field work and planning is integrated with other projects concentrating on water
chemistry, productivity, and satellite measurements.
Work undertaken on the project to date includes an assessment of benthos
distribution and abundance, extensive collections of phytoplankton and zooplankton,
and preliminary analysis of these samples.
Proposed work involves completion of the field sampling program and further
analysis of samples and reduction of data.
Preliminary results of the project indicate that benthos abundance in the area
investigated is considerably (in some cases up to a factor of 10) higher than
previously reported. The phytoplankton assemblage of lower Saginaw Bay is strikingly
dissimilar from Lake Huron and is dominated by populations tolerant of extreme
eutrophication and conservative element contamination. The transport of these popula-
tions into Lake Huron appears to be highly species specific, with some populations
being lost from the assemblage quickly and others, especially certain species of blue-
green algae, showing distribution patterns strikingly similar to conservative chemical
ion species.

An area of great concern in environmentally related research is the considera-
tion of multifactorial determinants of human lung cancer. Animal models for in-
Ikiction of pulmonary neoplasia have employed both intratracheal instillations ar.d
Bihalational exposure to a variety of organic or inorganic agents, alone or in cor.-
oinations. Exposures to combinations of agents have been productive of large
amounts of important data, but have in addition raised vital questions relevant tc
many environmental contaminants. Data already available :from animal exposures have
been useful in postulating pathogenic mechanisms as v;ell as In elucidating 3pc.cifi;
human health hazards.
Presently, policy making and regulatory agencies are confronted vrith need for
data relevant to the potential health effects of exposure to airborne particulate
sulfates. The proposed research will evaluate the role cf these airborne particu-
lates on the development of pulmonary neoplasia following exposure of Syrian Gclcen
Hamsters to the ubiquitous hydrocarbon carcinogen, benzo(a)pyrene. This investiga-
tion will combine exposure to aerosols of particulate sulfate with an ir.tratra-
cheally administered suspension of benzo(a)pyrene. The end point to be evaluated
following the period of daily aerosol and weekly intratracheal exposures will 1=

mechanisms operative in this model system.

The principal objective of this research is the development of solid reagents for
the chemical absorption of sulfur dioxide from the atmosphere axvi its preservation for
subsequent analysis. The reagents to be studied will consist principally of certain
organic amines supported oh, or chemically bonded to, porous glass beads, which will
dbsotb sulfur dioxide in trace concentrations quantitatively, aofl release it on heat-
ing for analysis by appropriate Instrumental or chemical methods of analysis. Other
compounds, such as certain triphenylmethane dye cations which hare been found to
absorb dioxide reversibly, will also be studied as absorbents.

Objectives of the proposed work in continuation of the grant are to
determine the acute and chronic toxic levels of cyanide to six species of
fish and to invertebrates. The work will be accomplished by flow-through
bioassays covering all life history stages from egg to reproducing adults.
To date 163 acute tests have been made on six fish species and one
invertebrate. Parameters tested have been temperature, oxygen, life history
stage, and pH with different concentrations of cyan-Me. Projected work
includes completion of acute tests on a wide temperature range and
initiation of chronic tests on four fish species. The effect of temperature
and seasonal acclimatization will be determined.

The objective of the proposed work is to study the role of
fuel drop size and drop size distribution within a gas turbine type combus-
tor. An experimental and theoretical program will be developed in concert,
paying particular attention to the production and spatial distribution of pol-
lutant species within the combustor. A fuel cloud of known drop size and
drop size distribution will be produced within the combustor under known con-
ditions of pressure, inlet temperature, and mass flow. The radial combus-
tion species of 02, NOX, CO, C02 and unburned hydrocarbons (UHC) will
then be measured with gas sampling techniques. To achieve these goals, an
experimental combustor test facility has been designed, developed, and in-
strumented. The heart of the system is a drop generator which prepares the
primary zone fuel-air distribution under combustor operating conditions typi-
cal of those encountered in current automotive gas turbine engines.

The major objectives, of this project are:
a. To evaluate the passage and accumulation of pollutants in domestic septic tank
disposal fields by use of field studies. The major pollutants to be inves-
tigated are total and organic carbon, ammonia, nitrate, nitrate and organic
nitrogen, phosphates, salts, and fecal bacteria.
b. To provide a ss^ies of test ^lots svailable tc EP^' s N?ti°r*al Ground VJ^^^T

Lysimeters have .been constructed with -three different types of undisturbed soils.
The lysimeters are six feet deep and have been equipped with drainage fields for septic
tank effluent. The three soils represented in this study are a fine sand, a loam,
and a clay. Each soil will be investigated for high and low watertable conditions
with three replications of each soil and watertable condition.
Two septic tank disposal fields representing two different soil conditions have

The persistence and toxicily of pesticides and their decomposition products represent
a serious environmental problem. The action of sunlight through pesiicidal photodecomposition is
both an aid and a detriment to the problem in that pesticides are photodegraded to chemicals of
greater or lower persistency and to greater or lower toxicity. Currently considerable effort is
being directed toward understanding the nature of the photochemical processes of pesticides, the
relative role that photochemistry plays in the fate of the pesticides and to some extent, to evaluate
rhese processes under conditions which are environmentally realistic. The proposed v/cr!: involve:
a thorough study of the various ways which surfactants (applied simultaneously in pesticidal
formulations) alter the photochemical pathways and rates in aqueous solutions and on soil surfaces.
Studies of such surfactants on the photochemistry of similar organic molecules show that profound
changes in rates of photodecomposition can be effected by the surfactants.

the advantages of implementing a "package" of technological improvements
within the lateral subsystems in reducing the salt load entering the
Colorado River. Although Major emphasis is upon oh-fana improvements,
considerable improvenents in the water delivery conveyances are also
required, as well as some improvements in lowering high water tables
(Drainage).

adequately alleviate the salt load from an irrigated area. Demonstrate
ing the complete package of salinity control measures will not only be a
"first," but additional salt load reductions can be expected beyond the
sum of each individual neasure because of improvements in the operation
and management of eac>i lateral. The lateral subsystem begins at the
canal turnout arid includes all of the water conveyance channels below
the turnout and the farm lands served by the lateral water supply.

2) Monitor the existing BSA primary plant to evaluate leadings, toxic
materials and inhibiting pollutants.
3) Determine to what extent significant industrial discharges affect
the system, and identify gaps in industrial pretreatment technology.
4) Compare existing treatment and control requirements with new
regulations.
5) Identify changes required in municipal and/or industrial sector to
meet new regulations.
6) Assess best alternative to effect changes required to meet new
standards including technical and economic considerations.

This is a continuation of a project initiated in 1974 whose ob-
jectives are as follows: (a) to determine to what extent new chlorinated
organic compounds are formed during the chlorination of municipal
wastewaters; (b) to develop a reliable method for the determination of
total organic-bound chlorine (TOC1) in a wastewater of water sample;
(c) to determine to what extent special types of compounds such as amino
acids are subject to chlorination in aqueous systems; and (d) to
determine the molecular weight distribution of TOC1 values in chlorinated
wastewaters. The approach for (a) will be to utilize Rohm and Haas
XAD-2 resins for the isolation of new chlorinated organics and MS/GC
for the identification of same. The TOC1 method will utilize a modifi-
cation of the activated carbon absorption method for determination of
total organics. Work in the past grant period has centered on parts (a)
and (b); several new compounds formed during the chlorination of
municipal wastes have been found.

A significant contribution to current air quality sampling tech-
nology would be the development of a simple air sampling system capable
of determining particulate loading along with size distribution over a
broad range of particle size. It is proposed to conduct a research
effort aimed at developong a two stage particle fractionator employing
series filters which are selctive with respect to particle size.
The Nuclepore surface appears to be a logical choice for such a
filter. The simple geometry is readily modeled as a bundle of parallel
circular capillary tubes which greatly facilitates the development of a
theory for filteration characteristics.
Work is near completion on a first principles model of the inertial
impaction characteristics of a large pore (12|(m) Nuclepore surface.
Preliminary experimental data support the validity of the model and it
is expected to have a validated model for filtration efficiency along
with theoretical performance curves by mid 1975.
With these performance curves as a guide it is planned to begin an
experimental study to explore the feasibility of using series Nuclepore
surfaces as a particle fractionator for air borne aerosols in the en-
vironment.

The objective is to identify and evaluate electrostatic effects in fabric
filtration. To do this, possible effects are analyzed and each effect studied
separately. Then the overall results are evaluated by tests of a bag filter in
which the various parameters can be controlled. Electrostatic effects are
divided into 2 main categories. Effects in the deposit of dust on the filter
surface, and effects between the fibers of the fabric.
When the particles are charged and if there is an electric field at the
filter surface a large reduction in pressure drop .through the deposited dust
has been demonstrated. If the particles carry like charges this porous deposit
of dust may be produced by the space charge of the dust.
Preliminary tests indicate that there may be large effects between fibers
due to contact, potentials between adjacent fibers of the fabric.

In summary, the objectives of this project are: (1) To formulate,
construct, test, verify and apply a large scale numerical model of
eutrophication in southern Lake Huron; (2) To utilize the results of
anticipated in situ experiments in Lake Huron to obtain kinetic parameters
which are independent of the verification data; (3) To formulate, con-
struct, test, verify and apply a numerical model of the central basin of
Lake Erie with specific attention to the vertical structure and the
anoxic hypolimnion; (4) To formulate and evaluate simplified analytical,
as opposed to numerical, models of water quality in lakes as a means of
providing insight into the behavior of specific components used in the
numerical models, as well as to produce formula which can, in some cases,
provide first approximations for preliminary engineering analyses;
and (5) To investigate a modeling framework which incorporates simpli-
fied versions of the above models and the presently ongoing IFYGL -
Lake Ontario model development into a three Lake eutrophication model,
the purpose of which is to investigate interlake interactions at long
time scales.

The project objectives are to establish if a hypersensitive state (immediate and delayed)
can be induced in experimental animals exposed to PtS04 and PdS04 under various ex-
perimental conditions. Also, the dose-response relationship will be studied.
Rabbits, guinea pigs and mice are exposed to PtS04 and PdS04 (various concentrations)
via various routes (i.e., i.v., i.d., s.c., i.p., and skin exposure). The skin test is
used to detect the allergic state in rabbits and guinea pigs. The footpad test is used
in the mouse. Platinum and palladium concentrations in blood and urine per volume
are determined throughout the experiment for each animal. Metal concentrations per
mass in the spleen are determined for all animals after challenge dose. Metal concen-
trations are determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry.
Results to date show that: 1) No immediate or delayed allergy to palladium was induced
in guinea pigs or rabbits by s.c. injection of PdS04. 2) No significant level of palla-
dium was found in the serum of guinea pigs or rabbits injected s.c. with PdS04.
3) No significant level of palladium was found in the spleens of guinea pigs or rabbits
injected s.c. with PdS04. 4) Significant levels of palladium were found in the urine
of guinea pigs and rabbits injected s.c. with PdS04.

The objectives of the proposed research are (1) to provide an objective
comparison of the benthic algal communities occurring on particular substrate types
in the Upper Great Lakes. This information should serve both to point out areas that
are presently being adversely affected by accelerated eutrophication and to provide
baseline information against which possible future changes may be judged, and (2)
an effort will also be made to reconstruct, insofar as is possible, the original
status of such communities by recovery and analysis of historic collections from
the region. Knowledge of the changes that have occurred in the benthic algal
communities could provide insight into the slow and minute changes that have occurred
in the Great Lakes.
The general approach of the proposed research involves the recovery of
historic collections and collection of new data on previously unanalyzed sample sites.
If recent collections are not available from the more important historical sites,
collections will also be repeated.
The staff at the University of Michigan is amply qualified to perform the
taxonomy on the benthic algal communities. Their laboratory contains a more
than adequate array of microscopes and instruments to describe the changes that have
occurred over the past 100 years.

(1) The objectives of this project are to measure the size distribution of outdoor
urban atmospheric particulates using a Time of Flight Aerosol Beam Spectrometer
(TOFABS), and .to discover, in the course of these measurements, the capability,
advantages and problems of the TOFABS method.
(2) The TOFABS method is based on the fact that when an aerosol accelerates through
a small nojzzle into a vacuum chamber, the smaller particles reach higher terminal
velocities in the cacuum chamber than the larger particles. Measurement of
particle times of flight (T)F) between two focused light beams of fixed
.separation can therefore be used to obtain the aerodynamic sizes oif the
particles.
This technique has the advantages of the scattered light measurement method
(fast, automatic processing and storage of data) without the major disadvantages
(background scattering from air molecules, complex theory relating scattered
light intensity to particle size). Thus, not only the measured data is of
interest but also the demonstration of the capability of the TOFABS technique.
(3) Current plans are to assemble laboratory and field model TOFABS and use these in
a series of calibration measurements of laboratory and outdoor aerosols and,
finally, in a series of measurements of outdoor urban aerosols.

Continuation of the synthesis and/or purification of high-purity (99.9% goal)
polynuclear aromatic compounds, chiefly hydrocarbons for possible use as analytical
standards, is proposed. These hydrocarbons are of the types found in the products
of incomplete combustion (automobile exhaust gases) and hence appear as environmental
pollutants. The list of 22 PNA compounds on the original proposal (now identified as
R-803097-01) may be divided as follows:
1) Hydrocarbons under preparation or completed:
Anthanthrene JBerLZ£>[/]-£luorantheae Pyrene
Benz[a]anthracene fienspfajpyrene 1,3,5-Triphenylbenzene
Benzo[b]fluoranthene Fl-uorairthene Triphenylene
2) Organic Compounds proposed as future work:
Acridine Benzo[mno]fluoranthene Coronene
Benz[a]acridine llH-benzo[fa]fluorene Dibenz[a,h]anthracene
Benz[c]acridine Benzo [gh2]perylene Indeno[l,2,3,cd]pyrene
Benzo[fe]fluoranthene Benzo[e]pyrene (o-phenylenepyrene)
Perylene
It should be noted that chrysene has been withdrawn from the original list at
EPA request, which reduces the total to 21.
In general, known synthesis routes are used, but their improvement is sought
through use of new reagents and techniques. High-pressure liquid chromatography and/
or zone refining is included in the purification procedures. Modern analytical

1. Objectives; (a) Design an optimized single-ended lidar system based on the first year's pre-
liminary field test results, to accurately measure both NO2 and SO2 produced by stationary sources
and present in ambient conditions. Calibration measurements will be made to determine accuracy
versus distance and laser power output to permit specification of different system parameters fof
different conditions, (b) Evolve operating parameters for extending the system for similar
measurements of Qj. 2. Approach; (a) A systematic study and error analysis will be made for
a comparison between simultaneous multi-wavelength and sequential operation of the lidar system
Measurements will be made of effects of bandwidth on doubling and ess range and accuracy with
the objective of simpltrying the system while maintaining accuracy, (b) Use the techniques
developed for SO2 in the first year to evolve suitable parameters for an O3 measurement system.
3. Progress so far in the first year has resulted in the development, from inception, of a systeri
to monitor NO2. Field tests have been carried out with this at ranges of over 1000 meters. Both
sequential and simulta&ostts oatput wavelength- systems were developed. Similarly, a system
using frequency doubling to monitor SC^ is nearing completion and preliminary field tests will be
carried out with it within the current year* s program.

Recently it has become apparent that there is a real need to estab-
lish the level of exposure to VCM of workers in the vinyl chloride/
polyvinyl chloride (VCM/PVC) industry. This need was triggered by
reports in January 1974 of the deaths of 4 workers in the industry
believed attributable to VGM exposure.
As a result of the potential seriousness of the VCM problem and the
findings of the preliminary monitoring work, Battelle-Columbus feels that
a detailed study to assess the magnitude^of this problem is needed. As
a first step, the Institute proposes that a research program be initiated
to establish the rate and extent of VCM emissions from the sludges
produced in VCM polymerization facilities. The program, as defined
below, would consist essentially of (1) sampling of polymerization sludges
from 4 plants, representative of the VCM polymerization industry, and (2)
analyses of the VCM content of air samples at the disposal sites and of
VCM emissions from the sludges under controlled conditions in the
laboratory.
Battelle-Columbus1 research approach to this problem vould involve
(1) collecting samples of ambient air and reactor sludges at the selected
sites, (2) transporting the samples to Battelle for study, (3) measuring
the VCM contents of the air samples, and (4) monitoring VCM emissions
from the sludge samples under controlled experimental conditions simulating
the natural environments contacted by the sludges. It is anticipated
that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency would select the 4 industrial
sites at which sampling is to be performed.

The hypothesis underlying this work is that the Dinoflagellate
Peridinium blooms when the medium is too poor, expecially in P, for the
green algae and diatoms to continue their development. Since Peridinium
produces considerable biomass because of its high C:P ratio we have a
peculiar situation where high biomass values are found at low P levels
and much lower values are measured at higher P levels when diatoms and
green algae take over. A prerequisite to such an hypothesis is that
Peridinium is able to take up P at lower concentrations than the small
algae which represent its main competitors. Consequently a large part
of our program is devoted to measure the Pj^ of Peridinium and of 5
species of green algae and diatoms common in the lake before the
Peridinium bloom.
Another part of our project consists in measuring in situ the P
contribution of the sediments. Preliminary results (report no. 2) show
that the oxidation of the organic P or the upper layer seems to be the
mechanism of P supply by the sediments.

