FOREWORD
The National Eutrophication Survey was initiated in 1972 in
response to an Administration conunitment to investigate the nation-
wide threat of accelerated eutrophication to freshwater lakes and
reservo I rs.
OBJECTIVES
The Survey was designed to develop, in conjunction with state
environmental agencies, information on nutrient sources, concentrations,
and impact on selected freshwater lakes as a basis for formulating
comprehensive and coordinated national, regional, and state management
practices relating to point-source discharge reduction and non-point
source pollution abatement in lake watersheds.
ANALYTIC APPROACH
The mathematical and statistical procedures selected for the
Survey’s eutrophication analysis are based on related concepts that:
a. A generalized representation or model relating
sources, concentrations, and impacts can be constructed.
b. By applying measurements of relevant parameters
associated with lake degradation, the generalized model
can be transformed into an operational representation of
a lake, its drainage basin, and related nutrients.
c. With such a transformation, an assessment of the
potential for eutrophication control can be made.
LAKE ANALYSIS
In this report, the first stage of evaluation of lake and water-
shed data collected from the study lake and its drainage basin is
documented. The report is formatted to provide state environmental
agencies with specific Information for basin planning [ 5303(e)], water
quality criteria/standards review [ 5303(c)], clean lakes [ 5314(a,b)],
and water quality monitoring [ 5106 and §305(b)] activities mandated
by the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972.

-------
111
Beyond the single lake analysis, broader based correlations
between nutrient concentrations (and loading) and trophic condi-
tion are being made to advance the rationale and data base for
refinement of nutrient water quality criteria for the Nation’s
freshwater lakes. Likewise, multivariate evaluations for the
relationships between land use, nutrient export, and trophic
condition, by lake class or use, are being developed to assist
in the formulation of planning guidelines and policies by EPA
and to augment plans implementation by the states.
AC KNOWL EDGMENT
The staff of the National Eutrophication Survey (Office of
Research & Development, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency)
expresses sincere appreciation to the South Dakota Departments of
Environmental Protection and Game, Fish and Parks for professional
involvement, to the South Dakota National Guard for conducting the
tributary sampling phase of the Survey, and to those wastewater
treatment plant operators who voluntarily provided effluent samples.
Allyn Lockner, Secretary, and Blame Barker and Duane Murphy,
Department of Environmental Quality; Douglas Hansen, Department
of Game, Fish and Parks; and James Hayden, Director, State Lakes
Preservation Comittee provided invaluable lake documentation and
counsel during the Survey, reviewed the preliminary reports, and
provided critiques most useful in the preparation of this Working
Paper series.
Major General Duane L. Corning, the Adjutant General of South
Dakota, and Project Officer Colonel Robert D. Chalberg, who directed
the volunteer efforts of the South Dakota National Guardsmen, are also
gratefully acknowledged for their assistance to the Survey.

LAKE ST. JOHN
STORET NO. 4613
I. INTRODUCTION
Due to low flow conditions, only a few outlet samples were collected.
Therefore, this report relates only to the lake sampling data. However,
the outlet and wastewater treatment plant effluent data obtained are
included in Appendix E for the record.
II. CONCLUSIONS
A. Trophic Condition:
Survey data indicate that Lake St. John is eutrophic. It
ranked twenty—fourth in overall trophic quality when the 31 South
Dakota lakes sampled in 1974 were compared using a combination of
six water quality parameters*. Twenty-six of the lakes had less
mediar total phosphorus, 17 had less median dissolved orthophos-
phorus, three had less and one had the same median inorganic nitro-
gen, 26 had less mean chlorophyll a, and 28 had less mean Secchi
disc transparency.
Survey limnologists reported algal blooms in July and September.
B. Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
The algal assay results indicate that the lake was nitrogen
limited in April and September. The lake data indicate nitrogen
limitation at all sampling times.

IV. LAKE WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
Lake St. John was sampled three times during the open-water season
of 1974 by means of a pontoon—equipped Huey helicopter. The first time,
a near—surface sample for physical and chemical parameters was collected
from one station on the lake, and the latter two times, samples were
collected from two depths at two stations (see map, page v). During
each visit, a single depth—integrated (near bottom to surface) sample
was collected from the station(s) for phytoplankton identification and
enumeration; and during the first and last visits, single 18.9-liter
depth—integrated samples were collected for algal assays. Also each
time, a depth-integrated sample was taken from each station sampled for
chlorophyll a analysis. The maximum depths sampled were near-surface
at station 1, 0.6 meters at stations 2, and 0.3 meters at station 3.
The sampling results are presented in full in Appendix 0 and are
summarized in the following table.

2. Discussion -
lhe control yields of the assay alga, Selenastrurn c pri-
cornutum , indicate that the potential primary productivity
of Lake St. John was high at the times the assay samples were
collected (04/23/74 and 09/20/74). Also, significant increases
in yield with the addition of nitrogen alone indicate that the
lake was limited by nitrogen at those times. Note that the
addition of phosphorus alone did not result in significantly
increased yields.
The lake data also indicate nitrogen limitation; i.e.,
the mean inorganic nitrogen/orthophosphorus ratios were 5/1
or less on all sampling occasions.
