INTRODUCTION
The Oklahoma Water Resources Board requested in May
1963, that the U. S. Public Health Service, under its
pollution control studies of the Arkansas and Red River,
investigate the possibility of the proposed Navajo
Reservoir being polluted from natural sources of salt
water. Of prime concern was determining the suitability
of the proposed reservoir for municipal and industrial
water supply, if the major sources of salt water could
be controlled.
Through a series of reorganizations in the Federal
water pollution control program, responsibility for
this study was transferred eventually to the Water Quality
Office of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
During the preparation of this report the Navajo Reservoir
project was made inactive and is not expected to be reac-
tivated in the foreseeable future.
-------
Purpose of Investigation
North Fork Red River and Elm Fork of North Fork are
the two principal streams within the drainage area of the
proposed Navajo Reservoir. Their flow is sustained in
part by salt springs and salt water seepage that signifi-
cantly affect the quality of both streams. The purpose
of the report is to present the findings of a water qual-
ity investigation of the principal sources of natural
brines in the Elm Fork and North Fork basins and to esti-
mate the water quality of the proposed Navajo Reservoir
if the major sources of salt water on these tributary
streams could be controlled.
Area of Investigatior.
The proposed site of the Navajo Reservoir is located
in southwestern Oklahoma on the lower reach of the North
Fork Red River. Covering parts of Kiowa County and Jackson
County, the reservoir would impound waters of the North
Fork and its major tributary, Elm Fork. In addition, the
reservoir would receive waters from minor streams, such
as Elk Creek, from surface runoff and groundwater seepage
-------
3
from adjacent land and from direct preciptation. The
proposed reservoir site and the basins of the North Fork
and Elm Fork are shown in Figure 1.
The area of investigation extends along the North
Fork from Lake Altus to Sampling Station 490 and along Elm
Fork from near Bull Creek to its confluence with the North
Fork. Particular emphasis was placed on Elm Fork in Area
VI, so designated by the Corps of Engineers in the course
of their investigation of natural salt pollution in the
Arkansas-Red River basins.
Sources of Data
The basic data presented as part of this study were
obtained from reports and records of the U. S. Public
Health Service, the U. S, Geological Survey and from field
investigations by the Federal Water Pollution Control Ad-
ministration (FWPCA), a predecessor agency of the EPA.
Consisting of water analyses and strearaflow measurements.
these data, in part, span a period ranging from July 1960
Through September 1967.
The U. S. Public Health Service initiated an inten-
sive saline water investigation in the Arkansas-Red River
basins in 1960. A network of water quality monitoring
station was established of which three station were
located in the North Fork and Elm Fork basins. Streamflow

measurements were required as part of this U. S. Public
Health Service investigation and wherever possible, the
water quality monitoring stations were located at existing
U. S. Geological Survey streamflow gaging stations.
The FWPCA, in continuing the original U. S. Public
Health Service investigation, conducted a reconnaissance
field survey to determine where additional water quality
monitoring stations should be located in the study area.
On the basis of this field survey two stations (Stations 4
and 5) were established on Elm Fork. Temporary continuous
streamflow gaging stations were installed at these stations
and operated, under contract, by the U. S. Geological Survey.

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
Findings on the sources of chloride and sulfate
brines in the watershed of the Navajo Reservoir, and con-
clusions regarding the estimated quality of the reservoir
and its suitability as a source of water supply are pre-
sented in t,he paragraphs that follow.
Sources of Natural Brines
1. Chloride brines in the drainage area above the
Navajo Reservoir occur predominently in Area VI.
An average chloride loading of 322 tons per day
is discharged from Area VI. This loading con-
stitutes 72 percent of the average total daily
chloride loading of the North Fork near the pro-
posed reservoir site (Sampling Station 490).
2. Sulfate brines are distributed generally through-
out the drainage area above the Navajo Reservoir.
An average sulfate loading of 12 tons per day is
discharged from Area VI. This loading constitutes
4 percent of the average total daily sulfate
loading of the North Fork near the proposed reser-
voir site (Sampling Station 490).
-------

3. The flow-weighted average chloride and sulfate
concentrations of the North Fork Red River at
Sampling Station 490 were 655 mg/1 and 455 mg/1,
respectively, for the seven year period of field
investigations.
4. Calculations indicate the evaporation from the
reservoir will cause large increases in the
mineral concentration of the impounded water.
Estimated Quality of the
Proposed Navajo Reservoir
la. The cumulative average chloride concentration
of the Navajo Reservoir, without control of
brine discharges from Area VI, is estimated at
1,270 mg/1.
Ib. With 80 percent control of brine discharges
from Area VI, the cumulative average chloride
concentration of the reservoir is estimated at
540 mg/1.
Ic. With 100 percent control of brine discharges
from Area VI, the cumulative average chloride
concentration of the reservoir is estimated at
355 mg/1.
-------
2a. The cumulative average sulfate concentration
of the Navajo Reservoir, without control of
brine discharges from Area VI, is estimated at
760 mg/1.
2b. With 80 percent control of brine discharges
from Area VI, the cumulative average sulfate
concentration of the reservoir is estimated at
735 mg/1.
2c. With 100 percent control of brine discharges
from Area VI, the cumulative average sulfate
concentration of the reservoir is estimated at
730 mg/1.
Suitability of the Navajo Reservoir as a
Source of Water Supply
Municipal Supply
The estimated chloride concentrations of the reser-
voir with 80 percent control of Area VI, preclude its
use for municipal water supply.
The estimated sulfate concentrations of the reser-
voir, with 80 percent control of Area VI, preclude its
use for municipal water supply.
-------
9
Industrial Supply
The estimated cumulative average chloride concentra-
tions of the Navajo Reservoir, with 80 percent control of
Area VI, are within the quality limits for process water
used in the petroleum industry, for boiler makeup water
and for those industries where brackish water can be used
as cooling water in once-through systems and in the makeup
recycle. The estimated chloride concentrations exceed
the maximum for process water in the pulp and paper indus-
try. For process water used in primary metals industry
and for fresh cooling water in the once-through system and
in the makeup water, the reservoir is of marginal quality.
However, the cumulative averages do not reflect the large
fluctuations in quality that frequently exceed the maximum
limits of these water uses. Although periods of satisfac-
tory reservoir quality do occur, these periods are temporary.
The reliability of the reservoir quality is low. Standard
deviations, based upon the yearly average concentrations for
the three sets of 50-year projected reservoir use, are 135
mg/1 for chloride and 185 mg/1 for sulfate under 80 percent
control of Area VI. As a source of industrial supply, the
Navajo Reservoir is definitely unsuitable for a number of
industries, is inherently inadequate for those having
maximum limits of chloride concentrations that are near the
cumulative average in the reservoir, and is suitable only
for boiler makeup water and for brackish cooling water.
-------
10
The estimated cumulative average sulfate concentra-
tions of the Navajo Reservoir, without control, or with 80
percent control of Area VI, are within the maximum limits
for boiler makeup water and for those industries where
brackish water can be used for cooling in once-through
systems and in the makeup recycle, and in process water in
some chemical industries. The estimated sulfate concen-
trations exceed the maximums for fresh cooling water and
for process water in the petroleum industry.
Agricultural Supply - Livestock Watering
Without control of Area VI the estimated chloride
concentrations in the reservoir are generally less than
the maximum recommended for livestock watering.
With 80 percent control of the estimated chloride dis-
charges from Area VI the reservoir quality is suitable for
livestock watering.
Under conditions of no control to 100 percent control
of Area VI, estimated sulfate concentrations in the reser-
voir are generally less than the maximum recommended for
livestock watering.
-------
1J
Agricultural Supply - Irrigation
Without control of Area VI the reservoir would have
a very high sodium hazard and an extremely high salinity
hazard making it unsuitable as a source of irrigation water.
With 80 percent control of Area VI the reservoir
would have a medium sodium hazard and a very high salinity
hazard making it unsuitable as a source of irrigation water.