PASK 1: The specific objectives of Task 1 in the second year of funding
will be to determine rate constants for reaction of OH with p-xylenef m-
xylene and ethyl benzene. In addition to the above rate measurements,
mechanistic information will be obtained (i.e. primary and/or secondary
products) on the reactions of OH with the compounds propylene, 1-butene,
pis-2-butene, tetramethylethylene, benzene, toluene, xylene and ethyl
benzene. The techniques to be employed in this study are (1)Flash Photo-
lysis-Resonance Fluorescence and (2) Laser Flash Photolysis-Time Resolved
Mass Spectrometry.
TASK 2; The objective of Task 2 will be to collect an extensive data base
on the concentrations of the trace gases NO, NO2, S02, Ozone and on
particles in oil fired power plant plumes located in northeastern United
fetates. This data will be collected via small aircraft at distances up to
seventy miles When possible. Before, during and after each sampling
flight, meteorological data will be collected to provide as complete a
meteorological history as possible of each sampling expedition. At least
two different oil fired power plants will be examined in this study.

(1) Objectives - a.
To establish replicate, flow-through microcosms
under controlled conditions in the laboratory
containing marine plankton and benthos
b. To use these microcosms to measure the effects of
different intensities of sewage-related stress on
the stability and resiliency of coastal ecoystems.
c. To measure the effects of interacting and time-varying
stresses associated with ocean dumping on the microcosm.
(2) Approach - Whole water samples of the coastal plankton and benthos
communities in lower Narragansett Bay, RI, will be main-
tained in flow-through laboratory microcosms with a
turnover time of 35 days. A complex artificial sewage
and a mortality stress will be applied singly and in
combination continuously and in time-varying mode to
replicate tanks at various intensities.
(3) Progress - The physical microcosm facility has been constructed, con-
sisting of a large volume water bath, 12 microcosms
(200L each), high intensity lights with appropriate
spectial composition, benthic community chambers coupled
to the pelagic tanks, and turbulence levels similar to
an open bay. Preliminary experiments have shown good
replication, and we are now ready to begin substantive

Federal Regulations specify that a type-S pitot tube is to be used to determine the
velocity and volumetric flow rate of a gas in a stack. This information is used in con-
junction with measurements obtained with a sampling probe to determine pollutant emis-
sions from a stack. In order to convert the measurements of type-S pitot tubes to
velocity and flow rate, regulations recommend using a nomograph which assumes a tube
coefficient of 0.85. Users, however, have reported coefficients from 0.65 to 0.96 for
commercially obtainable type-S probes. This variation can significantly affect the
calculated gas velocity and flow rate, which, in turn, gives inaccurate predictions of
pollutant emissions from a stack.
The continuation into the second year of a two year research project is proposed.
In this project the North Carolina State University Subsonic Wind Tunnel is being used
and is to be used to investigate the design, construction and use of type-S pitot tubes.
In the first year the research project involved the (1) calibration of several type-S
pitot tubes, (2) evaluation of the effects of geometry changes in the probe and (3)
evaluation of the interference effects due to the presence of a sampling probe. The
second year will involve studying the effects of (1) misalignment of the tubes with
respect to the gas flow direction, (2) turbulence and cyclonic flow conditions, (3)
bending the tube after calibration and (4) length of tubing between tube and manometer.
The results of the investigation will be used to determine specifications for the
standardization of type-S tubes and for their use with a sampling probe to accurately
estimate total pollutant emissions from a stack.

The assessment of the distribution and production of zooplankton
in southern Lake Huron with regard to sources of pollution, as well as
the determination of the capability of zooplankton to graze pollution-
indicating phytoplankton, constitute the principal objectives of this
project. Our approach to the first problem will be two-fold: firstly,
to sample the zooplankton with both nets and acoustically, and secondly
to process such field data using proven actuarial indices, including
birth and death rates, in order to relate production of zooplankton to
water quality. Our approach to the second problem, that concerning the
feeding by zooplankton upon nuisance algae, wiH involve the use of
tagged C1 C) foods and scintillation counting ability to graze blue-green
algae will be related to the dominance of such forms in perturbed areas
of Lake Huron. Our research team has experience on large lakes, having
applied methods of assessing secondary production during a study of Lake
Ontario (IFYGL).

In 1975, the Montana Power Company will begin operation'of a coal-
burning power plant near Colstrip, Montana. One of the primary emissions
of a coal-burning plant is S02, which is known to have a detrimental ef-
fect on vegetation. EPA will have a Zonal Air Pollution (ZAP) system
operational by spring, 1975, which will simulate various S02 emissions
from the power plant. Comparisons will then be made between components
of the ecosystem affected by the power plant emissions and those affected
by the ZAP system. Measurements obtained from lichens subjected to
those two conditions will then be compared with baseline observations
begun in 1974.
The objectives of the continuation study are: 1) to determine
morphological and physiological sensitivities of Usnea hirta and Parmelia
Chlorochroa to S02 emissions at various concentrations as observed on
the ZAP site, a grassland. '2) To use the Usnea and Parmelia, and
perhaps the lichen communities, as indicators of the S02 emissions effects
from the power plant on the lichens on the test sites and on Ponderosa
pine sites. 3) To monitor two grass species, using the same characteristics
as those tested in the lichens, to see if a difference in relative
sensitivities between these vascular plants and associated lichens can
be detected.
Field work has included specimen collecting, community characteri-
zations, and some transplanting. Laboratory activities include morpho-
logical and physiological observations of Usnea hirta and Parmelia
chlorochroa.

Objectives; The objective of the research on coal nitrogen is to
determine a partial mechanism, and corresponding rates, of conversion
of organically bound nitrogen to stable nitrogen bearing products under
combustion conditions. The objective of the research on particulate
organic matter is to determine, within laboratory flames and in the
exhaust gases, (a) the size distribution, concentration, and total mass
of soot particles, (b) the identity, concentration, and total amount of
organic compounds, and (c) the relationship between soot and organic
compounds.
Approacht' The approach in the coal nitrogen study is to close a nitrogen
material balance by analyzing solid and gaseous products of high temperature
coal pyrolysis. Coal particles are heated to combustion temperatures
by a surrounding preheated inert gas stream in a high temperature furnace.
The study of particulate organic matter is based on the collection of samples,
using a molecular-beam instrument in low-pressure premixed flames and a
water-flushed probe in diffusion flames at atmospheric pressure, and
sample analysis by high resolution electron microscopy, on-line mass
spectrometry, and combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
Current Plans and/or Progress; Experimental apparatus has been assembled
and exploratory runs have been completed. Systematic collection of data
is now in progress.

The world has reached the time when it must consider itself a closed and
glanced living system. The ability of a locality to unknowingly pollute to death
a region or localized subsystem is well documented. The time has come for answers
that quantitative, fast and accurate evaluations of how a change in the environment
of a given species will affect its well being. This is more complex than determining
lethal doses of environmental change. The information as to how the behavior of an
organism is affected with sub-lethal doses is much more difficult to ascertain - mere
•complex than observing life or death - it pertains to changes in the norm of
behavior and these changes may be subtle.
The proposed system for the retrieval and analysis of these behavioral data will
include a video camera to record the movements of organisms - either their whole body
or perhaps focused on an appendage or a motor mechanism. The image will be quantized
and rendered to a dedicated mini-computer by a specially built piece of hardware.
The software will be developed to acquire these data in real time, perform an analysis
as directed by the user via keyboard commands with an interactive display available
for viewing and editing these data. In order to allow .other installations to utilize
these programs, they will be written in a language that is machine independent to the
extent possible. The system will allow data to be accumulated for individual
organisms as well as groups of the organisms.
To develop a laboratory model ecosystem based on the corn-soil, soybean-soil,
and cotton-soil complexes, where radiolabeled pesticides can be evaluated for
total environmental fate, distribution in various living organisms, degradation
products, and biological effects. The chemicals evaluated in these systems will
be those selected by EPA under the substitute pesticides program. The systems
have been defined and evaluated during year I and work during year II will
consist in the evaluation of the substitute chemicals and comparisons with
standard materials such as DDT and aldrin.

The principal objective during the first yearwas to test the signifr
icance of differences in reported symptoms classified by type associate^
with swimming at a beach which is "barely acceptable"in respect to
local criteria for recreational waters, compared to a " relatively un-
polluted" beach. The principal objective during the second year is to
place four beaches on a water pollution gradient to establish a mathe-
matical relationship between symptoms classified by type and water
quality indicators. This work is an integral part of Recreational Water
Criteria Program efforts to develop health effects criteria for marine
recreational waters.
Trials consist of initial beach interviews on both the Saturday and
Sunday of the same weekend and telephone or mail follow-ups 8-10 days
later. Pretests in 1972 - 73 indicated that beach interviews and follow-up
questionnaires yield accurate data on demographic characteristics, bath-
ing activities and subsequent symptoms of the population at beaches on
weekends. In the first year, four weekend trials were conducted on two
Hew York City Beaches. In the second year-, four sites on a pollution
level gradient at a New York City beach will be selected; four weekend
trials will be conducted at each.

Experiments performed in our laboratory suggest that the ability of coliforms
to populate the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of warm blooded animals is related to
their endogenous levels of lysine decarboxylase (LDC). That is, those coliforms
with a high endogenous LDC content may have a selective advantage in establishing
themselves in the GI tract over those coliforms with a low endogenous LDC content.
These results suggest that the ability of a coliform to synthesize cadaverine
endogenously (1,5-diaminopentane) may determine whether it is of fecal origin.
We plan to test this hypothesis more directly by introducing LDC positive and LDC
negative coliforms into the GI tracts of warm blooded laboratory animals and
determine the washout rate of these organisms from the GI tracts of these animals.
In addition, we plan to isolate coliforms from the feces of human volunteers and
determine directly the endogenous LDC levels of these organisms. In this way, it
may be possible to redefine more accurately the term "fecal coliform" and develop
a simple, accurate, in situ test for fecal contamination of both recreational and
drinking waters.

The research will involve measurement of the chemical and micro-
biological status of agricultural land that has undergone treatment with
undisinfected municipal sewage waters for the past 15 years. Specifically,
the quantities of P, N, As, Cd, Cr, Hg, Ni, Zn, Cu, and Po in soils
and drainage waters will be measured. The content of these elements in
crops grown on the land will also be measured. Control areas not having
received sewage waters will be sampled for comparative purposes. The
objective of this portion of the study is to obtain the facts required
in making recommendations on the management of agricultural lands
receiving inorganic chemicals in sewage waters. The microbiological
portion of the project will be designed to measure the population of
pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and parasites in the soils and drainage
waters. Soil biota will be examined to determine if they harbor more
pathogenic organisms than similar organisms found on agricultural lands
not receiving sewage waters. Metal columns filled with soil from the
sewage farm will be used in studying the absorption and movement of
Salmonellae in soil. The results of the biological portion of the study
should provide some basis for evaluating the public health effects of
applying sewage waters to agricultural soils. It will also provide the
information needed in managing such soils to minimize potential public
health hazards.

The overall objective of this research is to reduce the pollution
resulting from the blanch and cooling of vegetable for freezing.
In order to accomplish this objective the following approach will
be used:
1. A 1 ton/hr, vibrating conveyor steam blanching and cooling
pilot plant that uses air with blancher condensate as a fog spray for
cooling will be designed and constructed.
2. The pilot plant will be installed and demonstrated in a frozen
food plant where the effluent volume and BOD will be compared to a
conventional blanch-fluming process.
3. Product quality and yield as well as capital and operating
costs for the new system will be compared to the conventional blanching
and fluming process carried out concurrently.
The proposed blanching-cooling technique has been tested on a
small scale at the Western Regional Research Center for the past year.
It has been found that the COD produced in a simulated conventional
blanching fluming system could be reduced by 50 to 75%.

The ultimate objective of a feasibility study is to de>.sign and characterize a
survey plan to make the desired measurements and to estimate the precision to be
expected from a survey along with the cost of the operations. Precision is not always
linear to cost and usually it is desirable to know the prec-.ision to be expected over a
range of costs.

comparison of grab techniques with instruments;! methods.
b. Evaluating modeling techniques for determining input from rural runoff

The objectives of this study are to determine the population of
Salmonellae in Texas feedlots and to determine the survival of Salmonellae
in agricultural soils that are potentially important for utilization of
animal wastes. Manure in pens containing sick animals will be sampled
to determine populations of Salmonellae under optimal conditions for
their development. Representative feedlots in various geographical areas
of Texas will be used. The major area to be sampled will be the High
Plains. The major agricultural soil in each geographical area sampled
will be used for studying the survival of Salmonellae in soil. The soils
will be incubated in the laboratory at different temperatures and will
be sampled at weekly intervals. Because the rate of manure application
affects the survival of Salmonellae several rates of manure will be used.
Before widespread indiscriminate use of land for disposal of animal manure
occurs the potential effects the practice may have on public and animal
health needs to be determined.

The sole purpose of disinfecting potable water supplies is the
destruction of pathogenic organisms and, thus, the elimination and
prevention of waterborne disease such as thos caused by viruses. The
overall objective of the study is to determine the range of sensitivity
of various enteric viruses (e.g.picornaviruses) to-chlorine. Using
carefully controlled laboratory experiments, the sensitivity response
will be characterized with respect to such variables as type of virus,
level and nature of chlorine, and quality of the suspending medium
(water). Both chlorine demand free water and natural waters will be
used. The sensitivity of viruses continuously maintained under labora-
tory conditions will be compared to new isolates obtained from fecal
matter. The mechanism of inactivation, with respect to whether the
viral genome or protein coat is affected, and whether the inactivation
is reversible, will also be examined.

There are approximately 100 enteric viruses of human origin which
have been isolated from sewage, rivers, sea water and water supplies.
Despite concern for the presence of these viruses, there is as yet no
rapid practical assay for their identification and detection. We
propose to apply immunoenzymatic methods currently under development
in our laboratories which will satisfy this need. These methods will
increase the reliability of and decrease the time required for identi-
ication of these viruses. In addition, the methods we propose may
also be applicable for virus detection.
The proposal consists of two phases of .methodology: 1) identification
of enteric viruses by immunochemical staining of virus-infected cells
with enzyme-labeled antibodies and 2) identification and quantitation
of enteric viruses by enzyme immunoassay. The first phase has been
developed by us for use in identifying selected enterovirus types; this
will be extended to include identification of all enteric viruses that
can be readily cultivated. The second phase will be development of
methods for identifying and quantitating cellular or extracellular
virus. This method involves reaction of enzyme-labeled antibodies with
viral particles; virus is identified and/or quantitated by assaying
bound enzyme.

The study involves the characterization of a recently discovered
virus of the pink shrimp, Penaeus duorarum. The relevance of this study
resides in the fact that the shrimp virus is remarkable similar to
insect viruses of the Baculovirus group which are being applied as
biological pesticides for the control of certain agricultural insect
pests. This is the first report of a virus structurally similar to
the occluded insect viruses as infecting invertebrates other than insects,
The research will direct activities toward investigatin the biochemical,
structural and biological properties of the shrimp virus as compared
to known similar properties of the insect granulosis and nuclear poly-
hedrosis viruses. Characterization of the shrimp virus will aid in
developing specific monitoring systems for the detection and survey
of the disease as it exists in nature and thereby evaluate the extent of
seriousness. Also, such studies will begin to increase our understand-
ing of the capability, or potential capability, of certain viruses being
utilized as biological pesticides in non-target invertebrate systems,

The objective of the study is to evaluate long path laser
monitoring of ambient level air pollution. The lasers that have
been considered are semi-conductor diode tuned lasers and sequentially
step tuned carbon dioxide lasers. Systems employing both techniques
were tested during the summer of 1974 in St. Louis in connection with
the Regional Air Pollution Study (R.A.P.S.). However, only the diode
tuned laser system will continue to be tested during the summer of 1975.
The present plan is to use the laser sys»tem to make pollution
variability measurements around two one kilometer square areas in
the St. Louis area as a part of RAPS. One site will be urban and the
other rural. A concurrent study will be urban and the other rural. A
concurrent study will be made of the same area using portable monitors
and bag samples. The results of the two methods will be compared.
Assuming favorable results from the comparison, it is planned to use
the system during the summer of 1976 to make several pollutant vari-
ability studies for carbon monoxide, nitric oxide and ozone.

The objectives of this research grant are to refine and develop
the hardware and system design for a portable pyrolysis unit. This system
is to convert various types of agricultural wastes into useful, saleable
fuels, such as char, oil, and gas. Initially, wastes sutided under this
program are to be selected from such candidates as cotton gin trash,
peanut hulls, and bagasse. Hardware of this general type has been under
development by Georgia Tech for several years and the results have been
very encouraging, based on laboratory, pilot, and near-full scale hard-
ware tests. Although the system has already been scaled up to commercial
size in an operating plant pyrolyzing wood waste, a few additional hard-
ware refinements are indicated for processing harder to handle wastes
such as those listed above. The study will include some fourteen or
more instrumental test run with complete data analysis.

