ABSTRACT

    In 2000-01, sediments, benthic macroinvertebrates (BMI), and aquatic macrophytes (AM)
were sampled with a Petite Ponar Dredge downstream of a subset of existing aquaculture and
agriculture discharges to the middle Snake River from Twin Falls, Idaho (RK 984.6) to Upper
Salmon Falls Dam (RK 935.5). Control samples were collected upstream of the aquaculture and
agriculture discharges for comparison. Analyses were limited to 2001 samples due to the
improved sampling design.

     Results indicate that the dominant particle sampled upstream and downstream of all
sampled discharges (3 aquaculture and 3 agriculture) in 2001 was sand (43-95 %), followed by
silt (4-48 %) and clay (0.5-5.0 %), respectively. In 2001, sand content was generally greater in
agriculture deposition zones than aquaculture deposition  zones. Overall, nutrient  levels from
sediment sampled in 2001 (P and N) were greater downstream of aquaculture discharges than
below agriculture discharges. Sediment P averaged 758.7 ug-g"1  upstream of agriculture
discharges and 688.1  ug-g"1 downstream of agriculture discharges.  Sediment P averaged 734.9
ug-g"1 upstream of aquaculture discharges and!473.9 ug-g"1 downstream of aquaculture
discharges in 2001. Sediment P was significantly greater (p < 0.05) in deposition zone sediments
than control zone sediments throughout the five sampling months for all three aquaculture study
sites.  Sediment organic matter content averaged 1.11 %  upstream of agriculture discharges and
0.91 % downstream of agriculture discharges.  Sediment  organic matter content averaged 1.57 %
upstream of aquaculture discharges and 1.78 % downstream of aquaculture discharges.
Sediment lead, chromium, cadmium, and nickel concentrations exceeded benthic community
threshold effects  levels (per Buchman 1999) at some point during the 2001 study, while benthic
community probable effects levels (per Buchman 1999) were exceeded by cadmium and nickel.

     Dominant BMI sampled from the middle Snake River in 2001 were pollution-tolerant taxa,
including Potamopyrgus antipodarum (non-native), Oligochaeta, Chironomidae, and Hyalella
azteca (Amphipoda).  BMI density, biomass, and richness were generally greater downstream of
aquaculture discharges than below agriculture discharges in 2001. The density of Potamopyrgus
antipodarum was greater downstream of aquaculture discharges than below agriculture
discharges.

     Seven vascular  AM taxa were sampled from five different  families throughout the five-
month sampling period in the middle Snake River in 2001. AM were dominated by
Potamogeton crispus  (non-native), Ceratophyllum demersum (native), and Elodea Canadensis
(native), all taxa considered tolerant of organic pollution  and eutrophic conditions. AM densities
found during the  2001 middle Snake River sampling effort were greater than the 200 g-m"2
nuisance  level (nuisance level per EPA 2002) downstream of all three aquaculture study sites and
one agriculture study  site. AM biomass averaged 5.9 g-m"2 upstream of agriculture discharges
and 6.2 g-m"2 downstream of agriculture discharges. AM biomass averaged 33.5 g-m"2 upstream
of aquaculture discharges and 73.1 g-m"2 downstream of  aquaculture discharges.

INTRODUCTION
Background
     The addition of wastewaters containing unnatural amounts of nutrients (for Middle Snake
region: >42.5 ug-1"1 total phosphorus and >0.3 mg-1"1 nitrate+nitrite), sediment, and organic
matter from various effluents and discharges has been impacting riverbed environments for many
years. These waste loadings often modify the natural species diversity, density, and biomass of
plants and animals in rivers (Thiebaut and Muller 1998, Parkhill and Gulliver 2002). Hence,
plants and animals have been increasingly used as indicators of water quality in running waters.
In particular, benthic macroinvertebrates (BNfl) (Linke et al. 1999, Timm et al. 2001, Rueda et
al. 2002) and aquatic macrophytes (AM) (Grasmuck et al. 1995, Tremp and Kohler 1995) have
been useful as bioindicators of overall aquatic ecosystem health. These organisms are useful
because they are relatively sedentary in nature (and thereby exposed to environmental conditions
over a period of time), are abundant and diverse in aquatic systems, are relatively easy and
economical to sample, and cover a wide range of pollution tolerances (Gopal and Chamanlal
1991, Linke et al.  1999, Rueda et al. 2002).
     The agriculture and aquaculture industries have been known to play a major role in the
contribution of nutrients and sediments to lotic environments (Brown et al. 1974, Omernik et al.
1981, Doupe et al. 1999, Varadi 2001, Owens and Walling 2002).  Waste discharges from
agriculture may include both irrigation return flows and overland flows from non-irrigated
agriculture, both which contribute elevated sediment and associated nutrients from runoff
(Robison et al. 2002). Aquaculture wastewater typically  includes paniculate organic material
from unconsumed feed and fecal matter (Pawar et al. 2001)  as well as  soluble organics (IDEQ
1995). Organic matter is considered the primary pollutant causing benthic enrichment below
experimental marine aquaculture net cages (Tlusty et al.  2000) and aquaculture net cages in
Japan (Pawar et al. 2001).  Organic matter is also a primary pollutant downstream of inland
aquaculture operations in Australia (Doupe et al. 1999) and  Europe (Varadi 2001). Large inputs
of particulate organic matter from aquaculture sites can settle to the sediments and create
enriched conditions from two to 20 times background values that will impact the chemistry and
ecology of the benthos (Tlusty et al. 2000).  With accrual, these sediments may become reducing
sediments and create an anaerobic environment that will enhance mobilization of nutrients and

-------
contaminants from the sediments, such as hydrogen sulfide, ammonium, methane, carbon
dioxide, and metals.
      The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ) has listed the middle Snake River
in south-central Idaho as water quality-limited under the Clean Water Act since 1990 (Clark and
Ott 1996, Falter and Burris 1996).  Specific stream segments not meeting water quality standards
are listed under Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. These listings have been the result of
decades of point and non-point discharges. Studies in the 1990's (Brockway and Robison 1992,
Falter and Carlson 1994, Falter et al. 1995, Falter and Burris 1996) have demonstrated the extent
of the water quality problem in the middle Snake River.  Sampling 55 sites along the middle
Snake River (1990-1991), Brockway and Robison (1992) concluded that a 151-km stretch of
river from Milner Dam (River Kilometer (RK) 1029.8) to King Hill (RK 878.5) accumulated and
transported up to 27,216 kg-day"1 of nitrate+nitrite, 1,814 kg-day"1 of phosphate, and 317,515
kg-day"1 of suspended solids. Further study of the middle Snake River from Twin Falls (RK
989.7) downstream to Upper Salmon Falls Dam (RK 935) in 1992 (Falter and Carlson 1994),
1993  (Falter et al. 1995), and 1994 (Falter and Burris 1996) concluded that biomass levels for the
plant  community reached densities exceeding 3,000 g-m"2, while chlorophyll a concentrations,
dissolved nutrient concentrations, and sediment nutrient levels were all indicative of a eutrophic
system.

Purpose and Objectives
      The goal of this study was to characterize the sediment and associated aquatic communities
(BMI and AM) upstream and downstream of waste loadings from agriculture and aquaculture
operations to the middle Snake River in south-central Idaho. Specific objectives were to:
      (1) Spatially define sediment deposition zones directly downstream of three agriculture
      drains and three aquaculture discharges to the middle Snake River in 2000;
      (2) Compare sediment composition upstream (control zone) and downstream (deposition
      zone) of three agriculture drains and three aquaculture discharges to the middle Snake
      River in 2000 and 2001;
      (3) Compare BMI density, biomass, and taxa richness upstream (control zone) and
      downstream (deposition zone) of three agriculture drains and three aquaculture discharges
      to the middle Snake River in 2001; and

-------
     (4) Compare AM biomass and species composition upstream (control zone) and
     downstream (deposition zone) of three agriculture drains and three aquaculture discharges
     to the middle Snake River in 2001.

Study Area
     The middle Snake River, located in south-central Idaho, lies in the northwestern edge of the
Great Basin and occupies part of the former range of Pliocene Lake Idaho (Cazier and Myers
1996).  The river carves a canyon through the basalt layers of south-central Idaho, in the center
of the resulting Snake River Plain. The Snake River Plain extends 80 to 200 km north to south,
from the southern edge of the central Idaho mountains to the Great Basin uplift in southern
Idaho, and 645 km east to west, from the Owyhee mountains to the western edge of the Rocky
Mountains (USFWS 1995). The middle Snake River collects the cold, clear waters of the Snake
River Plain Aquifer that flow as springs from the north basalt canyon walls, having originated
from the Lost River and Birch Creek sinks into the basalt layers some 195 miles to the northeast.
These coldwater springs, contributing approximate year-round flows of 142 to 170 m3-s"' to the
river (Robison et al. 2002), provide optimal temperatures (14-17 °C) for culturing rainbow trout
(Oncorhvnchus mykiss) and other coldwater fish species. As a result, there are approximately
144 permitted fish rearing facilities adjacent to the middle Snake River that are responsible for
producing approximately 70% of the nation's cultured rainbow trout (IDEQ 1995).
     The middle Snake River is highly regulated by dams and diversions, primarily for
irrigation and hydroelectric power generation (Clark and Ott 1996). During the irrigation season
(April-October) much of the river is diverted out-of-channel to supply canals at Milner Dam (RK
1029.8) for irrigating approximately 145,700 hectares of land by sprinkler and traditional gravity
methods (Robison et al. 2002). Most of the summer flow of the middle  Snake River downstream
of Milner Dam is as a result of irrigation return flows, agriculturally impacted tributaries, and
spring flows.
     Numerous point and non-point source waste loadings occur throughout the middle Snake
River from irrigation  returns, aquaculture effluents, confined animal feeding operations, and
wastewater treatment plant returns (Brockway and Robison 1992, Falter and Burris 1996, EPA
2002).  Waste loadings to the middle Snake River peak in a short stretch from Twin Falls, Idaho

-------
(RK 984.6) to Upper Salmon Falls Dam (RK 935.5). This present study focuses on the middle
Snake River between Twin Falls, Idaho and Upper Salmon Falls Dam (Figure 1).

METHODS
Study Sites
      This study was conducted on a subset of existing aquaculture and agriculture discharges to
the middle Snake River, selected both for their relatively large volumes and discharge to rapids-
free river reaches likely to be deposition zones. A total of three irrigation return flows (Ag
Drains) and three aquaculture facility discharges were sampled for sediment in 2000 and
sediment, BMI, and AM in 2001 (Figure 1). The three agriculture drains selected for study all
flow from the south, or left bank of the Snake River, and were located at RK 970.9 (Pigeon Cove
LQ & LS Drain), 969.0 (Southside LS2/39A Drain), and 967.1 (Southside 39 Drain) (Brockway
and Robison 1992, EPA 2002). In the remainder of this document, these Ag Drains will be
referred to as ADS, AD2 and ADI, respectively. The three aquaculture discharges selected for
study were those from Crystal Springs Hatchery (RK 966.4), Rim View Hatchery (RK 963.5),
and Box Canyon Hatchery (RK 946.8), which use spring waters from Crystal Springs, Niagara
Springs, and Box Canyon Springs, respectively.

Sample Collection
    The deposition zone, within the first 150 meters downstream of each discharge, was defined
by using a 1.83-meter calibrated metal rod. The rod was pushed down vertically through the
sediments to determine the depth and substrate composition (i.e., fine sediments, sand, gravel, or
cobble) of the river bottom by feel and sound.  PVC attachments were connected to the rod for
probing in water depths up to 5.5 meters. However, because the rod itself was only 1.83 meters
in length, we were limited to recording a maximum sediment depth of 1.83 meters, even if the
actual sediment depth exceeded this maximum. Rod instability was already an issue with the
1.83-meter rod length; longer rod lengths would have resulted in an increased occurrence of rod
bending. The rod was used from an anchored boat at 42 different point locations per site using a
systematic grid design (Figure 2). The design allowed probing of the sediments from three
different distances from the shoreline (5, 10, and 15 meters) and from  14 different distances from
the discharge (10-150 meters). We conducted this sediment probing technique one time for each
site during June, 2000.
      In 2000, we collected sediment samples monthly from August to October.  In each month,
16 samples were collected at each of the six study sites. At each site, we collected eight control

-------
samples upstream of the discharge (control zone) for comparison with eight samples collected
downstream of the discharge (deposition zone).  Samples were collected at systematic random
distances from the discharge along a virtual line parallel to the shore (Figure 3).
      Due to replication discrepancies, the sample design was changed for 2001 (Figure 4).  In
2001, sediment, BMI, and AM samples were collected monthly from June to October, where 12
samples were collected monthly at each of the six study sites. The irrigation return flows are
typically active from June to October, which led us to use these months as the bounds of our
sampling period. At each site, a cluster of four replicate samples were collected at least 200
meters upstream of each discharge (control zone) for comparison with eight samples collected
downstream of the discharge (deposition zone).  We separated these eight deposition zone
samples into two clusters of four replicates,  with the first cluster of four randomly sampled
between 100 and 200 meters downstream from the discharge and the second cluster randomly
sampled between 1 and 100 meters downstream from the discharge.  Due to differences in
sampling strategy for each year, the sampled sediment could not be compared between years and
statistical analysis of 2000 data could not be completed.
    All sediment samples were collected with a Petite Ponar Dredge (225 cm2). In 2000, all
BMI and AM were removed from the sediment and returned to the river. In 2001, sediment,
BMI, and AM were each separated, preserved, and transported for laboratory analysis. All
sample collection techniques followed standard operating procedures (SOP's) detailed in
Appendix A.
    Immediately following collection of each sample, BMI were sorted in the field to quantify
and return any listed species to the river.  Dustin Hinson was the only qualified individual in the
field to identify listed species. Mr. Hinson was sufficiently trained in the identification of the
five listed species by Scott Lindstrom, a BMI taxonomist from EcoAnalysts in Moscow, Idaho.
Mr. Lindstrom is a qualified expert in the identification of Snake River listed snail species. Due
to the extreme densities of BMI in some samples, some specimens of the endangered snail,
Valvata utahensis, went unnoticed and were not returned to the river in the field. These Valvata
utahensis specimens were identified during  laboratory processing and verified as the endangered
snail by Scott Lindstrom.  All preserved Valvata utahensis identified in the laboratory were sent
to Bill Clark, Assistant Director of the Orma J. Smith Museum of Natural History, at Albertson
College of Idaho, Caldwell, Idaho for permanent housing.

Laboratory Analysis
Sediment
     Sediment samples were transported and processed at the University of Idaho Analytical
Sciences Laboratory in Moscow, Idaho. Physical sediment analysis included particle size
composition of sand, silt, and clay [Bouyoncos Hydrometer Method (Appendix A)]. Settling
tube particle size analysis (i.e. Bouyoncos Hydrometer Method) is described as being superior to
other methods  (Le Roux 1998). Chemical sediment analysis included percent carbon and
nitrogen [LECO® Combustion Analyzer CNS-2000 (Appendix A)], as well as the trace elements
phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, zinc, manganese, copper, iron, sulfur,
lead, chromium, cadmium, barium, nickel, cobalt, beryllium, and molybdenum [EPA 3050
screen (Appendix A)]. Sediment organic matter content (percent by dry weight) was not
measured in 2001 middle Snake River sediments. As a result, organic matter measurements from
2000 middle Snake River sediments were used for inferential analysis.
     Stable isotope analysis was used as an exploratory technique for determining the source of
middle Snake River sediments.  The objective of this analysis was to determine whether
sediment stable isotopes (813C and 815N) could be used to differentiate agriculture or aquaculture
sources of sediment. Stable Isotope sediments were processed and analyzed at the University of
Idaho Stable Isotope Laboratory using an Elemental Analyzer online with a Delta Plus Isotope
Ratio mass spectrometer. The results of this analysis are detailed in Appendix B.
Benthic Macroinvertebrates
     BMI samples were preserved in 70% Ethanol with Rose Bengal Dye until processing.  The
high numbers of BMI in each sample warranted the use of a laboratory subsampling apparatus to
make processing more efficient. The subsampling apparatus was a horizontal, rotating circular
chamber that was equally divided into  ten sub-chambers. Each sample, after being uniformly
mixed in water, was slowly poured from a fixed point into the rotating chamber, thus equally
divided between the ten sub-chambers. Subsamples were randomly chosen and sequentially
processed until a cumulative count of at least 100 individuals was reached (Wrona et al. 1982).
The total number of subsamples it took to reach at least 100 individuals was used as a multiplier
to estimate the total number of BMI in the full sample. This method was used by Hickley (1975)
to achieve a ±20% precision at 95% confidence level. These estimated counts were used to
calculate total BMI density (#-m~2) and the density of selected BMI taxa, including Valvata

-------
utahensis, Potamopyrgus antipodarum, and Chironomidae spp. The standard procedure for BMI
oven dry weight (ODW) (Benke 1996) was used to estimate total biomass (g-m~2) for each grab
sample. BMI were identified to the lowest practical taxonomic level following the manuals An
Introduction to the Aquatic Insects of North America (Merritt and Cummins. 1984), Freshwater
Snails of North America (Burch 1982), and Freshwater Invertebrates of the United States
(Pennak 1978). Taxa richness was determined by counting the total number of different taxa
identified in each grab sample.  BMI were typically identified to the family level, with selected
taxonomic groups only identified to the Phylum or Class level (i.e. Phylum Nematoda, Class
Oligochaeta) due to their difficult distinction.  This potential undercounting of taxa could be a
source of error in the BMI richness metric.
Aquatic Macrophytes
    AM were frozen in plastic bags until processing. Each thawed sample was washed to
remove detritus, sediment, and epiphytic algae before identification (Wagner and Falter 2002).
All vascular submergent AM were identified to species using the manuals The Aquatic Plants
(Prescott 1969) and Flora of the Pacific Northwest (Hitchcock and Cronquist 1973). The
Standard Methods Procedure (10400 D.3) for AM ODW or biomass (g-m~2) was used to estimate
percent species composition by weight for each grab sample (APHA 1992).  All mean AM
biomass values include grab  samples with an AM biomass of zero.  Algae were excluded from
all analyses.

Statistical Analysis
Sediment
    The sediment samples collected in 2000 were later deemed pseudo-replicates so we could
not compare data collected in 2000 with data collected in 2001. Statistical analyses herein were
only applied to sediment data collected in 2001.  Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA)
methods were used to test whether any of the 23 measured sediment variables differed (p < 0.05)
between the five sampling months (June-October) and the six study sites (AD3, AD2, ADI,
Crystal Springs, Rim View, and Box Canyon)  using the general linear model (GLM) procedure
in The SAS System for Windows (version 8.02). The multivariate normal assumption was
checked prior to running the  MANOVA using the principal components procedure in The SAS
System for Windows (version 8.02).

-------
    After checking for significant differences in the data using all variables combined, analysis
of variance (ANOVA) methods were used to test for significant differences (p < 0.05) between
the deposition zone (downstream of discharge) sediments of pooled agriculture  sites and pooled
aquaculture sites for each of the 23 variables and for each of the five sampling months.
However, comparisons of deposition zones for each variable and for each month were only made
if the differences between agriculture and aquaculture control zones (upstream of discharge) for
that same variable and month were determined to be statistically similar (no significant
difference, p > 0.05).
     ANOVA methods were also used to test for significant differences (p < 0.05) between
control (upstream of discharge) and deposition (downstream of discharge) grab  samples for each
of the 23 variables independently. To facilitate comparison between control and deposition
zones, grab samples from both deposition zone clusters were pooled prior to running the
ANOVA tests. The GLM procedure in The SAS System for Windows (version 8.02) was used
for all ANOVA tests with an a priori significance level of a = 0.05. The univariate normal
assumption was checked prior to running the ANOVA tests using the univariate procedure in
The SAS System for Windows (version 8.02).
Benthic Macroinvertebrates
     Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) methods were used to test whether any of
the three measured BMI variables (abundance, biomass, and taxa richness) differed (p < 0.05)
between month or site using the general linear model (GLM) procedure in The SAS System for
Windows (version 8.02). The multivariate normal assumption was checked prior to running the
MANOVA using the principal components procedure in The SAS System for Windows (version
8.02).
     After checking for significant differences in the data using all variables combined, analysis
of variance (ANOVA) methods were used to test for significant differences (p < 0.05) between
the deposition zone (downstream of discharge) BMI populations of pooled agriculture sites and
pooled aquaculture sites for each of the three variables and for each of the five sampling months.
However, comparisons of deposition zones for each variable and for each month were only made
if the agriculture and aquaculture control zones (upstream of discharge) for that same variable
and month were determined to be statistically similar (no significant difference, p > 0.05).