GEOLOGY
The natural quality of surface and groundwater is
largely determined by geologic factors. Such factors
include the types of rock underlying the region, the
mineral composition of these rocks, their vertical and
lateral sequence and extent, the size and distribution
of their interconnected void spaces, regional and local
structures, and the topographic relief developed upon
the land surface.
The occurrence, distribution and chemical composition
of the natural brines in the JJorth Fork and Elm Fork
basins are also largely determined by local and
regional geologic factors. Principal among these are the
sequence of rock layering (stratigraphy), the attitude of
these rocks (structure) and the distribution of salt,
gypsum, and anhydrite beds within and beyond the area of
investigation.
Stratigraphy and Structure
The study area is underlain by rocks that range in
age from Precambrian to Quaternary and includes such
-------
13
diverse rock types as granite, shale, siltstone, sandstone,
dolomite, gypsum, anhydrite, sodium-chloride salt, gravel,
sand, silt and clay. Regarding the occurrence of salt
springs and salt water seepage within the basins, it is
the sedimentary sequence of interbedded layers of Permian
shale, siltstone, sandstone, dolomite, salt, gypsum and
anhydrite that is the ultimate source of the natural
brines that pollute Elm Fork and North Fork. Although
the Quaternary alluvium is thought to contain mostly
brackish or saline water, the water quality is determined
predominantly by the inflow of saline river water and
seepage from the bedrock upon which the alluvium is
deposited.
The stratigraphic sequence of the Permian rocks in
and near the North Fork and Elm Fork basins varies in a
relatively moderate degree from one location to another
and with depth below land surface. However, despite the
differences, the rocks are similar in general appearance
and lithology over a large area of western Oklahoma and
north central Texas. Where these rocks crop out they con-
sist of red and gray gypsiferous shale, siltstone, and
fine-grained sandstone containing thick beds of gypsum
(CaS0^.2H20) and anhydrite (CaSO,), Most Permian rock
units contain deposits of rock salt (NaCl).
-------
14
In Table 1 is a general description of the individual
Permian rock units underlying southwestern Oklahoma. Based
on a compilation by the U. S. Public Health Service, these
units are listed in descending order and each unit crops
out at one location or another within the North Fork and
Elm Fork basins. Where each unit forms the land surface,
the overlying Permian rock units are consequently absent.
Major structural features affecting the Permian rocks
in and near the North Fork and Elm Fork drainage basins are
the Anadarko depositional basin and the Wichita Mountains
uplift. The Anadarko basin trends northwestward through
west central and northern Oklahoma and is deepest adjacent
to the Wichita Mountains uplift in the North Fork basin.
The Permian rock units slope toward the axis of this struc-
tural depression. The occurrence of salt springs and
saline groundwater may be affected more by topography and
the mineral composition of the rocks than the structural
features.
Salt Depos its
Permian rock salt in the North Fork and Elm Fork basins
occurs as massive layers, thin lenticular beds and dis-
seminated particles. The massive layers commonly range in

thickness from 100 to 200 feet, but generally occur at
depths of more than 500 feet below land surface. These
layers are not extensive and form salt zones consisting
of isolated or interfingering layers that occur more
abundantly than other rock types within the zone. Thin,
lenticular beds occur uncommonly at depths less than 500
feet below land surface. Disseminated particles of rock
salt are thought to occur throughout much of the Permian
rock sequence, except near land surface where leaching
has largely removed the rock salt.
Gypsum and Anhydrite
Gypsum and anhydrite occur throughtout much of the
upper part of the Permian rock sequence of the North Fork
and Elm Fork basins. Of the eight Permian rock units
that crop out in the area of investigation, the Elaine
Gypsum and the Flowerpot Shale comprise the largest and
most extensive beds of gypsum and anhydrite in the basin.
The Blaine Gypsum consists mainly of white, massive
gypsum beds interbedded with red gypsiferous shale.
Locally the gypsum beds are underlain by thin dolomite.
The solvent action of water has developed numerous solution
-------
18
cavities such as sinkholes and caves. Where the Elaine
Gypsum is not exposed to direct weathering and erosion but
is covered by overlying rock, the Elaine Gypsum consists
principally of dense anhydrite of low permeability.
The Flowerpot Shale consists principally of red and
gray gypsiferous shale containing rock salt in the sub-
surface. This unit characteristically has numerous thin
intersecting veins of selenite (clear transparent gypsum).
The overall permeability of the Flowerpot Shale varies
markedly within short distances.
-------