The purpose of this project is to develop an improved chlorine contactor
design system to accomplish three primary objectives; (1) Develop and demon-
strate an optima design chlorine nixing and contacting system that will
provide effective disinfection with low chlorine-induced toxicity; (2) Develop
unifora tests that will provide a meaningful method of measuring the true
performance of chlorine contactor systems; (3) Use the information obtained to
develop a manual of design and practice for wastewater chlorination systems.
The objectives are to be accomplished by designing and constructing a
trailer-mounted idealized chlorine mixing and contacting system and a trailer-
mounted bioassay laboratory. A "slip-stream of effluent from eight different
full-scale wastewater treatment plants will be chlorinated in parallel with
the flow being processed in the plants. Both streams will be evaluated for
reduction in bacterial numbers to specified levels and for toxicity to
receiving water biota. Results of the project will be used to produce a
coaprehensive manual on the subject of wastewater chlorination and chlorine-
induced toxicity.

A variety of chemical agents in our environment have been shown
experimentally to alter the activity of the microsomal enzyme aryl
hydrocarbon hydroxylase and thus influence the carcinogenicity of several
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g., benzo (a) pyrene). Information
is lacking, however, on the influence of exposure to widely used organo-
phosphate insecticides on the metabolism and carcinogenic action of
these agents. We have shown that subacute administration of the insect-
icide parathion or its active metabolite, paraoxon, to rats inhibited
the in vivo and in vitro metabolism of benzo (a) pyrene. As part of a
collaborative project with the Department of Pathology, this study has
the goal of determining whether exposure to low levels of organophos-
phate insecticides (e.g., parathion) affects the metabolism and carcino-
genicity of benzo (a) pyrene. Ha/ICR mice will be used, since this
strain is highly susceptible to benzo (a) pyrene induced pulmonary and
stomach tumors. To achieve the objective it is necessary (1) to determine
the relationship between the level of parathion exposure (feeding for 90
days) and the incidence of benzo (a) pyrene induced tumors, and (2) to
measure the level of benzo (a) pyrene and its metabolites (e.g., benzo
(a) pyrene-epoxide) in lung and stomach in order to understand better
the mechanisms of any observed interactions involving carcinogenesis.
The data obtained might provide some basis for evaluating the potential
hazards to public health of combined exposure to insecticides and
carcinogenic hydrocarbons in our environment.

and quantitative assay of low levels of viruses in large volumes of water
and wastewater, and to evaluate various promising virus monitoring and
detection methods by standardized and controlled procedures.
The specific objectives are:
1. To evaluate a number of the most promising virus (including
Australian Antigen) monitoring and detection methods under laboratory
and field conditions by standardized and controlled procedures with the
aim of identifying the most effective method or methods for routine
monitoring operations.
2. To improve, test and compare new monitoring methods including
modern ultrafiltration and concentration of viruses and Australian Antigen
from water by magnetic fields.
3. To develop a rapid method (24 hours) for detecting viruses in
water by the use of the fluorescent antibody method or other possible
methods.

The objective of this study Is to collect data on the emissions of sulfate,
particulate, hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide, and nitrous oxide and on fuel economy
characteristics from a fleet of !n-use production catalyst vehicles by periodic
testing. The selected fleet of 80-100 vehicles will be tested at 3,000 mile intervals
by the 1972* Federal Test Procedures and at steady cruise; in both instances, with
simultaneous dilution tunnel particulate collection and gas analysis. Except for an
hour meter and fuel totalizer, each vehicle will be stock, and will be tested "as is"
with collection of a tank fuel sample for analysis. Duration of the study is two
years.

The wastewater from seafood processing plants is more concentrated
than ordinary domestic sewages thereby necessitating a project to ex-
amine the various method of treating wastes from such plants, including
regional systems, in order to determine the most cost effective method,
including disinfection, before discharging wastewater to land or State
waters. The value, if any, of recoverable material will be determined
for each of the treatment methods investigated. While the project is
primarily intended to yield results to be used in seafood processing
plants too remote from municipal sewerage systems to permit connecting
to them, the project will also investigate pre-treatment systems most
economically feasible for those few processing plants which are or could
be connected to municipal sewage systems. The monitoring and sampling
of effluent will be included in the project so that a conclusion can
be reached as to the most logical and reasonable system needed to main-
tain receiving water quality and to this end, both sampling require-
ments (i.e., for BODS, suspended solids, dissolved solids, Ph, coliform,
etc.) and frequency of sampling will be determined. Following the
investigation stage it will be essential to test the conclusions of
that phase with one or more demonstration projects. The ultimate goal
is to determine the best practicable technology by 1977 and the best
available technology by 1983 for the plants processing blue crabs, oysters
and clams in the Chesapeake Bay area, including Maryland, Virginia
and Delaware.

The major objective of this proposal is to determine the distri-
bution, environmental requirements, and life histories of the most
widely distributed and/or representative species of stoneflies of the
United States. As a basis for this work the research conducted by
other stonefly workers will be used for comparison and background
information. The work of Nebeker (1970) on the effects of high winter
water temperatures on the stonefly, Pteronarcys dorsata, and the ef-
fects of low oxygen concentration on the survival and emergence of
Pteronarcys dorsata and Acroneuria lycorias, Nebeker (1972) provides
comparative data for similar work conducted by the principal investi-
gator. The effects of low pH on the survival and emergence of these
two species of stoneflies plus 2 others by Bell (1971) provides data
for this ecological factor for the Great Lakes Region.
Research already underway by the principal investigator in Florida
and New Hampshire will provide considerable data on the ecology of stone-
flies of those states. A cooperative study with Dr. William Peters
and his associates at Florida A. and M. has provided specimens and
data for a paper which should be completed within the year entitled the
"Stoneflies of Florida." The principal investigator of this proposal
spent several days in September 1973 collecting stoneflies from Hubbard
Brook, New Hampshire, and as part of this project proposes to utilize
specimens of stoneflies and data to be collected by a graduate student
from Cornell who is undertaking a study of the mayflies of Hubbard Brook.
As a major part of the project herewith proposed the principal
investigator plans on collecting stoneflies and ecological data from
streams in the Smoky Mountains and other streams in Tennessee, North
and South Carolina extending northward to the Shenandoah Mountains
of Virginia. This work is planned from early March 1975 to mid June.
A sizeable collection of stoneflies from Wildcat Creek in South Carolina
and the collection of stoneflies of the Natural Academy of Sciences of
Philadelphia have already been identified to provide a further basis
for the research proposed.
Inasmuch as the species of stoneflies in eastern and western North
America are different with very few species and perhaps none of the same
species extending from coast to coast except in Canada, a special attempt
will be made to collect species from the eastern states as closely
related to Rocky Mountain species as is possible. With over 500
species of stoneflies having been reported from North America it would
be difficult and unpractical to attempt to include all of the species
that have been collected in the United States in this study. The
study will therefore be limited to widely distributed ans as closely
related species from various sections of the country as is possible.

We propose to investigate and evaluate the applicability and
practicality of existing local/regional policy instruments in achieving
and maintaining environmental quality objectives (air, water and solid
waste) over an intermediate planning horizon through the process of
affecting the characteristics and location of urban and suburban
development and the conversion of rural areas. The policy instruments
to be evaluated and tested for sensitivity are: tax policy (property
tax rate and valuation provisions), sequencing and timing of capital
improvements, and zoning policy. The impact of these tools on the
location, timing and milieu of development will be traced. Locational
choice for residential, commercial and industrial uses will determine
the volume and location of undesirable by-products produced by consumption
and production activities.
The linkage and sensitivity of instruments to environmental
quality and the accuracy of explanatory and predictive power will be
illustrated and tested by tracing development patterns in the Albuquerque,
New Mexico region. Our approach depends on utilizing state-of-the-arts
knowledge linking tools to environmental quality to the maximum extent
possible. Missing and not properly specified or inconsistent links will
be formulated through original research by the project team. Data and
co-operation from the Albuquerque/Bernalillo County Planning Department
and the Middle Rio Grande Council of Governments will be utilized in
estimating and specifying the overall model.

This research proposes to determine the combustion temperature
and residence time required to effectively destroy pesticides. Thirty-
four different pesticide compounds will be examined. Evolved gas analysis
will play a major role in measuring degree of thermal decomposition.
Thermogravimetric analysis, supplemented by trapping and subsequent
analysis of evolved products, will be utilized. Modified pyrolysis-
gas chromatography will be used to accurately determine temperature,
residence, time, and completeness of termal decomposition.

The projects main objectives are to determine the nature and extent of Non Point
^lutrient and B.O.D. pollution in a 340 square mile watershed and evaluate its effect
on a 7000 acre reservoir receiving .this runoff. This wilH be accomplished by using
two mathematical models. The first to define and allow predictions of the relation-
ship between land use and land management on the extent of non point pollution, the
second to describe the oxygen relationships of the reservoir which will allow pre-
dictions to be made of what pollution control or reservoir management will be needed
to decrease eutrophication and oxygen depletion.
/
Studies of water chemistry and B.O.D. on about 80 sample sites along with a land
use survey will be made in the entire watershed. Additional studies in the reservoir
Include long term B.O.D. analysis, algal studies, primary production and sediment
oxygen-nutrient relationships. A study of various reservoir drawdown levels on
reservoir water quality will also be made.
Progress to this point has been to establish sample sites and initiate sampling
and analysis in June of 1974 for water chemistry and algae populations, speciation
and primary production.

Literature evidence of performance and emissions from automobile engines when operated
on methanol or methyl* fuels is very limited when compared to like evidence for
gasoline powered engines. The objective of this work is to characterize steady state
engine performance and emissions when operating on methanol and methyl fuels.
Assessment of methods for the improvement of performance and reduction of emissions
will be included.
The work will consist of literature search, base line dynamometer mounted engine
performance and emissions evaluation, evaluation of fuel induction systems, and
analysis and interpretation of the composite results.
*Methyl fuel is defined as methanol plus peripheral compounds which may be present
from high volume low cost production.

The proposed research is directed at using fast and highly sensitive battery of
genetic tests and simple tests on cell morphological changes in order to critically
evaluate the effects of low intensity microwave radiation. Since the non-thermal
(less than ImW/cm ) effects of microwaves are difficult to distinguish from the
thermal effects in large whole animal systems, their distinction will be studied
at the genetic level using systems well characterized for their thermal responses.
Genetic alterations, such as gene-conversjon, mutation and chromosomal deletion
will be studied using repair-deficient his-mutants of Salmonella typhlmurlum;
D-4 strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae; ad 3A & ad 3B turn-component heterokaryons
and excision repair-deficient mutants of Neurospora crassa. Gross morphological
changes in development, using the filamentous fungus N.. crassa, will be used to
investigate chronic and delayed effects of continuous (CW) and pulsed microwaves,
existing in our environment. Work will then be extended to study alteration,
if any, of repair process by microwave radiations using human fibroblast cultures.

The Northern Cheyenne Tribe, via the Northern Cheyenne Research
Project, desires to develop an in-depth knowledge of the chemical and
physical character of reservation water resources, and the interrelation
of water to other resources, so that the tribe can make informed choices
in planning coal development. A three-year study plan is proposed to:
(1) gather and interpret baseline data concerning the water resources
and the interrelationships of these data to land, biocommunity, supply
needs, and energy resources of the reservation; (2) ascertain potential
adverse chemical, physical, and economic impacts to reservation water
resources from coal development; and (3) develop a comprehensive water
resources management plan that will aid present and future planning for
resource exploitation. Standard field and laboratory methodology will be
employed in assessing the geology, surface water, and ground water of
reservation lands. Professional help will be hired to direct field
studies and assist in final report preparation.
The objective of this project is to estimate mass emission
rates from eight categories of mobile sources which are currently
not regulated by national gaseous emission standards. The cat-
egories are: 1) locomotives, 2) merchant vessels, 3) power boats,
If) farm, equipment, 5) helicopters, 6) snowmobiles, 7) mobile
refrigeration units, 8) lawn and garden equipment..
Total hydrocprbon. carbon tronoxide> oxides of nitrogen,
and, if appropriate, sulfur oxides emissions will be estimated
for each category for the base year (1972), and future emission
trends predicted to 1990. The analysis will be regional, ^acn
category will be analyzed in an Air Quality Control Region in
which that source has a high population and usage. Data relat-
ing to source populations, usage, engine operating characteris-
tics, and emission factors will be compiled from census infor-
mation, government agency statistics, and formal and informal
surveys of fleet operators, engine manufacturers, trade and
user associations, and source owners.
The project's secondary objective is to design a computer
program which will allow the estimation of emissions from any
of the source categories in any AQCR in the country.

Land application of effluent disposal is receiving strong emphasis as a pollution
control method. The problem is to determine the interrelationships between effluent
content, climate, soil properties, and growth of agronomic crops to provide efficient
operation of effluent irrigation systems, especially under a harsh environment.
Specific objectives are to evaluate; 1) the effects of effluent nutrients on the
soil, forage crops, and ground water; 2) production and quality of forage species;
3) mechanical operation of the sprinkler system; 4) labor and electrical power re-
quirements and crop production information required for an economic analysis;. 5)
design and operation criteria and .recommend changes whenever necessary.
Laboratory studies will initially be conducted on reed canarygrass, smooth brome-
grass, meadow bromegrass, tall fescue, creeping foxtail, and orchardgrass. Analyses
include: in vitro digestibility, protein content, specific mineral content, nitrate
content, in vivo nitrate reductase, and soil nutrients. Field studies include:
collection of climatic data and its relationship to the performance of the spray dis-
posal system, forage yield of the above six species, harvest scheduling, and observa-
tional plots to determine the adaptation of twenty additional forage species.

This project involves developing a new mapping technique for deter-
mininghIhIs°cSnce^ation profile. It is based on the color change
response of acid-base indicators in an aqueous polymer film which is
placed on the surface of interest. This approach depends upon the
equilibrium absorption/desorption of a gas such as ammonia from the
gas phase in contact with the aqueous indicator containing film. The
resulting color changes correspond to the average phase concentration
at each point on the surface.
Such films will be useful in large scale wind tunnel simulations
where a topographical model may be coated and concentration profile
maps made fo? emissions from sources. The film will remain on vertical
objects and thus, with long term activity, will be easy to use. Pre-
liminary data indicate that a complete profile for a given set of
meteorological conditions can be produced, photographed and the surface
regenerated in less than one hour

Recent investigations have demonstrated that pesticides, in
particular the organochlorine pesticides, can alter the hepatic meta-
bolism of male sex hormones in rodents. DDT, dieldrin, and 2,4,5-T
have been shown to also affect the uptake of testosternone by its
target organs (e.g. prostate glands). Few studies have investigated
the effects of pesticide interaction (i.e. more than one pesticide) on
the endocrine activity (e.g. uptake and subcellular distribution of
male sex hormone) or on hepatic hydroxylation of androgens.
The effect of multiple pesticides on the uptake and subcellular
distribution of 3H-testosterone will be studied. Further, the effects
of those treatments upon sex accessory gland secretions (e.g. fructose),
spermatoeenesis, and hepatic hydroxylation of testosterone will be
investigated.
The proposed studies will utilize sex accessory organs (prostate
and seminal vesicles) of rodents (mice or rats). The incorporation of
radioactive androgens into whole sex accessory as well as their sub-
cellular components will be studied following treatment with multiple
pesticides (e.g. dieldrin-parathion, parathion-carbaryl, etc.). The
actions of these combined treatments will be compared to those effects
produced by single pesticide treatment.

rainstorms occurring during the construction period. This project is concerned with
such eroded sediment, and the specific objective is to find ways or to develop techni-
ques by which this fine material can be effectively and inexpensively removed from the
runoff flow. It is proposed to review the literature relating to a number of processes
for secondary treatment of sediment-laden effluent from sedimentation basins which have
been developed in connection with other applications. Following an evaluation of these
various processes, laboratory investigations will be undertaken with the view of
developing a pilot model of the m6st promising device or process for testing in the

The environmental fate of specific chemical species is becoming one of the
criteria for evaluation of pollutant impact. Evaluations of the chemical, physical
and biological influences- to which compounds are subjected are being made in order
to describe this impact. In the present context, chemical influences are defined
as physiochemical reactions of parent compounds in the environment; physical
influences are defined as parameters which transport or disperse chemicals in the
environment; and biological influences are defined as physiochemical interactions
or 'metabolism associated with receptor organisms.
Parallel approaches of investigation into the fate of pollutants are being
pursued in air or water research yet there is a lack of dialogue between specialists
in the two fields. For example, the same diffusion equation models are utilized in
air pollution and estuary modeling, and toe sane coaaulation mechanisms are proposed
at the salt wedge in an estuary/ affiep?acicoraafaxoguieoltweeg1irivestigators may be
the reason for the lack of investigation of the movement of pollutants between the
air and water phases.
This symposium brings together speakers from different fields of expertise to
develop a dialogue on the environmental fates of pollutants. Organic pollutants
will be stressed as less knowledge is available concerning interactions of organic
pollutants between the air and water environments.

