FOREWORD
In 1984, Buzzards Bay was one of four estuaries in the country
chosen to be part of the National Estuary Program. The Buzzards
Bay Project was initiated in 1985 to protect water quality and
the health of living resources in the bay by identifying resource
management problems, investigating the causes of these problems,
and recommending actions that will protect valuable resources
from further environmental degradation. This multi-year project,
jointly managed by United States Environmental Protection Agency
and the Massachusetts Executive Office of Environmental Affairs,
utilizes the efforts of local, state, and federal agencies, the
academic community and local interest groups in developing a
Master Plan that will ensure an acceptable and sustainable level
of environmental quality for Buzzards Bay.
The Buzzards Bay Project is focusing on three priority problems:
closure of shellfish beds, contamination of fish and shellfish by
toxic metals and organic compounds, and high nutrient input and
the potential pollutant effects. By early 1990, the Buzzards Bay
Project will develop a Comprehensive Conservation and Management
Plan to address the Project's overall objectives: to develop
recommendations for regional water quality management that are
based on sound information, to define the regulatory and
management structure necessary to implement the recommendations,
and to educate and involve the public in formulating and
implementing these recommendations.
The Buzzards Bay Project has funded a variety of tasks that are
intended to improve our understanding of the input, fate and
effects of contaminants in coastal waters. The Project will
identify and evaluate historic information as well as generate
new data to fill information gaps. The results of these Project
tasks are published in this Technical Series on Buzzards Bay.

INTRODUCTION
During the summer and fall of 1986, members of the Biology Section of the
Massachusetts Division of Water Pollution Control - Technical Services
Branch (TSB) with the assistance of personnel from the Bacteriology
Laboratory at the Lawrence Experiment Station (LES) conducted a microbial
indicator study at Buzzards Bay. The work was funded, in part, by a grant
awarded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) for the
Buzzards Bay Project. The sites selected for study were areas impacted by
non-point sources of fecal contamination which have resulted in closure of
shellfish beds for harvesting or which will be closed in the future by the
S.E. Regional Office - Shellfish Division of DEQE if the sources of bac-
terial contamination cannot be identified and corrected.
Sampling sites were in the towns of Wareham and Westport. In Wareham,
sampling was conducted in the Agawam, Wareham and East Rivers, as well as
at Muddy Cove and Sunset Cove. In Westport, sampling was conducted in the
East Branch of the Westport River.
Since passage of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (PL92-500)
there has been a major national effort to eliminate point sources of pollu-
tion to our water bodies. The same effort has not yet been made to control
non-point sources of pollution. Yet, even with the construction of
hundreds of municipal sewage treatment plants, areas are still closed for
shellfishing and recreational purposes. The present study is an attempt to
gather information on the relative impacts on water quality caused by non-
point sources of pollution in fresh water and estuarine areas.
Several indicator organisms of fecal pollution were included in this study.
Those sampled were:
mFC - Fecal coliform test and membrane filter procedure
mCP - Clostridium perfringens test and membrane filter procedure
mE - Enterococci test and membrane filter procedure
mKF - Streptococci test and membrane filter procedure
mTECH - Escherichia coli test and membrane filter procedure
A-l - Fecal coliform test and Most Probable Number procedure
This was done to establish a data base for indicators that are gaining in
importance and to examine, when possible, the magnitude of the bacterial
counts and the differences in the bacterial assemblages associated with
each non-point source of pollution considered.
The non-point sources which were sampled for possible fecal contamination
were:
1) Housing areas in compliance with Massachusetts Title V;
2) Housing areas not in compliance with Title V;
1
-------
3) Salt marsh areas;
4) A marina with a pump out facility for septage;
5) A marina without pump out facilities for septage; and
6) Agricultural land.
The initial proposal also included storm drains and water fowl populations but
time constraints prevented the satisfactory sampling of either of these
potential sources of contamination.
Historically, in the United States, either total coliform bacteria or fecal
coliform bacteria (Most Probable Number) tests have been used to classify
shellfish and recreational areas. But, in the past few years, the U.S. EPA
has funded or conducted several studies to determine how various indicator
organisms and their testing procedures function under different environmen-
tal conditions. In 1986, the U.S. EPA issued Ambient Water Quality
Criteria for Bacteria (1986) which recommends the use of two'indicator
organisms: Escherichia coli and enterococci bacteria for use as the bac-
terial criteria for contact recreational waters. The U.S. EPA found that
these two organisms or groups of organisms were the most highly correlated
with highly creditable gastrointestinal illness in swimmers in fresh and
marine waters, respectively. Much still remains to be learned about these
indicators and their testing procedures. Thus, while the information
obtained from the field data on non-point sources was a major part of this
study, a second area of inquiry was oriented towards the laboratory work.
Some of the questions examined by the Bacteriology Laboratory at the LES
were:
1. What are the recoveries for the experimental tests (i.e., mE,
mTECH, mCP) compared to those of the more familiar mKF, mFC, and
A-l tests?