HYDROLOGY
Precipitation
The ultimate source of water for impoundment in the
proposed Navajo Reservoir is precipitation. Occurring
principally as rain and snow, the average annual precipita-
tion in the North Fork and Elm Fork basins is approximately
25 inches of which 24 inches are rain and 1 inch is snow
(in water equivalency). Rainwater and snowmelt are dis-
persed by surface runoff, percolation into soil and rock,
evaporation and transpiration.
Surface Runoff
The dispersal of rainfall and melt water as surface
runoff results in rock particles being carried in solution
or suspension into ditches, creeks, rivers, ponds, lakes,
impoundments and other natural or manmade water bodies.
These substances affect the quality of the receiving waters.
Prolonged leaching of soil and bedrock has resulted in the
removal of rock salt from the upper part of the exposed
bedrock. As a result, shallow groundwater in the upland
areas of the basins is potable. Leaching of gypsum and
-------
20
anhydrite beds in the outcrop areas of the Elaine Gypsum,
in particular, has developed innumerable solution openings
including sinkholes, and enlarged fracture openings per-
mitting the storage and movement of groundwater. Thus,
the solvent effect of rainwater acting upon the exposed
rock has increased groundwater recharge of the units af-
fected.
Groundwater Movement
The direction of groundwater movement in the zone of
saturation is in response to the influence of gravity.
During the process of groundwater replenishment, rainfall,
snowmelt and influent seepage from surface water bodies
percolate into soil and rock. Movement of groundwater is
from areas of recharge to areas of discharge. Water
level contour maps indicate the configuration of the water
table of unconfined groundwater or the pressure surface
of an artesian system. Theoretically groundwater moves
at right angles to the contour lines from higher to lower
elevations.
Rates of groundwater movement depend on the permeability
of the rock units containing the water and the gradient of
-------
21
the water table or artesian pressure surface. Where rocks
are more permeable, the movement of water is comparatively
free, although the rate of movement is very slow in com-
parison to the flow of streams.
The void spaces in soil and rock ultimately control
the underground movement of water. In the Permian units
that contribute water to the streams of the North Fork
basin, the voids in the Blaine Gypsum, for example, con-
sist of solution channels, sinkholes and small cave-like
openings. The permeability is comparatively high in this
rock unit. In the Flowerpot Shale the voids of the shale
rock itself are extremely small and water moves very
slowly through this part of the formation. However, the
Flowerpot Shale contains fractures and numerous veins of
selenite., which when leached from the formation permit
the collection and movement of relatively small quantities
of water throughout the formation.
Springs occur commonly in the middle reaches of Elm
Fork in northwestern Harmon County, Oklahoma. These springs
are formed where groundwater issues naturally from the
Flowerpot Shale and either flows in narrow rivulets across
the land surface and down the streams or flows unseen into
the channel alluvial sediments and contributes to the flow
-------
22
of the streams by seepage. Where subsurface discharge of
springs are under sufficiently high hydrostatic pressure,
the spring water may rise locally to the surface through
the alluvial sediments and flow visibly across the valley
floor to the stream channels.
Seepage occurs where groundwater oozes naturally
from rock and issues either at the land surface or directly
into surface water bodies such as streams, ditches, ponds,
lakes and impoundments. Whereas springs flow forth from
discrete openings more or less observable, seepage often
occurs from a myriad of extremely minute openings wetting
larger areas of rock surface and often forming no
discernible flow channel leading from the seepage area.
Subsurface seepage of groundwater through the bedrock voids
directly in the channel alluvium and through the alluvium
into the stream channels is the unseen, but no less
important way to which groundwater is discharged in the
North Fork and Elm Fork basins .
Evaporation
Rainwater, snowmelt and surface waters are dispersed
in part by evaporation. The North Fork and Elm Fork basins
of southwestern Oklahoma lie within an area where
-------
23
evaporation is relatively high. For example, based on U.S.
Weather Bureau studies covering the period 1946-1955, the
mean annual lake evaporation was approximately 65 inches in
the study area. This compares to 20 inches in extreme
northern Maine to 80 inches in the Big Bend area of Texas.
The combination of high evaporation rates and strongly
mineralized surface waters result in extensive accumula-
tions of salts incrusted on stream banks, on the scattered
boulders and pebbles in the channels and in and around
springs and seeps. A commercial salt works in the study
area uses evaporation pits for the accumulation of sodium-
chloride salt which is hauled away and sold.
Evaporation from the surface of the impounded waters
causes increase in mineral concentration with passage of
time. This principle was considered in estimating the
water quality of the proposed Navajo Reservoir.
Water dispersal through the transpiration of the
natural plant coverage is not thought to be significant
because southwestern Oklahoma is an area of relatively
sparse natural vegetal coverage.
-------
24
Streamflow
In the North Fork and Elm Fork basins streamflow is
subject to considerable variation and is sustained largely
by groundwater seepage. At the U. S. Geological Survey
gaging station (Station 490) on the North Fork Red River
near Headrick, Oklahoma, the flow record extends from
April 1905 to March 1908 and from October 1937 to the pre-
sent. As of September 1968, this record included extremes
ranging from no flow at times in most years to 30,700 cfs
on October 5, 1955 (gage height 11.50 feet). The maximum
stage known was 16.1 feet sometime prior to 1927, from
information by State Highway Department. Average annual
discharge for 33 years of record (through water year 1968)
is 315 cfs or 228,100 acre-feet per year. However, there
is considerable variation in the average annual discharge.
During the reconnaissance field survey flow measure-
ments were made at the time of stream sampling. As shown
in Table 2, the principal flow during controlled discharge
from Lake Altus is on Elm Fork. At the time of measurement
the flow on Elm Fork was 490.5 cfs at a location one-half
mile above the confluence with North Fork. The North Fork
had a flow of 0.9 cfs at a location 200 yards above the
confluence with Elm Fork.

NATURAL BRINES
Natural brines in the Elm Fork and North Fork basins
are highly mineralized groundwaters containing strong
concentrations of chloride and sulfate salts. The salts
are leached from rock salt deposits and from beds of
gypsum and anhydrite. These brines, discharging to the
streams as spring water and as seepage, together with
salt water runoff and incidental effects of commercial
salt recovery operations all combine to effect stream
quality. From a water use standpoint, chloride, sulfate
and sodium are critical constituents of water because
their excessive concentration may preclude the use of the
water for municipal, industrial or agricultural purposes.
The natural discharge of salt water occurs predominantly
from springs and by seepage. Overland runoff, during and
following rainfall may dilute the concentration of salts
in the streams. However, following periods of evaporation
and natural accumulation of salt incrustations, rainfall
may result in flushing these salts into the streams to
cause temporary high salt loadings.
In the discussion that follows, the water quality data
are based on water samples collected in March 1965. The
-------
27
description of spring sites is obtained from the U. S.
Geological Survey report entitled: Geology and Ground-Water
Features of Salt Springs, Seeps and Plains in the Arkansas
and Red River Basins of Western Oklahoma and Adjacent
Parts of Kansas and Texas. A location map of Area VI
showing prominent springs and seepage areas in Salton,
Robinson and Riser Canyons and along Elm Fork are shown
in Figure 2. Water quality and streamflow data obtained
from the Reconnaissance Survey of March 1965 are indicated
in Table 2.
Elm Fork Basin
Eight tributaries of Elm Fork that have salt springs
were sampled in March 1965. These streams yield the most
highly mineralized chloride waters draining to the proposed
Navajo Reservoir. Chloride concentrations range from a
maximum of 195,000 mg/1 in Riser Canyon to a minimum
of 340 mg/1 in Deer Creek. Although sulfate concentra-
tions were not determined, the chloride/specific conductance
ratios strongly suggest that water containing chloride as
the principal anion is discharged from four streams. CenernlJy

anion.
The -largest salt springs and seepage areas in the
Elm Fork basin are in Salton, Robinson and Riser Canyons.
These canyons are located on the right bank of Elm Fork
in northwestern Harmon County, Oklahoma, and are shown in
Figure 2. Covering a distance of about two miles, this
spring and seepage area extends from three miles east of
the Texas-Oklahoma State line to one mile west of Oklahoma
State Highway 30. Salt water springs flow from the
Flowerpot Shale at the base of the canyon walls and
from the sand-covered canyon floor. As previously
indicated, this spring and seepage area is designated
Area VI in the Corps of Engineers' water quality control
study of the Arkansas-Red River basins and is so designated
in the present report.
Photographs of salt springs in Area VI and of Salton
and Riser Canyons are shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5.
In Area VI the chloride concentrations in water
sampled from Salton, Robinson and Riser Canyons were
191,000, 87,500 and 195,000 mg/1, respectively. With
one exception, these concentrations range from 4.5 to
10.0 times larger than encountered at the 13 other stations