                                                                                    10
    ANOVA methods were also used to test for significant differences (p < 0.2) between control
(upstream of discharge) and deposition (downstream of discharge) grab samples for each of the
three BMI variables independently. To facilitate comparison between control and deposition
zones, grab samples from both deposition zone clusters were pooled prior to running the
ANOVA tests. The GLM procedure in The SAS System for Windows (version 8.02) was used
for all ANOVA tests with an a priori significance level of a = 0.05. Post hoc significance levels
were increased to a = 0.2 for the control and deposition zone grab sample comparisons for all
three variables. This increased significance level was selected because of the inherently variable
nature of biological populations. The univariate normal assumption was checked prior to
running the ANOVA tests using the univariate procedure in The SAS System for Windows
(version 8.02).
Aquatic Macrophytes
     Analysis of variance (ANOVA) methods were used to test whether overall AM biomass
differed (p < 0.05) between month or site using the general linear model (GLM) procedure in
The SAS System for Windows (version 8.02). ANOVA methods were also used to test for
significant differences (p < 0.05) between deposition zone (downstream of discharge) AM
biomass of pooled agriculture sites and pooled aquaculture sites for each of the five sampling
months. However, industry comparisons of deposition zone AM biomass for each month were
only made if AM biomass in agriculture and aquaculture control zones (upstream of discharge)
for that same month were determined to be statistically similar (no significant difference, p >
0.05).
     ANOVA methods were also used to test for significant differences between control
(upstream of discharge) and deposition (downstream of discharge) grab samples according to
AM biomass. To facilitate comparison between control and deposition zones, grab samples from
both deposition zone clusters were pooled prior to running the ANOVA tests.  The GLM
procedure in The SAS System for Windows (version 8.02) was used for the ANOVA tests with
an a priori significance level of a = 0.5. Post hoc significance levels were increased to a = 0.2
for the control and deposition zone AM biomass comparison. As with BMI, this increased
significance level was selected because of the inherently variable nature of biological
populations. The univariate normal assumption was checked prior to running the ANOVA tests
using the univariate procedure in The SAS System for Windows (version 8.02).

RESULTS
Sediment Depth
    Substrate probing was conducted in an attempt to define sediment depth downstream of the
six study site discharges and to understand how sediment depth changed with distance
downstream from the discharge.  Sediment depths were not measured upstream of discharges
because the purpose was not to compare results upstream and downstream of the discharge as
with the other measured variables. However, comparisons can be made between agriculture and
aquaculture sediment depths.
      Sediment depth, including clay, silt, sand, and pea gravel substrates (< 5 mm diameter), in
the middle  Snake River ranged from zero meters downstream of ADS (Agriculture Drain 3) to
the maximum measurable depth of 1.83 meters downstream of Box Canyon, Rim View, Crystal
Springs, ADI (Agriculture Drain 1), AD2 (Agriculture Drain 2), and AD3 discharges (Figures 5
and 6). At  agriculture sites, sediment depth did not show any general trends with increasing
distance downstream from the discharge. However, agriculture sediment  probing locations
reached maximum measurable sediment depth (1.83 meters) more frequently than below
aquaculture discharges. Specifically, the maximum measurable depth was reached at 51  of 123
(41 %) agriculture probing locations below agriculture discharges. These maximum depth
sediment probing locations were evenly located along the entire 150 meters  downstream  of the
agriculture  discharge and for all three distances from the shoreline (5, 10,  and 15 meters). The
greatest occurrence of the maximum depth probing locations (i.e., fine sediment), 29 of 51  (57
%), were located downstream of AD2.
      Below aquaculture discharges, sediment depth generally increased as the distance
downstream from the discharge increased. The maximum measurable depth (1.83 meters) was
reached at 16 of 122 (13 %) aquaculture probing locations. The majority of these maximum
depth sediment probing locations were located  between 100 and 150 meters downstream of the
aquaculture discharges and 10 meters from the  shoreline.

Sediment Characterization
    A difference between sediment organic matter downstream of agriculture and aquaculture
industries was apparent in 2000 middle Snake River sediments. Maximum sediment organic
matter (5.0  %) was sampled downstream of the Crystal Springs study site  in October. Minimum

-------
                                                                                      12
sediment organic matter (0.23 %) was sampled downstream of the AD3 study site in September.
Sediment organic matter downstream of aquaculture discharges averaged 1.30,2.20, and 1.85 %
for CS, RV, and BC, respectively. Sediment organic matter downstream of agriculture discharges
averaged 0.75,0.88, and 1.12 % for AD3, AD2, and ADI, respectively. Average organic content
of sediments downstream of aquaculture discharges (1.78 %) was nearly twice that of average
sediment organic content downstream of agriculture discharges (0.91 %). This distinct difference
in organic matter composition is likely caused by the increase in aquatic vegetation downstream
of aquaculture facilities coupled with the sustained organic input from aquaculture discharges.
    Samples from June-October, 2001 were used to assess the mean, standard deviation and
range of physical and chemical sediment characteristics over all study sites (Table 1). Physical
and chemical sediment characteristics showed high variability throughout the reach for all
measured variables. For example, sediment sand content ranged from 33.2-98.6 % throughout
the sampling period, while sediment phosphorus ranged from 340-2,200 ng-g"1.
      We compared the mean physical and chemical makeup of the substrate in the control and
deposition zones between pooled agriculture sites and pooled aquaculture sites for all months
combined (Table 2). Trends begin to appear with this further breakdown of mean sediment
values. For example, mean sediment nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur were greater in
aquaculture deposition zones (N = 0.1%, P = 1,473.93 fxg-g"1, and S = 2,177.0 ng-g"1) than
aquaculture control zones, agriculture control zones, or agriculture deposition zones.  However,
the sediment metrics, Sodium, Manganese, Iron, Barium, and Nickel were greater in agriculture
control zones (Na = 823.67 jag-g'1, Mn = 207.93 j^g-g'1, Fe = 13,808.33 ng-g"1, Ba = 113.7 ng-g'1,
and Ni = 1,819.0 jig-g"1) than agriculture deposition zones, aquaculture control zones, or
aquaculture deposition zones.
Statistical Comparisons
      Statistical tests were performed on sampled middle Snake River sediment for two primary
purposes. First, it was critical to determine whether various measured sediment parameters were
statistically different between agriculture deposition zones and aquaculture deposition zones.
Secondly, we attempted to decipher statistical differences between these sediment parameters in
the control and deposition zones of each individual site. Principal components analysis showed
that sediment data were approximately multivariate normal because each principal component
was approximately univariate normal (Johnson 1998). The principal components analysis also

-------
                                                                                      13
pointed out a few outliers in the data.  It was determined that these outliers couldn't be removed
because the values were reasonable and were consistent between replicates. The MANOVA
tests showed that there was a significant month difference for at least one of the 23 measured
sediment variables (Wilks' Lambda, p<0.0001), indicating that there is a temporal pattern in the
physical and chemical characteristics of the sediment. The MANOVA tests also showed that
there was a significant site difference for at least one of the 23 measured variables (Wilks'
Lambda, p<0.0001), indicating that there is a spatial pattern  in the physical and chemical
characteristics of the sediment. Due to multivariate differences by month and site, ANOVA tests
comparing control and deposition zones were run on each month and site separately. Data used
in all sediment ANOVA tests were not transformed because the univariate procedure showed all
variables were approximately normal.
     Tables 3 through 7 show mean sediment values for each month, site,  and zone
independently as well as indicate whether significant differences occurred between the mean
sediment values. A consistent pattern became evident when analyzing these results. The pattern
indicates that a significantly greater proportion of fine material (silt and clay) in a sediment
sample was typically associated with a significantly greater concentration of trace elements in a
sample. For example, sediment sampled from the AD3  study site in August had significantly
greater proportions of silt and clay in the control zone (silt = 48.0 % and clay = 3.8 %) than the
deposition zone (silt = 8.4 % and clay = 1.7 %)  (Table5). Likewise, significantly greater
concentrations of all 20 trace elements occurred in the control zone sediments of AD3 than the
deposition zone sediments of AD3 in August. This positive  relationship between the proportion
of fine material and the concentration of trace elements remained consistent for all other sites
and months. The high proportion of sand in the AD3  deposition zone sediments in August also
contributed to the low trace element concentrations downstream of the discharge.
       Figures 7-52 not only illustrate the data presented in Tables 3-7 but also provide a
comparison between the aquaculture and agriculture industry deposition zone sediments based
on the  23 measured sediment variables. Significant differences between agriculture and
aquaculture deposition zones are illustrated in Figures 7-52,  as well as significant differences
between the control and deposition zones of each site. Descriptions of these results are detailed
in Appendix C.

Benthic Macroinvertebrates
      Benthic macroinvertebrates (BMI) were collected from the middle Snake River in 2001 to
assess the changes in benthic community structure as a result of agriculture and aquaculture
discharges. BMI abundance, biomass, and taxa richness were measured to quantitatively assess
in-stream differences in benthic community structure.
      The BMI community sampled from the middle Snake River in 2001 consisted of a variety
of taxonomic categories, including insects, crustaceans, turbellarians, oligochaetes, hirudineans,
nematodes, gastropods, and pelecypods. A full list of middle Snake River sampled taxa,
including the sites and zones (control and deposition) from which they were collected are shown
in Table 8.  Gastropods, oligochaetes, and amphipods were the most frequent taxonomic groups
collected, occupying all sites and zones of collection. Four different gastropod taxa,
Potamopyrgus antipodarum, Gyraulus parvus, Physella spp., and Pisidium  spp., occupied all
sites and all zones of collection.  Chironomids were sampled in all sites and zones except for the
Box Canyon control zone.
      BMI were also used to assess the benthic community structure in the control and
deposition zones of pooled agriculture sites and pooled aquaculture sites for all months
combined (Table 9). Results indicate that both BMI abundance (#-m~2) and biomass (g-m~2) were
about ten times greater downstream of aquaculture discharges (32,600 and 34.2, respectively)
than downstream of agriculture discharges (3,111 and 3.3, respectively).  The number of distinct
BMI taxa sampled (richness) was also greater downstream of aquaculture discharges (6.0) than
downstream of agriculture discharges (4.0).
      BMI abundance, biomass, and richness varied within each type of discharge (Table 9). At
agriculture  study sites, an average of 10 % more BMI-m"2 were collected upstream of the
discharge (3,415) than downstream (3,111). However,  average BMI biomass (g-m~2) sampled
from agriculture sites was 10 % greater downstream of the discharge (3.3) than upstream (3.0).
These resulting abundance and biomass averages from agriculture sites indicate that the average
weight of BMI individuals was greater downstream  of the discharges than upstream. The
average number of distinct taxa (richness) sampled upstream of agriculture  discharges (4.6) was
greater than the average number of distinct taxa sampled downstream of agriculture discharges
(4.0).

                                                                                    15
                                                   -2,
    At aquaculture sites, an average of 19 % more BMI-m" were sampled downstream of
discharges (32,610) than upstream (27,383) (Table 9).  Alternately, average biomass (g-m"2) at
aquaculture sites was 13 % greater upstream of discharges (38.6) than downstream (34.2).
Unlike agriculture sites, average abundance and biomass values at aquaculture sites indicate that
the average weight of BMI individuals was greater upstream of the discharges than downstream.
Table 9 also shows that the average number of distinct taxa sampled downstream of aquaculture
sites (6.0) was greater than the average number of distinct taxa sampled upstream of aquaculture
sites (5.5).
    Tables 10-14 show average BMI abundance, biomass, and taxa richness values for each
month, site, and zone independently. Average BMI abundance was approximately 9x greater
downstream of aquaculture discharges than downstream of agriculture discharges in June,
August, and October of 2001 (Figure 53). Average monthly BMI abundance was consistently
high downstream of the RV discharge and upstream of the BC discharge (Figure 54). Average
monthly BMI abundance was greatest downstream of the RV discharge in June, where the total
number of organisms exceeded 231,000 individuals-m"2, 73% of which were P. antipodarum.
Minimum monthly BMI abundance occurred upstream of the AD3 discharge in September,
where the total number of organisms was less than 870 individuals-m'2. Species-specific BMI
abundances are shown in Figures 55-58 and are described in the section below.
     Average BMI biomass was 14x greater downstream of aquaculture  discharges than
agriculture discharges in August and 6x greater in October, 2001 (Figure  59). As with average
monthly BMI abundance, average monthly BMI biomass was consistently high downstream of
the RV discharge and upstream of the BC discharge (Figure 60). The greatest monthly BMI
biomass was sampled upstream of the BC discharge, exceeding 287.0 g-m"2.  The minimum
monthly BMI biomass value of 0.4 g-m"2 was sampled  upstream of the AD2 discharge in
September.
     Average BMI taxa richness was at least 25% greater downstream of aquaculture discharges
than downstream of agriculture discharges for all months sampled (Figure 61). Average monthly
BMI taxa richness was consistently high upstream of the RV discharge during the entire five
month study, and reached a maximum of 10.3 in September (Figure 62).  Consistently low
monthly BMI taxa richness was evident upstream of the BC discharge, with minimum values
falling to 1.7 in August. The generally low monthly taxa richness upstream of the BC discharge

coincides with high densities of the exotic snail, Potamopyrgus antipodarum, and low densities
of all other aquatic organisms.  .
Species Specific Abundance
Valvata utahensis
     Valvata utahensis (Utah Valvata) was the only listed species encountered throughout the
2001 benthic macroinvertebrate sampling effort. During the study, we found a single population
of V. utahensis along the south bank of the river, about 200 meters downstream of Box Canyon
aquaculture facility (RK 946.8). V. utahensis were found in 15 of the 20 dredge samples (75 %)
collected at this location (June-October, 2001). Live V. utahensis from these 15 dredges ranged
in number from 1-13 individuals per dredge, with an average density of 2.67 snails-dredge"1
(118.5 snails-m"2).  They inhabited very fine, black, organically enriched sediments with very
heavy macrophyte communities and associated filamentous algae.
Potamopyrsus antiyodarum
    The exotic Potamopyrgus antipodarum (New Zealand mudsnail) was sampled at all six
study sites during the 2001 benthic macroinvertebrate sampling effort. P. antopodarum were
found in 179 of the 359 total dredge samples (49.9 %) at all  six sites (June-October, 2001). Live
P. antipodarum from the 359 total dredges ranged in number from 0-12,770 individuals, with an
average density of 258 snails-dredge"1 (11,457 snails-m"2). Average P. antipodarum abundance
was greater downstream of aquaculture discharges than agriculture discharges by 4500x in June,
lOOx in August, and 500x in October, 2001 (Figure 55). The greatest P. antipodarum densities
occurred 200 meters upstream of Box Canyon aquaculture facility (RK 946.8, south bank), and
between 100 and 200 meters downstream of Rim View aquaculture facility (RK 964.0, north
bank) (Figure 56).  Densities at  these particular Box Canyon and Rim View locations averaged
66,131 individuals-m"2 and 98,764 individuals-m"2, respectively, over 20 dredge samples at each
site. Overall, maximum P. antipodarum density occurred in a grab sample between 100 and  200
meters downstream of the Rim View aquaculture facility in June, 2001. This sample had 12,770
individuals, equivalent to 567,556 P. antipodarum-m2. Many of the P. antipodarum sampled in
this particular grab were attached to the dense aquatic macrophyte and filamentous algae growth.
The sediments in this area were very fine, black, and organically enriched. The distinct odor of
reducing sediments (F^S) was also evident.

Chironomidae spp.
    Chironomidae spp. were sampled at each of the six study sites during the 2001 benthic
macroinvertebrate sampling effort. Chironomidae spp. were found in 274 of the 359 total dredge
samples (76.3 %) at all six sites (June-October, 2001). Live Chironomidae from the 359 total
dredges ranged in number from 0-160 individuals, with an average density of 6.39
individuals-dredge"1 (284 individuals-m"2). Average Chironomidae abundance was greater
downstream of agriculture discharges than aquaculture discharges by 300% in June and 60% in
September, 2001 (Figure 57). Greatest Chironomidae densities occurred in the deposition zone of
the Crystal Springs study site in July (Figure 58).  Densities at this particular location averaged
4,006 individuals-m"2 over eight dredge samples.  Overall, maximum Chironomidae density
occurred in a July grab sample 2.5 meters in depth and between 100 and 200 meters downstream
of the Crystal Springs aquaculture facility. This sample had  160 individuals, equivalent to 7,111
Chironomidae-m"2. The Chironomidae sampled in this particular grab were burrowed into the
fine sediment. The sediments in this sample were classified as loamy sand and lacked the black,
gelatinous consistency and H2S odor typically associated with reducing sediments. There was
very little aquatic macrophyte biomass sampled at this location and mats of filamentous algae
were absent.
Statistical Comparisons
      Statistical tests were performed on sampled BMI populations for two primary purposes.
First, it was critical to determine whether BMI metrics (abundance, biomass, and taxa richness)
were statistically different downstream of agriculture sites and aquaculture sites. Secondly, we
attempted to decipher statistical differences between these BMI parameters in the control and
deposition zones of each individual site. The principal components analysis showed that the
BMI data (abundance, biomass, and taxa richness) were approximately multivariate normal
because each principal component was approximately univariate normal. There were a few
outliers indicated by the principal components analysis but these were not removed because the
values were reasonable and were consistent between replicates. The MANOVA tests showed
that there was a significant month difference for at least one of the three measured  variables
(Wilks' Lambda, p<0.0001), meaning that BMI populations showed a temporal variability. The
MANOVA tests also showed that there was a significant site difference for at least one of the
three measured variables (Wilks' Lambda, p<0.0001), meaning that the BMI populations showed

                                                                                     18

a spatial variability. Because of the multivariate differences by month and site, the ANOVA
tests comparing BMI population metrics between control and deposition zones were run on each
month and site separately.  Data used in all BMI ANOVA tests were not transformed because the
univariate procedure showed all variables to be approximately normal.
      Tables 10-14 indicate whether significant differences occurred between the average BMI
values upstream and downstream of each discharge by site and month. At agriculture sites,
general trends show that BMI taxa richness was significantly greater upstream of the discharges
about five times more often than downstream of the discharges. At aquaculture sites, general
trends show that BMI abundance and biomass were significantly greater downstream of the
discharge about two times more often than upstream of the discharge.  Figures 53-62 provide a
comparison between the aquaculture and agriculture industry deposition zone sediment BMI
variables (abundance, biomass, taxa richness, P. antipodarum abundance, and Chironomidae
spp. abundance). Significant differences between agriculture and aquaculture deposition zones
are illustrated in Figures 53-62, as well as significant differences between the control and
deposition zones of each site. Descriptions of these results are detailed in Appendix C.

Aquatic Macrophytes
      Seven vascular AM taxa were sampled from five different families throughout the five-
month sampling period on the middle Snake River (Table 15). Potamogeton crispus, Elodea
canadensis, and Ceratophyllum demersum were the most abundant species sampled at the
aquaculture study sites (Tables  1.6,17, and 18).  Potamogeton crispus and Ceratophyllum
demersum were the most abundant species sampled at the agriculture study sites (Tables 19,20,
and 21). P. crispus dominated both control (54.3 %) and deposition (54.9 %) zones of the Box
Canyon study site.  P. crispus also dominated the control zone (62.9 %) of AD2 and both the
control (51.6 %) and deposition (75.6%) zone of AD3. E. canadensis dominated both the control
(86.8 %) and deposition (84.5 %) zone of the Rim View study site, and the control zone (69.8 %)
of the Crystal Springs study site. C. demersum was not only dominant in the deposition zone
(47.0 %) of the Crystal Springs study site, but it was also the most dominant species in the
control (93.7 %) and deposition (93.9 %) zone of ADI and the deposition zone (95.0 %) of AD2.

Statistical Considerations
      Statistical tests were performed on sampled AM populations for two primary purposes.
First, it was critical to determine whether AM biomass was statistically different downstream of
agriculture sites and aquaculture sites.  Secondly, we attempted to decipher statistical differences
between AM biomass in the control and deposition zones of each individual site.  ANOVA
results indicate that there was a significant month difference in overall AM biomass (p =
0.0242), meaning that AM populations showed temporal variability. There was also a significant
site difference in overall AM biomass (p < 0.0001), meaning that AM populations showed
spatial variability. As a result, data from  each month and site were kept separate when analyzing
for significant differences between AM biomass in the control and deposition zones.
    Tables 10-14 indicate whether significant differences occurred between the average AM
biomass upstream and downstream of each discharge across each different site and month.
Distinct trends became  evident and were unique to each industry. At agriculture sites, AM
biomass was never significantly greater downstream of the discharge than upstream. In fact, 4 of
15 sampling occurrences (3 agriculture sites x 5 sampling months = 15 sampling occurrences)
resulted in significantly greater AM biomass upstream of the discharge than downstream.  At
aquaculture sites, on the other hand, AM  biomass was never significantly greater upstream of the
discharge than downstream.  Seven of 15 sampling occurrences (3 aquaculture sites x 5 sampling
months = 15 sampling occurrences) resulted in significantly greater AM biomass downstream of
the discharge than upstream.
      Figure 63 provides a comparison between the AM biomass in the deposition zones of
pooled aquaculture study sites and pooled agriculture study sites. Significant differences
between the control  and deposition zones of each site for each of the five sampling months are
illustrated in Figure  64.  Further description of AM biomass results is detailed in Appendix C.
Average AM biomass was greater downstream of aquaculture discharges than agriculture
discharges by 40x in June and 5x in September, 2001  (Figure 63). The greatest AM biomass
sampled from the middle Snake River in 2001 occurred within 200 meters downstream of Rim
View aquaculture facility in June (RK 964.0, north bank) (Figure 64). Densities at this particular
Rim View location averaged 316.01 g-m"2for eight dredge samples in June, with a maximum
biomass of 677.71 g-m"2 approximately 100 meters downstream of the discharge.