2. What is colony formation like?
3. How do the false positive or false negative rates compare?
A third major aspect of this study was to use source differentiation of the
fecal streptococci bacteria (U.S. EPA, 1978) as a way of determining the
source of elevated bacterial counts. The kinds of sources which can be
distinguished by this method are: insects, birds, warm-blooded animals, and
vegetation. The identification of the type of source will aid in the
establishment of mitigative measures to control non-point sources of fecal
contamination.
-------
SAMPLING DESIGN
Samples were typically collected on Mondays, beginning on June 17, 1986 and
ending on October 8, 1986. In most cases, samples were collected on a
falling tide. An effort was made to sample during the worst-case con-
ditions for each particular non-point source. The non-point sources cho-
sen for examination were:
1) A marina with a pump-out facility for septage;
2) A marina without a pump-out facility for septage;
3) Houses in compliance with Title V;
4) Houses not in compliance with Title V;
5) Salt marsh areas;
6) Agricultural areas;
7) Bird populations on the water; and
8) Storm drains/parking lot runoff (Table 1).
The marinas were to be sampled on busy, hot weekend mornings when boating
use was heavy. However, the summer of 1986 was very wet with-13 weekends
exhibiting some precipitation (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administra-
tion, 1986) (Tables 2 & 3). Several sampling attempts had to be cancelled.
The marinas were finally sampled with some boaters present, although on
August 3 rain was threatening and on August 10, the second time that the
marinas were sampled, rain was forecast. The marinas chosen for study
were: Warr's Marina on the Wareham River, which has a septage pump-out faci-
lity for boats, and the Point Independence Yacht Club and the Onset Bay
Marina, both of which are on Onset Bay, Wareham. Neither of these has pump-
out facilities.
Title V is a state regulation which includes set-back requirements for
'cesspools and septic tank leaching fields from surface waters. Currently,
50 feet is required. In order to examine if this distance is adequate for
the removal of bacteria in areas with sandy soils such as Buzzards Bay, two
types of housing areas were chosen for study. These areas are located on
the East Branch of the Westport River. The west side of the East Branch of
the Westport River below Hix Bridge has an area of houses which are
apparently in compliance with Title V. Another area on the east side has a
section with homes that are apparently not in compliance with Title V.
These distinctions were made by observation and not by measuring the
actual distances between the leaching fields and the waters' edge. Sampling
was done on the ebb part of a spring tide which was believed to represent the
worst-case conditions.
Locations with agricultural impacts were chosen for study along the East
Branch of the Westport River above Hix Bridge. Agricultural inputs were

chiefly from grazing cattle, but some corn fields were also present in the
study areas. Samples were collected along the shore and in drainage chan-
nels emanating from cow pastures. There are 32 active dairy and beef
cattle farms along the East Branch of the Westport River, which have a
total cow population of 3,900 (Westport River Watershed Committee, 1983).
Other non-point sources of fecal contamination were studied in Wareham in
the Agawam, Wareham and East River basins and in Onset, Sunset and Muddy
coves. Sampling locations were chosen to examine fecal contributions from
the Wareham Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW), salt marsh areas, marinas,
bird populations, and storm drains. However, during the sampling period
migrating birds did not flock in the coves and marshes, so they were not
sampled. Because no suitable rain storms occurred during the sampling
weeks, storm drains were not sampled either.
In the Agawam River, sampling was conducted above and below the Wareham
POTW. Bacterial sampling included analysis of Clostridium perfringens, as
well as fecal coliform, enterococci and fecal streptococci bacteria.
Triplicate samples were collected at each location in the river. The
effluent from the Wareham POTW passes through sand filters before it is
discharged into the Agawam River. There are four separate discharge pipes
at the Wareham POTW. If the Clostridium counts had been elevated as well
as the other bacterial parameters, then an effort would have been made to
use the Clostridium perfringens as a tracer of the sewage treatment plant
discharge. The bacterial counts, however, remained about the same at all
sampling stations in the Agawam River chosen for study on that day. In
addition, the Clostridium perfringens counts were low.
In the first few weeks of the study, samples were collected at 0', 50' and
100' intervals offshore. This sampling regime was abandoned when results
showed no significant differences between these intervals. It had been
hoped that a sample gradient would have been observed. Since a density
gradient was never observed the sampling regime was altered so that more
shoreline areas could be sampled.
In addition to the shoreline sampling for several indicator organisms,
samples were also collected for differentiation of the fecal streptococci
bacteria into their probable sources (U.S. EPA, 1978). Those included in
the differentiation were: insects, warm-blooded animals, birds, and vegeta-
tive sources. This method was chosen because of its potential for use in
managing areas impacted by non-point sources of pollution.
The sampling schedule for the Agawam and Wareham River basins was designed
so that upper basin areas were sampled first for their bacterial assemblage
and then each following week another non-point source further downstream
was chosen for examination. Finally, samples were collected for source
differentiation of the fecal streptococci bacteria in an area of the Wareham
River offshore and below the Warr's Marina.