relationships as a function of space and topography, as related to cost/
rate differentials among users of the same class and different classes
(residential commercial, industrial). This aspect of the research is
concerned with estimating the degree of internal cross-subsidies in the

Several mathematical models for describing the simultaneous movement of water and inter
acting and non-interacting solutes in one dimension are currently available. Most of
the models are still experimental and have not been used to simulate water and solute
movement in the field throughout a growing season. Also, submodels to describe
chemical changes in the solute with time and soil depth (e.g. nitrogen transformations)
have not been included in many of these simulation models. During the first year of
the study, an evaluation of the advantages and disadvantages of existing models for
water and solute movement will be conducted. Special attention will be given to
efficiency of computer program, accuracy, and number and general availability of para-
meters required to simulate the movement and distribution of water and solute in the
soil profile with time. Through an evaluation of the available basic - and sub-models,
a single model for water and nitrogen-movement will be assembled and tested using
existing field and laboratory data. Physical models for water and nitrogen movement as
well as chemical and biological processes influencing nitrogen behavior will receive
major consideration. The solute and water flow equation will be written for both one

The current analysis is an attempt to extend and refine Lave and Seskin's intra-SMSA
ortality-air quality analysis. The analysis itself will be divided into two parts.
first will be an extension of the Lave and Seskin work to deal with intra-urban
mortality differentials for more than 450 census tracts in Allegheny County, Pa. Multi-
ple regression analysis will be utilized in an attempt to isolate ambient air quality's
aggravation effect on mortality by controlling for other important factors believed to
influence an individual's probability of death. The technique represents a refinement
in that relatively more accurate mortality rates (age-sex-race-cause-specific mortality
rates based on the period 1968-1972) and air quality readings will be used, and dif-
ferences in weather and public health systems will be negligible, which is not the case
in an inter-SMSA analysis. By approaching the analysis in this manner, clearer insights
can be gained into the various air quality shift parameters of the intra-urban mortality!
functions. These insights will primarily be the result of the use of relatively more
accurate micro data.
The second part of this research will involve the estimation of various life tables for
the residents of Allegheny County exposed to different levels of air quality. These
life tables will be calculated from the mortality functions estimated in phase one of
the project. They will enable us to estimate various changes in life expectations, at
birth and at specific ages, associated with alterations in ambient air quality.

[ECTIVE: To demonstrate the feasibility and economics of reducing the waste load by
kdrating and reusing egg breaking wastes as feedstuffs from an egg processing facility
'mmercial chick hatchery, and a broiler chick hatchery. Demonstration of this im-
plant control process will aid in complying with discharge permit limitations establish-
ed by EPA regional personnel and the egg products inspection act. The latter controls
restricted shell eggs and requires that they be denatured or destroyed at the point of
segregation to eliminate them from consumer food channels. The project will also providfe
an alternative to currently used open dumping methods, With the. current practices, there
.exists a great .potential for water pollution as a result of rainfall runoff.
APPROACH: (A) Purchase a portable dryer from an equipment manufacturer. Equipment man-
ufacturers indicate a three (3) to six (6) month delay in delivery due to heavy der^nd.
(B) Treat the egg breaking waste from an egg processing, a commercial chick hatchery,
and a broiler chick hatchery. Several production units of each specific type are avail-
able in Missouri. These have been contacted and arrangements have been made for their
cooperation in teh field tests. (C) A minimum of twenty-four (24) determinations, on
composite samples, of the undehydrated wastes are to be made and related in terms of
pounds of pollutants per unit processed for which further treatment is eliminated. Each
sample will be quantified as to its water pollution potential by determining its water
soluble BOD. These values will be used to compute the total water pollution potential
of each plant. (D) Compute the capital investment and operating cost per unit process-
ed to produce the by-product. (E) Determine the chemical composition of the dried pro-
ducts (protein, fat, calcium, phosphorus, gross energy (bomb calorimeter), and anino
acid profile) using composite sampling techniques and a minimum of twenty-four (24)
determinations. Determine the processing treatment necessary to produce a salmonella free
product. (F) Formulate least cost hen diets to take advantage of each ingredient's chemf-
composition. Design an experimental approach to feed all new products to laying hens.

The objective of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility, on
a full-scale basis, of nitrogen removal in an extended-aeration activated
sludge plant. Additional objectives will be to determine design and
operating criteria for application of the concept to existing and proposed
wastewater treatment facilities in the United States.
The existing wastewater treatment plant at Owego. New York, is proposed
for the study because of the wide seasonal range of wastewater temperatures
it experiences, and because its design features, current operating conditions,
and staff capability are ideally suited to maximize the technical objectives
of the study.

Reliable and accurate discrimination of free aqueous chlorine (HOC1 and OC1 ) from
combined active chlorine (H N-chloro compounds) is required for optimal disinfection,
water supplies, especially when viral inactivation is important. Test methods have '
been developed to distinguish free chlorine from ammibnia clilor amines, but there is
doubt as to the validity of these methods in the presence of organic N-chloro compounds
This study will attempt to determine significant forms and concentrations of nitrogen-
ous organic matter in common raw water sources, will investigate the reactions of
these substances with aqueous chlorine and will evaluate tKe interference of the chlor-
inated products with analytical methods for selective determination of free chlorine.
Sfc Studies on the chlorination reactions of model compounds likely to be found in
natural waters such as pyrrole, indole, typical pyrimidines and purines, and selected
amino acids will be undertaken with ultraviolet spectroscopy as the tool during the
period when isolation and characterization of nitrogenous organic compomnds by various
chromatographic techniques is proceeding. When identification has been achieved,
studies on the chlorination of the discovered compounds will be substituted.
R803632-01
This is a proposal for a one-year period to perform analyses relating to pollution
control strategies based on modeling considerations. We want to compare various
abatement strategies (roll back, maximum control, least-cost, etc.) and evaluate their
consequences. Statistical theory, such as the theory of experimental design and time
series analysis, will be used in order to explore optimal ways of extracting information
from the data base. An important task will be to remove unnecessary complexity in the
air quality models. In the spirit of the repromodels one might approximate the air
quality distributions with piecewise linear functions or even consider higher-order
splines or alternatively, finite-element methods.
The analysis is to be carried out in four main phases:
I. The sources of pollutants are divided into n groups each of which may be regulated
independently. Using an atmospheric diffusion model we calculate for each group r a
transfer function ur relating its source-strength to its concentration contribution
at each point of a grid covering the air control region. II. A continuous piecewise
linear function is fitted to each ur , reducing the impact of local aberrations due
to stochastic errors in the data base. III. Selection of a reduction policy (e.g.,
roll back, maximum control, least-cost). IV. Validation of the model by comparison
of calculated values with measurements.
The research plans include full-time support for Gustafson during two months and
full-time support for one graduate student assistant during the entire year. Cost
sharing will be provided by the Environmental Studies Institute of Carnegie-Mellon
University.

The objective is to design a process and related methods for planning
environmental quality management systems and related land use and trans-
portation systems in regions that are under significant pressures of
urbanization. Particular attention will be given to interrelationships
amony provisions of the Clean Air Act, the Water Pollution Control Act,
the Federal Highway Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, and
guidelines related to these acts, but these acts will neither completely
determined the scope of the project nor be taken as constraints for
design of the planning process.
The problem will be approached by first developing parallel work-
ing papers in land use, transportation, and environmental quality which
set forth the present legislative and organizational frameworks, planning
and management processes, and mechanisms for coordination and integration.
Failures and weaknesses in the existing frameworks and processes will be
identified; major policy issues that must be addressed by any proposed
'solutions will be identified also. With the problems thus identified
alternative models for planning and management of environmental quality
that capture the most significant relationships among the three sectors
will be developed within the multiple-objective rational planning theory
and alternative organizational arrangements.
Alternatives will be adapted to and tested in the policy-organizational
environment of four metropolitan areas in the U.S.

The principal objective of this project is the development of reliable techniques
consistent with the basic simplicity of lagoon operation for removing phosphorus and
unoxidized nitrogen from lagoon effluents. Two in-cell injection points will be
evaluated to determine the potential of alum addition for efficiently removing phos-
phorus from wastewater being processed in a three-cell coabined aerated/facultative
lagoon. A sidestream of effluent from the last cell of this test lagoon will be
diverted through a plastic-media trickling filter tower to evaluate the potential for
achieving consistent nitrification with this type of second stage biological treatment.
The secondary objective is the acquisition of reliable long-term data from well
designed and well operated three-cell combined aerated/facultative lagoon not receiving
alum addition which will be operated in parallel with the test system and serve as a
control. Assessment of the effect of alum addition, not only on phosphorus removal,
but also on suspended solids and organic removals and determination of additional costs
and operating requirements necessitated by the nutrient control procedures are ad-
ditional objectives.

The primary objective of the proposed research is to apply a serologic-
epidemiologic methodology for appraising the health effects of human exposure to
municipal wastewaters. The approach is to conduct a three-year prospective
epidemiologic study of persons exposed on an occupational basis to wastewaters,
namely, sewer maintenance workers. The study population will include workers newly
engaged in sewer employment, workers with several years of sewer employment, and
a control group.
The protocol involves: periodic immunologic, virologic and bacteriologic
examinations of sera, urine, pharyngeal swabs and stool; yearly multi-phasic
physical examinations; health diaries; evaluation of sickness and absenteeism
reports; work observations; and selected follow-up of worker families. The
results will be statistically correlated.
The proposed research will also assess the sensitivity of this epidemiologic-
serologic approach to a determination of the human health risks of other exposures
to wastewater discharges such as: recreational use of waters receiving waste
effluents; living near wastewater, disposal facilities, and living near or working
near sites of the land application of wastewaters.

The objectives of this work are to determine health effects data and to prepare
a criteria document recommending a drinking water standard for molybdenum if the
data suggests a need for such a standard. Molybdenum is an element which is a
micronutrient for plants and animals in that it plays a crucial role in some flavo-
enzymes. At sufficiently high rates of intake molybdemia is toxic to organisms;
ruminants are much more sensitive than nonrumfnants.
The Rocky Mountain states produce essentially all of the U.S. molybdenum. Much
of this product is processed and used in the eastern U.S. The occurrence of sig-
nificantly elevated levels of molybdenum in drinking watar. due to industrial sources
has been documented and STORET data indicates that this occurrence is not confined
to the Rocky Mountain region.
The specific objectives of the program are to answer the following questions:
1} How much Mo are humans receiving in their total diet? 2) Does the biological)
activity of Mo in food differ from that in water? 3) How much Mo is accumulated and
what are the tissue levels in humans on normal and elevated intakes? 4) Are there
any detectable effects of elevated Mo intakes at the various animal levels of organi-
zation? 5) What is the level of Mo intake in water that causes no detectable effect?
The work will consist of studies of both laboratory animals and human volunteers
and will consist of: 1) uptake and excretion in rats and humans; 2) tissue levels in
'rats and humans exposed to low and high levels of Mo in their diet; 3) absorption of
Mo in rats and humans; 4) effects of various animal levels of organization in rats
and humans of elevated Mo intake; and 5) a major conference on Molybdenum in the
Environment.

The proposed research involves the measurement of gas production rates and
leachate composition to measure refuse stabilization under anaerobic conditions.
The refuse has different steady state and transient moisture conditions to
simulate actual landfill conditions. Optimum moisture conditions will be
determined for the acid and methane fermentation phase during the refuse
stabilization. These conditions can then be selected by enforcement agencies
to create the most desirable environmental impact of the solid waste on the
envi ronment.

Vanadia and iron-oxide chromium oxide catalysts have been shown, in a recent study
conducted by UCLA for EPA, to be highly active for the reduction of nitric oxide with
ammonia in the presence of oxygen and sulfur dioxide. The initial studies revealed that
this catalytic approach to NOX abatement holds considerable promise for application to
coal-fired power plants.
A twelve-month project is proposed to further characterize the performance of these
active, non-noble metal catalysts at the bench—scale level of operation. The overall
objective of the project is to provide necessary data for scale-up to the next level of
equipment size.
Initial effort in the program will involve optimization of catalyst composition
and development of preparation specifications. Parametric studies of process variables
and stream compositions will be made to develop rate expressions for design use. Long
duration durability tests will be conducted with the V20s and Fe-Cr catalysts both in
the presence and absence of flyash and at various levels of SO- concentration.
Analyses will be made of the effluent stream to identify possible secondary, toxic
gaseous emissions as well as those species directly under kinetic study. Metal and
sulfate analyses of the particulates evolved will also be made.

A study is proposed for the research, development and standardization of
baculovirus identification techniques to be utilized for detailed studies to
elucidate, more definitively, biological interactions and fate of viruses in
non-host systems. This will involve a careful biochemical and biophysical study
carefully correlated with the capability of selected serological techniques to
monitor any biological activity of the virus desirable to detect. From this
should evolve standardized procedures and reagents for J.n vitro and jln vivo
detection of ;suspect systems for virus, personnel monitoring, and/or evaluation
of quality control during mass proauction of virus for applied uses. More im-
portantly, the potential for infection of a non-target organism can be evaluated
in specific terms of detectable viable and non-viable interactions, and thereby
more accurately judged in terms of potential biohazard in both short- and bng-
terra application. Such information will be necessary for the ratification of
the expanded use and application of a baculovirus or baculovirus/chemical

International Paper Company proposes in-plant tests of hyperfiltration and
ultrafiltration techniques, utilizing dynamic membranes, applied to effluents
from the kraft process. The basis for these techniques is the prior work conducted
by the Water Research Program of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. IP Co.
Proposes to sub-contract for support from ORNL.
In a cooperative program under the ORNL-NSF Environmental Program, laboratory
tests have indicated good prospects for early usefulness of these techniques in
ameliorating several problems of the kraft process. One is the concentration
of effluent from pulp washing by hyperfiltration. Another is removal of color
and organic matter from the caustic solution generated in the bleaching process
by ultrafiltration. In the first application savings of heat, water and chemicals
appear likely to balance the cost of hyperfiltration, without allowance of credit
for environmental benefits. Treatment of the bleach plant effluent appears
considerably cheaper than any of the leading present alternatives.
The unit proposed will be of about 1000 gpd capacity, and will be tested at the
IP Co. mill at Mobile, Alabama. Objectives are to confirm laboratory tests
under field conditions, and to accumulate information necessary to estimate
costs and to guide scale-up to industrial size.

The purposes of this project are to explore in some depth, the
consequences of various proposed water quality control actions for
Lake Ontario and begin the development of a eutrophication model for
Lake Michigan. The long and short term effects on such indicators
as phytoplankton biomass, nitrogen and phosphorus at key locations
throughout the lake will be examined, ilore specifically, the key
overall purpose of the investigation is to delineate the relative
impact on Lake Ontario of the man made point sources of municipal
and industrial wastes, the upstream input from Lake Eric; (repre-
senting the effects of the upper Great Lakes) and the input from
both point sources and uncontrolled runoff in tributary sub-basins.
By evaluating the relative impact of each of these major categories
of impact to Lake Ontario, a firmer base can be established fox-
water quality planning and waste load reduction.
Similarly, the first stage in model development for Lake Michigan
will ultimately provide a means for estimating the rlong term response
of the Lake to nutrient control and then in turn the expected output
from the Lake and the subsequent effect on the lower lakes.

(1) Objectives; The first objective of this proposal is to investigate the atmospheric
residence time of various anthropogenic pollutants as a function of removal processes
and long-range transport processes. Both processes will be treated as functions of
geographic position and time, with special emphasis on seasonal differences. The second
objective is to determine the most probable sink areas for pollutants emanating from
specific source regions.
(2) Approach: These objectives will be accomplished by .the following studies:
1) Estimates of the amount of pollutants from specific source regions made available
for long-range transport processes;
11) Development of trajectory techniques which will describe adequately the movement
of pollutants released into the free atmosphere by the diurnal variation of th«
depth of the planetary boundary layer.
Ill) Development of a statistical approach which combines the advective transport
of pollutants in the free atmosphere with dry and wet removal processes as a
function of geographical location and season.
(3) Current Plan; Since the present proposal involves several complex problems, it is
anticipated that at least two years are required to accomplish our goals. The first
year will be spent on the development and refinement of techniques for the calculation
of long-range transport processes. The second year willfbe spent on estimation of
residence tines of pollutants in the atmosphere and on the determination of sink areas.