at which water was sampled in the North Fork basin. Total
chloride loading from these three canyons was 378 T/D
(tons per day).
Specific conductance readings on the water samples
from Salton, Robinson and Riser Canyons were 223,000,
151,000 and 227,000 micromhos per centimeter at 25°C.,
respectively. When comparing the ratio of chloride con-
centration of each water sample to the corresponding
specific conductance of the sample, the respective
figures are 0.86, 0.58 and 0.86. These high ratios indi-
cate that chloride is the principal anion in the natural
brine.
Fish Creek, which flows into Elm Fork about one mile
downstream from Station 753, has a small spring about three
miles from the confluence. At the time of sampling in
March 1965, the chloride concentration was 7,600 mg/1.
Total chloride loading was 1.0 T/D. The chloride/specific
conductance ratio is 0.37 indicating that chloride was
probably not the principal anion. Data from other sources,
but not presented in this report, would indicate that sul-
fate is probably the principal anion in this water and
occurs in a concentration exceeding 7,600 mg/1.
An unnamed tributary of Elm Fork, located six miles
east and two miles north of Carl, Oklahoma, has highly
-------
34
saline water. This stream (designated "A" in Figure 1)
had a chloride concentration of 125,000 mg/1 and a specific
conductance of 146,900 micromhos when sampled in March
1965. The chloride/specific conductance ratio was 0.85
indicating that chloride is the principal anion in the
water. Total chloride loading was 33.8 T/D.
An unnamed tributary (designated "B" in Figure l)is
located five miles north and four and one-half miles west
of Reed, Oklahoma. This tributary has salt springs about
one mile above its confluence with Elm Fork. The chloride
concentration of sampled water was 10,900 mg/1. Total
chloride loading was 5.3 T/D. Specific conductance was
38,900 micromhos. The chloride/specific conductance ratio
is 0.50. Chloride may be the principal anion in this
water.
Deer Creek enters along the left bank of Elm Fork at
a point about five and one-half miles north of Reed,
Oklahoma. The chloride concentration of sampled water was
340 mg/1. Total chloride loading was 0.3 T/D. Specific
conductance was 3,590 micromhos. The chloride/specific
conductance ratio is about 0.10 indicating that chloride
is probably a minor anion constituent of the water. Sul-
fate may be the principal anion and probably occurs in a
concentration exceeding 340 mg/1.
-------
35
Another unnamed tributary (designated "C" in Figure 1)
is located two and one-half miles north and two and one-
half miles west of Reed, Oklahoma. There are salt springs
about one mile above the confluence with Elm Fork. The
chloride concentration and specific conductance of sampled
water were 500 mg/1 and 4,210 micromhos, respectively.
The chloride/specific conductance ratio is 0.12 indicating
that chloride is probably a minor anion constituent of the
water. Sulfate may be the principal anion and probably
occurs in a concentration exceeding 500 mg/1. Total chlo-
ride loading was 0.3 T/D.
Haystack Creek, in an area about 20 miles above its
confluence with Elm Fork, has a number of salt springs of
small volume. During periods of low flow, very little salt
water discharges to the stream. However, evaporation
causes salt deposits to be formed in the upper reaches of
the creek, and during periods of high flow the salt is
flushed into the creek. At the time of sampling in March
1965, the chloride concentration and specific conductance
were 780 mg/1 and 4,320 micromhos, respectively. The
chloride/specific conductance ratio was 0.18, indicating
that chloride is not the principal anion in the water.
Sulfate may occur in concentrations exceeding 780 mg/1.
Total chloride loading was 1.0 T/D.
-------
36
Salt works in the Elm Fork basin are not thought to
be significant sources of salt water pollution. Originally
depending on the diversion of the flow of salt water
springs to the evaporation pits, present operations rely
on shallow dug wells and on drilled wells. The pumping of
these wells reportedly affects the flow of local springs,
indicating the hydrologic continuity between the source of
well brines and those issuing naturally from springs.
During the 7-year period of record, the average total
daily chloride and sulfate loadings issuing from Area VI
were 322 tons and 12 tons, respectively.
North Fork Basin
Two tributaries of North Fork were sampled in March
1965. These streams have the lowest chloride concentra-
tions and are the least mineralized among those listed in
Table 2. Chloride concentrations did not exceed 290 mg/1.
Although sulfate was not determined, the general knowledge
of the composition of waters in this region and the
chloride/specific conductance ratio of the samples strongly
suggest that sulfate is the principal anion in these two
streams.
-------
37
One tributary (designated "D" in Figure 1) is located
four miles west and four and one-half miles north of
Warren, Oklahoma. The chloride concentration and specific
conductance of sampled water was 290 mg/1 and 2,030
micromhos, respectively. Total chloride loading was about
0.3 T/D. The chloride/specific conductance ratio was 0.14,
suggesting that sulfate may be the principal anion at a
concentration exceeding 290 mg/1.
Elk Creek, entering North Fork from the left bank,
is located four miles east and three and one-half miles
north of Warren, Oklahoma. The chloride concentration
and specific conductance of sampled water was 145 mg/1 and
1,450 micromhos. Total chloride loading was 3.3 T/D. The
chloride/specific conductance ratio is 0.10. Sulfate is
assumed to be the principal anion at a concentration ex-
ceeding 145 mg/1.
During the 7-year period of record, the average total
daily chloride and sulfate loadings at Sampling Station
490 were 448 tons and 314 tons, respectively. Brine dis-
charges from Area VI accounted for approximately 72 percent
of the chloride loading and 4 percent of the sulfate load-
ing at Station 490.

38
STREAM QUALITY
Stream quality data used in the present study were
collected at five water quality monitoring stations for
various periods between July 1960 through September 1967.
The start of data collection in 1960 was part of an inten-
sive two-year investigation by the U. S. Public Health
Service to locate and define natural and man-made sources
of salt pollution and to determine the impact of these
sources on the quality of the receiving streams. At that
time two stream quality monitoring stations (Stations 754
and 753) were established on Elm Fork and one (Station 490)
on North Fork. Streamflow surveillance was required and
the three water quality monitoring stations were located,
where possible, at existing stream gaging stations. Upon
initiation of the present study in 1963, the Monitoring
and Surveillance Program was continued and expanded to
include two additional stations (Stations 4 and 5), which
were added as a result of the Reconnaissance Survey of
March 1965. The FWQA, upon receiving this project from
the Public Health Service, continued the stream sampling
and stream gaging programs until the end of the field
studies in September 1967.
-------
39
Table 3 indicates the periods when each sampling sta-
tion was operative during the Monitoring and Surveillance
Program. The location of these five stations are discussed
in Appendix A. The important aspects of the Monitoring and
Surveillance Program and the Reconnaissance Survey are dis-
cussed in Appendix B and C, respectively. The daily flow
and continuous recorded quality data (specific conductance)
for the period October 1960 to September 1967 is tabulated
in Appendix D. Monthly summary of continuous recorded flow
and quality data (specific conductance, chlorides and sul-
fates) are presented in Appendix E.
Elm Fork of North Fork Red River
Elm Fork is the principal source of salt water in the
drainage area of the proposed Navajo Reservoir. Originat-
ing at the confluence of North Elm Creek and South Elm
Creek in extreme southwestern Beckham County, Oklahoma, it
flows 59 miles in an easterly direction through southwestern
Oklahoma before entering the North Fork Red River. The
confluence is two miles below Lake Altus and 32 miles up-
stream from the Navajo Reservoir damsite. The headwater
streams extend into southern Wheeler County and southeastern
Collingsworth County, Texas.

Chloride Concentrations
Data on the natural concentrations of chloride in Elm
Fork are presented in a series of cumulative frequency dia-
grams in Figure 6 and a cumulative frequency data in
Table 4. The flow-weighted average chloride concentrations
and annual mean chloride loads for the period 1961-1967 are
listed in Table 5.
The cumulative frequency diagrams show the percent of
time that certain chloride concentrations occurred at
Sampling Stations 754, 753, 4 and 5. Also indicated are
the extent to which extreme concentrations depart from the
range of most frequent occurrence and, by comparing, how
this differs from one sampling station to another. More-
over, each diagram consists of two curves, one reflecting
natural conditions and the other reflecting hypothetical
conditions based on the following assumptions.
1. Prevention of all brines in Area VI from draining
into Elm Fork.
2. Salt mining operations in the study area remain
unaltered in terms of location, salt recovery
techniques, production rate or any other activity
that may affect the salinization of Elm Fork.

