I. INTRODUCTION
1/
A survey of water quality conditions in the lower Big Sioux River—
conducted by the Iowa Department of Health in February, 1972, determined
that severe degradation of iater quality occurs during winter low flow
conditions. The primary sources of pollution causing this uater quality
degradation are municipal and industrial waste discharges in the Sioux
Falls, South Dakota, metropolitan area.
The Big Sioux River forms the boundary between South Dakota and Iowa
from near Sioux Falls downstream to the 1issouri River near Sioux City,
Iowa. Interstate pollution is thus occurring and is subject to abatement
under the provisions of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended.
It is aniccipated chat the State of io .’a will request. that the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) call a Federal—State Enforcerrent
Conference to develop recommendations for abatement of interstate pollution
of the Big Sioux River. The National Field Investigations Center—Denver,
EPA, has been requested by Region VII, Kansas City, Missouri, and Region
VIII, Denver, Colorado, to compile existing informatLon to conduct field
investigations as necessary, and to prepare a report for submission to the
anticipated enforcement conference. As an initial step in meeting this
request, available information has been summarized herein.
Substantial differences exist between the waler quality standards
established by Iowa and by South Dakota for the same reaches of the lower
Big Sioux River bordering the two States. Violations of both sets of
standards occur during low flow conditions. Waler quality standards and
other applicable atcr quali tv repulations arc discussed in Chapter IV.
-------
2
The City of Sioux Falls municipal waste treatment plant, the John
Morrell and Company meat packing plant, and Spencer Foods, Incorporated,
all located in Sioux Falls, are the principal sources of pollution in the
basin. Other smaller municipal and industrial sources are scattered
throughout the basin. Agricu]tural sources, including numerous small
and medium sized feedlots, also contribute significant pollution loads.
Sources of pollution arc sununarized in Chapter V.
Streamflow in the Big Sioux River and tributaries in normally much
less than the annual average flow during the late fall and early winter
months. In dry years, the flow in the Big Sioux River upstream from
Sioux Falls may approach zero. During such conditions, streanflow down-
stream from Sioux Falls consists primarily of waste effluents. Severe
water quality degradation characterized by depletion of dissolved oxygen
levels to near zero, and high ammonia concentrations results. Previous
studies, sources of water quality data, and observed water quality con-
ditions are discussed in Chapter VI.

II. SUIINARY / N1) CONCLUSIONS
S ummary
The Big Sioux River basin is a rich agricultural valley encompassing
part of South Dakota, Minnesota and Iowa. Lo ar reaches of the Big Sioux
River become severely degraded downstream from Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Water Quality Standards of South Dakota and Io ’a are frequently violated.
The quality of industrial discharges has recently improved although nc i
industrial sources and additional wastewater loading to the Sioux Falls
plant are expected in the near future.
Con cl us ions
1. Streamflow of the Big Sioux River is higblv variable. It is
c eneraJ lv ( Yi nerreur. of th Lime) in the Intermittent str am use
category from the middle of December through the end of February. Seventy
percent of the annual basin runoff occurs during March through June.
2. The water quality of the Big Sioux River is severely degraded
downstream from Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
3. Iowa Water Quality Standards for dissolved oxygen and ammonia
arc frequently violated frorn the juntion of the Rock River and the Big
Sioux River upstream to tne To .’a—Minnesota state line.
4. South Dakota Water Quality Standards for dissolved oxygen are
frequently violated in the vicinity of Sioux Pal]c.
5. luterstate water pol lotion is occurLi’ g betueen South Dakota
and Iowa.
6. South Dakota, innesota and Io;ia have laws requiring the issuance
of permits for the discharge ot wactex atcr.
-------

7. Wastewater discharges from Spencer Food, Inc., John orrell and
Company and the Sioux Falls Wastewater Treatment Plant are the cause of
water quality degradation downstream from Sioux Falls.
8. Spencer Foods, Inc. will divert uastewater to the Sioux Falls
Wastewater Treatment Plant by January 1, 1973. This is expected to
result in an increase in effluent BUD load.
9. John 1-lorrell and Company meat packing plant has reduced the DOD
load of their condenser water discharge from 10,500 to 130 pounds per day.
10. Norrell is planning the construction of a non—edible rendcr ng
plant in about t o years. As a result, the organic load discharge to the
city plant snould be reduced by about 60 percent.