(1) OBJECTIVES; The Cherne Thermal Rotor is a spray cooling device that
has been tested on a small scale. The proposed work involves the testing
of twelve (12) Cherne Thermal Rotor Modules. This size test will allow
for the determination of environmental effects that can be expected in
large power plant installations. The specific environmental effects that
are to be determined are as follows:
A. Plume Definition - The plume of modified air that results downwind
of the spray cooling system will be analyzed and mapped.
B. Drift Characterization & Transport - Drift, which consists of
water droplets that are blowing downwind of the spray system will
be caught, measured and defined as a function of downwind distance
and wind velocity.
C. Thermodynamic Information - This test will also be used to determine
the effect on the thermodynamic performance of a cooling system
when a large number of modules are tested together.
(2) APPROACH: The approach to this testing is to install twelve (12)
Cherne Thermal Rotor Modules in a power plant location where hot
water is available and proceed to run tests during both the hot part
of the year and the cold part of the year. A complete set of instru-
mentation will be provided to measure the ambient conditions of the
air before and after it has passed through the spray system.
CURRENT PLANS: At the present time, the test has not started and
TfTs estimated that it will start during 1975.

University. This symposium, to evaluate .Livestock waste management systems
and to chart a course for the future, will be held at the University of
Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, Illinois April 21-24, 1975.
Everyone who is or intends to become professionally involved in areas
related to livestock waste management, environmental sciences, agricul-
ture and engineering, including extension engineers, educators, public
or industry officials have been invited to participate and/or present
a paper. A program committee including representatives of all the co-
operating societies, organizations and agencies has selected 180 papers
from 250 submitted titles to develop a program consisting of 3 general
sessions and 31 central theme sessions. The program papers will report
the latest research results and will report evaluations of on-farm
installations of specific waste management systems. The program papers
will be published by ASAE in a Conference Proceedings.
A livestock waste management equipment show will have over 50
exhibits and will include both indoor and outdoor exhibits and field
demonstrations. The show has* been set up on an exhibit fee basis and
no costs of this exhibition are included in the budget for the Sym-
posium program.

The ultimate aim of the work being conducted on actinomycetes in
wastewater treatment plants is to control the growth of actinomycetes in
activated sludge mixed liquor, and to prevent the formation of actinomycetic
foams in a-1 types of activated sludge plants. The work planned for this
grant period will try to prove that the addition of anaerobic digester
supernatant to the aeration tanks can control the growth of actinomycetes
and the resultant foaming in full scale operational activated sludge plants.
Three waste treatment plants will be operated for a period of time
with little or no anerobic digester supernatnat return to the systems. It
is' envisioned that the foaming problem will develop. Digester supernatant
will then be added to the systems at a predetermined rate. Samples will be
analyzed in the laboratory for types and quantity of actinomycetes in the
foams and the activated sludges. The waste treatment efficiencies and oper-
ating parameters of the plants will also be monitored in order to study the
effect of the addition of the digester supernatant on the treatment process.

Prior work has shown that use of a heterogeneous catalyst markedly
enhances the rate of oxidation of organics in aqueous solution and allows
essentially complete removal of organics present, and that aqueous-phase
catalytic oxidation is economically competitive with other physical-
chemical wastewater treatment techniques for medium and high organic
concentrations. The principal objective of this work is to demonstrate
the practical applicability of aqueous-phase catalytic oxidation for the
removal of organics in industrial wastewater streams. Associated ob-
jectives are to evaluate catalyst durability and resistance to poisoning
under projected operating conditions; to develop catalysts which have
desired properties of durability, poison resistance and activity; to
identify catalyst poisons; and to demonstrate range of applicability of
aqueous-phase catalytic oxidation. Long term studies of the catalytic
oxidation of organics in four different industrial wastewaters will be
carried out in a small plug-flow reactor at temperatures from 150-220°C.
Several typical catalysts and several unique catalysts will be investi-
gated for required activity, durability and poison resistance.

OBJECTIVES
(1) To assess the potential of the aquaculture method of wastewater treatment as
a suitable means of treating municipal sewage waters in a mid-temperate
latitude on an annual basis.
(2) To provide a set of design criteria for implementation of the aquaculture
wastewater treatment method.
(3) To achieve an effluent quality .amenable to P.L. 92-500 and the 1977, 1983, and
1985 standards.
APPROACH
To evaluate differences between series operation of conventional lagoon treat-
ment and an aquaculturs system. Fish growth/unit time will be compared to
effluent quality and certain ecological water parameters to determine the con-
tribution of nutrient binding by the animals. Effluent quality of the conven-
tional retention series will be compared to effluent quality of the aquaculture
series.
PROGRESS
Studies conducted during the years 1971 - 1973 indicate.high effluent quality
may be obtained through fish culture operation in a series of conventional
lagoons. The design and approach of the prooosed project are patterned after
this pilot study.

The project is directed towards the problem of the dispersion and fate of
hazardous materials in large lakes and will emphasize the dispersion and fate of
materials in the near-shore and near-bottom aquatic and sedimentary environments
The project will (1) conduct a general but idealized study of the dispersion and*
fate of hazardous materials in the near-shore environment, including mathematical
modeling, and (2) apply these general studies to a specific hazardous material
and a specific site, including validation of the mathematical model by comparison
with field observations at this site. A major part of the project is an inves-
tigation of the exchange processes occurring at the sediment-water interface,
an important but not well understood component of the mathematical model. This
part of the project will involve field and laboratory work.

The two main objectives of this proposal are (1) the direct assessment of the
relative toxicity of combustion products of 4 different diesel fuels as emitted
from a diesel engine and diluted and cooled to gas concentrations and temperatures
compatible with biological test systems; and (2) the measurement of the relative
biochemical toxicity of 6 or 7 chemically separable fractions from the collected
combustion products of one of the fuels.
A secondary objective is to utilize and compare the biochemical alterations
resulting when in vitro cell culture systems of human, baboon, and rodent blood and
lung origin are directly exposed and utilized as the biological test system.
The biochemical indices to be used upon exposure of baboon macrophages include
macrophage migration and response to MIF, phagocytic ability, aryl hydrocarbon
hydroxylase (AHH) activity, ATP concentration, and RNA precursor incorporation rate.
Upon exposure of other cell types, the following parameters will be measured;
collagen synthesis in WI-38 cells, response of baboon lymphocytes to mitogens, RNA
and DNA precursor incorporation rates, AHH activity and inducibility, proliferative
capacity, viability, and colony forming ability.
For each cell type, the induction of repair replication, indicative of damage
to the cell DNA, will be measured.

Previous and presently funded research by the Principal Investigator has demonstrated
important relationships between abundance of larval fishes, the concentration of
their food and both growth and survival. This proposal seeks to expand this research
to include larvae of two additional species that are common in Biscayne Bay, the
spotted seatrout and the lined sole. Optimal densities of stock and food will be
determined under standardized culture techniques. Results will contribute to base-
line knowledge for culturing larvae of marine fishes. Such knowledge will be
necessary to help evaluate effects of toxicants and pollutants on larval growth and
survival.
Embryos of seatrout are obtained by artificially fertilizing eggs from females that
are induced to spawn by injections of human chorionic gonadotropin. Lined sole
embryos can be collected in plankton nets, but an attempt to induce ovulation in
females by hormone injection also will be made. Pelagic larvae of both species
can be reared using standard techniques developed by the Principal Investigator. A
comparison of zooplankton and cultured rotifers as larval food will be included in
the study. Combinations of embryo stocking density and food concentrations will
be tested; growth, survival and yield will be compared at 16 days after hatching,
when experiments will terminate. Results will add to knowledge of factors
affecting laboratory growth and survival of several species of Biscayne Bay fish
larvae that differ greatly in morphology and behavior, thus allowing development of
some general concepts about the role of density dependent factors during their
early life stages.

The objective of this project is to evaluate existing ground-water
simulation models in terms of their utilization in predicting the movement
and quality of ground water. The work will involve a referee system using
common data, format, and output requirements. The completed report of this

(1) Objectives: Determine the fate and biological effects of low levels
of cadmium input to complex flowing water systems.
(2) Approach: Cadmium chloride will be introduced continuously into four
of six 300 foot long artificial stream systems for a 1 year period. Levels
established will be 2 ppb in two channels and 10 ppb in the other two.
Samples of water, sediment, channel liner, biota, export, and air will
be taken on a periodic basis for cadmium analyses. The structure and function
of the benthic and periphyton communities will be determined by detailed
species counts and productivity determinations. Sampling will continue
for an 8 month period after cadmium inputs are stopped.

The objectives of this project are to pursue results obtained in a
previous grant that showed that fuel sulfur inhibited nitrogen oxide
emissions resulting from atmospheric fixation. Specifically it is
planned to determine whether fuel desulfurization will have an adverse
effect on nitrogen oxide emissions, and to determine the chemical and
physical processes involved in sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide inter-
actions on combustion processes. In addition, general scale-up pro-
cedures will be developed, that allow small scale laboratory daca to be
extrapolated to real combustion systems. The approach will involve pilot
furnace tests on oil and coal firing, laboratory experiments using well
defined premixed and diffusion flames and theoretical modeling. Thus
it is hoped not only to investigate the existance of an effect, but also
to gain insight into how and why such an effect exists.

The object of the research is to provide a definitive state-of-the-art report con-
cerning the technical and economic feasibility of utilizing reverse osmosis (RO) based
techniques in the treatment of both ferrous and ferric acid mine drainage originating
in coal mining operations.
Information will be gathered from the work of previous investigators, treatment plant
operating experiences, industrial producers of RO and other acid mine drainage treatment
equipment, arid RO process synthesis research to be conducted by the WVU investigators
;at the EPA Crown Mine Drainage Control Field Site (Crown, WV). Studies to be performed
at Crown consist of lime, soda ash, and lime-soda ash neutrolosis utilizing a 60,000
gallon per day RO unit. Also included will be investigations of two stage RO processing
using both 60,000 and 4,000 gallon per day RO units, coupled ion exchange-RO processes,
and lime-soda softening of acid mine drainage as a pretreatraent step to RO processing.
All data from these studies will be factored into the report as required to present a
complete accounting of RO process potential for AMD treatment.

ness of fly ash, bottom ash, Ottawa sand, activated carbon, illite, kaolinite,
vermiculite, natural zeolites and activated alumina as absorbents for re-
moving the hazardous and toxic materials in the leachate and liquid portion
of the waste originating from petroleum refining sludge, metal finishing sludge
and calcium fluoride sludge from the electronics and air-craft industries.
These results of this study will provide information and recommendations

The objective of this research effort is to establish the final form of the
technical algorithms contained in the Pesticide and Nutrient Transport and Run-
off (PTR-Nutrients) Model, developed by Hydrocomp and the EPA Southeast Environ-
mental Research Laboratory in Athens, Georgia. These algorithms represent the
mechanisms of surface runoff, sediment loss, pesticide-soil interaction, pesticide
attenuation and plant nutrient behavior within the soil profile. They will be
'final' only in the sense that they will reflect our current understanding of
the specific mechanisms; future research and advancement of the state-of-the-art
will require modification and refinement. Data from the Piedmont and Great
Lakes test watersheds will provide the basis for final testing and refinement
of the Model algorithms prior to release of the PTR-Nutrients Model to public
users. This research effort will help to provide (1) a better understanding of
the basic transport modes of non-point source pollutants (sediment, pesticides,
nutrients, etc.) and (2) progress in the ultimate development of a tool for
regulation and control of such pollutants.

The overall objective of this research effort is to develop a model
capable of simulating the transport and runoff of agricultural chemicals
from relatively large stream basins. Such basins are distinguished
by the contribution of all components of streamflow (surface runoff,
interflow, groundwater flow), whereas smaller watersheds provide only
the surface runoff and interflow components.
The intent is to expand the scope of the Pesticide and Nutrient
Transport and Runoff (PTR Nutrients) Model developed by Hydrocomp and
the EPA Southeast Environmental Research Laboratory (SERL), in Athens,
Georgia. The PTR Nutrients Model simulates the movement by hydrologic
mechanisms of pesticides and nutrients on small watersheds. Numerous
complex mechanisms determine whether or not pollutants washed off these
small watersheds will be included in the total pollutant load leaving
the basin. These mechanisms include channel routing of flow and soluble
pollutants, and scour and deposition of sediment (and attached pollutants)
in stream channels. In addition to these processes, the research effort
will investigate and model the differing behavior of both forested and
agricultural lands.
In summary, the basin model resulting from this study will be ap-
plicable to the evaluation of pollutant contributions from basins com-
posed of both forests and croplands. In addition, data produced from
aerial remote sensing will be examined and analyzed for possible use
in model application.

The major objective of this project is to identify possible
impacts of coal mining and development in the Northern Great Plains on
the surface and ground water systems of the surrounding area. Specific
objectives are: (1) obtain an equation of balance for all water in-
flow and outflow in each of three study sites, one each in Montana,
North Dakota, and Wyoming; (2) characterize the overburden from a
physical and chemical point of view as well as determine its relation-
ship to the water coming to the surface; (3) characterize the chemical
features of the mined sites; and (4) determine hydrologic character
of spoils at active mine sites in Montana.
The proposed work is a key effort in the EPA program to assess
the surface and ground water problems associated with western coal.
Three sites will be studied. The first phase of this work is
the collection of base line data before mining. Some data will be
collected at two active mining sites in Montana to provide data for
the analysis.

A number of citrate analogs, with fluorescent tags, and "suicide compounds," will
he prepared so that they may be evaluated as selective or differential agents in colli-
form,. neromonas and vibrio enumeration media. These materials will therefore aid in the
development of improved methods for the enumeration of the above mentioned organises as
potential indicators of water quality.
The citrate analogs will be prepared in such a way that the three point attachment
of citric acid will not be disturbed. The fluorescent tag will therefore be attached
specifically to the free acetic acid residue and will allow the rapid and facile dif-
ferentiation of e. coli from other colliforms.
The'"suicide" compounds will be amino acid, fatty acid ester, or carbohydrate
Analogs bearing a toxic moiety such that deaminative or hydrolysis of the compound vill
eliminate the organism. These selective eliminations will permit more accurate analy-
tical techniques to be utilized in water quality evaluation without interference from
background organisms.

Objectives: (1) To determine the source, transfer and transformation
of potential pollutants on a rangeland watershed grazed by beef cows.
(2) To determine the monitor the hydrologic and meteorologic parameters
necessary to establish the water budget and movement of potential
pollutants from a rangeland. (4) To determine effects of cattle waste
concentration, chemical composition and distribution on levels of
potential pollutants in rangeland soils.
Approach: The water budget of the 70 hectare watershed will be
determined by measuring precipitation, soil water storage, and runoff.
Evapotranspiration will be determined by difference and from meteoro-
logical data. The source, transfer and transformation of potential
pollutants will be determined by measuring selected nutrient levels in
soil, plant, precipitation, feces and runoff water and sediment samples.
Seasonal rates of degradation will be determined by periodically measuring
the quantity and chemical composition of feces and selected soil, plant
and microclimatic factors. Forage chemical composition and utilization,
cattle diet and grazing behavior, and feces and urine distribution will
be also determined periodically.
Current Plans: The soil, vegetation, and topographic surveys will
begin as soon as funding is granted. Soil, plant and cattle studies will
begin after the surveys and inventories are^completed. Meterological
studies will begin after the necessary instruments are purchased and
made operational on the watershed. Runoff water and sediment sampling
will begin as soon as construction of the weir and installation of
the sampler is completed. Laboratory Analysis will be conducted with
minimum time lapse after collection.

This small scale pilot plant R&D program is divided into two
parts. The first part is concerned with the liquid extraction of
acrylonitrile and acetonitrile from acrylonitrile plant effluent. The
approach and plan are the same in both parts.
The following statements concerning Part I are applicable to Part II:
Solvents have been found" which will, according to theory and
laboratory experimental results, reduce the caprolactam concentration in
the effluent down to ppm. The extraction will be followed by a distil-
lation step in which only a very small proportion of water is distilled.
It appears that this proposed process will require approximately 107o
of the heat required to distill all the water.

The purpose of this investigation is to develop a methodology
and a monitor to detect a chronic or acute industrial discharge to a
municipal treatment system which would cause process upset and poor
performance. Biological sludge normally encountered in a municipal
system will be employed in a laboratory biological treatment unit to
simulate the operation of the wastewater treatment plant. The ten
industrial wastewaters determined to be major contributors will be
selected for evaluation in the laboratory simulator at varying dilutions
with a residential municipal waste. The monitor will be evaluated on
a pilot plant unit using a municipal waste. Parameters which will be
measured include pH, DO, conductivity, temperature, BOD,., TOG, COD, and
SS. Several other alternative monitoring approaches will be evaluated,
such as biological inhibitor detector (BID), ATP, TTC, and oxygen
uptake rate.
An evaluation will be made of the effects of the selected waste-
waters in various dilutions on the performance of municipal biological
wastewater treatment system.

tank. The unit will operate to close the loop in the Watts type nickel
rinsewater, thus reducing the overall plant waste load and volume
handled by the chemical treatment system. Economic factors are the
recovery of the nickel solution and the reduced cost of the chemical
treatment system.

Reverse osmosis (RO) will be used to treat rinse waters from electroplating
operations. This continuation program will consist of two phases. In Phase I,
an RQ unit will be installed on a zinc cyanide or acid zinc line and operated in an
open loop; that is, with reuse of purified water for rinsing but discharge of the
RO concentrate. In Phase II an evaporator will be installed to further dewater the
RO concentrate and the combined system operated closed-loop; that is, with return
of the RO concentrate to the plating bath. Each phase will last for seven
months.