3. General climatic conditions affecting the study
area remain unchanged.
4. No man-made structures alter the natural flow of
the stream except in Area VI.
5. No additional man-made pollution of Elm Fork.
Table 4 lists cumulative frequency data on chloride
concentrations for conditions as they existed during the
study and for hypothetical controlled conditions in which
the quality of Elm Fork is assumed unaffected by natural
brines from Area VI.
Table 5 lists the mean annual streamflow, chloride
concentrations and chloride loading of Elm Fork for the
period 1961-1967.
Of the four sampling stations established on Elm Fork,
the highest chloride concentrations occur at Station 753,
located immediately downstream from Area VI. At Station 753
chloride concentrations equal or exceed 1,410 mg/1 90
percent of the time and 6,580 mg/1 50 percent of the time.
At Station 754, which is immediately upstream from Area VI,
chloride concentrations equal or exceed 310 and 880 mg/1
90 and 50 percent of the time, respectively. Station 5
is farthest downstream on Elm Fork (36.2 miles below Station
753). The chloride concentrations at this station equal
or exceed 720 mg/1 and 5,190 mg/1 90 and 50 percent of the
time, respectively. Of the four stations established on
Elm Fork, water quality data collected at Station 754 and
-------
46
753 define the impact that the natural brines from Area
VI have on Elm Fork. Station 5 is closest to the proposed
Navajo Reservoir and water quality data collected at this
location represents the net effect of all upstream factors
contributing to the chloride content of Elm Fork. For these
reasons the water quality at this station is particularly
important in estimating the water quality of the proposed
impoundment.
The flow—weighted average chloride concentration and
annual mean chloride load, as indicated in Table 5, range
respectively from a maximum of 5,700 mg/1 and 645 T/D at
Sampling Station 753 to a minimum of 520 mg/1 and 72 T/D
at Sampling Station 754 for seven years of record. At
Sampling Station 5 the annual mean chloride concentration
and chloride load range, respectively, from a maximum of
2,180 mg/1 and 484 T/D to a minimum of 911 mg/1 and 427
T/D for three years of records.
Control of Area VI, which is the hypothetical condi-
tion of pollution abatement previously discussed, would
result in a large reduction in chloride concentrations.
At Sampling Station 753 and 5, the controlled chloride
concentrations that would occur are 525 and 100 mg/1 or
more 90 percent of the time, which indicate decreases of
885 and 220 mg/1 or more 90 percent of the time from the
natural chloride concentrations at these respective stations.
The controlled chloride concentrations at Stations 753 and 5
-------
47
are 1,670 and 420 mg/1 or more 50 percent of the time.
The corresponding decreases from the natural chloride con-
centrations are 4,910 and 2,840 mg/1 or more 50 percent of
the time.
Sulfate Concentrations
Data on the natural concentrations of sulfate in Elm
Fork are presented in a series of cumulative frequency
diagrams in Figure 7 and as cumulative frequency data in
Table 6. The annual mean sulfate concentrations and sul-
fate loads for the period 1961-1967 are listed in Table 7.
Under the previous discussions of chloride concentra-
tions in Elm Fork, reference was made to cumulative
frequency diagrams. Statements regarding the significance
of these diagrams and of the cumulative frequency curves
apply also to the present discussion of sulfate.
Of the four sampling stations established on Elm Fork,
the highest sulfate concentrations occur at Station 753
and equal or exceed 1,240 mg/1 90 percent of the time and
1,630 mg/1 50 percent of the time. At Station 754, sulfate
concentrations equal or exceed 1,050 and 1,370 mg/1 90
and 50 percent of the time, respectively. Sulfate concentra-
tions at Station 5 equal or exceed 1,070 and 1,680 mg/1 90
and 50 percent of the time, respectively.

The flow-weighted average sulfate concentrations and
mean annual sulfate loads, as indicated in Table 7, range
from the maximums of 1,681 mg.l and 601 T/D at Station 5
to the minimums of 1,130 mg/1 and 96 T/D at Stations 5 and
754, respectively. At Station 5 the mean annual sulfate
concentration and load range from the maximums of 1,681
mg/1 and 601 T/D to the minimums of 1,130 mg/1 and 272 T/D
for the three years of record.
Control of Area VI would result in a small reduction
in sulfate concentrations. At Sampling Stations 753 and 5,
the controlled sulfate concentrations that would occur are
1,140 and 1,040 mg/1 or more 90 percent of the time, respec-
tively, which amount to decreases of 100 and 30 mg/1 or
more 90 percent of the time from the natural sulfate con-
centrations at these respective stations. The controlled
sulfate concentrations at Stations 753 and 5 are 1,510 and
1,630 mg/1 or more 50 percent of the time. The correspond-
ing decreases from the natural chloride concentrations are
120 and 50 mg/1 or more 50 percent of the time.

North Fork Red River
North Fork is the primary source of water for impound-
ment in the proposed Navajo Reservoir. Originating in Gray
County, near Pampa, Texas, it flows easterly and southerly
through the Texas panhandle country and southwestern.
Oklahoma before entering the Red River. Elm Fork enters
North Fork at a point 70.9 miles upstream from where North
Fork joins the Red River.
Chloride Concentrations
Data on the natural concentrations of chloride at
Sampling Station 490 on the North Fork are included as a
cumulative frequency diagram in Figure 6 and as cumulative
frequency data in Table 4. The flow-weighted average chlo-
ride concentrations and annual mean chloride loads for the
period 1961-1967 are listed in Table 5.
Sampling Station 490 is located 10.4 miles downstream
from the damsite of the proposed Navajo Reservoir. Of the
five stations established as part of the Monitoring and
Surveillance Program, the water quality at Sampling Station
490 is thought to represent most closely the quality of the
North Fork as it would flow into the proposed reservoir.
-------
53
Elm Fork enters North Fork 32 miles upstream from the dam-
site and 9 miles upstream from where the blended waters of
the two streams would enter the reservoir.
At Sampling Station 490 the chloride concentrations
that occur are 320 mg/1 or more 90 percent of the time.
The chloride concentrations are 1,320 mg/1 or more 50 per-
cent of the time.
The flow-weighted average chloride concentration and
annual mean chloride load, as indicated in Table 5, range,
respectively, from a maximum of 1,350 mg/1 and 741 T/D to
a minimum of 466 mg/1 and 221 T/D for the seven, years of
record.
Control of Area VI would result in a large reduction
of chloride concentrations at Sampling Station 490. Con-
centrations that occur are 100 and 420 mg/1 or more 90
percent and 50 percent of the time, respectively, which
indicates decreases of 220 and 900 mg/1 or more from the
corresponding natural chloride concentrations.
Sulfate Concentrations
Data on the natural concentrations of sulfate at
Sampling Station 490 on North Fork are included as a cumu-

frequency data in Table 6. The annual mean sulfate con-
centrations and sulfate loads for the period 1961-1967 are
listed in Table 7.
At Sampling Station 490 the sulfate concentrations
that occur are 330 mg/1 or more 90 percent of the time.
The sulfate concentration is 830 mg/1 or more 50 percent of
the time.
The flow-weighted average sulfate concentration and
annual mean sulfate load, as indicated in Table 7, range,
respectively, from a maximum of 972 mg/1 and 477 T/D to a
minimum of 300 mg/1 and 111 T/D for the seven years of re-
cord .
Control of Area VI would result in small reduction of
sulfate concentrations at Sampling Station 490 . Concentra-
tions that occur 90 percent and 50 percent of the time are
320 and 810 mg/1 or more, respectively, which indicate
decreases of 10 and 20 mg/1 or more from the corresponding
natural sulfate concentrations.