DISCUSSION
Sediment Depth
     As stated in the results, sediment probing was not conducted upstream of the discharges
because the purpose was not to compare upstream and downstream differences in sediment
depth.  We simply wanted to attempt to understand the three dimensional dynamics of the
deposition zones downstream of the six study site discharges. Mainly, we wanted to answer the
question of how sediment depth might change with distance downstream of the discharge.
     Inorganic sediments, eroded from adjacent farmlands, were transported to the river via
irrigation return flows. Sediment transport was evident from the distinct brown color of the
discharge water and the reduced water transparency downstream of agriculture discharges.
These in-field observations led us to believe that sediment depth at agriculture sites was
primarily a result of inorganic particles dropping out of suspension and settling to the river
substrate.  However, no trends were evident  between the three agriculture study sites when we
studied the relationship between sediment depth and distance from the discharge (Figure 6). We
noticed pockets of very deep sediment as well as pockets of shallow sediment throughout the
entire sampling distance downstream of the agriculture discharges. Each agriculture study site
was different. ADI displayed no distinguishable sediment depth pattern. Sediment depth at
AD2 was consistently very deep throughout  the entire 150 meters downstream of the discharge.
At ADS, sediment depth increased with distance  downstream of the discharge.
     At aquaculture study sites, general increases in sediment depth occurred as the distance
downstream from the discharge increased, to the  maximum sampled distance of 150 meters
(Figure 5).  For all three aquaculture sites combined, a two-fold increase in average sediment
depth occurred from 10 meters downstream of the discharge (0.8 m sediment depth) to 150
meters downstream of the discharge (1.5 m sediment depth).  Although sediments depth
measurements were limited to a maximum of 150 meters downstream of each study site
discharge, sediments were dredged as far downstream as 200 meters from each study site
discharge. Sediments dredged between 150  and 200 meters downstream of aquaculture
discharges were generally fine-textured, leading us to assume that sediment depth was
continuing to increase beyond the maximum sampled distance of 150 meters.
     Different patterns of sediment depth between agriculture and aquaculture study sites
complicate our understanding of deposition zones.  Variations in water velocity and suspended

-------
                                                                                    21
sediment particle size can dramatically alter the sediment depth at any given location (Thomas et
al 2001). These results reiterate the fact that sediment patterns in the middle Snake River are
very dynamic and constantly changing.

Sediment Characterization
Particle Size
     Sand was the dominant particle sampled at the middle Snake River study sites in 2001,
followed by silt and clay, respectively.  Comparisons were made between 2000 sediment depth
results and 1994 sediment depth results from the middle Snake River study of the Crystal
Springs reach (Falter and Burris 1996).  While sediment depth did not appear to differ between
1994 and 2000, the composition of particle sizes differed greatly between 1994 and 2001.
Specifically, sands averaged 46-59% of the dredged sediment from the Crystal Springs study site
in 1994 but averaged 59-95% of the dredged sediment from the same site in 2001. Likewise,
clay content averaged 37-46% of the dredged sediment from the Crystal Springs study site in
1994 but only 0.5-2.0% of the  dredged sediment from the same site in 2001. Particle size values
were determined using the Buoyoncos hydrometer method for both years. Larger particle size in
2001 is likely the result of high flows in 1997 that flushed fines from the surficial sediment,
leaving a higher proportion of larger sand particles behind.
     The 2001 middle Snake River study indicated that large amounts of silt and clay-sized
particles were not being deposited within the study reach. In contrast, studies by Brockway and
Robison in 1992 estimate that while only 3.1 million kg of fine solids entered the study reach
from sources upstream of Milner Dam (RK 1,028) during the period from June 1990 to July
1991, approximately 63.5 million kg of fine-grained sediment left the study reach at King Hill
(RK 877.6) (EPA  2002). This means that approximately 59.9 million kg of sediment entered the
middle Snake River downstream of Milner Dam and remained in suspension to King Hill (150.4
kilometers downstream) during this 12-month period. The finer particles, namely silts and clays,
likely made up a significant portion of the suspended sediments making it downstream to King
Hill. However, Brockway and Robison (1992) also estimated that over 26.4 million kg of
sediment was deposited in this same study reach during this period.  Extremely high flows during
1997 likely flushed some of the deposited fines out of the reach, meaning that sediments sampled
in 2001 were recent deposits.

Nutrients
      Phosphorus and nitrogen are the nutrients that most often regulate eutrophic conditions in
aquatic ecosystems. Phosphorus is often the limiting nutrient in aquatic systems and is found in
both organic and inorganic forms (IDEQ 1995).  Sediment phosphorus levels can become
extremely high, even to levels > 12,000 fig-g"1 as reported in the industrialized rivers of England
(Owens and Walling 2002) and 2,600 ng-g"1 in the middle Snake River (Falter and Carlson
1994). Alternatively, nitrogen is less a limiting nutrient in aquatic systems, but can become
limiting in systems saturated with phosphorus (Falter and Carlson 1994).  Natural nitrogen levels
include a significant proportion of atmospheric nitrogen that is transferred to the aquatic system
via microbial processes (IDEQ 1995).  Sediment Kjeldahl nitrogen was reported as high as
39,573 jag-g"1 in the middle Snake River in July, 1992 (Falter and Carlson 1994).
Between-Industry Comparison

Overall, 2001 sediment nutrient levels (P and N) were greater immediately downstream of
aquaculture discharges than agriculture discharges to the middle Snake River. This result should
not be misinterpreted to indicate that agriculture discharges do not contribute high nutrient loads
to the study reach.  For example, sediment P from every 2001 middle Snake River sediment
sample (including agriculture sites) exceeded the 31 1.8 ng-g"1 maximum sediment P sampled in
the Crystal Springs Reach in 1992 (Falter and Carlson 1994) (Table 1). In fact, sediment P
concentrations sampled downstream of agriculture discharges in 2001  averaged 688.07 (ng-g"1
(Table 2), a concentration more than two times the 1992 maximum sediment P concentration
     Most nutrients leaving croplands are associated with sediment transport (Omernik et al.
1981).  Studies by Brockway and Robison (1992) clearly documented the high nutrient loads
associated with suspended sediment from agriculture return flows. They estimated that 33,566
kg of total phosphorus loadings entered the middle Snake River from 18-measured agriculture
return flows (including ADI, AD2, and AD3) during the 12-month sampling period from June
1990 to July 1991.  Likewise, findings by Brockway and Robison (1992) show that ADI, AD2,
and AD3 all contributed P over the 42.5 ug-1"1 total phosphorus water quality criterion
(statistically based on 25th percentile of subregional waters) recommended by Flemer in 2002
(EPA personal communication) throughout the May through September, 1991 irrigation season.

Nitrate+nitrite loads from agriculture return flows were estimated at 172,365 kg over the 12
months for the 18-measured study sites in 1990-91. The 0.3 mg-1"1 nitrate+nitrite water quality
criterion used by Idaho DEQ was then exceeded by ADI, AD2, and AD3 over nearly the entire
12-month period.

     Although many studies, such as those mentioned above, have indicated high nutrient loads
to the middle Snake River from agriculture sources, 2001 middle Snake River sediments sampled
downstream of agriculture discharges contained low nutrient concentrations relative to sediments
downstream of aquaculture discharges. Sediment P averaged 688.07 ug-g"1 downstream of
agriculture discharges and 1473.93 ug-g"1 downstream of aquaculture discharges. Sediment N
averaged 0.03 % downstream of agriculture discharges and 0.10 % downstream of aquaculture
discharges.

Within-Industry Comparison
     Nutrient levels (N and P) of sediments sampled upstream and downstream of agriculture
discharges varied between the three agriculture study sites. Average nutrient levels were greater
upstream of the AD3 discharge than downstream for all five sampling months (Tables 3-7).
Conversely, average nutrient levels were greater downstream of the AD2 (3 of 5 months) and
ADI (4 of 5 months) discharges than upstream of their respective discharges. In 60 % of
agriculture samples, high nutrient levels were correlated with high proportions of fine sediments.
We found nutrient levels were the highest in areas where river morphology allowed the most
deposition of fine material (i.e. backwater area, inside bend, downstream of sandbar).  For
example, when sampling sediment from the ADI study site, a large sand bar was observed just
downstream of the discharge. This sandbar was positioned perpendicular to the shoreline and
likely blocked much of the downstream flow, creating calm conditions downstream of the
sandbar where fine sediment was more likely to be deposited. As a result, ADI deposition zone
sediments contained higher nutrient concentrations than ADI control zone sediments.
     If agriculture discharge water to the middle Snake River is high in nutrients (Brockway
and Robison 1992),  why did we not find the 2001 sampled sediments downstream of agriculture
discharges to be significantly higher in nutrients than the sampled sediments upstream of
agriculture discharges? A likely explanation is that we sampled sediment only within the first
200 meters downstream of agriculture discharges.  Phosphorus adheres to finer clay and silt

-------
                                                                                       24
particles more readily than to coarse sand particles.  Sampling within the first 200 meters
downstream of the agriculture discharges likely missed sampling much of the clay and silt
particles and associated nutrients because they settled out further downstream. Studying the
influence of particle size on deposition rates, Thomas et al. (2001) concluded, "smaller particles
deposited more slowly, and thus traveled farther, than larger size classes". It has also been
established that a small, but significant amount of nutrients from agriculture watersheds reach
rivers in soluble forms not associated with the sediment (Omernik et al.  1981). As a result,
dissolved nutrient loads entering the middle Snake River from agriculture discharges could easily
be transported great distances before being assimilated by biota and eventually cycled to the
surface sediment. Therefore, it is not surprising to find that 2001 sediment P levels directly
upstream of agriculture discharges (control zones) are higher or similar to downstream levels, as
a result of upstream agriculture loading.
     Before aquaculture facilities were built in the Hagerman Valley, the cool springs gushing
from the north canyon walls flowed unimpeded into middle Snake River. As seen downstream
of aquaculture facilities today, the springs created plumes of cool, highly transparent water for
several hundred meters downstream before gradually mixing with mainstem waters. These clear
plumes in the mainstem Snake River likely supported healthy, diverse populations of native
aquatic vegetation that found growth advantageous in the highly developed photic environment,
as in the alcove springs today. The limited supply of phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations
and natural flows that seasonally scoured out bed sediments probably kept the vegetation growth
at an acceptable level (<200 g-m"2) (IDEQ 1995). Today, evidence of this historical growth can
be found in Blue Heart Springs (RK 946.5), adjacent to, but minimally impacted by middle
Snake River flows.
     As aquaculture facilities were introduced to the Hagerman Valley, they began utilizing the
constant spring flows to raise coldwater fish species. Spring waters are first diverted through
hatchery raceways before discharge to the middle Snake River. These plumes maintained their
cool, highly transparent nature. However, additions to the discharge water from aquaculture
operations were introduced in the form of organic solids, fecal matter, and unconsumed food.
These organic particles were transported to the river in aquaculture discharges, albeit in low
concentrations but high annual loading rates. The natural, background levels of vegetation
downstream of these discharges began trapping the organic material and depositing it in the

-------
                                                                                      25
sediments near their roots (Barko et al. 1991, Petticrew and Kalff 1992, Chambers and Prepas
1994). The trapping of organic material is further enhanced by the decrease in water velocity
created by AM growth. Gradually these deposits built up in the sediments downstream of
aquaculture discharges, providing high concentrations of organic matter, carbon, nitrogen,
phosphorus, and trace elements in the rooting medium (Sand-jensen 1998) for greater plant
densities and more widespread establishment of plant beds.  Sand-jensen (1998) concluded that
the sediment surface was "markedly raised and enriched  with fine particles" in a dense patch of
Elodea Canadensis. Over a sequence of low flow years such as 1986-93, these mats of
vegetation utilize the nutrients trapped in the sediment to grow larger and denser. In the fall, the
dense mats of vegetation would senesce and settle to the  substrate, recycling some contained
nutrients to the sediments for next year's growth (Chambers and Prepas 1994). Such nutrients
and organic matter intermittently bound in the biota and sediments will be transported
downstream at a much slower rate (IDEQ 1995) and eventually create anoxic sediment
conditions in deeper deposits. Anoxic sediments were inferred by color change from pale gray to
near black in New Zealand streams (Broekhuizen et al. 2001) and in the middle Snake in 1992-
94 (Falter and Burris 1996). Similar black sediments were sampled downstream of aquaculture
discharges to the middle Snake River in 2001, indicating anoxic sediments.  Sediment redox
potentials downstream of aquaculture discharges dropped below -200 millivolts (mV) during the
early summer (June and July)  of 2001 sampling.  This result is also a strong indicator of low
sediment dissolved oxygen concentrations.
     Although better aquaculture practices have been put in place, such as settling ponds and
screens (EPA 2002) reducing overall nutrient loading, the nutrient sink already established in the
sediments downstream of aquaculture facilities continues to  supply the nutrients needed for
dense mats of vegetation to grow each spring. Again, these high nutrient concentrations were
evident in sediments sampled  downstream of aquaculture discharges to the middle Snake River
in 2001, averaging 1473.93 ug-g"1 P and 0.10 %N.  Even if aquaculture operations could
eliminate additional organic nutrient inputs, it is likely that the steady supply of nutrients
provided by the sediments would be enough to support several more years of nuisance level
aquatic growth.  This cycling of nutrients downstream of aquaculture facilities would continue
until high water year's scoured sediments out of the reach.

                                                                                     26
    Chambers and Prepas (1994) indicate the difficulty in distinguishing nutrient enrichment
sources to the Saskatchewan River, Saskatchewan between effluent loading and nutrient
enrichment from indirect effects caused by enhanced growth of AM. Regardless of which has
the greatest effect, the combination of AM growth and effluent loading can create nutrient-
enriched sediments at a rate superseding that of AM growth or effluent loading alone.  The
Saskatchewan River AM study, and the 1992-94 middle Snake River studies (Falter and Carlson
1994; Falter et al. 1995; Falter and Burris 1996) concluded that riverbed nutrient concentrations
were higher in vegetated areas receiving loading from anthropogenic sources than non-vegetated
areas receiving loading from anthropogenic sources.  These findings agreed with those found in
the middle Snake River in 2001, where sediment nutrient concentrations were higher
downstream of aquaculture discharges (vegetated area) than downstream of agriculture
discharges (minimally vegetated area).  The capacity of AM to continuously trap suspended
solids and nutrients from anthropogenic sources may lead to this result.
     Very high densities of vascular aquatic macrophytes downstream of aquaculture facilities
provide the surface area necessary for epiphytic algae to attach and grow. Excellent correlations
have been reported between algal growths and phosphate concentrations in waters (Fox et al.
1989). Through much of June, July, and August 2001 algae covered the entire surface of the
water within 10-20 meters from the shoreline and several hundred meters downstream of the
three-aquaculture facilities.  Because epiphytes gain much of their nutrients from the water
column, it has been suggested that senescing algae cells may provide a route for the transfer of
nutrients absorbed from the water (by algae) to the sediments (Barko et al. 1991). Decomposing
filamentous  algal growths then contribute to sediment nutrient concentrations.  Therefore, the
high epiphyte levels found in the middle Snake River provide yet another mechanism for the
accumulation of nutrients in sediments downstream of aquaculture facilities.
     Organic matter content (percent by weight) of sediment was measured in August-October,
2000. A difference between sediment organic matter downstream of agriculture and aquaculture
industries was apparent. Maximum sediment organic matter (5.0 %) was sampled downstream
of the Crystal Springs study site in October. Minimum sediment organic matter (0.23 %) was
sampled downstream of the ADS study site in September. Sediment organic matter downstream
of aquaculture discharges averaged 1.30, 2.20, and 1.85 % for CS, RV, and BC, respectively.
Sediment organic matter downstream of agriculture discharges averaged 0.75, 0.88, and 1.12 %

                                                                                     27
for ADS, AD2, and ADI, respectively. Average organic content of sediments downstream of
aquaculture discharges (1.78 %) was nearly twice that of average sediment organic content
downstream of agriculture discharges (0.91 %).  This distinct difference in organic matter
composition is likely caused by the increase in aquatic vegetation cycling downstream of
aquaculture facilities coupled with the slow, steady organic loading from aquaculture discharge.
      Sediment nutrient levels (N and P) were typically  greater downstream of aquaculture
discharges (0.10 %N, 1473.93 ug-g"1 P) than upstream of aquaculture discharges (0.06 %N,
734.87 ug-g"1 P) throughout 2001 sampling (Table 2). However, the Box Canyon study site
showed greater sediment nitrogen upstream in June, 2001. Loading of silt and clay-sized
particles and associated nitrogen from upstream sources apparently settled out in the Box
Canyon control zone during June, raising nitrogen content in the sediments. These silt and clay-
sized particles and associated nutrients did not readily settle in the Box Canyon deposition zone
only a few hundred meters downstream, the colder spring waters discharged by the aquaculture
facility apparently diluting mainstem middle Snake River water and the suspended sediment and
nutrient load from upstream sources.
Selected Trace Elements
Between-Industry Comparison
    Of the 17 selected trace elements (other than N and P) measured in the middle Snake River
in 2001,14 (Ca, Mg, K, Zn, Cu, Fe, S, Pb, Cr, Cd, Ba, Ni, Co, and Be) were found in
significantly higher concentrations downstream of aquaculture discharges than agriculture
discharges for at least one sampling month (i.e., sampling event; see Figures 13-52).  Of the
remaining three selected trace elements (Mo, Na, and Mn), only Mo was found in significantly
higher concentrations downstream of agriculture discharges than aquaculture discharges for at
least one sampling month.
Within-Industry Comparison
       When comparing trace element concentrations upstream of aquaculture discharges with
concentrations downstream of aquaculture discharges, and when comparing the trace element
concentrations upstream of agriculture discharges with concentrations downstream of agriculture
areas, we noticed that trends in one element typically matched trends in the other elements
(Tables 3-7). For example, when Ca concentrations were significantly greater downstream of the
Crystal Springs discharge than upstream in June (Table 3), 14 of the remaining  17 selected trace

                                                                                     28
 element concentrations (C, Mg, K, Na, Zn, Cu, Fe, S, Pb, Cr, Cd, Ba, Ni, and Be) were also
 significantly greater downstream of the Crystal Springs discharge than upstream of the
 discharge.
    In general, greater concentrations of the selected trace elements were found upstream of the
 ADS and BC discharges than downstream of their respective discharges. For example, June Pb .
 concentrations upstream of the AD3 and BC discharges averaged 27.8 and 31.0 ug-g"1,
 respectively, compared to 16.4 and 20.3  ug-g"1 Pb downstream of their respective discharges
.(Table 3). Alternatively, greater concentrations of the selected trace elements were found
 downstream of the ADI and CS discharges than upstream of their respective discharges.  For
 example, July Fe concentrations downstream of the ADI and CS  discharges averaged 12,000 and
 9,786 ug-g"1, respectively, compared to 9,500 and 7,950 ug-g"1 Fe upstream of their respective
 discharges (Table 4). Results were mixed at AD2 and RV, meaning that selected trace element
 concentrations were greater upstream of the discharge in some months and greater downstream
 of the discharge in other months.
    Of further interest were the extremely high levels of Mg, Na, Mn, Fe, Pb, Cr, Cd, Ba, Ni,
 Co, and Mo that were sampled upstream of the AD3 discharge in July and September, 2001
 (Tables 4 and 6, respectively). The concentrations of these selected trace elements were
 typically over two times greater than the concentrations of their respective trace elements in any
 other site or month.  It is unknown why the sediments upstream of AD3 contained such high
 amounts of these trace elements. However, these high trace element levels were not associated
 with significantly different BMI or AM communities. Phosphorus levels were  also high
 upstream of the AD3 discharge for July and September compared to the zones upstream of the
 other agriculture sites. However, the phosphorus levels upstream of the AD3 discharge did not
 exceed levels found in the deposition zones of the three-aquaculture sites.
 Sediment Guidelines Comparison
    Screening concentrations for Background Level (BL), Threshold Effects Level (TEL), and
 Probable Effects Level (PEL) have been determined for a few of the 18 selected trace elements
 measured in the middle Snake River (Table 22). BLs for trace elements are the lowest screening
 concentrations in freshwater sediment. Sediments with trace element concentrations found
 below BLs would be considered healthy, natural sediment communities. The TEL represents the
 concentration below which adverse effects of the trace element on the benthic community are