This project will examine the influence of dosage on the disposition
and metabolism of various 75Se-selenium compounds administered to rats
in drinking water and will investigate the quantitative and temperal re-
lationship of selenium and GSH-peroxidase activity in tissues where
GSH-peroxidase may exert a protective effect against oxidative damage
of membranes and other cellular elements. Three approaches will be
used in this investigation: I. Examine the absorption, distribution and
excretion of 75Se-selenium and the influence of dosage and chemical form
on those parameters in experiments ranging up to 24 hours; II. Investigate
the biotransformation of inorganic and organic selenium compounds and
the relationship of selenium to the hepatic mixed function enzyme system;
III. Measure the absorption and distribution of 75Se-selenium administered
chronically in drinking water and study the influence of various factors,
such as mineral content in the water and dietary fat, carbohydrate, or
protein intake.
The information generated by these investigations will provide a
more rational basis for determining the range between nutritionally
adequate and toxic levels of selenium in drinking water.

Description of the Program - The program involves establishing a multi-material
source separation system in Marblehead, Massachusetts:
. Weekly curbside collection of flat paper and mixed cans and glass;
and
. Use of a compartmentalized collection vehicle
Program elements include: 1) Feasibility analysis (already completed); 2) Program
design; 3) Implementation; and 4) Evaluation and documetation.
Objectives - The objectives of this program are as follows:
. To demonstrate and evaluate a multi-materials source separation program
. To document the demonstration and facilitate information transfer to
other communities across the country.
In accomplishing the objectives outlined above, the program will demonstrate alterna-
tive source separation techniques, collection methods using a compartmentalized veh-
icle, and innovative methods of developing public participation in the program. It
is anticipated that the results of this demonstration program will be of considerable
benefit to other municipalities across the country, and that the techniques
developed can be directly transferred to other source separation programs.

The principle objective of this work will be to adapt the
centrifugal chromatography method for use in the separation 6f algal
pigments from natural surface waters. Many different column adsorbents
and solvents previously used to separate the chlorophylls will be tested
to determine which will give the best separations in the shortest time.
The initial phase of the study will be devoted to the determination of
the parameters of separation with standards of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll
a + b, extracted spinach, and extracted algal cultures. Then a survey
will be conducted with natural water samples. This method will be compared
to other methods used in water quality laboratories for analyzing
phytoplankton biomass and primary productivity.

The objectives of this study are: (A) To determine the extent of vegetation
injury and death associated with operating and completed refuse landfills throughout
the U.S. (B) Determine the factors which contribute to this vegetation injury or
death. (C) Present recommendations as to how to protect vegetation existing adjacent
to a refuse landfill. (D) Establish recommendations as to how to determine when and
how to plant vegetation on and/or about a refuse landfill. (E) Establish recommenda-
tions as to what species of vegetation would be best suited to living on and about a
refuse landfill.
The project will include field and laboratory investigations. The field
investigations will involve both a mail survey of the continental U.S. and Puerto Rico
to determine the extent of vegetation growth problems associated with refuse landfills.
This will be followed by on-site inspection of selected sites in 7 of the 8 major U.S.
meteorological regions. Measurements will be made of the soils, ground gases, and
other environmental parameters at each of the field sites. The laboratory investiga-
tions will entail a study of the effects of landfill gases and growing conditions upon
selected vegetation. Representative vegetation will also be planted at selected
landfill sites and observed for growth responses during this study.

The purpose of this proposed study is to determine the point in time and the
radiation dosage level at which the life span shortening effect begins to exert
itself in white rats. A minimum of 300 Sprague-Dawley pregnant rats will be used.
They will be exposed to 6.6, 26.0, 46.0 and 66.6 rads of chronic radiation
(tritiated water - HTO) during pregnancy. The pregnant rats (determined by
vaginal smears) will be weighed and placed in individualized cages for observation.
We will get the cages and glove boxes from the Research Triangle Park (RTP), possibly
on a loan basis. Our small animal room will be air conditioned and an exhaust
system will be installed.
The rats will be initially exposed at the RTP and transferred to St. Augustine's
College for observation.
Rats that show signs of stress, i.e., weight loss or sickness will be sacrificed
and the pathology of selected tissues will be done. The pathological condition of
sick rats will be compared with healthy rats. The results of these observations
over a long period (3 to 4 years) of time should give some indication of the
onset of the life shortening phenomenon as brought on by chronic HTO irradiation
at 6.6, 26.0, 46.0 and 66.6 rads.

Objectives: a. Utilize energy that currently is unused as one step
in an overall program to conserve natural resources.
b. Show methods of economically and reliably heating, cooling, and
managing enclosed growth structures using heated water for energy.
c. Evaluate the adequacy and determine problems of enclosed growth
structures as supplementary horizontal cooling towers with income potential.
Approach: Possible uses of low temperature water were studied. Enclosed
plant growth structures were identified as one of the best possibilities.
Investigative trips were made to a number of plant growth facilities
using traditional heating methods. Trips also were made to ORNL, TVA,
and EWEB to study and discuss laboratory and pilot methods of extract-
ing heat from low temperature water. The heating system was designed
using pipes in the soil and finned tube unit heat exchangers. The
system permits the addition of heat pumps to raise the water temperature,
if necessary. Cooling is accomplished by an evaporative pad and air mov-
ing system.
Current Plans: The structure will be erected in mid 1975 and will
become operative immediately.1 Boilers will be used to provide the warm
water as the power plant is under construction and will not begin operation
until 1976. Tomatoes will be the initial crop. Seedless cucumbers,
lettuce, roses, chrysanthemums and forest tree seedlings will be
included later. The project should demonstrate the economic feasibility
of using otherwise wasted heat and result in a number of commercial
applications being provided heat by the new generating plant and by others
scheduled for future construction.

Project objectives are demonstration of solvent extraction as a
treatment method for wastewater from various acetic-acid manufacture pro-
cesses, as well as determination of the most attractive process configuration,
choice of solvent(s) and operating conditions. Experimental information
will .be obtained on composition of wastewaters, equilibrium with solvent
phases, efficiency of extraction in a mini-plant RDC countercurrent ex-
tractor, and regeneration of solvent by evaporation and rectification.
The incentive for recovery of chemical values from the extracted pollutants
will be investigated.
Principal extraction processes initially under consideration use both
a relatively non-volatile polar solvent^ and a non-polar volatile solvent,
with the former serving the purpose of removing the majority of the COD
content of the wastewater, and the latter serving to remove residual
dissolved polar solvent from the treated water.

Study determines virus content and distribution in three water-borne
solids: (a) filter "mud", the residue from prefilters and membrane filters
used to concentrate viruses; (b) activated sludge solids; and (c) feces
(or segments of intestinal tract with fecal contents). Solids will be
fractionated on basis of density and particle size by settling and centrifu-
fation. 125j_ or 32p_iabeied entero-, reo- and adenoviruses will be
added to each fraction to determine reversible and irreversible binding of
viruses, to study factors affecting release of viruses from each fraction,
and to determine antigenic or physical changes in the virions. Fecal
pellets and compacted sludge solids will be fixed and embedded in water
soluble polymers. Sections will be examined by autoradiography and elec-
tron microscopy for concentrations of viral antigen associated with mono-
cytes, exfoliated cells, bacterial floes, ciliates, etc. Viruses coated
with coproantibody will be concentrated by means of 2-phase polymer systems,
and quantitated by RIA and immunoelectron microscopy. Field studies of
wild enteroviruses in activated sludge solids and combine overflows will
be initiated at Syracuse, New York.

Our objective is to study the recycling of waste plastics by rein-
forcement with glass fibers. Recycling plastics involves reheating which
can cause the plastic to lose strength and become embrittled and discolored.
The principal problem in recycling or reprocessing plastics is that different
polymers are generally not compatible with each other. Blends of incompatible
polymers are frequently very brittle and cannot be considered for many appli-
cations. Glass reinforcement increases tensile strength, modulus, heat dis-
tortion temperature, compressive strength, flexural strength, abrasion
resistance, and flame resistance. Our objective is to reinforce plastic
blends of polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride and polystyrene
and, thereby, obtain structural plastics.

The primary project objectives are: (1) the development and operational evaluation of
a comparatively inexpensive system for automatic, real-time acquisition and analysis of
hydrologic data from multiple remote locations, (2) development and testing of a dis-
tributed parameter watershed model for real-time catchment simulation, and (3) imple-
mentation of the data acquisition system of the first objective on a 12,000 A watershed
approximately 125 mi. from the on-line acquisition computer.
The on-line mini-computer acquisition system uses a dedicated telephone line to acquire
data from the remote watershed. Transducers on the watershed are battery operated and
use radio telemetry to send data to a central location where it is stored and simul-
taneously transmitted to the remote computer.
The watershed model is based upon the concept of sub-dividing the catchment into small
elements and integrating their dynamic responses. Real-time simulation will be based
upon the data transmitted to the on-line acquisition system. Actual simulation calcu-
lations will be accomplished on a computer separate, but linked together with, the on-
line mini-computer.
The test watershed on which the automatic instrumentation will be installed also has
water quality sampling equipment. The operation of this equipment will be controlled
using a feed-back concept based on an analysis of watershed conditions by the on-line
mini-computer.

The primary objectives of this study are 1) to evaluate the
standard COD proceudre, using silver sulfate as the catalytic agent, for
the purpose of understanding more about the nature of the chemical process,
2) to evaluate other non toxic metal ions that may be used as substitutes
for silver as catalyst in COD determiniations, and 3) to evaluate new
catalytic agents for COD determinations, standardize the procedure, and test
their validity on real world samples.
The successful completion of this one year project should give rise
to a reservoir of useful comparative data on the standard COD procedure
and an economically available substitute catalyst for silver sulfate in the
standard determination.

rne basic objectives of this investigation is to estimate and assess the life quality pa-
rameters of a population subjected to competing risks, such as being exposed to risks
of death which may be either disease oriented or extraneous or induced. This situation)
is called the case of competing risks. The usual life table method of estimating sur-
vivorship assumes a constant mortality rate in each class interval. This is not consis-
_knt with real world situation because besides the disease factors, this method totally
Pfnores the phenomenon of aging and other competing environmental and disease ori-
ented risks. In the field of modeling where concomitant competing risks are present,
this proposed investigation hopes to overcome to a large extent the major shortcomings
of the currently available methods in the literature, such as the assumption of a con-
stant mortality rate for each risk factor because it is the simplest thing to deal with
and finally the lack of small sample procedures for dealing with techniques based on
more realistic assumptions on the mortality rates in the presence of both marginal as
well as simultaneous (competing) risks. We therefore propose to deal with the com-
peting risk problem mentioned above by first dealing with the raw data without resort-
ing to any grouping whatsoever, and secondly, by assuming very realistic models for
the mortality rates which reflect the real life experiences and finally by applying the
recently discovered (see EPA reports 1, 2, and 3 by Murthy et al.) and more appropri-
ate than the current statistical methods for dealing with the new models and assessing
their relative performance. Examples based on data to "Event" from various environ-
mental, energy-orientated and clinical disciplines will be extensively dealt with in the
proposed effort.

The long range goal is to demonstrate the applicability of a marsh (natural or artific-
ial) treatment system to control and/or prevention of water pollution by municipal
discharge from small communities. Artificial marshes constituting a pilot plant and
consisting of several shallow, plastic-lined basins have been constructed. Several
species of emergent vegetation have been tested and the soft-stem bulrush, Scirpus
validus, has been selected for intensive studies. The pilot plant has received
municipal secondary effluent and will receive primary effluent in future work.
Flows into and out of basins are metered and sampled periodically. Plans are made to
study several different retention times. Nutrient removal is effected by harvesting
and physically removing leaves and stems. Nutrient (especially phosphorus) removal
is maximized by harvesting young shoots. Harvesting is possible at three to four
week intervals during the growing season. High reductions have been observed in BOD,
suspended solids, and numbers of coliform bacteria. In addition to pilot plant
studies an evaluation is being made of changes in quality of polluted water flowing
through a natural marsh. It appears that in the case currently under study the effect
of the marsh is to improve the character of the water flowing into it to a quality
better than that upstream from the pollution source.

The objective of this project is to develop, demonstrate, and
use methods and procedures for clarifying the relationship between
oxidant precursors (specifically hydrocarbon and oxides of nitrogen)
and oxidant (ozone) based on studies of ambient air. Understand-
ing of this relationship is vital to sound development of control
strategy, air quality standards, and emission standards. In photo-
chemical smog the major health hazard (ozone) is a secondary pro-
duct of a very complex reaction of primary pollutants (hydro-
carbons and nitric oxide) which are not themselves highly toxic.
A new gas chromatographic procedure has been devised which per-
mits direct measurement of ambient concentrations of methane,ethane,
acetyplene and total C3+ hydrocarbons. This procedure is automated
to.provide repetitive samples around the clock. These data will
be compared with NOX data and oxidant levels to better define the
relationship between oxidant and its precursors, hydrocarbon and
nitrogen oxides. The intensive data collection phase of the project
is just beginning (February 1975).

The objective of the project is to demonstrate the feasibility of, and the methods
by which, pollutional discharges containing high concentrations of dissolved metals
may be abated from two inactive pyrite mines and their pyrite-laden wastes washed
into the stream bed and flood plain of Contrary Creek.
The project will be implemented by: (1) determining the extent of surface and under-
ground mining and their interrelationship, (2) documenting existing stream quality
problems by evaluating available existing stream and discharge flow and quality data;
(3) evaluating specific abatement measures that can be utilized; (4) estimating costs
and effectiveness of applicable abatement measures; (5) constructing those abatement
measures deemed to be most effective for the money expended; (6) monitoring streams
before and after construction to determine effectiveness of abatement measures; and
(7) performing a biological evaluation of the receiving waters after construction
to be correlated with a biological evaluation already conducted.
This project area was selected because: (1) the affected area is relatively small
but is causing severe water quality problems; (2) techniques proved to be effective
here can be used in similar problem areas; (3) the pollutional discharges flow via
Contrary Creek into Lake Anna, the waters of which will be used for cooling purposes
at a nuclear power plant currently under construction downstream. Significant con-
centrations of heavy metals in solution in the cooling waters could cause serious
problems during power plant operation.

Atmospheric fates of many of the halogenated compounds proposed here for study are un-
known. Significant quantities of these compounds are emitted into the troposphere, and
the sources are primarily anthropogenic. Many halocarbons have been measured in the
ambient air, and this list will be expanded by using new cryogenic concentrating pro-
cedures. New and better calibration methods will be developed. Initial investigations
indicate that both stratospheric and tropospheric removal mechanisms are operating.
The possible stratospheric ozone destruction by stable halocarbons, the toxicity of
phosgene, and the indicated carcinogenicity of vinyl chloride and its structural simi-
larity to other ambient chloroethylenes make continued research urgently needed. It is
also imperative to study the unknown long-term effects of halogenated compounds, their
! reaction products, and the potential utility of halocarbons jas tracers of large air
masses.
The fate of the proposed halocarbons will be assessed in three phases: (1) ambient
halocarbon measurements at urban, nonurban, over-the-ocean, and background locations,
(2) laboratory irradiation experiments to study the tropospheric chemistry of halocarborjs
under representative atmospheric conditions, and (3) validation and assimilation of
available information on a continuous basis. Nonreactive halocarbons will be used to
study the transport of other important urban air pollutants (e.g., Ox and SOX) to sur-
rounding nonurban areas. Preliminary studies on stratospheric removal mechanisms of
stable compounds will be conducted.
The overall effort will be coordinated with other SRI research activities to optimize
instrument (SRI Mobile Laboratory) and manpower availability, and will be completed in

Three underdrained pilot infiltration-percolation basins that have
been constructed will be subjected to weekly application of 0.46 and
0.61 meters of stabilization pond effluent by flooding. By analyzing
samples of influent and effluent and recording water level changes in
the pilot units, the infiltration-percolation system of land disposal
will be evaluated.
Specific objectives of this investigation are to:
1. Demonstrate the use of infiltration-percolation
land disposal as a means of up-grading existing
secondary treatment to meet new effluent standards
for BOD, suspended solids, and fecal coliforms
while removing phosphorus and oxidizing ammonia
nitrogen to nitrate to meet new ammonia standards,
2. Determine acceptable loading rates for both a scarified
and undisturbed silty loam soil, underdrained with
perforated pipe at a depth of 2% feet, for climatic
conditions similar to those at Brookings, South Dakota
and,
3. Identify winter operating constraints imposed by the
climatic conditions at this site.