NAVAJO RESERVOIR
The critical consideration regarding the proposed
Navajo Reservoir is the suitability of the impounded
water for municipal, industrial and agricultural supply.
Plans for the reservoir have remained tentative and the
project did not reach the state of final engineering
design when it was inactivated. Details on the design
characteristics of the reservoir are, therefore, also
tentative.
The damsite traverses the North Fork Red River ap-
proximately two miles east and five miles north of the
village of Headrick in Sec. 33, T.3 N., R. 18 W., at a
point 43.4 miles upstream from where the North Fork
flows into the Red River. Dam freeboard is 1,436 feet
above mean sea level (ft.-m.s.l.) with a maximum water
surface elevation of 1,430 ft.-m.s.l. Corresponding
maximum water surface area and total reservoir capacity
are 20,526 acres and 546,972 acre-feet, respectively.
Elevations of proposed conservation pools are 1,400,
1,410, and 1,418 ft.-m.s.l. Corresponding water surface
area and conservation storage at 1,400 ft.-m.s.l. is
7,823 acres and 144,648 acre-feet, respectively. Stream-
bed elevation at the damsite is 1,346 ft.-m.s.l. At full
-------
56
capacity, the reservoir will inundate the valley of the
North Fork to a point approximately 23 river miles upstream
from the dam. The valley of Elk Creek will be inundated
approximately 5 river miles upstream from where it joins
the North Fork in Sec. 12, T.4N., R.19E.
Water Uses and Water Quality Criteria
The water impounded by the proposed Navajo Reservoir
is intended to serve as a source of municipal and indus-
trial water supply. The FWQA, in evaluating the
suitability of this water for these two uses extended this
evaluation to include agricultural water use for livestock
watering and irrigation.
In the present study, water quality conditions relat-
ing to the Navajo Reservoir are discussed in terms of
concentrations of chloride and sulfate and in terms of
specific conductance. To evaluate the water suitability
for irrigation, the sodium-adsorption ratio was calculated.
Criteria presented in Table 8 are selected from Water
Quality Criteria, a report of the National Technical Advi-
sory Committee to the Secretary of the Interior, and from
Water Quality Criteria, a report by the California Water
Quality Control Board.

Water quality criteria form the basis for evaluating
water suitability for the designated uses. These criteria
are founded on empirical data and precautionary judgment
arrived at to protect public health, safeguard industrial
processes and equipment and promote agricultural produc-
tivity.
The listed criteria are presented in relation to
municipal, industrial and agricultural water supplies.
Agricultural water use is divided into two categories:
stock watering and irrigation.
Water Quality of the Navajo Reservoir
The water quality of the Navajo Reservoir is deter-
mined by a number of factors. Principal among these are
the quantity and quality of water in storage in the reser-
voir at the outset of reservoir operations; the quantity
and quality of inflow under alternative levels of quality
control of Area VI; the quantity of evaporation loss from
the reservoir; and the controlled reservoir withdrawals
for the proposed water uses.
The quantity of water in the reservoir at the outset
was assumed to be 144,648 acre-feet, the capacity of the
-------
59
reservoir corresponding to the 1,400-foot conservation
pool elevation. The quality of water was based on the
flow-weighted mean chloride and sulfate concentrations
(655 and 455 mg/1, respectively) at Sampling Station 490.
To estimate the chloride and sulfate concentrations
at Station 490, under alternative conditions of water-
quality control of Area VI, the average salt loadings
from Area VI were determined for the 7-year period of re-
cord. The chloride and sulfate loadings from Area VI
constituted 72 percent of the chloride loading and 4 per-
cent of the sulfate loading at Station 490. Under the
assumed levels of zero percent, 80 percent and 100 percent
control of salt loadings from Area VI, the resulting con-
ditions at Station 490 were calculated by correspondingly
reducing the loading from Area VI at that station.
The weighted average chloride and sulfate concentra-
tions of the North Fork at Station 490 under no control,
80 percent control and 100 percent control of brine dis-
charges from Area VI are presented in Table 9.
Inflow characteristics were the mean monthly stream-
flow and water quality of the North Fork at Sampling
Station 490 for the seven year period of record spanning
water years 1961-1967. This station is located 42 river

miles downstream from where Elm Fork joins North Fork
and 10 river miles below the proposed dam. Water quality
at this location should closely represent the complete
blend of waters flowing into the reservoir from North
Fork.
Evaporation losses are based on mean monthly reser-
voir evaporation rates obtained from the Texas Water
Development Board for Quadrangle C-8, which includes the
area of the proposed Navajo Reservoir in southwestern
Oklahoma. The increasing mineralization of the impounded
vater due to evaporation was calculated into the estima-
tions of reservoir quality for an extrapolated period
covering 50 years of hypothetical reservoir operation.
The controlled yields from the reservoir were 6,666 acre-
feet per month.
In estimating the water quality of the Navajo Reser-
voir, the cumulative average chloride and sulfate
concentrations were determined by reservoir routing
analysis and calculated for 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 years
of reservoir operation. The chloride and sulfate reser-
voir routing analysis establishes a hydrologic system in
which those factors that determine reservoir quality are
brought together in mathematical formula used to cal-
culate mean monthly chloride and sulfate concentrations.
-------
62
Starting with a given quantity and quality of water in
the proposed reservoir, the inflow from North Fork is
assumed to be completely mixed with the water in the
reservoir. The combined volume of the impounded waters
is then subject to evaporation at the appropriate monthly
rate. The increased mineralization due to evaporation
is assumed to be uniformly dispersed throughout the im-
poundment, giving the quality of the reservoir for the
particular month involved. A new initial reservoir
capacity is calculated for the end of month conditions.
This is determined by taking the reservoir capacity for
the previous month, adding inflow, and subtracting the
evaporation loss and controlled reservoir yield.
To obtain information on the changing quality of
the reservoir over the years, caused in part by increas-
ing mineralization due to evaporation, water quality
estimates were extrapolated over a 50 year period by
uniform random recycling, on a year by year basis, of
the monthly mean streamflows, chloride and sulfate con-
centrations and evaporation rates for the seven years
of field records. Three sets of recycled data, each
covering a random 50 year sequence, were computed and
averaged to obtain yearly mean chloride and sulfate
-------
63
concentrations. Table 10 presents the estimated cumu-
lative mean chloride and sulfate concentrations in the
Navajo Reservoir for 50 years of operation without con-
trol and with 80 percent control and 100 percent control
of Area VI. The concentrations are rounded to the clos-
est 5 milligrams per liter.
As part of the calculations in estimating the
chloride and sulfate concentrations, reservoir routing
analyses were made assuming the reservoir was initially
filled to three alternative conservation pool levels
(1,400, 1,410 and 1,418 ft.-m.s.l.) with water having
mean chloride and sulfate concentrations of 653 and 457
fflg/1, respectively. In each of these three reservoir
routings, the initital differences in the quantities of
water in storage (144,648 acre-feet at the 1,400 foot level,
238,577 acre-feet at 1,410 foot, and 339,473 acre-feet
at the 1,418 foot level) caused a difference of less than
5 mg/1 in chloride and sulfate concentrations after the first
year of reservoir operation.
The projected quality estimates are based on existing
conditions at the time of the field investigations. Future
upstream developments may affect these estimates.