-------
                                                                                    29
expected to occur only rarely. The PEL represents the level above which adverse effects of the
trace element on the benthic community are frequently expected. TELs and PELs are based on
benthic community metrics and toxicity testing. The BLs, TELs, and PELs used for comparison
were derived from the Screening Quick Reference Tables (SQuiRTs) provided by the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Coastal Protection and Restoration Division
(Buchman 1999).  Further comparisons were made with the 1994 Florida Sediment Quality
Assessment Guidelines (FDEP) covering 6 of the 18 selected trace elements measured in the
2001 middle Snake River study.
    Major sources of zinc (Zn)  to aquatic systems include municipal wastewater effluents, zinc
mining, smelting, refining activities, wood combustion, waste incineration, iron and steel
production, and other atmospheric emissions (FDEP 1994). In fine-grained sediments, like those
found in the middle Snake River, Zn readily adsorbs to organic matter and generally forms
insoluble sulfides under reducing conditions.  BL of Zn occurs in the range of 7-38  jug-g"1, with a
TEL and PEL of 123.1 and 315  ug-g"1, respectively (Buchman 1999). Zn concentrations in the
middle Snake River averaged 29-76 ng-g"1 in 2001 samples. The upper BL Zn concentration (38
|ag-g") was exceeded both upstream and downstream of all six middle Snake River study sites in
at least one 2001 sampling month.
     The natural BL of manganese (Mn)  in freshwater sediment is approximately 400 ^g-g'1
(Buchman 1999).  The lowest TEL for Mn based on Hyalella azteca bioassays is 630 jag-g"1.
This is the concentration where  the amphipod, H. azteca, begins to show adverse affects from
Mn. Mn concentrations in the middle Snake River averaged 113-485 ng-g"1 in 2001 samples.
Most concentrations in the middle Snake River are well below BL for freshwater sediment. The
Mn concentrations that exceeded BL were sampled upstream of the AD3 discharge  in July and
September.
     Copper (Cu) in aquatic systems occurs naturally from the weathering or solution of copper
minerals and copper sulfides (FDEP  1994). Unnatural levels of Cu result from anthropogenic
sources including brass and Cu pipe waste, Cu compounds used as algaecides, sewage treatment
plant effluents, agriculture and aquaculture uses of Cu as pesticides and fungicides,  and from
atmospheric fallout.  Copper can occur in aquatic environments in association with organic
matter, the typical attachment form in sediments. Aquatic macrophytes readily accumulate Cu,
an essential micronutrient in plants. The BL of Cu occurs in the range of 10-25 j^g-g"1, with a

-------
                                                                                     30
TEL and PEL of 35.7 and 197 ng-g"1, respectively (Buchman 1999).  Cu concentrations in the
middle Snake River averaged 7.5-33.0 jug-g"1 in 2001 samples. Average concentrations greater
than the upper BL concentration (25 ng-g"1) occurred upstream of the AD3 discharge in July and
September and downstream of the BC discharge in September.
    In aquatic sediment, lead (Pb) is primarily found in association with iron and manganese
hydroxides (FDEP 1994). Pb can also adsorb to clays and organic  matter and can be released
into the water column under reducing conditions from lead sulfide. While aquatic organisms
tend to have a wide range of sensitivities to Pb, gastropods tend to be particularly vulnerable to
high Pb concentrations. BL of Pb occurs in the range of 4-17 jig-g"1, with a TEL and PEL of 35
and 91.3  jig-g"1, respectively (Buchman 1999).  Pb concentrations in the middle Snake River
averaged 14.5-50.75 ng-g"1 in 2001  samples. Average Pb  concentrations greater than BL (4-17
jag-g"1) were sampled upstream and downstream of all six  study site discharges at some point
during June-October, 2001. Average Pb concentrations greater than TEL (35 i^g-g"1) were
sampled upstream of the AD3 discharge in July and September, downstream of the CS discharge
in September, and upstream of the RV discharge in October.
    Chromium (Cr) is a trace element widely used in industrial processes (FDEP 1994).
Chromium compounds are  used in the production of paints, dyes, explosives, ceramics, and
paper and are emitted to the environment from the metal plating industry, coal and oil burning,
cement manufacturing, and the production of chromium steels. Cr  adsorbs to organic material in
aquatic systems and is generally more toxic to vegetation than fish. Cr will also bioaccumulate
in the tissues of aquatic plants, especially algae. BL of Cr occurs in the range of 7-13 jug-g"1,
with a TEL and PEL of 37.3 and 90 jag-g"1, respectively (Buchman  1999). Cr concentrations in
the middle Snake River averaged 12.5-67.75 ng-g"1 in 2001 samples.  Almost all samples at
every site and month contained Cr concentrations greater than the BL (7-13 ng-g"1). Average Cr
concentrations exceeded the TEL (37.3 ng-g"1) upstream of the AD3 discharge in July and
September and downstream of the BC discharge in August and September.
      Anthropogenic cadmium (Cd) sources include mining, metals smelting, the manufacturing
of alloys, paints, batteries, and plastics, agriculture uses of sludge, fertilizers, and pesticides, and
the burning of fossil fuels (FDEP 1994). Cd is found adsorbed to organic matter in sediments
and can significantly accumulate in biological tissues. This trace element is known to reduce

                                                                                    31
growth and inhibit the reproduction of various aquatic organisms. BL of Cd occurs in the range
of 0.1-0.3 jag-g"1, with a TEL and PEL of 0.6 and 3.5 jig-g"1, respectively (Buchman 1999).  Cd
concentrations in the middle Snake River averaged 0.44-3.55 ng-g"1 in 2001 samples.  All
samples at every site and month contained Cd concentrations greater than the BL (0.1-0.3 u.g-g~
'). Average Cd concentrations exceeded the TEL (0.6 u.g-g"') at all sites at some time during the
June-October study. Average Cd concentrations exceeded the PEL (3.5 jig-g"1) upstream of the
AD3 discharge in July.
     Anthropogenic  sources of nickel (Ni) include fossil fuel combustion, nickel ore mining,
smelting, electroplating, and nuclear power plants (FDEP 1994). Ni adsorbs to organic matter
and tends to combine with iron and manganese in sediments.  In anaerobic conditions, Ni can
form insoluble complexes with sulfides and become toxic to organisms  in the presence of
copper.  Screening concentrations for Ni are 9.9,18, and 35.9 fig-g"1  for BL, TEL, and PEL,
respectively (Buchman  1999).  Ni concentrations in the middle Snake River averaged 8.95-43.75
|j,g-g"' in 2001 samples.  Background Ni concentrations (9.9 ng-g"1) were exceeded in nearly all
middle Snake River sediment samples in 2001.  Average Ni concentrations exceeded the TEL
(18 u.g-g~') upstream of the BC discharge in June and  exceeded the PEL (35.9 ng-g"1) upstream
of the AD3 discharge in July and September.
     Background cobalt (Co) levels occur in freshwater sediments at about 10 u.g-g~' (Buchman
1999). Co concentrations in the middle Snake River sediments averaged 6.3-26.0 f^g-g"1.
Although the Co TEL and PEL were not given,  the average Co concentration in middle Snake
River sediments exceeded the BL upstream and downstream of the BC and RV discharges,
downstream of the ADI and AD2 discharges, and upstream of the AD3 discharge. Maximum
Co concentrations occurred upstream of the AD3 discharge and were 200 % of Co BL (10 jig-g"
') in July and September.

Benthic Macroinvertebrates
      Benthic macroinvertebrates (BMI) are the most commonly sampled group used to assess
the health of aquatic systems (Timm et al. 2001).  BMI communities are used as biological
indicators because they are relatively sessile in nature (thereby integrating biological responses
to the ambient over time), ubiquitous, diverse with individual taxon responses to the
environment, and found in a wide range of aquatic habitat types (Linke et al. 1999).  Studies by
Voelz et al. (2000) indicate that BMI assemblages have low resistance to disturbance, but high
resilience. This means that slight changes in water quality can alter BMI communities, but not
enough to extirpate all BMI groups. In addition, BMI sampling is a quick and economical way
to detect changes in water quality and aquatic ecosystem health (Rueda et al. 2002).  However,
BMI communities can also undergo large spatial and temporal variations in structure, thus
stressing the importance of a spatially and temporally representative sampling strategy  (Linke et
al. 1999).
      Biological indices, such as BMI density, biomass, and richness are among the most
commonly used methods for biological monitoring of rivers (Sandin and Johnson 2000).  Studies
by Sandin and Johnson (2000) indicate that BMI taxa richness is one of the most useful indices
in monitoring aquatic habitats, while total density appears least useful.  Because of their density
and sensitivity, Chironomidae density has also been used as an indicator of water quality (Rabeni
and Wang 2001).
      In general, the majority of BMI sampled from the middle Snake River in 2001 were
determined to be pollution-tolerant taxa (Merrit and Cummins .1996, EPA 2002). The most
abundant taxa sampled in 2001 were P. antipodarum, Oligochaeta, Chironomidae, and
Amphipoda (Hyalella azteca).  Evidence from field surveys (EPA 2002) indicates that middle
Snake River conditions do not meet standards set for cold-water biota.  For instance, 1994
temperature monitoring of the middle Snake River at RK 949.5 (near Crystal Springs) resulted in
35 consecutive days with mean daily  water temperatures exceeding 20°C. Furthermore, the
middle Snake River does not meet the State of Idaho water quality criteria for excess nutrients
(EPA 2002):
        "Surface waters of the state shall be free  from excess nutrients that can cause visible
        slime growths or other nuisance aquatic growths impairing designated beneficial uses."

-------
                                                                                     33
    The reduced density of native snail populations indicates further evidence of changing river
conditions. The 1992 threatened or endangered listing of native middle Snake River snails
suggested that present temperature, dissolved oxygen, and flow conditions were often not
suitable for native benthic communities (USFWS FR 59244). Valvata utahensis (Utah Valvata)
was the only listed species encountered throughout the 2001  benthic macroinvertebrate sampling
effort. Averaging 2.67 snails-dredge"1 (118.5 snails-m"2), V. utahensis inhabited very fine, black,
organically enriched sediments with very heavy macrophyte  and associated filamentous algae
communities.
      Only a few insect taxa other than Chironomidae were sampled from the middle Snake
River in 2001. Insects intolerant of eutrophic conditions were very rare in 2001 samples.  No
insects from the Plecoptera (stonefly) order were sampled from the middle Snake River in 2001.
Additionally, insects from only one Ephemeropteran (mayfly) family and one Trichopteran
(caddis fly) family were sampled  in 2001, Ephemeridae and Polycentropodidae, respectively.
Similar results were evident from middle Snake River samples collected by Idaho State
University (ISU) in 1992-94 (EPA 2002), where no Plecopterans were found in the middle Snake
River.
      Total BMI density in the middle Snake River averaged 844-231,222 individuals-m"2
throughout June-October, 2001.  This range is comparable to the mean density of BMI sampled
in the middle Snake River from 1992-1994 by Idaho State  University (EPA 2002).  These studies
found densities often  exceeding 75,000 and occasionally exceeding 200,000 individuals-m"2.
Although BMI densities in the middle Snake River are high,  taxa richness remains relatively low.
Taxa richness in 2001 middle Snake River samples averaged 1.25-10.25 distinct BMI taxa over
all study sites and months.  Thirty-one distinct taxa were sampled from the middle Snake River
in 2001. These overall richness values for the middle Snake  River are low compared to the total
taxa richness of other large rivers. For example, 55 and 48 total taxa were recently sampled from
the Fraser and Thompson Rivers in British Columbia, respectively (Reece and Richardson 2000).
Furthermore, 54 total taxa have been collected from the  Willamette River, a degraded large river
in western Oregon (Altman et al.  1997).
Between-Industry Comparison
     BMI density, biomass, and richness were generally greater downstream of aquaculture
discharges than downstream of agriculture discharges. This could be due to the productive

-------
                                                                                      34
growth of aquatic vegetation downstream of aquaculture discharges. A study of BMI density in
relation to aquatic vegetation (van den Berg et al. 1997) concluded that plant biomass is more
important in determining the characteristics of the BMI community than the dominant
macrophyte species.  A similar study comparing BMI density, relative density, and diversity
upstream and downstream of pulp mill effluents on the Athabasca River, Alberta, Canada in the
late 1990's observed that density was higher downstream of the mill discharges (Gulp et al.
2000). These results suggest that nutrients from the mills' enhanced primary productivity
downstream, thus enriching BMI populations.
      It is likely that the high sand content below agriculture discharges reduced BMI density,
biomass, and richness downstream of agriculture discharges.  For instance, 2001 average sand
content downstream of agriculture discharges (77.87 %) was greater than downstream of
aquaculture discharges (71.85 %). This difference was only statistically significant in
September, 2001. The increase in substrate sand content could impact BMI communities by
smothering interstitial habitat that is important BMI refuge from flow and predators.  The
increase in  suspended sediment downstream of agriculture discharges, as indicated by secchi
depths as low as 0.5 meters in June, may also create abrasive substrate conditions that are not
suitable to many BMI taxa.
      Potamopyrgus antipodarum densities were greater downstream of aquaculture discharges
than downstream of agriculture discharges. Observations during the 2001 middle Snake study
indicate that the majority of P. antipodarum sampled downstream of aquaculture discharges
were attached to aquatic vegetation. For many snails in general, food availability is a very
important determinate of snail distribution patterns  (Aldridge 1983). Because these exotic snails
seem to prefer algae and diatoms (Lysne 2002), it is very likely that P. antipodarum are found
downstream of aquaculture discharges because they are utilizing the rich periphytic food source
associated with AM. The tolerance of P. antipodarum to high organic sediments has allowed
them to inhabit  sediments downstream of aquaculture operations, where organic matter content
reached levels as high as 5.0 % in 2000 middle Snake River sediments.
      Chironomidae larvae were generally found in greater densities downstream  of agriculture
discharges than aquaculture discharges. Because of the relatively low number of other  BMI taxa
found downstream of agriculture discharges, Chironomidae were able to utilize what little
production  was available on the low organic matter substrates. Chironomidae are known to

-------
                                                                                     35
tolerate and even prefer sand substrates. Relyea et al. (2000) indicate that Chironomidae
"significantly increase in abundance, and therefore density, immediately after an anthropogenic
disturbance that may have the potential to increase inputs of fine sediment". Therefore, the
increased sand content downstream of agriculture discharges relative to aquaculture discharges
(77.87 % at agriculture sites, 71.85 % at aquaculture sites) provided more suitable habitat for
chironomid larvae.
      The average number of distinct BMI taxa sampled (richness) from the middle Snake River
in 2001 was greater downstream of aquaculture discharges (6.0) than downstream of agriculture
discharges (4.0) (Table 9). In rivers with cumulative water quality limitations and reduced taxa
richness, like the middle Snake, the presence of cooler water temperatures and macrophyte
growth, like that downstream of aquaculture discharges, can provide the additional niches
necessary for a more diverse assemblage of taxonomic groups. For example, amphipod
crustaceans were more frequently sampled downstream of aquaculture discharges (54% of
samples) than downstream of agriculture discharges (34%). Amphipods utilize macrophyte
growth downstream of aquaculture discharges for food resources and refuge.
Within-Industry Comparison
    General differences in BMI density, BMI biomass, P. antipodarum density, and
Chironomidae density between the control and deposition zones of the three agriculture study
sites were not consistent over the five sampling months. Drawing any conclusions from BMI
metrics measured in agriculture control and deposition zones would be very difficult because
consistent trends are lacking.  Overall, we would contend that BMI communities near agriculture
discharges are very sporadic, and may be associated with the patchy AM communities.
       BMI density, BMI biomass, and Potamopyrgus antipodarum density were greater
downstream of the CS and RV discharges than upstream of their respective discharges.
Alternately, BMI density and biomass and P. antipodarum density were greater upstream of the
BC discharge than downstream of the BC discharge. It is important to point out that the BC
control zone (upstream of discharge) is generally enriched from upstream loading more so than
any other site because it  is located the furthest downstream. Increased BMI and Potomopyrgus
density followed comparable site-to-site patterns, as did elevated trace elements.  Generally,
where greater trace element concentrations were found, greater BMI density, BMI biomass, and
P. antipodarum density were also found. However, the simple presence of P. antipodarum could

-------
                                                                                     36
be the driving force behind these results. Because P. antipodarum were proportionately one of
the most abundant taxa found in the river, and because they had a high biomass per individual,
the presence or absence of P. antipodarum explains much of the high biomass variability.
Specifically, when P. antipodarum were found in a sample, they were usually found in great
numbers, resulting in a high snail biomass for these samples that would overshadow the biomass
contributed by other taxa in the sample.
    An inverse relationship exists between the BMI density found in an aquaculture sample and
the BMI taxa richness from that same sample. For example, when BMI density was greater in
the CS deposition zone than the control zone, BMI taxa richness was usually greater in the CS
control zone than the deposition zone.  These results are also likely driven by the presence of the
exotic P. antipodarum. As noted above, areas where the exotic snails were sampled ultimately
had fewer other taxa present. This could have been the direct result of competition for the food
resources or space between P. antipodarum and other benthic taxa. Similar studies on the
Athabasca River in the late 1990's found that pulp mill effluents increased BMI biomass and
density, while showing no measurable change in taxa richness (Culp et al. 2000).
    Chironomidae density trends'differed from BMI density, BMI biomass, and P. antipodarum
density trends at  aquaculture sites. Chironomidae density was generally greater downstream of
the BC discharge than upstream of the BC discharge. However, Chironomidae density was
greater upstream of the RV discharge than downstream of the RV discharge.

Aquatic Macrophytes
      Aquatic macrophytes are  a good indicator of the quality of running waters (Grasmuck et al.
1995), as AM biomass and species composition are influenced by the quality of the water and
sediment from which they obtain their nutrients.  Generally, it is the phosphorus content of the
sediments and the water column that most strongly influences the productivity of AM and their
associated epiphytic algae. Rooted AM obtain much of their phosphorus from the sediments
(Barko et al. 1991, Falter and Carlson 1994) but many species also take up nutrients through
their leaves from the water column if sediment nutrients are in short supply (Madsen and
Cedergreen 2002). Epiphytic algae and non-rooted AM must utilize phosphorus only from the
water column.

                                                                                    37
     Chambers and Prepas (1994) noted that broad, shallow rivers of the Canadian prairies that
are nutrient-enriched by sewage effluent can achieve AM biomasses > 1,000 g-m"2. However,
they also indicate that AM densities in the Saskatchewan River, Saskatchewan, Canada were
considered high at 200 g-m"2 in a 1989 study. This 200 g-m"2 density was also determined to be a
reasonable lower bound for nuisance growth of AM in the middle Snake River in the 1990's
(EPA 2002). Average macrophyte biomass in the middle Snake River in the 1990's measured
>3,000 g-m"2 in the Crystal Springs Reach (RK 965.4) and averaged >200 g-m"2 in all sampled
sites <2.0 meters in depth (Falter and Carlson 1994; Falter et al. 1995; Falter and Burris 1996).
Densities found during the 2001 middle Snake River sampling effort were >200  g-m"2 in the RV
deposition zone in June, the RV and BC deposition zones in July, the CS deposition zone in
August, the RV deposition zone in September, and the AD2 deposition zone in October.
Maximum AM biomass was sampled approximately 100 meters downstream of the RV
discharge, totaling 677.71 g-m"2.
     Average sediment TP levels were higher in the middle Snake River in 2001 (490-1800
Hg-g"1) compared to the Saskatchewan River (215-770 ug-g"1) (Chambers and Prepas 1994). The
fact that the 1989 Canada study had higher AM levels (>1000 g-m"2) and lower sediment TP than
the middle Snake River in 2001 is notable but was also apparent in studies of freshwaters
receiving organic pollution in India (Gopal and Chamanlal 1991). Falter and Burris (1996)
conclude that it is more likely that factors associated with high TP (i.e. high sediment organic
content, low sediment oxygen, low redox potential, high sediment ammonia, and organic acids)
together limit AM growth. Other studies have shown that nutrient enrichment (N and P) in
receiving waters stimulate an increase in phytoplankton, thereby limiting light penetration to
macrophytes and decreasing macrophyte growth (Eminson and Phillips 1978).
     The species composition of AM communities in a waterbody can often influence trophic
status (Grasmuck et al. 1995).  Total AM biomass in the middle Snake River in 2001 was
dominated by Potamogeton crispus, Ceratophyllum demersum, and Elodea canadensis. Nichols
and Shaw (1986) describe two of these species, E. canadensis and P. crispus, as  "serious aquatic
nuisances in many regions of the world". The ability of these macrophytes to reproduce
vegetatively and to grow in reduced light conditions have allowed them to proliferate in
conditions unsuitable for many other macrophyte species. Other studies have concluded that P.
crispus can tolerate "strong organic pollution" (Grasmuck et al. 1995) and "eutrophication"

-------
                                                                                     38
(Tremp and Kohler 1995).  However, Gopal and Chamanlal (1991) indicated that maximum P.
crispus growth is "obtained in waters relatively free from pollution".
      While P. crispus and C. demersum have been dominant components of the middle Snake
River for some time (Falter and Carlson 1994, Falter et al. 1995, Falter and Burris 1996), it is
apparent that a shift in AM dominance has occurred from Potamogeton pectinatus to E.
Canadensis over the last decade. P. pectinatus was found to be a dominant AM species in the
1990 studies but was sparsely found in 2001 samples.  P. pectinatus are highly competitive and
are a strong indicator of eutrophic conditions in flowing waters (Grasmuck et al. 1995, IDEQ
1995). The species thrives in high water velocities better than other AM species because of their
long, leathery leaves and extensive root systems (EPA 2002). As a result, P. pectinatus typically
grows quickly in the spring when water velocities are greatest, to form  stable beds of vegetation.
Once these macrophyte beds are firmly in place, they can slow water velocities and accumulate
sediments, providing conditions more suitable for non-rooted vascular macrophytes, like C.
demersum and E. canadensis. These non-rooted forms typically float higher in this newly
quiescent water column, taking advantage of better light conditions, eventually shading out
rooted AM like P. pectinatus. The dominance of E. canadensis growths rather than P. pectinatus
in 2001 samples could also be due to the lack of spring sampling (March-May) during that year.
Between-Industry Comparison
     Aquatic macrophyte (AM) biomass was generally greater downstream of aquaculture
discharges than downstream of agriculture discharges. The deep, organically enriched fine
sediment downstream of nutrient loading discharges to the middle Snake River favors aquatic
plant growth (EPA 2002).  Chambers and Prepas (1994) acknowledge that AM growth was
greatest in the Saskatchewan River, Canada where sediment "concentrations of both
exchangeable and total phosporus and nitrogen were greatest". In the middle Snake River, the
aquatic plant growth likely responds to the decrease in TSS downstream of aquaculture
discharges (hatchery outflows diluting TSS of the river), allowing increased light levels to reach
the substrate.  Deeper photic zones would also allow AM colonization to develop in greater
water depths at the aquaculture study sites. Studies on Florida streams  in the mid-1980's
(Canfield and Hoyer 1988) concluded that light availability was the primary factor limiting
growth of AM.  While its uncertain whether light is the limiting factor of AM growth  in the
middle Snake River, the combination of increased light transparencies and sediment nutrients in

                                                                                      39
the middle Snake River provide conditions favoring plant growth downstream of aquaculture
discharges.
      Falter and Carlson (1994) and the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (1995)
concluded that the majority of plant biomass in the middle Snake River was found in waters less
than 2.0 meters in depth. The majority of AM samples collected in the deposition zones of the
six study sites were collected in waters less than 2.0 meters deep (Figure 65).  Similar AM
sampling depths at agriculture and aquaculture study sites in 2001 justified comparison between
AM metrics from the two industries (i.e., if deeper sampling occurred at agriculture sites than
aquaculture sites, we could not have legitimately compared plant growth from the two
industries).
Within-Industry Comparison
      At the three agriculture study sites, a trend in AM biomass between areas upstream and
areas downstream of the discharges was not evident. AM biomass levels in the upstream and
downstream areas at agriculture study sites were limited by reduced light penetration and
increased sediment sand content, a direct result of high TSS levels in those river reaches.
      Madsen et al. (2001) conclude that reduced turbidity increases AM growth. The greater
AM production found in aquaculture deposition zones than aquaculture control zones occurs
with the decrease in TSS downstream of the discharges and higher sediment nutrient
concentrations. These high growths of aquatic vegetation downstream of aquaculture discharges
senesce each year and cycle nutrients back to the sediments through decomposition  (Jacoby et al.
1982). This decomposition, combined with nutrient enrichment from the aquaculture discharges
themselves (EPA 2002), provides sufficient nutrient concentrations for sustained aquatic
vegetation production.