The objective of the proposed research is to evaluate static high
pressure (SHP) as an improved method for preserving water samples for
microbiological and biological analyses and for shipping reference check
samples to laboratories participating in quality assurance programs.
SHP will be evaluated by testing selected pure cultures of Escherichia
coli, Streptococcus faecalis and the al,ga, Selenastrum caprocornutum under
varying pressure, temperature and storage time conditions and with various
cryogenic preservative agents. The cultures must maintain stable, viable
counts. Control samples will be held under the same environmental con-
ditions with no pressure applied and bacterial densities will be compared
to those under test conditions.
When optimum conditions are established additional cultures representa-
tive of waterborne pathogens and fresh, saline and wastewaters will be
tested. Reference check samples will be tested in cooperation with EPA
laboratories. In the final phase SHP equipment will be designed specifi-
cally for the preservation of field samples and shipment of reference
check samples.

(1) Objectives - The primary objective of this proposal is the development of methods
and techniques to formulate laboratory diets for larval and juvenile marine fish. Such
diets are needed in order to achieve high levels of survival and field-comparable
growth of laboratory-cultured animals. If successful, the laboratory marine fish will
exhibit minimum variability in lab bioassay due to nutritional stress. Menidia menidia
and Pseudopleuronectes americanus will be used as test fish.
(2) Approach - Test diets will be evaluated for protein availability and storage
stability. The nutritional status of field and diet-fed populations will he minparoH
The life history stages will include eggs, yolk-sac larvae, post-yolk-sac larvae and
juveniles.
(3) Current Plans - Apparent nutritional needs will be determined by qualitative
analysis of eggs, yolk-sac larvae., post yolk-sac larvae and juveniles. The sources of
nutrients will be determined by qualitative analysis of laboratory-prepared live or
artificial food materials. The test diets formulated from qualitative information will
then be assessed for protein availability and storage stability using growth studies
with the test fish, rat and rainbow trout. Finally, the nutritional status of the
larvae and juveniles will be compared with field populations using appropriate
response parameters: survival, growth, biochemistry, behavior and stress response.

The objective of this project is to develop a comprehensive mathematical model
which provides a rational design method for feedlot pollution control facilities
The design of an optimum feedlot pollution control system will consider the histori-
cal rainfall and temperature records of the selected location, the free water surface
evaporation rate, the ability of local crop land to accept feedlot runoff as well
as applicable pollution control regulations. The output of this design procedure is
the retention pond volume, irrigation system capacity and land area required to meet
various degrees of pollution control.
Once this model has been developed and listed, it will be used to construct a set of
runoff-reservoir design nomographs for each of the test sites. Further utilization
of the model will allow input of data from any new site by inputting the appropriate
climatological and soils data.

I. Objectives - 1. To demonstrate on a commercial scale total recycling of spent
brines produced during pickle fermentations.
2. To determine whether significant build up of potentially toxic substances will
occur with recycling.
3. To determine the degree of reduction of waste effluents which can be attained
by implementation of this procedure.
II. Approach: Spent brine from commercial cucumber fermentations will be either pas-
teurized or chemically treated with NaOH to inactivate potential softening enzymes and
kill microorganisms. The treated brine will be reused as a cover brine in commercial
cucumber fermentations. This will be done for two brining seasons.
Brines will be analyzed for appropriate waste parameters, microbiological counts
and mineral content, including Pb, Cd, Hg and pesticide buildup. Fermented cucumbers
will be analyzed for bloater damage, organoleptic quality, texture, mineral analysis
and pesticide accumulation.
Data will be obtained on pectinase stability in spent brines to minimize energy
or chemical requirements for treatment and to assure adequate treatment.
The cost of each treatment method and the degree of waste reduction achieved will
be determined.
III. Current Plans:
To initiate this approach for the 1975 cucumber brining season.

The primary objective of this demonstration is to demonstrate the
technical and economic feasibility of composting raw dewatered municipal
sewage sludge by high rate suction aeration under the adverse climatic
conditions typically experienced by many of the municipalities located
in the New England, Great Lakes, Midwestern, and Northwestern States.
Secondary objectives consist of a wide range of operational and procedural
elements all related directly or indirectly to the physical location and
climatological conditions of this demonstration.
The sludge will be delivered to the site once per week at a volume
of approximately 50 cu. yd. Upon arrival at the site wood chips are mixed
with the sludge at a ratio of 3:1, wood chips to sludge by volume. The
mixture is then moved to the composting area which is a concrete pad with
two twenty foot lengths of pipe connected to a blower. The blower
operates at two minute intervals every twenty minutes. The blower draws
air through the mixture and assists the composting pile in achieving
higher and more even temperature distribution. The wood chips absorb
moisture and create voids which also assist in the thermal distribution
and assist in keeping a constant oxygen content. Temperatures must
exceed 55 degrees Centigrade throughout the pile to insure complete
pathogen kill. Therefore, temperature and oxygen content must be mon-
itored daily. The entire process takes approximately fourteen days. An
additional thirty days of curing after the pile is removed from the blower
area is recommended before use, as the pule will continue to compost
naturally. The final product is useful as a supplement to commercial
fertilizer and can assist in lowering the cost of maintaining public land.
Also the disposal of sludge is eliminated and if successful this process
will eliminate the need for expensive digesters presently used in secondary
waste water treatment plants.

The purpose of the proposed research would be threefold:
(1) to determine how sublethal levels of juvenile hormone mimics
and insect growth regulators may effect survival of developing
invertebrate larvae, from hatching to the juvenile stages, the
way in which these compounds may alter the length of larval develop-
ment under laboratory culture conditions, and how the effect of
these compounds may be diminished or accentuated by stress conditions
of the environment; (2) the way in which sublethal levels of these
compounds may effect behavior of larval stages, initially deter-
mined experimentally by measurement of swimming speeds and di-
rectional orientation to a light stimulus (phototaxis); and (3)
the way in which sublethal levels of these compounds may produce
long-term mutagenic effects on small marine copepods which can be
maintained under laboratory culture for up to 45 generations.

Amounts of chlorine presently used in the drainage basin of
Chesapeake Bay, and probably also some other large estuaries, could be
^Large enough to sterilize the Bay if this chlorine were not degraded.
Bv review of degradation processes reveals that perhaps 1% of the total
^chlorine may be converted to halogenated organic compounds, and it is
suggested that some of these may be long-lived and susceptible to
biomagnification. Arguments are given to indicate that organic
compounds produced by chlorination of estuarine and marine waters may
differ fundamentally from those produced by chlorination of river water
and sewage in that bromine derivatives may predominate over chlorine
derivatives in the marine waters.
A research project is proposed to test these ideas in the field
near a power plant which employs 4-15%«. estuarine water for cooling,
and chlorinates this to control fouling. The site is free of other
nearby anthropogenic sources. The objectives of the project will be
to: (1) identify and quantify the halogenated organic compounds
produced by the plant, and (2) determine chemical factors controlling
yields of the various compounds by studying the cooling waters under a
variety of conditions.

(1) The objective of this study is to develop an information manual,
a technical report and obtain 16 mm color film footage for a training film
on the protection and restoration technology for marshes, bogs and shore-
lines of cold-climate environments endangered or damaged by oil spills. The
information manual will be designed to acquaint land managers, industrial
concerns and others with available technology, rationale and experts who
can be of assistance in treating damaged sites as well as preventing
damage to endangered sites. The technical report will cite research ad-
vancements and identify areas needing research attention. The film will
focus on peculiar problems of cold climates, such as ice, storm conditions
and habitat uniqueness.
(2) The work will focus on literature searches, interviews, and on-site
observations. Persons involved with petroleum resource extraction, re-
finement, transportation and marketing, oil spill researchers and land
management responsibilities will be interviewed. Spills and pertinent:
research sites in Alaska and adjacent Canada will be examined, evaluated
for their effectiveness and limitations in cold climates.
(3) Currently literature search is underway and contacts for potential
interviews are being established. The principle investigator has scheduled
attendance at the 1974 Conference on Prevention and Control of Oil Pol-
lution in San Francisco, California. All oil spill reports received at the
Anchorage EPA office are being cataloged for compilation.

The purpose of the project is the determination of the potential health
hazard posed by enteric viruses contained in the effluents of wastewater treatment
plants used in irrigation schemes. The approach used is the plaque assay for polio
virus as viral indicator organism in plant influents , effluents , ground waters and
ultimate receiving streams as well as in soil core eluates. Assays are to be
performed immediately after irrigation and at several times thereafter to deter-
mine viral die-off rates and migration rates, beasonal influences (heat, cold,
drying, soil saturation) will be studied as well.
In laboratory studies , virus recoveries from cores dosed with poliovirus
in plant effluent have averaged 20% and survivals as long as 15-35 days have
been obtained at room 'temperatures . The comparison with field conditions is

The purpose of the proposed project is to produce a report that (1) describes the
complex institutional arrangements that are presently involved in managing the environ-
mental concerns of, the nation's metropolitan regions, (2) that develops a set of criterija,
supporting arguments, and procedures for evaluating the entire set of institutional
arrangements for regional environmental management in specific regions, and (3) that
provides a conceptual framework for assessing existing or anticipated policy decisions,
such as legislative provisions, regulations, or organizational reforms that are related)
to regional environmental management.
The report from this research is meant to provide a comprehensive perspective to
aid Federal and state policy-makers in assessing specific policy decisions. It is meant
to provide a state-of-the-knowledge assessment that will suggest needed research or pro-
gram initiatives. And, it is meant to provide a background for case study evaluations
of specific policy choices or of institutional arrangements in particular regions.
The approach consists primarily of analysis and integration of pertinent literatu^
from the fields of environmental management and regional governance, supplemented with
limited visits to selected states and regions and interviews with a number of scholars
and public officials knowledgeable in the field.

1) Measure adsorption and desorption characteristics and major
parameters required to describe these processes over a wide range of
chemical concentrations (zero to container concentration) for selected
pesticide-soil systems; 2) Determine the influence of initial and imposed
soil-water conditions and adsorption-desorption characteristics on
the movement and distribution of selected pesticides when applied to
the soil at high concentrations; 3) Measure chemical and microbial
degradation rates and identify toxic or selected metabolites in specific
soil-pesticide systems receiving high organic chemical concentrations;
4) Determine the influence of high pesticide concentrations on soil
microbial activity for selected soil-pesticide systems; 5) Demonstrate
the applicability of existing mathematical models to describe migration
and degradation rates in soil-pesticide systems associated with chemical
disposal sites.
The mobility, adsorption-desorption characteristics, and degradation
rate of methyl parathion (insecticide), 2,4-D (herbicide), atrazine
(herbicide), triflurolin (herbicide), and terbacil will be studied using
various soils and high pesticide concentrations. Toxic and nontoxic
metabolites of these pesticides will be identified and their production
during microbial and chemical degradation quantified. Analytical and
commercial formulations of each pesticide as well as 14 -labeled chemicals
will be used throughout the study period. The major goal of the project
will be to identify parameters and processes that can be used to predict
the behavior and fate of specific pesticides in a waste burial site. A
mathematical model will be evaluated for its ability to describe the
movement and distribution of a pesticide from a point source of high
concentration (disposal).

mobile laboratories. These measurements are being made in con-
junction with a complete array of chemical, physical and meteorolog-
ical measurements. In conjunction with other collaborators of the
team, new models for the conversion and transport of sulfate areosols
are being developed.
Also, experiments on the generation of sulfate aeEosols,
S02, NOx, HC, and hetrogeneous aerosols are being conducted in a
laboratory smog chamber.
In addition to providing a new data base for sulfur conversion,
these experiments have already provided a new understanding of the fate
of sulfur in urban and power plant plumes. Also, a new trimodal
model for atmospheric aerosol size distributions has been developed.
Improvements in the already developed automatic aerosols size
distribution measuring system will be made. A new automatic aircraft
aerosol sampler for microscopy is being developed.

The objectives of this study are to evaluate on a full plant-scale
basis; (1) The reliability and effluent variability of a 15 mgd advanced
wastewater treatment (AWT) system producing a water approaching potable
quality for use in groundwater replenishment and prevention of seawater

measurement, and monitoring of trace materials (chemical, physical, and
biological) and residues. Particular emphasis will be placed on the charact-
erization of the organic materials in the effluent using the latest gas
chromatographic/mass spectrophotometrie procedures.
The AWT system treats the effluent from a trickling filter plant using
lime coagulation and sedimentation, ammonia stripping, recarbonation,
filtration, carbon adsorption, and chlorination. This effluent will be
blended with desalted seawater and/or a supply of deep groundwater for

Long Island Expressway will be used for collection of data over a period
of one year. Instrument towers will be erected, in a plane perpendicular
to the highway, on both sides and in the median. These towers, sup-
plemented by ground stations, will have instrumentation to provide
carbon monoxide data at 32 grid points; particulate sampling at 8 points;
wind speed and direction at 11 grid points; and vertical temperature
difference, temperature, relative humidity, radiation, rainfall, nitric
oxides and ozone at one point. Also to be used,but not continually, are
two sonic anemomometers and fourteen tracer gas sampling stations.
This data base will be used to: (1) document the distribution of
carbon monoxide, lead, sulfate and total particulates adjacent to a highway;
(2) study in detail the micrometerology with special attention to those
parameters important in the determination of sigma and stability values
and highway-generated turbulence; (3) re-evaluate highway air pollutant
emission factors; and (4) determine the applicability of existing highway
.air pollutant dispersion models.

The manual of practice will set out the rationale in pre-mining
site evaluation so that mining and reclamation will be done in a manner
so as to not only comply with existing and proposed state and federal
mining programs but ensure minimal environmental damages:. The site
evaluation will include the evaluation of the soil and rock properties,
surface and ground water resources, physical and cultural features, and
methods of mining and reclamation. It will consider the geological and
hydrological setting prior to mining as the basic inputs to the pre-
mining planning. The manual of practice will provide guidelines and means
of assessing alternatives in the areas of water management, land use
planning, and surface mine engineering, and will be mostly based on
information gained from literature review and critical evaluation of methods
as reported in the literature and applied in the field. The MtO.P. shall
recommend methods, techniques and alternatives for selecting and de-
signing mining systems to achieve soil handling and storage, and over-
burden handling, segregation and disposal. It will be presented in an
orderly and concise manner. Liberal use of charts, maps, graphs, diagrams,
and photographs will be made to substantiate the description.
The Manual of Practice (M.O.P.) will be designed to assist mine
operators and control personnel in developing, evaluation and selecting
mining and reclamation plans that will be least detrimental to the environ-
ment, prior to the commencement of mining.

In order to assure that subsurface disposal is conducted in the
most effective and environmentally cognizant manner, an Engineering
Guide is proposed to assist in standardizing construction, operation,
maintenance and monitoring features of waste injection systems. The
proposed Guide will encompass the entire spectrum of waste injection
beginning with site evaluation through system design, operation and
maintenance, monitoring, abandonment, and regulation. The Guide is to
provide recommended standards for "in the field" use as well as a
basis for state and federal regulations, if necessary. The Guide would
be of particular importance to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
in supporting its responsibilities under Public Law 92-500 and the Safe
Drinking Water Act of 1974, Public Law 93-523.
The proposed Engineering Guide and accompanying report on abandoned
wells will be designed to meet the following major needs:
(1) To serve as a field applications and design manual for waste
injection systems, emphasizing all design and construction features
relating to the potential pollution of the ground water resource.
(2) To serve as a comprehensive source of technical information on
all aspects of waste injection systems, including an annotated bibliog-
raphy of such technical information as case histories of existing
installations, design considerations, etc.
(3) To serve as the first comprehensive report on current practices
of well abandonment, their impact on water supplies, and the methodology
necessary to correct the situation in the future.

The objective of the project is to determine the efficiency of the
rotating biological contactor (RBC) system in treating effluent from a
liquid detergent manufacturing plant. Efficiency will be compared to an
extended aeration system now in operation and advantages and disadvantages
of the experimental system identified.
A pilot unit will be operated with the same food as the existing plant
and performance under various conditions will be determined. Variables to
be evaluated include performance at optimum conditions compared to ex-
tended aeration, maximum loadings to the system, performance under variable
loadings, performance at wastewater temperatures experienced both during the
summer and winter.
The project is expected to be completeduwithin twelve months of
initiation.

The proposed research seeks to identify the chlorine-containing
organic compounds that are formed when chlorine is added to seawater.
Initial emphasis would be on reaction conditions that occur during
power plant operations; i.e., up to 2 hours at temperatures up to
38C with and without sunlight. Chlorine-36 would be used so that
reaction products could be assayed with liquid scintillation counting.
Total organic chlorne compound yield would be measured. The reaction
products would be fractionated, using selective solubility and thin
layer chromatography. The fractions would be bioassayed with Acartia
tonsa and the most toxic fractions taken for initial work. Character-
ization would be primarily with gas chromatographic-mass spectral
techniques and additional characterization would be based on UV and
IR spectra with NMR for special cases.