Chloride Concentrations
As indicated in Table 9. the estimated mean chloride
concentration of the North Fork is 655 mg/1 at Sampling
Station 490. Assuming 80 and 100 percent control of the
concentration of salt brines issuing from Area VI on Elm
Fork, the flow-weighted average chloride concentrations
would be reduced to 275 and 185 mg/1, respectively.
The estimated cumulative average chloride concentra-
tion of the Navajo Reservoir over 50 years of hypothetical
reservoir operations, under assumed alternative conditions
of no control and of 80 and 100 percent control of the
concentrations of Area VI, range from 285 to 1,270 mg/1,
as indicated in Table 10.
Without quality control of Area VI the estimated
cumulative average chloride concentrations in the Navajo
Reservoir range from 1,015 mg/1 to 1,270 mg/1 over the 50
years of reservoir operation. The maximum monthly aver-
age to occur in the reservoir during this same period was
2,410 mg/1.
With 80 percent control of Area VI, the cumulative
average chloride concentrations range from 430 mg/1 to
540 mg/1 over the 50 year period.
Assuming 100 percent control of Area VI, the esti-
mated cumulative averages range from 285 mg/1 to 355 mg/1
over the 50 years of operation.
-------
66
Sulfate Concentrations
As indicated in Table 9. the estimated mean sulfate
concentration of the North Fork is 455 mg/1 at Sampling
Station 490. Assuming 80 and 100 percent effective con-
trol of the concentration of salt brines issuing from Area
VI on Elm Fork, the flow-weighted average sulfate concen-
trations at Station 490 would be reduced to 445 and 440
mg/1, respectively.
The estimated cumulative average sulfate concentra-
tion of the Navajo Reservoir after 5 to 50 years of reser-
voir operation, under assumed alternative conditions of no
control and of 80 and 100 percent control of Area VI,
range in accumulative averages from 640 to 760 mg/1.
Without quality control of Area VI, the estimated
cumulative average sulfate concentrations in the Navajo
Reservoir range from 655 mg/1 to 760 mg/1 over the 50
years of hypothetical reservoir operation. The maximum
monthly average to occur during this same period was
1,395 mg/1.
With 80 percent control of Area VI, the cumulative
average sulfate concentrations range from 645 mg/1 to 735
mg/1 over the 50 year period.
Assuming 100 percent control of Area VI, the esti-
mated accumulative averages range from 640 mg/1 to 730
mg/1 over the 50 years of operation.
-------
67
Water Suitability
Municipal Supply
Evaluating the suitability of water for municipal
supply is complicated by the fact that raw surface water
supplies are commonly treated for quality improvement
before distribution to the water customers. Generally
undesirable water supplies such as ocean water or
grossly polluted fresh water can, at a price, be con-
verted to potable and palatable water. However, when
considering only the more common treatment practices,
such as coagulation, sedimentation, filtration and dis-
infection, the chloride and sulfate concentrations of
the raw supply are unaffected by such treatment. The
present evaluation of water suitability assumes only
the four common types of pre-treatment referred to
above; and that the chloride and sulfate concentrations
of the raw reservoir water would prevail undiminished
in the water delivered from the reservoir to the user.
Quality criteria established for public drinking
water specifies permissible maximuias of 250 mg/1 for
both chloride and sulfate concentrations. Thus the
cumulative average concentrations of chloride and sul-
fate, under the several conditions of quality control
of Area VI, exceed the permissible maximums by 105 to
-------
68
1,020 mg/1 for chloride and by 480 to 510 mg/1 for sul-
fate. Thus, the quality of the Navajo Reservoir is
unsuitable for public water supply.
Industrial Supply
Industrial water quality requirements are almost as
varied and numerous as there are types of industrial pro-
ducts. For this reason no criteria relating to the
chloride or sulfate concentrations of raw surface water
supplies can apply to a large number of industrial water
uses. Moreover, pre-treatment techniques permit utiliz-
ing water of grossly substandard quality to produce water
of acceptable quality at the point of use. The present
appraisal of water suitability is based on quality char-
acteristics of surface waters that have been used as
sources of industrial water supply.
The maximum concentrations of chloride in waters
that have been used as sources of industrial supply range
from 200 mg/1 in process water of the pulp and paper
industry to 22,000 mg/1 in brackish cooling water in once-
through systems and in the makeup cycle.
Chloride concentrations in the Navajo Reservoir are
estimated to range from a cumulative average of 1,015 to
1,270 mg/1 over the 50 years of hypothetical reservoir
-------
69
operation, assuming no control of Area VI. Compared with
the maximums established by industry, this range of
concentration is within the quality limits for process
water used in the petroleum industry (1,600 mg/1 maximum),
for boiler makeup water (19,000 mg/1), and for those indus-
tries where brackish water is used as cooling water in
once-through systems and in the makeup recyle (22,000 mg/1)
The estimated chloride concentrations exceed the maximums
for process water in the pulp and paper industry (200 mg/1
17), chemical industry (500 mg/1), and prime metals indus-
try (500 mg/1), and for fresh cooling water in a once-
through system (600 mg/1) and in the makeup recycle (500
mg/1).
With 80 percent control of Area VI, the estimated
chloride concentrations range from a cumulative average of
430 to 540 mg/1 over the 50 years of reservoir operation.
These concentrations are within the quality limits of the
same industries discussed above under conditions of no con-
trol of Area VI. The estimated chloride concentrations
exceed the maximum for process water in the pulp and paper
industry (200 mg/1 I./). For process water used in primary
metals industries, and for fresh cooling water in the
I./ May be 1,000 mg/1 or less for mechanical pulping
operations.
-------
70
once-through system and in the makeup recycle, the reser-
voir is of marginal quality with respect to accumulative
average chloride concentrations with 80 percent control of
Area VI. However, the cumulative averages do not reflect
the large fluctuations in quality that frequently exceed
the criteria for these water uses. Although periods of
satisfactory reservoir quality do occur, these periods are
temporary. The reliability of the reservoir quality is low.
Standard deviations, based upon the yearly average concentra-
tions for the three sets of 50-year projected reservoir use,
are 135 mg/1 for chloride and 185 mg/1 for sulfate under 80
percent control of Area VI. As a source of industrial supply,
the Navajo Reservoir is definitely unsuitable for a number of
industries, inherently inadequate for those having maximums
that are near the accumulative average chloride concentrations
of the reservoir, and suitable only for boiler makeup water
and for brackish cooling water.
The maximum concentrations of sulfate in waters that
have been used as sources of industrial supply range from
570 in process water of the petroleum industry to 2,700
mg/1 in brackish-=-' cooling water in once-through systems
are in the makeup recycle .
Sulfate concentrations in the Navajo Reservoir are
estimated to range from a cumulative average of 655 to 760
mg/1 over the 50 years of reservoir operation, assum-
ing no control of Area VI. Compared with the maximums
I/ Water of more than 1,000 mg/1 dissolved solids.
-------
71
established within industry, this range of concentration
is within the quality limits for boiler makeup water
(1,400 mg/1 maximum), and for those industries where
brackish water is used for cooling in once-through systems
and in the makeup recycle (2,700 mg/1), and in process
water in the chemical industry (850 mg/1). The estimated
sulfate concentrations exceed the maximums for fresh cool-
ing water (680 mg/1) and for process water in the petroleum
industry (570 mg/1).
With 80 percent control of Area VI, the estimated
sulfate concentrations range from a cumulative average of
645 to 735 mg/1 over the 50 years of reservoir operation.
Quality control of Area VI, the prime source of sodium-
chloride brine, reduces insignificantly the estimated
sulfate concentrations in the reservoir. The suitability
of the reservoir for industrial water supply with 80 per-
cent control of Area VI is, therefore, the same as the
suitability without control of Area VI.
Agricultural Supply
Livestock watering.- Water suitability for livestock
depends upon such factors as the species of animals drink-
ing the water, their sex, physiology, natural adaptability
to changing water quality conditions, and upon the water
-------
72
content of their feed. Quality requirements have not been
well established, probably because livestock generally
have relatively high tolerance for saline water, and most
water sources used to date have caused few problems. Such
problems are not necessarily the consumption of lethal con-
centrations, but may arise from consuming water sufficiently
saline to cause, for example, reduction in animal weight in
beef cattle and reduced milk production from dairy cattle.
Chloride concentrations exceeding 4,000 mg/1 report-
edly have caused injury to livestock, whereas concentrations
of 1,500 are assumed safe for cattle, swine, sheep and
chickens.
Sulfate concentrations of approximately 2,100 mg/1 have
caused progressive weakening and death in cattle, whereas
concentrations of no more than 1,000 mg/1 are considered
safe.
Chloride concentrations in the reservoir, under condi-
tions of no control of Area VI, are generally less than the
maximum recommended for livestock watering (1,500 mg/1).
The cumulative average chloride concentrations in the reser-
voir range from 1,015 mg/1 to 1,270 mg/1 over the 50 years
of operation.
With 80 percent control of Area VI, the water quality
in the reservoir is suitable for livestock watering. The
-------
73
cumulative average chloride concentrations range from 430
to 540 mg/1 over the 50 years of reservoir operation.
Sulfate concentrations in the reservoir, under con-
ditions of no control of Area VI, are generally less than
the maximum recommended for livestock (1,000 mg/1). The
cumulative average sulfate concentrations in the reservoir
range from 645 to 735 mg/1 for the 50 year period.
Irrigation.- Water suitability for irrigation is
dependent upon the type of crops to be irrigated , the
characteristics of the soil in which the crops are grown,
and the climatic conditions to which they are exposed.
The complex interaction of the many factors that relate
to soil (such as mineral and organic composition, texture
and structure), to plants (salt tolerance at various
stages of plant growth) and to climate (sunshine, rain-
fall, temperature, wind and humidity) will ultimately
determine whether water of a particular quality will be
suitable for irrigation. A final evaluation of the suit-
ability of water for irrigation must, therefore, consider
the interaction of soil, plants, and climate.
It is beyond the scope of this study to consider
these factors as they apply to the study area in south-
western Oklahoma. However, a general classification of
-------
74
the water in the Navajo Reservoir is possible based on
the Salinity Hazard Chart which correlates sodium-
adsorption ratio (SAR) with the specific conductance.
Water containing sodium as the predominant cation
i
tan adversely affect soil structure and produce poor
conditions of tilth. Potassium has similar affects, but
generally occurs in very small concentrations and is
often included in figures stated for sodium concentra-
tion .
The natural brines of Area VI contain high concen-
trations of sodium as exemplified by an analysis of
spring water in Riser Canyon in which sodium (and
potassium) totals 120,000 mg/1.
SAR values were computed from sodium and calcium
(plus magnesium) concentrations that are equivalent,
respectively, to the estimated chloride and sulfate
concentrations of the Navajo Reservoir. Table 11
lists the computed SAR values and the corresponding
specific conductance figures for 5, 20 and 50 years of
reservoir operation. Figure 8 is a diagram for the
classification of irrigation waters. The significance
of the SI through S4 and Cl through CA coding is dis-
cussed in Appendix F.