Source differentiation was also conducted at the East Branch of the
Westport River upstream of the shellfish closure line which presently is
located just below Great Island. Source differentiation was also
accomplished at Muddy Cove in Wareham. A similar effort was made to do the
same at Sunset Cove, Wareham, but on two separate occasions fecal strep-
tococci colonies were not isolated from samples obtained from this area.
-------
FIELD METHODS AND MATERIALS
Samples were collected from a Boston Whaler. Bacterial samples were
collected in sterile glass containers held below the surface of the water
(American Public Health Assoc., 1985). Samples were also collected for
chlorides, specific conductivity, hardness,'and suspended solids in a half-
liter glass bottles. This bottle was previously rinsed twice with sample
water and then filled to the shoulder of the bottle. If the water depth
was more than four feet, a Kemmerer vertical water sampler was used to
collect the sample. For sample depths less than four feet a surface grab
sample was typically collected. Nutrient samples were also collected in
half-liter bottles which were rinsed with sample water twice. Samples were
analyzed for total phosphorus, Kjeldahl-nitrogen and ammonia-nitrogen. The
nutrient samples were fixed in the field with 2 mis of concentrated
sulfuric acid. A temperature compensated Orion meter was used for pH and
temperature measurements in the field. When available, a Y.S.I model 33
salinity meter was used for specific conductivity and salinity.
All samples were placed in coolers containing ice and brought to the Lawrence
Experiment Station for analysis. All samples were brought to LES within
the six-hour holding period for the bacterial samples.
-------
LABORATORY MATERIALS AND METHODS
Membrane Filtration
Depending upon the source of water, different volumes of water samples were
passed through presterilized membrane filters (HA type; Millipore, 0.45 urn
pore size). If the sample volume was insufficient to provide an even
distribution of bacteria on the filters then phosphate buffered MgCl2
solution was first added to the funnels and the sample was added in turn to
ensure accurate colony counts. Filter holders and funnels were sterilized
for two minutes in an ultraviolet sterilizing apparatus.
Recovery Media
The following Difco media were prepared and used according to the manufac-
turer's instruction and those included in Standard Methods for the
Examination of Water and Wastewater (1985): KF, mFC, mTECH, A-l. The mE
media was prepared and used according to the method of M.A. Levin, et al.
(Levin, 1975) as modified by A.P. Dufour (Dufour, 1980). The mCP media was
prepared and used according to the method of Bisson and Cabelli (Bisson,
1979). A-l (Difco) was prepared and used according to the manufacturer's
instructions and the 12 tube MPN chart developed by James H. Redman (U.S.
Food and Drug Administration, 1974). The mTECH was prepared and used
according to the manufacturer's instructions and Dufour et al. 1981.
The A-l was used as an MPN test. The KF, mCP, mE, mFC, and mTECH were used
in membrane filter procedures.
Incubation Periods
Inoculated A-l tubes were incubated for a two-hour resuscitation period at
35°C (Lab Line-Environette) and then transferred to a 44.5°C water bath
incubator (Blue M or GCA/precision scientific) for 24 hours. The KF plates
were incubated for 48 hours at 35°C (Lab-Line Environette). The mCP plates
were incubated in a BBL Gas Pack Anaerobic jar for 24 hours at 45°C
(Forma-HydroJac incubator). The mE plates were incubated at 41°C for 48
hours (Blue M). The mFC plates were sealed in water-tight plastic bags
(Whirlpac) and incubated in a 44.5°C water bath incubator (Blue M or GCA
precision scientific) for 24 hours. The mTECH plates were incubated for a
two-hour resuscitation period at 35°C (Lab-Line Environette) and then sealed
in water-tight plastic bags (Whirlpac) and transferred to a 44.5°C water
bath incubator for 24 hours.
Source Differentiaton of Fecal Streptococci
If a sampling area was so designated, a representative amount of charac-
teristic colonies growing on KF media were picked and streaked onto BHI
agar slants (Difco) for source differentiation. Colonies were differen-
tiated according to their sources, i.e. warm-blooded animal, bird, insect,
and vegetation. The methods used for differentiation were according to
Microbial Methods for Monitoring the Environment (1978) and included the
11
-------
following testa: growth at 45°C, growth at 10*C, catalase production, starch
hydrolyses, lactose fermentation, growth in 6.5Z NaCl BHI broth, growth in
pH 9.6 BHI broth, reduction of 0.1Z methylene blue in milk and peptoniza-
tion of litmus milk.
Quality Control
For purposes of quality control duplicate samples were collected and ana-
lyzed on a predetermined schedule. Typically every other week duplicates
were analyzed for all tests except the A-l MPN test.
Chemical and Physical Parameters
Samples for chemical and physical analysis were brought to the Lawrence
Experiment Station (LES). Table 4 is a list of analytical methods used at
LES.