SUMMARY
Sediment Characterization
Particle Size
    1.  No obvious trends were apparent between sediment depth and distance from the
       discharge over the three agriculture study sites. We found pockets of very deep sediment
       (> 1.83 m) as well as pockets of shallow sediment throughout the entire sampling
       distance downstream of the three agriculture discharges.
   2.  At aquaculture study sites, fine sediment depth increased to > 1.83 meters as distance
       downstream from the discharge increased, to the maximum sampled downstream distance
       of 150 meters.
   3.  Sand was the dominant particle sampled throughout the middle Snake River study reach
       in 2001, averaging 43-95 % of total dredged sediments over all sites, control and
       deposition.
   4.  Sand content was greater in agriculture deposition zones than aquaculture deposition
       zones in June, July, August, and September, 2001. Statistically significant differences (p
       < 0.05) between the sand content of agriculture deposition zones and aquaculture
       deposition zones only occurred in September.
   5.  Differences in sand content between the control and deposition zone of Agriculture Drain
       3 (AD3) were not apparent. Sand content was significantly greater in the deposition zone
       of Agriculture Drain 2 (AD2) than in the control zone in all months but October. At
       Agriculture Drain 1 (ADI), sand content was significantly greater in the control zone
       than the deposition zone in all 5 sampling months.
   6.  CS and Rim View (RV) aquaculture sites each had significantly greater sand content in
       control zones than deposition zones for 4 of 5 sampling months but Box Canyon (BC)
       aquaculture site  had significantly greater sand content in deposition zones for 4 of 5
       months.
   7.  Silt content, averaged 4-48% of total dredged sediment in 2001 and was greater in
       agriculture deposition zones than aquaculture deposition zones in June, July, August, and
       September. Statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) between the silt content of
       agriculture deposition zones and aquaculture deposition zones only occurred in June and
       September.

                                                                                      41
   8.  AD3 showed no significant trends in silt content between control and deposition zones.
       AD2 had significantly greater silt content in control zones than deposition zones for 4 of
       5 months whereas ADI had significantly greater silt content in deposition zones than in
       control zones for all months.
   9.  While CS and RV each had significantly greater silt content in deposition zones than
       control zones for 4 of 5 sampling months, BC had significantly greater silt content in
       control zones for 4 of 5 months.
   10. Clays were the least dominant sediment type sampled in the middle Snake River in 2001,
       averaging 0.5-5.0 % of the total dredged sediment by volume.  Clay content was
       significantly greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in
       both July and October.
   11. At ADS and ADI, no significant trends were seen in clay content between deposition
       and control zone sediments.  Clay content in the AD2 control zone was significantly
       greater than clay content in the AD2 deposition zone for four of five months.
   12. CS and RV  had significantly greater clay content in deposition zones than control zones
       in 2 of 5 months, whereas BC had significantly greater clay content in the control zone
       than the deposition zone  in 4 of 5 months.
   13. At the Crystal Springs (CS) aquaculture site (the one site overlapping  1992-94 and 2000-
       01  studies), a substantial decrease in clay content occurred from 1992-94 (37-46 %)
       (Falter and Burris 1996)  and 2001 (0.5-2.0 %).  High flows of 1997 likely flushed out the
       fine clay  content in surficial sediments, leaving behind a higher proportion of sand.
Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Carbon
   1.  Overall, 2001 sediment nutrient levels (P and N) were greater downstream of aquaculture
       discharges than below agriculture discharges in the middle Snake River.  Nitrogen
       content was  significantly greater in aquaculture deposition zones than below agriculture
       deposition zones in both  July and August.  Phosphorus content was significantly greater
       in aquaculture deposition zones than in agriculture deposition zones in June, September,
       and October.
   2.  Sediment P averaged 758.7 ug-g"1 upstream of agriculture discharges and 688.1 ug-g"1
       downstream of agriculture discharges.  Sediment P averaged 734.9 ug-g'1 upstream of
       aquaculture discharges and 1473.9 ug-g"1 downstream of aquaculture discharges.

                                                                                  42
    Sediment P was significantly greater in deposition zone sediments than control zone
    sediments throughout the 5 sampling months for all three aquaculture study sites.
3.  Sediment P concentrations sampled downstream of agriculture discharges in 2001
    averaged 688.07 ng-g"1 (Table 2), a concentration more than two times the 1992
    maximum sediment P concentration (311.8 ng-g"1) (Falter and Carlson 1994).
4.  Sediment N averaged 0.04 % upstream of agriculture discharges and 0.03 % downstream
    of agriculture discharges. Sediment N averaged 0.06 % upstream of aquaculture
    discharges and 0.10 % downstream of aquaculture discharges.
5.  Sediment sampled from the six study sites in the middle Snake River averaged 0.7-3.1
    %C throughout the five sampling months in 2001. Sediment C was significantly greater
    in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June (1.2 % at
    agriculture sites and 2.3 % at aquaculture sites). Sediment sampled from the ADI
    deposition zone had significantly greater carbon content than the ADI control zone for all
    five months sampled.
6.  Sampling only within the first 200 m downstream of discharges likely missed sampling
    much of the clay and silt particles and associated nutrients because they were likely
    deposited further downstream in more quiescent river reaches.
7.  Nutrient content at agriculture study sites coincided with increased silt and clay content
    of the sediment, resulting in highest nutrient concentrations being sampled wherever river
    morphology allowed the deposition of fines.
8.  Even without further organic input by aquaculture facilities, nutrients created by
    macrophyte beds will likely continue to support nuisance growths of macrophytes and
    epiphytic algae until flows are high enough to flush the fine organic sediments
    downstream.
Other Trace Elements
1.  Of the 17 selected trace elements (other than N and P) measured in the middle Snake
    River sediment in 2001, 14 (Ca, Mg, K, Zn, Cu, Fe, S,  Pb, Cr, Cd, Ba, Ni, Co, and Be)
    were found in significantly higher concentrations downstream of aquaculture discharges
    than below agriculture discharges for at least one sampling month; 3 were not (Mo, Na,
    and Mn).

-------
                                                                                 43
2. The Background Level Zn concentration (38 jag-g"1) was exceeded both upstream and
   downstream of all six middle Snake River study sites for at least one 2001 sampling
   month.
3. Mn concentrations that exceeded Background Levels (400 ng-g"1) were sampled upstream
   of the AD3 discharge in July and September.
4. Mean Cu concentrations greater than the upper Background Levels (25 jig-g"1) occurred
   upstream of the AD3 discharge in July and September and downstream of the BC
   discharge in September.
5. Mean Pb concentrations greater than Background Levels (4-17 ng-g"1) were sampled
   upstream and downstream of all six study site discharges at some  point during June-
   October, 2001.  Mean  Pb concentrations greater than the Threshold Effects Level (35
   Hg-g"1) were sampled upstream of the AD3 discharge in July and September, downstream
   of the CS discharge in September, and upstream of the RV discharge in October.
6. Almost all samples at every site and month contained Cr concentrations greater than the
   Background Levels (7-13 (ig-g"1). Mean Cr concentrations exceeded the Threshold
   Effects Level (37.3 ug-g"1) upstream of the AD3 discharge in July and September and
   downstream of the BC discharge in August and September.
7. All samples at every site and month contained Cd concentrations greater than
   Background Levels (0.1-0.3 ng-g"1). Mean Cd concentrations exceeded the Threshold
   Effects Level (0.6 j^g-g"1) at all sites at some time during the June-October study. Mean
   Cd concentrations exceeded the Probable Effects Level (3.5 jig-g"1) upstream of the AD3
   discharge in July.
8. Background Level Ni  concentrations (9.9 ug-g"1) were exceeded in nearly all middle
   Snake River sediment samples in 2001.  Mean Ni concentrations exceeded the Threshold
   Effects Level (18 jag-g"1) upstream of the BC discharge in June and exceeded the
   Probable Effects Level (35.9 jLig-g"1) upstream of the ADS discharge in July and
   September.
9. Maximum Co concentrations occurred upstream of the AD3 discharge and exceeded Co
   Background Levels (10 ug-g"1) by 2X in July and September.

Benthic Macroinvertebrates
    1.  The majority of BMI sampled from the middle Snake River in 2001 were soft-substrate,
       pollution-tolerant taxa (e.g. P. antipodarum, Oligochaeta, Chironomidae, and Hyalella
       azteca).
    2.  Mean BMI density was highest in the deposition zones of pooled aquaculture sites
       (32,610 BMI-m"2) and lowest in the deposition zones of pooled agriculture sites (3,111
       BMI-m"2). Average BMI density was approximately 9x greater downstream of
       aquaculture discharges than downstream of agriculture discharges in June, August, and
       October of 2001.
    3.  Average monthly BMI density was greatest downstream of the RV discharge in June,
       where the total number of organisms exceeded 231,000 BMI-m"2, 73% of which were P.
       antipodarum. Minimum monthly BMI density occurred upstream of the AD3 discharge
       in September, where the total number of organisms was less than 870 individuals-m"2.
    4.  Valvata utahensis (Utah Valvata) was the only listed species encountered throughout the
       2001 benthic macroinvertebrate sampling effort. Averaging 2.67 snails-dredge"1 (118.5
       snails-m"2), V. utahensis inhabited very fine, black, organically enriched sediments with
       very heavy macrophyte communities and associated filamentous algae.
    5.  The exotic P. antopodarum were found in 49.9 % of all grab samples (June-October,
       2001), averaging 258 snails-dredge"1 (11,457 snails-m"2). Average P. antipodarum
       density was significantly greater downstream of aquaculture discharges than agriculture
       discharges by 4500x in June, lOOx in August, and 500x in October, 2001.  Maximum P.
       antipodarum density (567,556 P. antipodarum-m2) occurred in a grab sample between
       100 and 200 m downstream of the Rim View aquaculture facility in June, 2001. Because
       these exotic snails seem to prefer algae and diatoms (Lysne 2002), it is very likely that P.
       antipodarum are found downstream of aquaculture discharges because they are utilizing
       the rich periphytic food source associated with AM.
    6.  Chironomidae spp. were found in 274 (76.3 %) dredge samples at the six sites sampled in
       2001, averaging 6.39 individuals-dredge"1 (284 individuals-m"2). Average Chironomidae
       density was significantly greater downstream of agriculture discharges than downstream
       of aquaculture discharges by 300% in June, 2001. Maximum Chironomidae densities,

-------
                                                                                  45
    averaging 4,006 individuals-m"2 over eight dredge samples, occurred in the deposition
    zone of the Crystal Springs study site in July.
7.  Mean BMI biomass was highest in the control zones of pooled aquaculture sites (38.6
    g-m"2) and lowest in the control zones of pooled agriculture sites (3.0 g-m"2). Average
    BMI biomass was 14x greater downstream of aquaculture discharges than agriculture
    discharges in August and 6x greater in October, 2001.
8.  Mean BMI richness in the middle Snake River in 2001 was greater downstream of
    aquaculture discharges (6.0) than downstream of agriculture discharges (4.0). Mean BMI
    richness was at least 25% greater downstream of aquaculture discharges than downstream
    of agriculture discharges for all months sampled.
9.  BMI density, biomass, and community richness were generally greater downstream of
    aquaculture discharges than downstream of agriculture discharges. The increase in BMI
    density, biomass, and community richness downstream of aquaculture discharges could
    be due to the productive growth of aquatic vegetation in these areas. Conversely, the
    sporadic densities of BMI downstream of agriculture discharges may be associated with
    the patchy AM community composition found at those sites.
       Note: BMI were typically identified to the family level, with selected taxonomic
       groups only identified to the Phylum or Class level (i.e. Phylum Nematoda,  Class
       Oligochaeta) due to their difficult distinction. This potential undercounting  of taxa
       could be a source of error in the BMI richness metric.

Aquatic Macrophytes
1.  Seven vascular AM taxa were sampled from five different families throughout the 5-
    month sampling period in the middle Snake River in 2001. AM biomass in the middle
    Snake River in 2001 was dominated by Potamogeton crispus, Ceratophyllum demersum,
    and Elodea canadensis, all taxa considered tolerant of organic pollution and eutrophic
    conditions.
2.  AM Densities found during the 2001 middle Snake River sampling effort were greater
    than the 200 g-m"2 nuisance level (nuisance level per EPA 2002) in the RV deposition
    zone in June, the RV and BC deposition zones in July, the CS deposition zone in August,
    the RV deposition zone in September, and the AD2 deposition zone in October.

   Maximum AM biomass (677.7 g-m"2) was sampled approximately 100 m downstream of
   the RV discharge.
3. AM biomass averaged 5.9 g-m"2 upstream of agriculture discharges and 6.2 g-m"2
   downstream of agriculture discharges. AM biomass averaged 33.5 g-m"2 upstream of
   aquaculture discharges and 73.1 g-m"2 downstream of aquaculture discharges.
4. AM biomass averaged 11.1 g-m"2 upstream of the AD3 discharge and 6.2 g-m"2
   downstream of the AD3 discharge. AM biomass averaged 5.6 g-m"2 upstream of the AD2
   discharge and 8.0 g-m"2 downstream of the AD2 discharge. AM biomass averaged 1.8
   g-m"2 upstream of the ADI  discharge and 4.4 g-m"2 downstream of the ADI discharge.
5. AM biomass averaged 10.5 g-m"2 upstream of the CS discharge and 33.0 g-m"2
   downstream of the CS discharge. AM biomass averaged 54.8 g-m"2 upstream of the RV
   discharge and 145.0 g-m"2 downstream of the RV discharge. AM biomass averaged 35.3
   g-m"2 upstream of the BC discharge and 41.2 g-m"2 downstream of the BC discharge.
6. AM biomass levels in the upstream and downstream areas at agriculture study sites were
   limited by reduced light penetration, a direct result of high TSS levels.
7. The greater AM production found in aquaculture deposition zones than aquaculture
   control zones occurred with the decrease in TSS and higher nutrient concentrations in the
   sediments downstream of the discharges.
8. Aquatic macrophyte decomposition, combined with nutrient enrichment from the
   aquaculture discharges themselves (EPA 2002), provides sufficient nutrient
   concentrations for sustained aquatic vegetation production.

CONCLUSIONS
     It is difficult to generalize river processing of effluents over a large reach of divergent
conditions. This study showed that the processing and fate of materials entering the middle
Snake River from each discharge are unique depending on water quality, ecological, and
temporal characteristics of each site. For example, nutrients or organic matter entering the
middle Snake River in June are processed differently from materials entering in October.  June
nutrient or organic additions to the Middle Snake River are rapidly utilized by growing plant
communities, whereas more of the October additions are stored in sediments until subsequent
year's high plant growth.  Likewise, materials entering the middle Snake River at an aquaculture
site in a hydrologically constrained reach are processed differently from  materials entering at an
aquaculture site in a hydrologically unconstrained reach. Paniculate additions in constrained
reaches remain in suspension longer than particulate additions in unconstrained reaches due to
the higher gradient and velocities typically associated with constrained reaches. This distinction
between discharge/receiving sites requires that each site's potential impacts be assessed on a site-
by-site basis.
     At the ADS study site (Pigeon Cove LQ and LS Drain), sand content was higher
downstream of the discharge than upstream, whereas silt and clay content was higher upstream
of the discharge than downstream. In all months combined (June-October 2001) average
sediment nitrogen and phosphorus content, and average trace element concentrations (17 selected
elements) were higher upstream of the ADS discharge than downstream. Similarly, 5-month
average BMI density, BMI biomass, BMI richness, and AM biomass were higher upstream of
the ADS discharge than downstream.
     At the AD2 study site (Southside LS2/39A Drain), sand content was higher downstream of
the discharge than upstream, whereas silt and clay content was higher upstream of the discharge
than downstream. In all months combined (June-October 2001) average sediment nitrogen and
all trace elements except Ca, Na, Ni, Co, and Mo had higher concentrations upstream of the AD2
discharge than downstream. However, average sediment phosphorus concentrations for the 5
sampling months were higher downstream of the AD2 discharge than upstream. Average BMI
density and BMI richness  for the 5 sampling months were higher upstream of the AD2 discharge
than downstream. However, average BMI and AM biomass were higher downstream  of the AD2
discharge than upstream.

     At the ADI study site (Southside 39 Drain), sand content was higher upstream of the
discharge than downstream, whereas silt and clay content was higher downstream of the
discharge than upstream.  Average sediment nitrogen and phosphorus content for the 5 sampling
months was higher downstream of the ADI discharge than upstream. Similarly, all trace
elements but Na had higher average concentrations downstream of the ADI discharge than
upstream.  Average BMI density and AM biomass were higher downstream of the ADI
discharge than upstream.  No differences were apparent when comparing BMI biomass and BMI
richness between the ADI control and deposition zones.
     At the CS study site (Crystal Springs hatchery), sand content was higher upstream of the
discharge than downstream, whereas silt and clay content was higher downstream of the
discharge than upstream.  Average sediment nitrogen and phosphorus content for the 5 sampling
months was higher downstream of the CS discharge than upstream. Similarly, all 17 other trace
elements had higher average concentrations downstream of the CS discharge than upstream.
Average BMI density, BMI biomass, and AM biomass were higher downstream of the CS
discharge than upstream.  Average BMI richness upstream of the CS discharge was identical to
average BMI richness downstream of the CS discharge.
     At the RV study site (Rim View hatchery), sand content was higher upstream of the
discharge than downstream, whereas silt and clay content was higher downstream of the
discharge than upstream.  Average sediment nitrogen and phosphorus content for the 5 sampling
months was higher downstream of the RV discharge than upstream.  Similarly, all trace elements
but Na and Mn had higher average concentrations downstream of the ADI discharge than
upstream.  Average  BMI density, BMI biomass, and AM biomass were higher downstream of
the RV discharge than upstream. Average BMI richness was higher upstream of the RV
discharge than downstream.
     At the BC study site (Box Canyon hatchery), sand content was higher upstream of the
discharge than downstream, whereas silt and clay content was higher downstream of the
discharge than upstream.  Average sediment nitrogen for the 5 sampling months was higher
upstream of the BC  discharge than downstream, whereas average sediment phosphorus was
higher downstream of the BC discharge than upstream.  Trace element concentrations between
the BC control and deposition zones showed variable trends depending on the element. Average
concentrations of C, Ca, Mg, K, Mn, Fe, Pb, Cd, Ba, Ni, Be, and Mo were higher upstream of the

BC discharge than downstream, whereas average concentrations of Na, Zn, Cu, S, Cr, and Co
were higher downstream of the BC discharge than upstream.  Average BMI density and BMI
biomass were higher upstream of the BC discharge than downstream, whereas average BMI
richness and AM biomass were higher downstream of the BC discharge than upstream.

IMPLICATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
     The intent of our 2001 middle Snake River study was not to compare the magnitude of
different industry effluents but instead to assess the condition of sediment and benthic biota
downstream of industry effluents. Regardless of effluent magnitude, comparing the benthic
environment upstream and downstream of individual discharges provides a more clear
understanding of the relationship between an impact and the potential source of the impact.
Understanding the relationship between a discharge and its ecological impact on the benthic
environment will provide opportunities to measure the success of point source management by
measuring changes in the benthic environment. Validation of point source discharge
management decisions with benthic impact analysis will allow managers to relate positive
ecological changes to changes in industry practices (i.e. best management practices).
     Results of this 2001  middle Snake River benthic study will play an important role in
assessing effluent impacts on the five ESA threatened and endangered snails found in the study
reach.  Valvata utahensis was the only listed snail species encountered during our 2001 study.
The small V. utahensis population was sampled in the deposition zone directly downstream of
Box Canyon hatchery and was found in no other locations during the five-month study.  V.
utahensis presence downstream of the Box Canyon aquaculture facility indicates it's tolerance of
the benthic environment associated with the Box Canyon deposition zone (i.e. dense aquatic
macrophytes, organically enriched sediments).
     Future benthic research in middle Snake River basin could include the comparison of
aquaculture deposition zones (treatment) with deposition zones downstream of unaltered spring
discharges (control). However, comparisons should only be made if the compared zones are
located in geomorphically similar river reaches (e.g. Box  Canyon hatchery and Box Canyon
springs).

                                                                                    141
A. In-Field SOP

       A. 1. Current Meter (University of Idaho, Aquatic Ecology Lab,
           standard protocol)
              1.  Use a Marsh-McBirney water current meter.
              2.  Take current readings at each dredge location prior to dredging.
              3.  Attach electrode to aluminum rod.
              4.  Place rod in water so that the large part of electrode is facing into the current.
              5.  Turn meter on and take flow readings in ft/sec within 20 cm of substrate
              6.  Record on data sheet

       A.2. Secchi Disk (University of Idaho, Aquatic Ecology Lab,
           standard protocol)
              1.  Use a standard 20cm secchi disk.
              1.  Sufficient weight should be added so that the line will remain
                 vertical in the water.
              3.  Remove sunglasses.
              4.  Lower the disk on the shady side of the boat.
              5.  Record the depth - in meters - at which the disk disappears from
                 sight.
        6. Lower the disk further and then raise slowly.
     7.  Record the depth at which the disk reappears.

       A.3. GPS (University of Idaho, Aquatic Ecology Lab,
           standard protocol)
              1.  Use a Trimble GeoExplorer II or GeoExplorer III GPS unit.
              2.  Plug battery pack into bottom of unit so green light appears.
              3.  Push on/off button.
              4.  When Main menu comes up, choose Data Capture.
              5.  When Data Capture menu comes up, choose Open Rov. File.
              6.  Allow 100 satellite readings to occur.
              7.  Once 100 readings have been taken, choose Close File.
              8.  When asked  if you want to close file, choose Yes.
              9.  Push on/off button for 5 seconds to turn off.
              10. Unplug battery pack to conserve power.
              11. Upon return to laboratory, download files.

       A.4. Dredging (University of Idaho, Aquatic Ecology Lab,
           standard protocol)
              1.  Use a stainless steel petite Ponar Dredge
              2.  At each sampling location be sure the boat is securely anchored.
              3.  Open the dredge and place the set pin. Lower the dredge into the water at a
                 slow and steady rate to ensure that the dredge remains upright in the water
                 column.
              4.  Once the dredge reaches the substrate, release the set pin by releasing

-------
                                                                                    142
                 the tension in the rope. Activate the dredge by pulling up on the rope and
                 continue to pull at a constant rate until the dredge can be lifted from the water
                 and gently placed in the boat.
             5.  Before opening dredge, evaluate for degree of disturbance, penetration depth,
                 and amount of leakage. If the grab is unacceptable, repeat steps 3-5.
             6.  If dredge is acceptable, proceed with sediment, benthic macroinvertebrate, and
                 aquatic macrophyte sampling processing.

       A.5. Redox Probe (University of Idaho, Aquatic Ecology Lab,
           standard protocol)
             1.  Use an Orion combination redox electrode with an Orion Research meter,
                 model SA 210.
             2.  Calibrate before any readings are taken (refer to manual).
             3.  Remove cap from probe surface, rinse the probe with de-ionized water and
                 dry with a chem-wipe.
             4.  Carefully push probe 5 centimeters into sediment.
             5.  Turn meter on and start the stopwatch.
             6.  Record reading each minute, for 10 consecutive minutes, as long as there is at
                 least a 2 mV change from one minute to the next.
             7.  Once readings are taken,  rinse probe with de-ionized water and dry with a
                 chem-wipe.
             8.  Place cap back on probe surface and store in a dry place out of the sun until
                 next use.

       A.6. Temperature Probe (University of Idaho, Aquatic Ecology Lab,
           standard protocol)
             1.  Use a temp/pH electrode  with BNC connector attached to an Orion model SA
                 720 meter.
             2.  Wash probe with de-ionized water and dry with a Chem-wipe.
             3.  Carefully push probe 5 centimeters into the sediment.
             4.  Turn meter on and start the stopwatch.
             5.  Record reading at 5 minutes.

          dried (30 - 40° C), ground, and sieved (2 mm sieve) soil into 4000 mL
          nalgene cups.
       B. Pretreat soil if necessary. (See "Interferences" below.)
       C. Add approximately 200 to 250 mL distilled water.
       D. Add 5 mL 5% sodium hexametaphosphate.
       E. Stir and allow to set a minimum of 15 minutes.

          minutes for all other soils.
       G. Transfer soil into hydrometer cylinder.
       H. Place hydrometer into cylinder and make to proper
          volume with distilled water: 1205 mL for sandy soils,
          1130 mL for all other soils.

-------
                                                                      144
6.  Interferences
       A. The dispersion process is the single most important step
          and the dispersion is dependent on the paddle. Therefore the paddle
          should be replaced as soon as it shows sings of wear.
       B. The hexametaphosphate loses its dispersing efficiency
          after 1 month; make it fresh every time for best results.
       C. Organic matter (< 4-5%) may cause erroneous.readings.
           If the sample warrants removal of organic matter, do the following:
              1.  Add 100 mL of sodium hypochlorite (household
                 bleach) to 50 g of soil in a beaker.
             2.  Steam heat for  15 minutes.
             3.  Let soil settle, decant.
             4.  Wash into  hydrometer cup.
             5.  If a fine-textured soil (clay) is suspected, add 5 mL
                 of sodium hexametaphosphate.
                 Continue the normal procedure from this step.
       D. If the soil will not disperse, add additional sodium
          hexametaphosphate.
       E.  If the soil is salt-affected and flocculates because of too
          much sodium, vacuum filter and wash the soil with IN
          NaCl after letting it set overnight  in IN NaCl. Wash the
          soil off the filter with water into the hydrometer
          cylinder.  Proceed normally.
       F. It is now accepted that calcium carbonate removal
          disrupts particle size estimation more than helps it, so unless
          requested, do not remove CaCO3.

7.  Sample Analysis
       A. Remove hydrometer and stir sample thoroughly.
       B. Start stopwatch immediately after stirring is completed,
          replace hydrometer, and read scale at exactly 40 seconds. Note
          beginning time. (When stopwatch is first started.  See steps E and F
          below).
       C. Remove hydrometer, clean and dry.
       D. Record temperature of suspension in degrees F.
       E. Allow suspension to settle undisturbed for 2 hours from
          starting point noted in step B.
       F. Replace hydrometer carefully and record reading.
       G. Record a second temperature in degrees F.

       Notes:
       A. When doing several samples, note beginning time and
          allow a certain period of time to elapse between each
          sample. (Allow enough  time to record temperature,
          reading, and stir the next sample.) Then at the end of
          two hours, read each sample that same time period

-------
                                                                      145
           apart.
       B.  The settling process is temperature dependent, so the
           analysis should be done in as constant a temperature
           area as is available.

8. Calculations
       A.  Temperature correction:
               1. For each degree above 68°F, add 0.2 units to the
                  reading.
             2.  For each degree below 68°F, subtract 0.2 units from the
                 reading.
       B.  %Sand:
             g of soil weighed - corrected 40 sec. reading * = g sand settled
              g sand settled     AA   0/     ,
             —	 x  100 = % sand
             g soil weighed
             The hydrometer is calibrated in grams of soil in suspension at the
             time the reading is taken.  It only takes 40 sec. for the sands to
             settle out and leave the silt and clay in suspension.
       C.  %Clay:
             corrected 2 hrreading    ....     _.  ,
             	 x 100  = % clay
                 g soil weighed
       D.  %Silt:
             100% - % sand - % clay = % silt

9. Quality Control and Reference Material
       The accepted limits are two standard deviations from the averages of our
       in house references for particle size distribution.

10: Documentation Requirements
        The in house reference material results are recorded on the PSD QC
        sheet and the PSD benchsheet. The sample PSD values are recorded
          onto the PSD benchsheet. The PSD benchsheet can be found at
         P:\bench\inorgan\soil\psdbench.xls and the PSD QC sheet can be
                   found at P:\qcsheets\inorgan\soil\soiltext.xls.

5.  Blank Correction

       A. Before the analysis of samples, 6 blank weigh boats are
          analyzed to determine the background carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur
          levels present in the combustion gases and the CNS system.
       B. Add six blanks to the weight list by selecting the blanks ID code from
          the analyze menu. The manual weight icon will allow the operator to
          change the weight, 0.2g is used as a blank weight and is the default
          weight. The sample ID and weight can be repeatedly entered into the
          weight table by pressing the enter key.
       C. After the six blank analyses have been completed, touch the calibrate
          menu, touch the blanks icon and select "Carbon, Sulfur, and
          Nitrogen" from the pop-up window. Touch the t or the I key to
          move the cursor and locate the blanks just analyzed. Touch the
          "Include Results" to highlight the six blanks. Touch "Process
          Results" to calculate new blank values for carbon, nitrogen, and
          sulfur.
6.  Sample Preparation

       A.  Solid Samples

             1. Dry plant and soil samples in the drying ovens located in room
                #7.
             2. Grind samples.
             3. Weigh sample into weigh boats, approximately 100 mg for
                plants, 200 mg for standards and soil samples.  Weigh boats are
                recycled after CNS analysis. Boats are scraped out with a
                spatula and stored in a dessicator located in the inorganic
                laboratory.
             4. Record the UIASL Sample Number, and sample weight on the
                bench sheet.
             5. Duplicate every tenth sample.
             6. The autoloader tray contains 49 spaces for weigh boats: 5 for
                standards and references and 44 for samples.
             7. When weigh boats are placed in the autoloader, carefully move
                weigh boats to disperse sample material throughout the bottom
                of the weigh boat. Sample material should be distributed
                evenly on the bottom of the boats to facilitate complete
                combustion. The weigh boats are placed with the round end
                facing towards the front to the autosampler.  (The front of the
                autosampler is labeled "FRONT" with permanent marker.)

-------
                                                                      150
       B.  Liquid Samples
             1.  Use "Corn-Aid for solids" for all liquid samples.
             2.  Before analyzing liquids, the weigh boats must be lined with an
                 aluminum liner that can be purchased from  LECO®.
7.  Sample Analysis

       A.  To record sample identification and weights to be analyzed, touch the
          "Analyze" menu icon. Sample identifications and weights are added
          by touching the Login-sample window. A keyboard window will
          pop-up and the sample identification can be entered.  The manual
          weight icon is then selected and a numerical keypad is displayed for
          entry of the sample weight.
       B.  Sulfamethazine, EDTA, references, and blanks already have
          identification codes assigned to them.  To add one of these samples to
          the weight list, touch the ID code icon. Select the appropriate
          standard or reference from the alphabetical list. Exit the ID-code
          window, and change the weight using the manual  weight icon.
       C.  All samples are analyzed in the order they are placed in the sample
          weights list.
       D.  After sample Identification's, weights, references  and
          Sulfamethazine are recorded in the weight list. Touch the analyze
          icon. The autoloader window will appear and the cursor can be
          moved to the first position of the auto loader and the analysis will
          start.

8.  Sample Weight List

       A.  From the reports menu, touch "Sample Weights" to view, modify, or
          print the list of samples, standards, and references entered and ready
          for analysis. Sulfamethazine will have a STANDARD designation in
          the third column of the ID code column.
       B.  A standard ID code must be used in order to use the results for
          calibration. Check the weight list to confirm that Sulfamethazine is
          specified as a standard in the run list.
9.  Drift Correction

       A.  Drift correction should be performed on a daily basis. The calibration
          of the instrument was performed during the manufacturing process,
          unless the CNS was serviced or major  parts have been changed - only
          drift correction is necessary. Drift correction is used to compensate
          for changes in the analyzer's environment that takes place during
          normal operation.
       B.  Touch "Drift Correction" from the Calibrate menu. Then select
          "Carbon, Sulfur, and Nitrogen" from the pop-up window. Touch the
          T or the -I key to move the cursor, once the appropriate

-------
                                                                     151
          sulfamethazine standards have been located for that particular run,
          touch the "Include Results" key to highlight.
      C.  Touch the "Process Results" key to calculate the new calibration
          values.

10.  Result Recalculation
      A.  The results are reprocessed with the new calibration values. From the
          Calibrate menu, touch the "Recalculate Results". Select "Carbon,
          Sulfur, and Nitrogen" from the pop-up window.  Touch "Include
          Results" to highlight the samples that need to be recalculated. Touch
          "Process Results" to have the results recalculated and printed out.

11.  Quality Control and Reference Material
      A.  QCData
             1.  Fill out QC data sheets for sulfamethazine and reference
                samples.
             2.  House reference material: grass, soil, and oil.  If results are
                within 2 standard deviations of in-house averages of all
                elements, analysis has passed QC.
      B.  Quality Assurance
             1.  All quality control samples, duplicates, etc. are recorded on the
                QC report.

12.  Safety and Health
      A.  Reagents are strongly basic, use appropriate techniques.
      B.  Consult MSDS file for information on reagents.

A representative 1 g to 2 g (wet weight) sample of sludge or waste or LOO g (dry weight) of soil
is digested in nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide at 150 C. The digestate is then refluxed at 150 C
•with hydrochloric acid, filtered if necessary and analyzed for Al, Ba, Be, Ca, Cd, Cr, Co, Cu, Fe,
Mg, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, K, Na, S, P, and Zn by ICPES. A separate sample can be dried for a total
solids determination of sludges and other wastes.
Interferences:
Sludge samples can contain diverse matrix types, each of which may present its own analytical
challenge. Spiked samples and any relevant standard reference material should be processed to
aid in determining whether Method 3050 is applicable to a given waste.

5.  Sample Preparation and Analysis
              A.  Sample Collection, Preservation, and Handling
             1.  All samples must have been collected using a
                sampling plan that addresses the considerations
                discussed in
      chapter 9 of EPA Test Methods.
             2.  All sample containers and glassware used in the
                analysis must be prewashed with detergents, acids and Type II
                water. The 75 mL digestion tubes should be washed, acid
                rinsed and acid refluxed. (See SOP 30.300.10.) Plastic and
                glass containers are both suitable for sample collection and
                storage.

             3. Nonaqeuous samples shall be refrigerated in the cold room
                upon receipt and analyzed as soon as possible.  Soil samples
                should be dried at 40°C for at least 8 hours and then ground
                and passed through a 20 mesh screen.  Samples that have been
                digested should be stored in the cold room at 4°C.

       B.  Procedure
             1. Sample Preparation
                    a.  Mix the sample thoroughly to achieve
                       homogeneity. For each digestion procedure, weigh to
                       the nearest 0.003 g and transfer to a digestion tube a
                       1.00-g to 2.00-g portion of sample. (1.00 g of oven
                       dried and ground soil).
                    b.  Add 7.5 mL of HNO3, mix the slurry, and place the
                       tube in the digester block. Heat the sample to 150°C
                       and reflux until NC>2 (brown-orange) flames are no
                       longer evolving from the digestion tubes. Note:
                       Samples with high organic matter should sit overnight
                       (covered) before heating.
                    c.  After digestion has been completed, slowly add 1 mL of
                       30% H2O2-  Care must be taken to ensure that losses do
                       not occur due to excessively vigorous effervescence.
                    d.  Continue to add 30% H2O2 in  1-mL aliquots with
                       warming until the effervescence is minimal or until the
                       general sample appearance is unchanged. NOTE: Do
                       not add more than a total of 7.5 mL 30% H2O2-
                    e.  If the sample is being prepared for the ICP analysis
                       of Al, Ba, Be, Ca, Cd, Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Pb, Mg, Mn, Mo,
                       Ni, K, Na,S,P, and Zn, add 7.5  mL of concentrated HC1,
                       return the digestion tubes to the heating block and
                       reflux for an additional 2 hours. After cooling, dilute to
                       75 mL with 18 MOhm water and invert to mix.
                       Particulates in the digestate that may clog the nebulizer
                       should be removed by filtration, by centrifugation or by
                       allowing the sample to settle.
                    f.  Filtration: Filter through Whatman No. 934-AH Glass
                       Microfibre filters (or equivalent).
                    g.  The diluted sample has an approximate acid
                       concentration of 10.0% (v/v) HNC>3 and 10.0% (v/v)
                       HC1. The sample is now ready  for analysis by optical
                       emission ICP spectroscopy.

6.  Calculations
       A.  The  concentrations determined for soils are on a dry v/eight basis
          since the samples have been dried and ground.

                                                                       156
       B. The concentrations determined for sludges and other waste materials
          are to be reported on the basis of the actual weight of the sample. If a
          dry weight analysis is desired, then the percent solids of the sample
          must also be provided.
       C. If percent solids is desired, a separate determination of percent solids
          must be performed on a homogeneous aliquot of the sample.
       D. All numbers output by the ICP will have been adjusted for weight and
          dilutions by the software.

7. Quality Control and Reference  Material
       A. Quality Control to be used
              1.  For each group of samples processed, preparation
                 blanks (reagents) should be carried throughout the
                 entire sample preparation and analytical process.
                 These blanks will be useful in determining if
                 samples are being contaminated.
             2.  Duplicate samples should be processed on a
                 routine basis. Duplicate samples will be used to determine
                 precision. The sample load will dictate the frequency, but 10%
                 is recommended.
             3.  Spiked samples  or standard reference materials
                 must be employed to determine accuracy. A spike sample
                 should be included with each group of samples processed and
                 whenever a new sample matrix is being analyzed. Standard
                 reference materials and in house QC should be included. SRM
                 2704 Buffalo River Sediment,SRM 2709 San Joaquin Baseline
                 reference, SRM  2710 Montana Soil Highly Elevated, SRM
                 2711 Montana Soil Moderately Elevated are recommended for
                 soils digests and other appropriate SRM materials should be
                 selected which correspond to the matrix of the samples
                 digested.
             4.  The concentration of all calibration standards should be
                 verified against a quality control check sample obtained from
                 an outside source.
             5.  Quarterly QC charts can be found for the 3050 method at
                 P:\qccharts\inorg\soils\icp\3050\*.

8. Documentation Requirements
       Instrument calibrations for 3050 screen are recorded in the ICP log book
       which is located next to the ICP in the ICP room. The reference material
       results are recorded on the 3050 QC sheet and are also on the ICP print
       out. The sample 3050 values are printed on the ICP print out. The 3050
       bench sheet can be found at P:\bench\inorg\soil\3050.xls and the 3050 QC
       sheet can be found at P:\qcreport\soil\3050.doc.

                 digestion.
             C.  Acids are very corrosive.
             D.  Hydrogen Peroxide is a very strong oxidizing agent and
                 is very reactive when first added to the sample tubes.

SEDIMENT STABLE ISOTOPE ANALYSIS

                                                                                      161





BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE




       Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in atomic mass (specifically, number




of neutrons). Stable carbon (13C/12C) and nitrogen (I5N/I4N) isotope ratios have been used as




indicators of paleoproductivity (Schelske and Hodell 1991; Schelske and Hodell 1995), primary




production in lentic environments (Gu et al. 1996; Owen et al. 1999), fish migration (Kline et al.




1998), and food web relationships or food sources (Hesslein et al. 1991).  Stable isotope ratios




can be very useful in labeling biological material due to the natural isotope gradients that exist in




nature (Kline et al. 1998).




       Of particular interest is the use of stable isotope ratios to separate biological material




from terrestrial and marine origins. Stable isotopes can be used to differentiate marine-derived




nutrients from terrestrial nutrients because heavier isotopes (13C and 15N) are more common in




marine environments.  Winter et al. (2000) described the use of stable isotopes in assessing the




effects of anadromous salmonids on the incorporation of marine-derived nutrients to rivers and




streams.  Nutrients from anadromous  salmonids are marine-derived, allowing their contribution




to be traced within the terrestrial environment. Many aquaculture operations in the middle Snake




River utilize marine-derived nutrients in their food resources. As a result, heavier isotopes of




carbon and nitrogen (marine-derived), transported to the river in aquaculture discharges, could




provide a stable isotope ratio that is distinguishable from agricultural (terrestrially-derived)




carbon and nitrogen.