SALINITY HAZARD
Classification of Irrigation Water from the proposed Navajo Reservoir
(Diagram from USDA, Agricultural Handbook No. 60)
FIGURE 8
-------
77
Without control of Area VI the reservoir has a very
high sodium hazard (S4) and an extremely high salinity
hazard (C4) making it unsuitable as a source of irrigation
water.
With 80 percent control of Area VI the reservoir has
a medium sodium hazard (S2) and a very high salinity
hazard (S4) making it unsuitable as a source of irrigation
water except under very special conditions.

MONITORING AND SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM
The stream quality monitoring and surveillance
program consisted of continuous specific conductance re-
cording with continuous flow measurement. Weekly
samples were collected and analyzed for correlation of
specific conductance with chloride and sulfate concentra-
tions .
Stream monitoring included five stations, which
are shown in Figure 1. Using information obtained from
the Monitoring and Surveillance Program, cumulative fre-
quency curves (Figures 4 and 6) were derived by
procedures set forth in Statistical Methods in Hydrology.
by Leo R. Beard, January 1962.
Data computations were made by the Statistical
Services Section, Sanitary Engineering Center, FWQA, at
Cincinnati, Ohio, and by personnel of the Arkansas-Red
River project.
Chemical analyses were made according to proce-
dures set forth in Standard Methods for Examination of
Water and Wastewater. 12th Edition, 1965, except sulfate
determinations in FWQA laboratories where a modified
turbidimetric procedure was used to improve analytical
accuracy.

Appendix C
RECONNAISSANCE SURVEY
A field survey was made in March 1965, on the Elm
Fork and its tributaries from Station 754 to its conflu-
ence with the North Fork and on the North Fork and its
tributaries from Lake Altus to Station 490.
The purpose of the survey was to determine the
location of additional stations for the Monitoring and
Surveillance Program. Each tributary was investigated
near their confluence with Elm Fork or North Fork. At
each flowing tributary the flow was measured and a water
sample was taken.
Daily records of Stations 753 and 490 were ex-
amined for a period of thirty days preceding and seven
days following the survey period. The average chloride
concentration was 10,600 mg/1 with insignificant flow
variations. The flow from Area VI is negligible and has
no bearing on total flow at Station 490.

Appendix E
MONTHLY SUMMARY OF CONTINUOUS RECORDED
FLOW AND QUALITY DATA
The tabulation presented in Appendix E summarizes
the streamflow and specific conductance data of Appendix
D, and lists the monthly chloride and sulfate concentra-
tions and loads at Stations 754, 753, 4, 5 and 490.
Correlations between conductance and concentra-
tion of chlorides and sulfates were determined for each
station from analyses of weekly grab samples collected
during the study. These individual correlations were
used to compute constituent concentrations. The corre-
lation equations are shown for each tabulation. Flow
measurements were then used to translate concentration
in mg/1 to load in tons per day.
Also presented as part of this tabulation is a
summary of stream flow data consisting of mean annual
flow and the range of annual flows in cubic feet per
second.
All tabulations indicate zero when the measure-
ment was zero and a dash when no data was obtained.
All flow data included in this compilation were
furnished by the District Office of the Surface Water
Branch of the U. S. Geological Survey in Oklahoma. The
maximum and minimum of the daily means are shown for
-------
106
each month and for the entire year. Complete flow
measurements are shown in this part including periods
when no specific conductance was measured.
Specific conductance was flow-weighted to obtain monthly
means. The concentration of each constituent was computed
from the specific conductance, using correlation equations
derived from laboratory analyses of weekly samples. The
tabulation shows the highest and lowest of the daily means
of specific conductance recorded and concentration computed
during each month and the water year. A zero daily mean
concentration (and load) representing a zero daily flow
was not considered in selection of the monthly and annual
minimum daily means. Zero daily flows are shown, however.
When continuous specific conductance measurements
were not obtained for a significant portion of time, an
engineering review was made of the nonmeasured periods
and reasonable quality estimates assigned to all or a
portion of the missing record. Flow rates, flow pat-
terns, continuous recorded qualities before and after the
no record period, similarity of flows and patterns to
measured periods, and results of grab samples were used
to select reasonable estimates of quality for periods up
to several weeks.