Small euhedral and framboidal forms of pyritic sulfur have been
shown to be positively associated with acid mine drainage problems and,
in turn, the reactive framboidal pyrite is found only with rock strata
of a particular paleoenvironment. As a criterion for predicting the
occurrence of acid mine drainage in advance of mining, the present
study tested the hypothesis that the type of pyritic sulfur in the
coal could be predicted by the deppsitional environment-! 'of the over-
lying strata.
The results to date are very encouraging; back barrier and lower
delta plain samples have sulfur contents that range from 3-5% and
every sample contains abundant framboidal pyrite. These strata will
probably produce severe degrees of acid mine drainage. In the alluvial
coals there appears to be a paucity of framboidal pyrite. However, an
inadequate sampling design precludes a definite conclusion based on the
absence of the reactive pyrite. In general, the results obtained thus
far reflect some very promising trends in developing a technique that
uses the paleoenvironment of a stratum to predict the quality of the
drainage expect there from.
The present study will be expanded to incorporate an effort that
will be directed toward the careful documentation of criteria which are
necessary for the identification of acid producing coal and spoil through
a field manual of core and rock photographs. A variety of samples that
represent the "standard" rock types will be collected, analyzed, and
appraised of the acid production potential of a stratum utilizing the
pyrite morphology, total sulfur content and the permeability of the
stratum. These data will be used to develop a technique that will
identify strata which in some areas will produce acid mine drainage,
locate strata in the highwall that should be segregated for burial or
surface dressing, and that field techniques regarding overburden
handling for the amelioration of problems or enhancement of reclamation
efforts. With the field base thus established and samples collected
we will proceed on a pilot project dealing with the role of depositional
environments in determining the distribution of trace elements in coal.

The three main objectives of this study are: 1) establish and document by field
measurements the sulfur budget in large single plumes, 2) identify the major physical
and chemical mechanisms and parameters which govern the sulfur budget, 3) Formulate
and test a dispersion-transformation-removal model for SO- and aerosol. Instrumented
aircraft and surface vehicles will be used for the detailed plume mapping of fixed
distances from the source outward to 100 km. Using wind field data from pilot balloon
measurements, the horizontal sulfur flux will be measured in the gas and aerosol phase.
The aerosol mass and sulfur content will be measured by a high resolution $-guage and
vaporization-flame photometric method, respectively. These data will be utilized to
establish the amounts of SC>2 converted to aerosol and its rate and the amount of
sulfur^removed by dry deposition. The data will be used for the improvements and
extension of dispersion-transformation-removal models.

The objectives of this project are:
1) To convert a three pass diffused air system to a single pass open tank pure
oxygen system.
2) To evaluate the performance of the pure oxygen system at varying food to
microorganism ratios, detention times, ambient temperature, and diurnal flow
conditions.
3) To determine design criteria for a full plant scale conversion of the existing
secondary system to an open tank pure oxygen system, as they relate to oxygen
utilization efficiency, solids settling characteristics, power requirements
for oxygen dissolution, and reliability of oxygen diffusion and control equip-
ment.
4) To demonstrate '-the €eaei&ility of using this technology at other overloaded
activated sludge plants that could benefit from upgrading of existing tankage
and facilities.
Operation at Metro over the past four year of very fine bubble pure oxygen diffusion
systems in open tank (up to 0.5 MGD) has demonstrated the potential of the oxygen
system for upgrading the existing system at lower cost than other alternatives. The
smaller scale pilot plants did not, however, have adequate clarifiers for obtaining
data necessary to determine limiting conditions of the process. It is the intent
of this project to provide for installation of 13 rotating active diffusers and
oxygen monitoring and control equipment to evaluate system capacity over a wide
range of conditions and for optimizing process results.

The proposed study is intended to evaluate the performance of the
newly installed extended aeration and aerobic pond systems for the
treatment of salmon processing waste water. The systems will be exam-
ined at various operation conditions. The results will be analyzed to
determine if the control efficiencies of the systems are adequate to
meet the subject process waste effluent limitations (operational modi-
fications will be made in order to improve systems performance when
necessary). Meanwhile, treated water quality will be evaluated to de-
termine its feasibility for salraonid propagation that is intended in
the near future by the council in order to complete the turnkey opera-
tion - salmonid propagation and processing. This type of investment
will improve employment opportunity and economy of the tribal community.
Both extended aeration and aerobic ponds systems constructed near
the council's salmon processing plant in Shelton, Washington provide
the flexibilities for flow bypassing and adjustments. These flexibili-
ties will allow the investigators to evaluate the systems at various
conditions. The results will be reduced to useful forms. The engi-
neering criteria will be derived/documented for future design appli-
cation. These design criteria derived will be very useful and extremely
important to fish processing waste control due to the lack of data
available to date.

The chlorinated insecticide toxaphene is being used to the extent of 55 million
pounds per year and over one billion pounds have been used in the past 25 years.
The proposed program is concerned with several areas related to toxaphene. One is
to examine in detail the chemical and toxicological differences and similarities
of toxaphene and toxaphene-like materials used throughout the world during the past
25 years. Others are concerned with isolation or synthesis of toxic components
of the mixture and chemical and toxicological studies on these components. Finally,
the biochemical mode-of-action of the individual components will be examined.
To carry out these studies, standard techniques including adsorption, partition
and gas chromatography, spectroscopy (uv, ir, nmr, ms) and toxicological testing
with both insects and mammals will be utilized.

The generic objective of this research project and the thing that makes the research applicable on a
national basis is that it becomes part of a larger study to identify the performance capabilities of
well-designed and well-operated lagoons. The primary objective of this project is to generate reli-
able year round performance data for a typical multi-cell aerated lagoon waste disposal system.
Bixby, Oklahoma is a case in point. This lagoon, which consists of two cells in series using an air
aqua system, is located in the town of Bixby, Oklahoma, which is part of the Incog Multi-County
Planning System. The secondary objective is to utilize these data to evaluate the effectiveness of
the multirsystem lagoon to perform in accordance with its design criteria and the ability of such a
design criteria in performance to meet the secondary treatment standards as established by the Federal
Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972. This grant application proposes to generate and
evaluate data from this lagoon system similar to data for other we 11-designed, well-operated multi-
cell aerated or a combination aerated arrcUbculative lagoon. These data will be used not only to
assist design engineers and regulatory officials but should also assist EPA in its stated objective of de-
fining lagoon capabilities and upgrading needs. A great number of parameters will be studied in
considerable depth. Out of the parameter study alone should come two significantly useful things:
1) the more meaningful parameters conceivably could be used as routine operational tests, and 2) the
parameters can be interrelated to provide predictive equations for future design.

The overall objective of this investigation is to provide predictive inf creation
with regard to potential toxicants to the aquatic environment resulting from coal
and oil shale extraction and conversion. The specific objectives are to identify and
quantify those chemical products of coal and oil shale extraction and conversion
which may reach surface waters, and to determine by both field studies and laboratory
bioassays the degree to which those chemicals may be acutely or chronically toxic to
fish and aquatic invertebrates, or may become involved as part of the food chain.
Four categories of energy development will be considered: coal extraction, oil shale
extraction and processing, coal gasification, and coal-to-energy conversion.
Potential toxicants to the aquatic environment will be identified by a combination of
field, laboratory, and literature studies, as well as by Information gained from
cooperative input from other energy-related research programs. Concurrent chemical
and biological laboratory and field bioassays as well as aquatic distribution
studies will dictate which toxicants are most deleterious to the aquatic biota.
Feedback from these bioassays and distribution studies will dictate what additional
or alternate emphasis is required in the laboratory and field chemical studies.

Objectives;
1. To investigate the use of liqud sludge in seedling establish-
ment of turf.
2. To determine the feasibility of replacing fertilizer with
liquid sludge in the production of sod.
Reasons for Undertaking Work; The turf industry is continually faced
with the problem of re-establishing grass after the sod is removed
and sid. Grass seed is small, easily removed by erosion and subject
to severe drought because seedlings must be made on the surface
of the ground. The cost of seed aid timeliness of seeding dates limits -
the number of reseedings that the sod grower can attempt. Mulches from
straw and other materials aid greatly in seedling establishment but are
too costly for use by commercial sod producers. Thus, liquid sludge
would have considerable economic value if it could improve the seedling

Fertilizer costs have increased drastically during the past two
years. Talk of limiting fertilizer use to food crops threatens the
entire sod industry. If sludge can replace most of the fertilizer
needed for sod production, it should achieve ready acceptance by the
industry.

The proposed investigation is intended to separate, identify and quantitate poly-
nuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in selected natural and treated waters of the
United States. The problem will be divided into three segments: The first segment
will be devoted to developing a rapid and efficient method for removal of trace
quantities of PAH from natural waters. Two types of collection devices will be
examined: (I) flexible polyurethane foam, (II) continuous liquid-liquid extraction
based on mixed settling. The second segment will be devoted to local field testing
of the methodology and determination of PAH in drinking water, river and lake waters,
and ground water of the eastern United States. The third segment will be devoted to
analysis of EPA supplied drinking water samples collected from the major cities in
the U.S. The purification of PAH will be achieved by chromatography on alumina and/or
florisil. The eluate from column chromatographic separation would be analyzed by gas
and/or thin-layer chromatography. Alternatively, PAH will be separated by high speed
liquid chromatography with ultraviolet photometric detector. The identification of
isolated material will be based on their TLC Rf values, their g.c. retention times
or volumes, and ultraviolet and fluorescence spectra. Mass spectrometry will be used
to provide final evidence of their identity. The quantity of the identified PAH will
be estimated from gas chromatographic peaks or u.v. absorption peaks.

Assistance is requested for the running of the International Conference
on Heavy Metals in the Environment to be held in Toronto, Canada from
October 27-31, 1975. The conference is designed to be a high quality
scientific meeting involving academic, government, and industry
scientists working in the many areas of heavy metal concern. The
four subject areas are 1) analytical techniques and standard setting,
2) pathways and cycling of heavy metals in natural and man-made eco-
systems, 3) human health, including toxicicy, sub-lethal eTIecLs,
epidemiology, and 4) regulatory problems. A joint USA-Canadian committed
is organizing the conference. Approximately 55 eminent scientists have
been invited to present papers or to take part in panel discussions.
In addition, 200 abstracts have been received to date for contributed
papers. An attendance of 1000 is expected. The objective is to create
ah atmosphere for interdisciplinary exchange and a forum for up to date
presentation and discussion of the state of the art. Through this,
it is hoped that more rational strategies can be developed for control
of heavy metal problems, especially in the area of standard setting.
It is also hoped to focus on important present problems,probable future
concerns and palliative approaches. The international flavour of the
conference should ensure it usefulness - present indications are for
scientists from more than 30 nations to attend. WHO is to assist in
further publicity in Latin America. A symposium volume will be
produced by spring 1976.

The proposed work will continue to be carried out in collaboration with the
Robert S. Kerr Environmental. Research Laboratory, Ada, Oklahoma, and the Southeastern
Regional Laboratory, Environmental Protection Agency, Athens, Georgia, in an effort to
determine the nature and composition of petroleum derived organics in refinery
wastewater and their modification by a treatment system prior to discharge into the
environment. The Mass Spectrometry Unit, Space Sciences Laboratory, University of
California, Berkeley, will work closely with Southeastern Regional Laboratory in
devising a i:clean,n effective separation scheme for compound classes by high resolu-
tion mass spectrometrie analysis of steps in the separation scheme. This laboratory
will subsequently carry out high resolution mass spectrometry and 13C nuclear magnetic
resonance analysis of the fractions provided by SERL. Gas chromatograph-high
resolution mass spectrometry will also be used in these studies. Capillary gas
chromatography-low resolution mass spectrometry studies will be correlated with
results from high resolution mass spectrometry. It is expected that the following
information on refinery wastewater will result from this inter!aboratory cooperative
study: 1) determination of what organics are discharged after typical refinery
treatment; 2) determination of where in the refining and treatment processes these
organics originate; 3) a knowledge of what happens chemically and biologically to
organics during different treatments.

The National Farmworker Information Clearinghouse will conduct a
series of pesticide use surveys by administering EPA-designed
questionnaires to farmworker program staff nationwide, and will
simultaneously analyze farmworkers' reports of pesticide abuse made
directly to the Clearinghouse in order to research farmworker-
related pesticide problems and to measure the effectiveness of the
pesticide enforcement program in regulating pesticide use.

The overall objectives of the Arthur Kill-20 project are, assuming
feasibility, to convert the burnables in raw refuse into 850 tons per day
of satisfactory boiler fuel to replace expensive imported fuel oil, and
at the same time, to increase the recycling of non-burnables. This
project could replace about 1400 barrels of oil daily, or about
170 of the needs of Con Edison, the local utility.
The normal City of New York approach consisting of four steps lead-
ing to construction of a facility will be employed. They are: feasibility
study, preliminary plan, final design and construction. The City has
entered into a contract with Con Edison and two consulting engineers for
the first two steps in this process. The chief output of Phase II will
be a set of preliminary drawings, outline specifications and cost estimates
based on the recommended arrangement (elected at the conclusion of Phase I)
of the handling facilities. This includes the processing of raw refuse
from dockside at Staten Island, shnedding, separating and processing the
light and heavy fcaction for sale or further processing. Other items to
be investigated in the phase include ownership, financing and working
arrangements between the City and Con Edison.
Currently, work is proceeding on Phase I, which is the Feasibility
Study. The consultants are investigating among other items, unloading
and processing locations and layouts, transporatation of the refuse fuel,
modifications to the boiler, initial capital cost estimates and en-
vironmental assessments.

The objective of this project continuation is to develop
the technologies in the utilization of solid waste as a fuel in
combination with coal so as to provide guidance for energy re-
covery from solid waste in such a manner as to reduce the environ-
mental impact of solid waste disposal and the emissions from
coal-fired power plants.
The approach is to evaluate gaseous and particulate emissions,
plus corrosiveness of the combustion products as a function of
solid waste to coal ratio, and as a function of sulfur content
of the coal. Also, refuse processing variables and methods of
feeding refuse into the furnace will be evaluated. This various
experimental paramenters will be explored in an operating power
station through the cooperation of the City of Columbus, Ohio.
During the first year, research methods were explored for
feeding semi- and fully processed solid waste into the Columbus,
Ohio, municipal light plant boiler furnaces using commercially
available agriculture-type conveyors and blowers. Boiler tube
corrosion data obtained when 15 and 35 percent refuse (Btu basis)
was added to 3 percent sulfur coal, show no increase in corrosion
rates at the 15 percent refuse level. Also, stack emission studies
indicate a significant reduction in sulfur oxide emission
when refuse is burned with high sulfur coal. Furthermore,
examination of the ash revealed no unburned solid waste. It
is planned to expand the program to longer term operations to
permit confirmation of the above results and to determine the
relative merits of higher refuse to coal ratios in terms of
corrosiveness of combustion products, emission characteristics arid
combustion behavior. It is planned to replace the temporary
refuse handling system with more rugged equipment for long-term
operations.

We propose to interface laboratory submodels describing pesticide
volatility and degradation to field pesticide attenuation data. The
submodels and data will be supplied by SERL and the work will serve
as an input to the pesticide and Nutrient Runoff Models currently being
developed by SERL.
The digital computer program (compiler) MLAB, developed by Gary
Knotts at NIH, shall be used as an integral tool for testing models.
Each model will be tested against field data in order to establish the
feasibility of employing in the model the parameters calibrated with
laboratory data.
In the initial model, it is assumed that microbial degradation obeys
a hyperbolic rate equation and that attenuation processes other than
microbial are independent and additive. Moisture, rainfall and tempera-
ture dependences are incorporated.

The investigation of cyanide removal from refinery wastewater
utilizing cupric chloride and powdered activated carbon is a two
phase program. Phase I consists of laboratory tests using a
synthetic cyanide waste to determine the basic chemistry of cyanide
destruction. Operating parameters, such as concentration of
carbon and cupric chloride, dissolved oxygen levels, and pH level,
will be determined.
jfnase II will involve the use or actual reririery wasi.ewai.eji
streams that contain cyanide. The effect of the other pollutants
present on the cyanide destruction will be investigated to
determine the overall feasibility of*this treatment technique.

Objectives are to draft and assist in passage of appropriate en-
abling legislation, establish an operating agency, formalize fuel/energy
and material agreements, secure waste supply agreements, prepare pre-
liminary engineering, prepare an environmental assessment, issue and
evaluate a Request for Proposals, and market revenue bonds. The approach
is to finalize essential elements leading to implementation of a system
to recover energy and recyclable materials from solid waste. The Project
is expected to begin in August 1975 and conclude in July 1976.

Low, moderate, and high loading rates of sludge and of refuse,
each separately, and both together, will be incorporated into the topsoil
of 36 separate plots, of 0.13 acre each, during summer 1975. Crops will
be seeded into those plots. Crops used will be a single variety of grass
and a single variety of legume known to be favored by local farmers;
these will be planted in three modes: each separately and both together
(interplanted).
The trial will assess the effects of various loading rates of
sludge and of refuse on the environment and on the crop, when these are
incorporated into agricultural topsoil. These effects will be evaluated
by laboratory analyses of samples of crops, soil, and water taken from
each of the plots. The analyses will investigate crop yield and quality,
soil water-holding capacity, concentration of any toxic metals that may
be detected, and search for bacterial and viral pathogen persistance.