      Ratios of stable isotopes are often expressed relative to international standards (air for




nitrogen and Peedee belemnite limestone (PDB) for carbon) and are reported in standard delta




notation. For example, carbon stable  isotope ratios are reported using the following expression:

       Our purpose in using stable isotope ratios in the middle Snake River study was twofold.



First, we wanted to determine whether distinct isotope signatures were evident between sediment



organic matter sampled upstream and sediment organic matter sampled downstream of industry



discharges (agriculture and aquaculture separately). Second, we wanted to determine whether



distinct signatures were evident between sediment organic matter sampled downstream of



aquaculture discharges and sediment organic matter sampled downstream of agriculture



discharges. If distinguishable differences were found, stable isotopes might be used to assess the



organic contribution of each industry to the middle Snake River.








METHODS



       Sediment sampled upstream and downstream of six discharges to the middle Snake River



(three agriculture, three aquaculture) in 2000 and 2001 were processed at the University of Idaho



Stable Isotope Laboratory using an Elemental Analyzer online with a Delta Plus Isotope Ratio



mass spectrometer.  Only sediment containing greater than 0.04 % nitrogen could be processed



due to laboratory equipment requirements.  Processed data in raw form are shown in Tables 23



and 24 for 2000 and 2001, respectively.



       First, deposition zone sediments below industry discharges were compared to control



zone sediments of industry discharges (agriculture and aquaculture kept separate). Processed



carbon isotope ratios (513C) of each sample were plotted against the respective nitrogen isotope



ratios (515N) of each sample. Resulting relationships were analyzed for distinct signatures, or



groups of plotted points based on zone of sampling (control vs. deposition).

                                                                                     163





       Second, deposition zone sediments of agriculture discharges were compared to deposition




zone sediments of aquaculture discharges by plotting processed carbon isotope ratios (813C) of




each sample against their respective nitrogen isotope ratios (515N).  Resulting relationships were




analyzed for distinct signatures, or groups of plotted points, based on industry type (agriculture




or aquaculture).









RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS




    Distinct signatures, or distinct groups of plotted points, were not apparent when comparing




control zone sediment to deposition zone sediment for either industry in 2000 (Figures 66 and




67) or 2001 (Figures 68 and 69). Distinct signatures, or groups of plotted points, were not




apparent when comparing deposition zone sediment of agriculture discharges to deposition zone




sediment of aquaculture discharges in 2000 or 2001 (Figures 70 and 71).




    We conclude that carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios of middle Snake River sediment




were similar upstream and downstream of the six discharges.

SEDIMENT




Particle Size




% Sand




     Control zone sand content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but October.  Therefore, deposition zone sand




content of agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within June, July, August,




and September. These comparisons showed that sand content was greater in agriculture




deposition zones than aquaculture deposition zones in June, July, August, and September (Figure




7).  However, statistically significant differences between the sand content of agriculture




deposition zones and aquaculture deposition zones only occurred in September (77.2 % at




agriculture sites and 66.6 % at aquaculture sites).




     Sands dominated the bottom sediments both upstream and downstream of the discharges at




all six study sites and over all five sampling months of 2001, averaging 43-95 % of the total




dredged sediments (Figure 8). Sand content in the deposition zones of the three agriculture




drains showed little change over all five sampling months, averaging 81, 88, and 65 % for ADS,




AD2, and ADI, respectively. Sand content was generally lower in the deposition zones of the




three aquaculture discharges, averaging 69, 66, and 80 % for CS, RV, and BC, respectively, than




the deposition zones of the agriculture drains (averages shown above).




     A trend in sand content over all agriculture study sites was not evident throughout the




study period.  Sand content was significantly greater in the deposition zone of AD2 than in the




control zone in all months but October.  At ADI sand content was significantly greater in the




control zone than the deposition zone in all five sampling months. Similarly, an overall trend in




sand content at aquaculture sites was not evident. While CS and RV both had significantly

                                                                                      176






greater sand content in control zones than deposition zones for four of the five sampling months,




BC had significantly greater sand content in deposition zones for four of five months.




% Silt




    Control zone silt content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but October. Therefore, deposition zone silt




content of agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within June, July, August,




and September. These comparisons showed that silt content was greater in aquaculture




deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June, July, August, and September (Figure




9).  However, statistically significant differences between the silt content of agriculture




deposition zones and aquaculture deposition zones only occurred in June (20.7 % at agriculture




sites and 27.7 % at aquaculture sites) and  September (21.0 % and 30.9 % at aquaculture sites).




      Silts were the next dominant particle size of middle Snake River in 2001, averaging 4-48




% of the'total dredged sediment (Figure 10).  Silt content of the deposition zone sediments




within each of the three  agriculture study  sites was very similar over all five sampling months,




averaging 17,11, and 33 % for AD3, AD2, and ADI, respectively. Silt content of the deposition




sediments within  each of the three aquaculture study sites was also consistent throughout all




sampling months, averaging 30, 31, and 17 % for CS, RV, and BC, respectively. Like the sand




content results,  there were not distinct similarities in silt content for the three agriculture study




sites or for the three aquaculture study sites.  ADI had significantly greater silt content in




deposition zones than control zones for all months while AD2 had significantly greater silt




content in control zones than deposition zones for four of five months.

                                                                                     177






%Clav




    Control zone clay content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was not




statistically different within each of the five sampling months. Therefore, deposition zone clay




content of agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within the five sampling months.




These comparisons showed that clay content was significantly greater in aquaculture deposition




zones than agriculture deposition zones in both July (1.7 % at agriculture sites and 2.4 % at




aquaculture sites) and October (1.5 % at agriculture sites and 2.2 % at aquaculture sites) (Figure




11).




    Clays were the least dominant sediment type sampled in the middle Snake River in 2001,




averaging 0.5-5.0 % of the total dredged sediment (Figure 12).  Clay content of ADS, AD2, and




ADI deposition zones averaged 2.0,0.9, and 2.4 %, respectively compared to clay content of CS,




RV, and BC deposition zones of 1.5,2.6, and 2.0 %, respectively.  Clay content in the AD2




control zone was significantly greater than clay content in the AD2 deposition zone for four of




five months.  AD2 was the only agriculture site where significant trends in clay content were




consistently apparent. CS and RV had significantly greater clay content in deposition zones than




control zones in two of five months, whereas BC had significantly  greater clay content in the




control zone than the deposition zone in four of five months.




Percent Carbon and Nitrogen




% Carbon




    Control zone carbon content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within June alone. Therefore, control vs. deposition carbon content of




agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within this single month.  This




comparison showed that carbon content was significantly greater in aquaculture deposition zones

-------
                                                                                     178





than agriculture deposition zones in June (1.2 % at agriculture sites and 2.3 % at aquaculture




sites) (Figure 13).   •




      Sediment sampled from the six study sites in the middle Snake River averaged 0.7-3.1 %




carbon throughout the five sampling months in 2001 (Figure 14).  ADI was the only agriculture




study site that showed significant trends in carbon content of the sediment. Sediment sampled




from the ADI deposition zone had significantly greater carbon content than the ADI control




zone for all five months sampled. Sediment carbon in the deposition zone was significantly




greater than sediment carbon in the control zone in four of five months at CS and in three of five




months at RV. On the other hand, sediment carbon in the control zone was significantly greater




than sediment carbon in the deposition zone in three of five months at BC.




% Nitrogen




    Control zone nitrogen content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within June and August.  Therefore, deposition zone nitrogen content of




agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within these two months.  These




comparisons showed that nitrogen content was significantly greater in aquaculture deposition




zones than agriculture deposition zones in both June (0.05 % at agriculture sites and 0.17 % at




aquaculture sites) and August (0.01 % at agriculture sites and 0.06 % at aquaculture sites)




(Figure 15).




    Nitrogen content of middle Snake River sediment at the six study sites in 2001 averaged




0.01-0.25 % throughout the five sampling months (Figure 16). The overall trend for all sites




indicated that nitrogen content of the river sediment was highest in June and gradually decreased




to annual lows in October. ADI was the only agriculture site that showed a significantly greater




amount of nitrogen in the deposition zone sediments than in the control zone sediments. Even

-------
                                                                                     179






then, this significant trend was only apparent from the June and July ADI samples.  On the other




hand, sediment sampled from the control zone had a significantly greater amount of nitrogen




than deposition zone sediment in two of five sampling months from both AD2 and ADS.




Significantly greater amounts of sediment nitrogen were found in aquaculture deposition zones




for two of three sites.  CS and RV each had significantly greater sediment nitrogen in deposition




zone dredges for three of five sampling months. However, BC showed a significantly greater




amount of sediment nitrogen in the control zone for June and no significant differences in




sediment nitrogen between control and deposition zones for the remaining four months.




Chemical Trace Elements




Calcium




      Control zone calcium content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within June, July, and September. Therefore, deposition zone calcium




content of agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within June, July, and




September.  These comparisons showed that calcium content was significantly greater in




aquaculture  deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones for June (24,708 ug-g"1 at




agriculture sites and 35,375 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites),  July (25,708 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites




and 33,783 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites), and September (24,750 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and




35,000 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites) (Figure  17).




      Calcium content of the bottom sediments in the six study sites of the middle Snake River




in 2001 averaged 13,250-45,875 ug-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 18).  There




were no consistent trends between the three agriculture sites.  However within the agriculture




sites, trends  were apparent. At AD3, sediment calcium content was significantly greater in the




control zone than the deposition zone for the first three of the five sampling months. Calcium

-------
                                                                                    180





content was significantly greater in the AD2 control zone than the AD2 deposition zone in June




and July but was significantly greater in the deposition zone in August and October. The




deposition zone of ADI had significantly greater calcium content than the control zone of ADI




for all five sampling months. Sediment calcium content trends differed for each of the three




aquaculture sites as well.  Calcium content was significantly greater in CS deposition zone than




CS control zone for all sampling months but August. Calcium content was significantly greater




in the RV deposition zone than the RV control zone for June and July but then reversed to




greater calcium content in the control zone in October. Calcium content was significantly




greater in the BC control zone than the BC deposition zone for all sampling months but




September.




Magnesium




    Control zone magnesium content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites




was statistically similar within each sampling month but July.  Therefore, deposition zone




magnesium content of agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June, August,




September, and October. These comparisons showed that magnesium content was significantly




greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in September alone




(5,096 jtig-g"1 at agriculture sites and 6,188  (ig-g"1 at aquaculture sites) (Figure 19).




     Magnesium content of the six study sites in the middle Snake River from 2001 averaged




2625-16500 ng-g"1 throughout the five study months (Figure 20). The highest magnesium




contents were found in the control zone of ADS in July (16500 ng-g"1) and September (13500




Hg-g'1). The ADS control zone had significantly greater amounts of magnesium than the ADS




deposition zone in all five sampling months. AD2 showed the same magnesium content trend

deposition zone than the control zone for August and October.  ADI had a significantly greater




amount of magnesium in the deposition zone than the control zone for all five sampling months.




Magnesium content was significantly greater in CS deposition zone than CS control zone for all




sampling months but August.  Magnesium content was significantly greater in the RV deposition




zone than the RV control zone in June but then reversed to greater magnesium content in the




control zone in September and October.  Magnesium content was significantly greater in the BC




control zone than the BC deposition zone for June  and October.




Potassium




    Control zone potassium content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites




was statistically similar within each sampling month but July. Therefore, deposition zone




potassium content of agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June, August,




September, and October.  These comparisons showed that potassium content was significantly




greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in September alone




(2,254 ng-g"1 at agriculture sites and 2,738 ng-g"1 at aquaculture sites) (Figure 21).




      Potassium content of dredged middle Snake  River sediment at the six sampling sites in




2001 averaged 1053-3.775 ng-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 22). The AD3




control zone had significantly greater amounts of potassium than the AD3 deposition zone in




June, July, and August. AD2 showed the same potassium content trend for June, July, and




September but then switched to a significantly greater amount of potassium in the deposition




zone than the control zone for October.  ADI had a significantly greater amount of potassium in




the deposition zone than the control zone for all five sampling months. Potassium content was




significantly greater in CS deposition zone than CS control zone for all sampling months but




August. Potassium content was significantly greater in the RV deposition zone  than the RV

-------
                                                                                     182





control zone in June, August, and October. The opposite trend occurred at BC, with significantly




greater potassium content in the BC control zone than the BC deposition zone for June, August,




and October.




Sodium




    Control zone sodium content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within June and October. Therefore, deposition zone sodium content of




agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within June and October. These




comparisons showed that sodium content was greater in aquaculture deposition zones than




agriculture deposition zones for both June (439.2 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and 465 ug-g"1 at




aquaculture sites) and October (481.4 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and 507.1 ug-g'1 at aquaculture




sites) (Figure 23). However, this difference was not significant in either month.




     Sodium content of the dredged middle Snake River sediment was fairly stable (i.e. didn't




change over time) over all study sites throughout the five month sampling period, averaging 318-




790ug-g"' (Figure 24).  However, extremely high sodium content was observed in July  (2875




ug-g"1) and September (2825 ug-g"1) in the AD3 control zone.  These values cannot be excluded




as processing errors because all four replicates shared high values.  The sodium content in the




AD3 control zone was significantly greater than the AD3 deposition zone for all months but




October. Results from  AD2 showed this same trend in July but was reversed in August, with the




deposition zone sediments having significantly greater sodium content than the control zone




sediments. ADI had significantly greater sodium content in the deposition zone than the control




zone in July but had significantly greater sodium content in the control zone than the deposition




zone in August.  The only consistent trends in sodium content from aquaculture sites were at CS.

-------
                                                                                      183






This study site had significantly higher sodium content in the deposition zone than the control




zone for all sampling months but August.




Zinc




      Control zone zinc content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but July. Therefore, deposition zone zinc




content of agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June, August, September,




and October. These comparisons showed that zinc content was significantly greater in




aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June (39.0 jjg-g"1 at agriculture




sites and 59.4 ng-g"1 at aquaculture sites), August (42.2 jig-g"1 at agriculture sites and 58.6 ng-g"1




at aquaculture sites), September (44.4 ng-g"1 at agriculture sites and 66.7 ng-g"1 at aquaculture




sites), and October (44.8  fig-g"1 at agriculture sites and 57.0 ^g-g"1 at aquaculture sites) (Figure




25).




      Mean zinc content of dredged material from the middle Snake River in 2001 ranged from




29-76 ng-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 26). Zinc content was significantly




greater in the ADS control zone.than the ADS deposition zone for all sampling months but




October.  AD2 sediment followed the same trend through June and July but then had no




significant differences in  sediment zinc content between control and deposition zones for




August, September, and October. ADI had greater zinc content in the deposition zone than the




control zone for all sampling months, but this difference was significant in only June and




September. At all aquaculture study sites deposition zone zinc content was significantly greater




than control zone zinc content for at least one sampling month (Figure 26). RV sediment had




significantly greater zinc  content in June, July, and August, CS in June and July, and BC in July




only.

                                                                                    184






Manganese




    Control zone manganese content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites




was statistically similar within each sampling mo'nth but July and October. Therefore, deposition




zone manganese content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within




June, August, and September. These comparisons showed that there were no significant




differences in manganese content between agriculture deposition zones and aquaculture




deposition zones in June, August, or September (Figure 27).




     Manganese content in dredged sediment of the six study sites in the middle Snake River in




2001 averaged 113-485 ^g-g"1 throughout the five months (Figure 28). The highest manganese




content, as with sodium, occurred in the ADS control zone sediments sampled in July (485 ng-g~




') and September (425 ug-g"1). The ADS control zone sediments had significantly greater




manganese content than ADS deposition zone sediments in all months but October. AD2




showed the same results for June, July, and September but had significantly greater manganese




content in the deposition zone in October. ADI sediment was significantly greater in manganese




content in the deposition zone than the control zone for all five sampling months. Overall, the




BC control zone had the greatest manganese content of any aquaculture control or deposition




zone. CS had significantly greater manganese content in its deposition zone than its control zone




for July, August, and September. RV sediment had mixed results. Manganese content was




significantly greater in the RV deposition zone than the RV control zone for June but then




became greater in the RV control zone in September and October. Manganese content remained




greater in the BC control zone than the BC deposition zone for the entire five month period, but




was significantly greater in the control zone in June and August only.

Copper




      Control zone copper content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but July. Therefore, deposition zone copper




content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June, August,




September, and October. These comparisons showed that copper content was significantly




greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June (11.2 ug-g"1 at




agriculture sites and 17.1 ug-g"1  at aquaculture sites), August (11.5 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and




15.6 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites), September (14.0 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and 23.5 ug-g"1 at




aquaculture sites), and October (12.7 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and 16.5 ug-g"1 at aquaculture




sites) (Figure 29).




      Copper content of dredged sediment from the middle Snake River in 2001 averaged 7.5-




33.0 ug-g"1 throughout the  five sampling months (Figure 30). Copper content was significantly




greater in the ADS control  zone than the AD3 deposition zone in all  sampling months but




October. AD2 followed the same trend  for June and July but then showed no significant




difference between control and deposition zone copper content for August, September, and




October. ADI sediment had the opposite trend has the AD3 sediment.  ADI copper content was




significantly greater in the  deposition zone than the control zone  for  all  sampling months but




October. Copper content was greater in CS deposition zone sediments than CS control zone




sediments for all months.  However, this difference was only significant for June, July, and




October. Copper content in RV sediments followed this same trend  but only had significantly




greater amounts of copper  in the deposition zone for June and July.  BC control zone sediments




had significantly greater copper content  than BC deposition zone sediments for June only. Other

-------
                                                                                    186





BC sampling months had higher copper content in the deposition zone but none of these




differences were significant.




Iron




     Control zone iron content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but July and August. Therefore, deposition zone




iron content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June,




September, and October. These comparisons showed that iron content was greater in




aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June, September, and October




(Figure 31). However, this difference was only significant in September (11,266.7 ug-g"1 at




agriculture sites and 12,820.3 ug-g'1 at aquaculture sites).




     Iron content of dredged sediment from the middle Snake River in 2001 averaged 7075-




32,250 ug-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 32).  This range is very large due to




high sediment iron content for the AD3 control zone in July (32,250 ug-g"1) and September




(30,000 ug-g"1). AD3 control zones had significantly greater iron content than AD3 deposition




zones in all sampling months but October. AD2 sediment iron content followed this same trend




for June, July, and September. However, ADI deposition zone sediments had significantly




greater iron content than ADI control zone sediments in all months but August. CS iron content




followed the same trend as ADI, with significantly greater amounts in deposition zones for all




sampling months but August. This trend was repeated for RV sediments sampled in June and




August. However, RV control zone sediments had significantly  greater iron content than RV




deposition zone sediments in October. The only significant difference found between the BC




control and deposition zones were in June. The June control zone sediments had significantly




greater iron content than June deposition zone sediments.

Phosphorus




      Control zone phosphorus content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites




was statistically similar within all sampling months but July and August. Therefore, deposition




zone phosphorus content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within




June, September, and October. These comparisons showed that phosphorus content was




significantly greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June




(655.0 |ig-g"' at agriculture sites and 1541.7 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites), September (730.8 ug-g"1




at agriculture sites and 1483.3 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites), and October (683.3 ug-g"1 at




agriculture sites and 1154.2 ug-g'1 at aquaculture sites) (Figure 33).




      Phosphorus content of dredged sediment from the study sites in the middle Snake River in




2001 averaged 490-1800 ug-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 34). AD3 control




zone sediments had significantly greater phosphorus content than AD3 deposition zone




sediments in all five sampling months. AD2 followed this same trend  in June and July but then




switched to significantly greater phosphorus content in deposition zone sediments in August and




October. ADI deposition zone sediments had significantly greater phosphorus content than ADI




control zone sediments in all months but August. A very distinct trend was evident when




comparing sediment phosphorus content between control and deposition zones of the three




aquaculture study sites. Phosphorus content was significantly greater in deposition zone




sediments than control zone sediments throughout the five sampling months for all three




aquaculture study sites. Not only were these phosphorus differences significant, but the




aquaculture deposition zone phosphorus levels (averaging 903 - 1800  p.g-g"') were often over




twice as high as control zone phosphorus levels (averaging 490 - 1000 u^-g"1) from the same

                                                                                      188





month and study site, and over twice as high as deposition zone phosphorus levels from




agriculture study sites (averaging 785 - 815 ng-g"1).




Sulfur




    Control zone sulfur content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but August and October. Therefore, deposition




zone sulfur content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within




June, July, and September.  These comparisons showed that sulfur content was significantly




greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June (776.7ng-g"' at




agriculture sites and 2125 u^-g'1 at aquaculture sites), July (867.1  ug-g"1  at agriculture sites and




2082.6 ug-g'1 at aquaculture sites), and September (918.8  ug-g'1 at agriculture sites and 2320.8




ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites) (Figure 35).




Sulfur content of dredged sediment from the six study sites in the  middle Snake River in 2001




averaged 643-2950 ug-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 36).  Sulfur content of




AD3 control zone sediments was significantly greater than AD3 deposition zone sediments for




all sampling months but October. AD2 sediments followed this same trend for the first four




sampling months, but switched to significantly greater sulfur content in the deposition zone




sediments than the control zone sediments in October. The only significant difference between




the sulfur contents of the ADI control and deposition zones were  found in June.  Sediments




sampled from ADI in June had significantly greater sulfur content in the control zone sediments.




Significantly greater sulfur content was found in the deposition zones of all three aquaculture




study sites that were sampled. Sulfur-content of the deposition zone was greater than the control




zone in all sampling months but August at CS, in all sampling months but October at RV, and in

-------
                                                                                    189






July, September, and October at BC. However, sulfur content was significantly greater in the




BC control zone than the BC deposition zone in June.




Lead




    Control zone lead content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but July and August.  Therefore, deposition zone




lead content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within June,




September, and October. These comparisons showed that lead content was significantly greater




in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June (18.8 ug-g"1 at




agriculture sites and 22.2 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites) and September (23.2 ug-g"1 at agriculture




sites and 31.3 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites) (Figure 37).




     Lead content of dredged sediment from the six study sites in the middle Snake River in




2001 averaged 14.5-50.75 ug-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 38). The highest




sediment lead content was sampled from all replicates of the AD3 control zone in July (50.75




ug-g"1) and September (49.5 ug-g"1).  Lead content of AD3 control zone sediments was




significantly greater than deposition zone sediments in all sampling months but October.  The




same results were found in July sediments sampled from AD2. However, lead content of ADI




deposition zone sediments was greater than ADI control zone sediments in all sampled months.




These differences at ADI were only significant in June, August, and September.  Significantly




greater lead content was found in deposition zone sediments than  was found in control zone




sediments at CS (June  and September) and RV (June and July). However, BC control zone




sediments had significantly greater lead content than BC deposition zone sediments in June.

Chromium




      Control zone chromium content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites




was statistically similar within all sampling months but July. Therefore, deposition zone




chromium content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June,




August, September, and October. These comparisons showed that chromium content was




significantly greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June




(17.5  ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and 25.7 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites), August (19.75 ug-g"1 at




agriculture sites and 28.5 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites), September (22.0 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites




and 27.9 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites), and October (20.2 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and 26.2 ug-g"1




at aquaculture sites) (Figure 39).




      Chromium content of dredged sediment from the six study sites in the middle Snake River




in 2001 averaged 12.5-67.75 ug-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 40). As with




many of the previous elements, the highest sediment chromium content was sampled from all




replicates of the ADS control zone in July (67.75 ug-g"1) and September (57.25 ug-g"1).




Chromium content of ADS control zone sediments was significantly greater than ADS deposition




zone sediments for all five sampling months. AD2 sediments followed this same trend in June,




July, and September,  but had significantly greater chromium content in the deposition zone




sediments than the control zone sediments for the other two sampling months (August and




October).  ADI had significantly greater chromium content in its deposition zone sediment than




its control zone sediment for all sampling months but August. Significantly greater chromium




content was found in  the deposition zones of all three aquaculture study sites that were sampled.




Chromium content of the deposition zone was greater than the control zone in all sampling




months but August at CS, in June and July at RV, and in all sampling months at BC. However,

-------
                                                                                    191






chromium content was significantly greater in the RV control zone than the RV deposition zone




in October.




Cadmium




    Control zone cadmium content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but July. Therefore, deposition zone cadmium




content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June, August,




September, and October. These comparisons showed that cadmium content was greater in




aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in all four months (Figure 19).




However, this difference was only significant in June (0.63 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and 0.99




ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites) and September (0.97 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and 1.25 ug-g"1  at




aquaculture sites).




     Cadmium content of dredged sediment from the six study sites in the middle Snake River




in 2001 averaged 0.44-3.55 ug-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 42). Cadmium




content of AD3 control zone sediments was significantly greater than deposition zone sediments




in all sampling months but October. Cadmium content of AD2 control zone sediments was also




significantly greater than deposition zone sediments in July. However, cadmium content was




significantly greater in ADI deposition zone sediments than ADI control zone sediments in July,




August, and September.  Sediment from the aquaculture study sites had mixed cadmium results




as well. Cadmium content of CS deposition zones was significantly greater than CS control




zones in June, September, and  October.  Cadmium content of RV deposition zones was




significantly greater than RV control zones in June and July.  Alternately, cadmium content was




significantly greater in BC control zone sediment than BC deposition zone sediment for June.




Barium

                                                                                    192





    Control zone barium content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but July and October.  Therefore, deposition




zone barium content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June,




August, and September.  These comparisons showed that barium content was greater in




aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in all three months (Figure 43).




However, deposition zone differences between industries were significant in June alone (85.4




Hg-g"1 at agriculture sites and 96.5 ng-g"1 at aquaculture sites).




     Barium content of dredged sediment from the six study sites in the middle Snake River in




2001 averaged 60.5-250.0 ng-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 44).  The highest




sediment barium content was the mean ADS control in July (235 (ig-g"1) and in September (250




ug-g"1). Barium content was significantly greater in AD3 control zone sediments than AD3




deposition zone sediments within each sampling month but October. The same trend was found




in AD2 sediment from June, July, and September. However, barium content was significantly




greater in ADI deposition zone sediments than ADI control zone sediments in each month but




August. Barium content was also significantly greater in CS deposition zone sediments than CS




control zone sediments for all months but August. RV sediments followed this same trend for




June but BC sediments had significantly greater barium content in its control zone than its




deposition zone for June and August




Nickel




    Control zone nickel  content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture  sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but July. Therefore, deposition zone nickel




content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June, August,




September, and October. These comparisons showed that nickel content was greater in

-------
                                                                                     193






aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in all four months (Figure 45).




However, deposition zone differences between industries were only significant in June (13.3




ug-g"1 at agriculture sites and 14.8 ug-g'1 at aquaculture sites), September (13.9 ug-g"1 at




agriculture sites and 15.7  ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites), and October (13.6 ug-g"1 at agriculture sites




and 15.0 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites).




     Nickel content of dredged sediment from the six study sites in the middle Snake River in




2001 averaged 8.95-43.75 u^-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 46). Nickel




content of AD3 control zone sediments significantly exceeded that of deposition zone sediments




in all five sampling months.  AD2 results for sediment sampled in July and September were




similar to AD3 results.  However, nickel content of AD2 deposition zone sediments was




significantly greater than AD2 control zone sediments for August and October.  ADI sediments




sampled from the deposition zone also had significantly greater levels of nickel than the ADI




control zone sediments. These results at ADI were consistent for all five sampling months. CS




followed the same trend as ADI, with significantly greater nickel content in the deposition zone




sediments than the control zone sediments, in all sampling months but August. RV sediments




followed this same pattern in June and July but had significantly greater nickel content in control




zone sediment than deposition zone sediment in September.  June nickel content in the BC




control zone sediments was also significantly greater than nickel content of the BC deposition




zone sediments from the same month.




Cobalt




    Control zone cobalt content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but July and August. Therefore, deposition zone




cobalt content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within June,

-------
                                                                                     194






September, and October.  These comparisons showed that cobalt content was greater in




aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in all three months (Figure 47).




However, deposition zone differences between industries were significant in September alone




(8.4 p.g-g"1 at agriculture sites and 9.8 ug-g"1 at aquaculture sites).




     Cobalt content of dredged sediment from the six study sites in the middle Snake River in




2001 averaged 6.3-26.0 jig-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 48). High values




were once again evident in AD3 control zone replicates from July (26 ng-g"1) and September




(22.75  ug-g"1). Not only was cobalt content significantly greater in ADS control zone sediments




in July and September, but it was also significantly greater in control zone sediments in the other




three sampling months as well. AD2 sediments followed the same trend in July but had




significantly greater cobalt content in deposition zone sediments than control zone sediments in




August and October. Cobalt content was greater in ADI deposition zone sediments than ADI




control zone sediments in all five sampling months, but this difference was significant in June,




July, and September only. Mixed trends in cobalt content were evident from sediment sampled




at aquaculture study sites.  While cobalt content was significantly greater in the CS deposition




zone sediments than the CS control zone sediments in July, September, and October, it was




significantly greater in the CS control zone in August.  Cobalt content was significantly greater




in the RV deposition zone sediments than the RV control zone sediments in June and July, but




was significantly greater in the RV control zone sediments in October. In June, cobalt levels




were significantly greater in the BC control zone than the deposition zone.  However, cobalt




levels were significantly greater in the BC deposition zone in July and August.

Beryllium




    Control zone beryllium content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within each sampling month but July. Therefore, deposition zone beryllium




content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June, August,




September, and October. These comparisons showed that beryllium content was significantly




greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June (0.45 ^g-g"1  at




agriculture sites and 0.51 ng-g"1 at aquaculture sites) (Figure 49).




      Beryllium content of dredged sediment from the six study sites in the middle Snake River




in 2001 averaged 0.29-0.87 ng-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 50). The highest




sediment beryllium content (0.87 ug-g"1) was sampled from the control zone of BC in June.




Beryllium content was greater in ADS control zone sediments than AD3 deposition zone




sediments in all five sampling months.  However, this difference was significant in June, July,




and August only. Beryllium content was also significantly greater in AD2 control zones than




AD2 deposition zones in June and July. Alternatively,  ADI deposition zone sediments had




significantly greater beryllium levels than ADI control zones in all sampling months but




October.  This same trend occurred in all sampling months but August at CS, and in June, July,




and August at RV. The opposite trend was evident at BC, where the control zone sediments had




significantly greater beryllium levels than the deposition zone sediments in June and October.




Molybdenum




    Control zone molybdenum content between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites




was statistically similar within each sampling month but July.  Therefore, deposition zone




molybdenum content between agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June,




August, September, and October. These comparisons showed that molybdenum content was

                                                                                   196





greater in agriculture deposition zones than aquaculture deposition zones in June, August, and




October (Figure 51). However, deposition zone differences between industries were only




significant in October (6.1 ng-g"1 at agriculture sites and 5.4 jig-g"1 at aquaculture sites).




Molybdenum content of dredged sediment from the six study sites in the middle Snake River in




2001 averaged 4.35-14.25 ^g-g"1 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 52).




Molybdenum content was significantly greater in ADS control zone sediments than AD3




deposition zone sediments in all sampling months but October. This same trend occurred in




AD2 sediments sampled from July. However, AD2 deposition zone sediments had significantly



greater molybdenum content than control zone sediments in October. September was the only




sampling month where significant differences occurred between ADI control and ADI




deposition zone sediments. In this case, ADI  deposition zone sediments had significantly




greater molybdenum levels than the control zone sediments. No significant differences in




molybdenum content were found between the CS control and CS deposition zone sediments.



Likewise, no significant differences in molybdenum content were found between the RV control



and RV deposition zone sediments. Molybdenum content of the BC control zone sediments was



significantly greater than the BC deposition zone sediments in June.  No other significant




differences occurred in the molybdenum content of sediments sampled from the control and



deposition zones of BC.








Benthic Macroinvertebrates




Benthic Macroinvertebrate Abundance



     Control zone BMI abundance between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was



statistically similar within each sampling month but July and September. Therefore, deposition

zone BMI abundance between agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within




June, August, and October.  These comparisons showed that BMI abundance was significantly




greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition zones in June (6,834




individuals-m"2 at agriculture sites and 84,365 individuals-m"2 at aquaculture sites), August




(1,263 individuals-m"2 at agriculture sites and 10,119 individuals-m"2 at aquaculture sites), and




October (2,075 individuals-m"2 at agriculture sites and 17,607 individuals-m"2 at aquaculture




sites) (Figure 53).




BMI abundance in the three agriculture study sites (average of control and deposition zones) in




2001 averaged 844-12,239 individuals-m"2 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 54).




BMI abundance in the three aquaculture study sites (average of control and deposition zones) in




2001 averaged 1178-231,222 individuals-m"2 throughout the five sampling months. BMI




abundance was greater at aquaculture study sites than agriculture study sites throughout the five




sampling months. BMI abundance was significantly greater in the AD3 control zone than the




AD3 deposition zone in June alone. No other significant differences in BMI abundance occurred




between the control and deposition zones throughout the remaining sampling months at AD3.




Likewise, no significant differences were found in BMI abundance between the control and




deposition zones of AD2, or the control and deposition zones of ADI for all five sampling




months. BMI were significantly more abundant in the CS deposition zone than the CS control




zone in October alone. This trend also occurred in the RV study site in June, July, and October.




The BC study site had a greater abundance of BMI in the control zone than the deposition zone




in June and August.




Potamopyrsus antivodarum

-------
                                                                                      198





    Control zone P. antipodantm abundance was statistically similar between pooled agriculture




and pooled aquaculture sites within each sampling month but July and September. Therefore,




deposition zone P. antipodarum abundance in agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be




compared within June, August, and October. These comparisons showed that P. antipodarum




abundance was significantly greater in aquaculture deposition zones than agriculture deposition




zones in June (13.0 individuals-m"2 at agriculture sites and 70,880 individuals-m"2 at aquaculture




sites), August (61.1 individuals-m"2  at agriculture sites and 5,822 individuals-m"2 at aquaculture




sites), and October (28.2 individuals-m"2 at agriculture sites and 13,291 individuals-m"2 at




aquaculture sites) (Figure 55).




       P.  antipodarum abundance in the three agriculture study sites in 2001 averaged 0-692




individuals-m"2 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 56). P. antipodarum abundance in




the three aquaculture study sites in 2001 averaged 11-211,278 individuals-m"2 throughout the five




sampling months. There were no significant differences in P. antipodarum abundance between




the control and deposition zone of AD3  throughout the five sampling months. P. antipodarum




abundance was significantly greater in the AD2 deposition zone (averaging 111 individuals-m"2)




than the AD2 control zone (averaging 0.0 individuals-m"2) in August alone. Conversely, P.




antipodarum abundance was significantly greater in the ADI control zone than the ADI




deposition zone in June (60.3 individuals-m"2 in control zone and 0.0 individuals-m"2 in




deposition zone) and July (77.8 individuals-m"2 in control zone and 5.6 individuals-m"2 in




deposition zone). Although P. antipodarum were more abundant in the CS deposition zone




(ranging 22.2-2,106.9 individuals-m"2) than the CS control zone (ranging 11.1-122.2




individuals-m"2) in all five sampling months, this difference wasn't significant for any of the




months. The RV study site had a significantly greater abundance of P. antipodarum in the

-------
                                                                                   199






deposition zone than the control zone in all five sampling months. However, the BC study site




had a significantly greater abundance of P. antipodarwn in the control zone than the deposition




zone in all sampling months but September and October.   Chironomidae spp.




    Control zone Chironomidae abundance between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture




sites was statistically similar within each sampling month but July and October.  Therefore,




deposition zone Chironomidae abundance between agriculture and aquaculture sites could only




be compared within June, August, and September. These comparisons showed that




Chironomidae abundance was significantly greater in agriculture deposition zones than




aquaculture deposition zones in June (2,119 individuals-m"2 at agriculture sites and 616




individuals-m"2 at aquaculture sites) (Figure 57).




    Chironomidae abundance was greatest in June and July across all sampling sites (Figure 58).




Chironomidae abundance in the three agriculture study sites in 2001 averaged 33.3-3100.0




individuals-m"2 throughout the five sampling months. Chironomidae abundance in the three




aquaculture study sites in 2001 averaged 0-4006.6 individuals-m"2 throughout the five sampling




months. Chironomidae abundance was significantly greater in the AD3 control zone than the




AD3 deposition zone in July. However, AD3 deposition zones had significantly greater




Chironomidae abundance than AD3 control zones in August and September. Chironomidae




abundance at AD2 showed a similar trend, with significantly greater Chironomidae numbers in




the control zone in July but significantly greater Chironomidae numbers in the deposition zone in




September. Chironomidae abundance was significantly greater in the ADI deposition zone than




the ADI control zone in June and October. Mixed trends in Chironomidae abundance were




found at the aquaculture study sites. Chironomidae were significantly more abundant in the CS




control zone than the CS deposition zone in June,  but reversed to a significantly greater

                                                                                    200





abundance in the CS deposition zone in July and August.  The RV study site had a significantly




greater abundance of Chironomidae in the control zone than the deposition zone in June, July,




and September, but then reversed to significantly greater Chironomidae abundance in the RV




deposition zone in October. BC study site had a significantly greater abundance of




Chironomidae in the deposition zone than the control zone in all sampling months but June and




August.




Benthic Macroinvertebrate Biomass




    Control zone BMI biomass between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar within August and October. Therefore, deposition zone BMI biomass




between agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within August and October.




These comparisons showed that BMI biomass was significantly greater in aquaculture deposition




zones than agriculture deposition zones in August (1.01 g-m"2 at agriculture sites and 13.88 g-m"2




at aquaculture sites) and October (1.44 g-m"2 at agriculture sites and 12.73 g-m"2 at aquaculture




sites) (Figure 59).




     BMI biomass in the three agriculture study sites in 2001 averaged 0.38-14.40 g-m"2




throughout the five sampling months (Figure 60). BMI biomass in the three aquaculture study




sites in 2001 averaged 0.97-287.08 g-m"2 throughout the five sampling months. BMI biomass




was greater at aquaculture study sites than agriculture study sites throughout the five sampling




months.




     BMI biomass was significantly greater in the AD3 control zone than the AD3 deposition




zone in June. This trend also occurred at the ADI study site in July. However, the AD2




deposition zone had greater BMI biomass than the AD2 control zone in October. BMI biomass




was greater in the deposition zones of CS and RV than the corresponding control zones for the

-------
                                                                                     201






entire five month sampling period. At CS this difference was not statistically significant in any




of the sampling months. However, this difference was significant in all months but September at




RV. The opposite trend occurred at BC.  BMI biomass was significantly greater in the BC




control zone than the BC deposition zone in June, August, and October.




Benthic Macroinvertebrate Taxa Richness




    Control zone BMI taxa richness between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites




was statistically similar in all five sampling months. Therefore, deposition zone BMI taxa




richness in agriculture and aquaculture sites could be compared within June, July, August,




September, and October. These comparisons showed that BMI taxa richness was significantly




greater in aquaculture deposition zones than  agriculture deposition zones in June (3.8 at




agriculture sites and 6.0 at aquaculture sites), July (3.8 at agriculture sites and 6.4 at aquaculture




sites), August (3.7 at agriculture sites and 5.7 at aquaculture sites), September (5.0 at agriculture




sites and 7.0 at aquaculture sites), and October (3.8 at agriculture sites and 4.9 at aquaculture




sites) (Figure 61).




     The number of distinct BMI taxa sampled in the three agriculture study sites in 2001




averaged 2.5-6.25 throughout the five sampling months (Figure 62). The number of distinct




BMI taxa sampled in the three aquaculture study sites in 2001 averaged 1.25-10.25 throughout




the five sampling months. The highest BMI taxa richness values were sampled in the control




zone of the RV study site. The only significant difference in BMI taxa richness between




sampled agriculture control zones and deposition zones was found at the AD3 study site.  In this




case, BMI taxa richness was greater in the ADS control zone than the AD3 deposition zone in




June and August. No significant differences were found between CS control zone BMI taxa




richness and CS deposition zone BMI taxa richness for any of the five sampling months.  RV had

-------
                                                                                    202





significantly greater BMI taxa richness values in the control zone than the deposition zone for




both June and September. Conversely, BC had greater BMI taxa richness values in the




deposition zone than the control zone for all five sampling months. This difference between




BMI taxa richness values was found to be statistically significant in July, September, and




October.









Aquatic Macrophytes




Aquatic Macrophyte Biomass




      Control zone AM biomass between pooled agriculture and pooled aquaculture sites was




statistically similar in July and September. Therefore, deposition zone AM biomass in



agriculture and aquaculture sites could only be compared within July and September. These



comparisons showed that AM biomass was significantly greater in aquaculture deposition zones




than agriculture deposition zones in July (0.64 g-m"2 at agriculture  sites and 83.80 g-m"2 at




aquaculture sites) and September (10.13 g-m"2 at agriculture sites and 49.55 g-m"2 at aquaculture




sites) (Figure 63).




      AM biomass in the three agriculture study sites in 2001 averaged 0-36.4 g-m"2 throughout




the five sampling months (Figure 64). AM biomass in the three aquaculture study sites in 2001




averaged 0-325.3 g-m"2 throughout the five sampling months.  The highest AM biomass values




(averaging 325.3 g-m"2) of all six study sites occurred in the deposition zone of RV during the




month of June.  The only significant difference between agriculture control and deposition zone



AM biomass occurred in July at AD2. At this study site, AM biomass was significantly greater



in the control zone than the deposition zone.  AM biomass was greater in CS deposition zones



than CS control zones in all five sampling months.  However, this difference was not significant

-------
                                                                                   203






in any of the sampling months. RV deposition zones had significantly greater AM biomass than




RV control zones in July and October. The same result occurred at the BC study site in




September.