III. DESCRIPTION OF AREA
Physical Description
The Big Sioux River Basin is located in eastern South Dakota, south-
western Minnesota, and northwestern Iowa [Figure 1], About 69 percent of
its drainage area of about 9,570 square miles is located in South Dakota
with 16 and 15 percent of the area located in Minnesota and Iowa respec-
tively. About 1,970 square miles of the South Dakota portion of the
basin does not contribute surface runoff to the Bdg Sioux River. Mean
elevation of the basin is about 1,400 feet above sea level.
The Big Sioux River originates in northeastern South Dakota north
of Watertown and flows southward about 420 river piles to join the Missouri
River near Sioux City, lows, 'ihe Rock River is the largest tributary.
draining most of the Minnesota and Iowa portions of the basin (1,700
square miles). Another tributary is Skunk Creek tnat has a drainage of
540 square miles and enters the Big Sioux River at Sioux Falls, South
Dakota. One other important tributary is Split Rflck Creek,
Population And The Economy
The general population trend within the Big Sioux River Basin has
been a gradual movement of people from rural to urbdn areas. The basin
population increased a slox*/, but steady, 11 percent from 1940 to 1960,
and decreased 2 percent from 1960 to the 1970 level of approximately
215,000 people, flost of the growth and change has occurred in the
Sioux Falls Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA), which had
a 1970 population equal to 45 percent (95,209) cf the basin total.
The growth in Sioux Falls SMSA (30,000 people during the past decade)

has been at ihe expense of the decrease in the rural area PoPulation
of the basin. Except for Brookings and aterto ’n, South Dakota with
1970 population levels above 13,000, the remaining segment of the basin
populat]on is located in small communities and on farnisteads. post of
the future population growth of the basin is expected to occur is these
three areas.
The economy of the basin is founded predominately upon agricultural
activities. It ’s business, industrial, and subsequent economic develop-
ment is directly related to an agricultural base and growing Uvestock
industry. The entire basin contalas rich and fertile farmldnd that
produces high yields of corn, alfalfa, oats, and other feed crops.
Farmsteads throughout the basiui are involved in cash—grain operations.
Farm units average t:t’o to three per square mile. In addition, moot
farmsteads have some type of livestock production operation \ hi 1l include
beef and dairy cattle, sheep and swine. The basin contains approximately
112,000 cattle on feed, 504,000 hogs, 202,000 sheep, and 1,494,000
chickens. Livestock raisinn is generally found in the upper portion
of the basin and livestock feeding operations are located in the lower
areas. Five cattle feeders in the basin catrv over 1,000 head. \‘ery
few hog, sheep, or poultry operations are large. Of the total cash
farm income a year ($210 million), three—fourths Is generated from sales
of livestock, poultry, and related products.
Sioux Falls. South Dakota has a number of manufacturing çlants and
is the central distributine center for many wholesale companies and sales
outlets. In 1970, 5,835 neonle were employ’d In manufacturing activities,
-------
7
with 75 percent of these involved in the category of food and kindred
products. About half the people in this category were employed in
the meat packing industry that is centered in Sioux Fails. The Norrell
Packing Plant located there is one of the largest meat packing plants
in the nation. The Sioux Falls lIvestock market ranks among time top
ten in the nation.
Most of the trades and services for the basin economy are provided
by the Sioux Falls SMSA, which fills the trade center role of the area.
These activities realize a sales volume of about $350 million dollars
per year within the basin. This population canter is served by a good
transportation network that includes five railroads, Joe Foss Municipal
airport, and two interstate highway systems.
1{vdrol cgy
The primary source of waler in the Big Sioux River is direct surface
runoff from many small westward flowing tributary streams. Rock Creek,
a major tributary, contributes more Iliac 30 percent of the entire basin
annual flow. Skunk Creek, the principal western tributary, contributes
only 6 percent of the average annual river flow. Al] of the runoff in
the contributing area of the basin is unconLrolled. During time irrigation
season diversions and return flows from about 3,000 acres of land above
Sioux Falls cause minor changes in stream flows. [ Irrigation pernits
to 1969 have been granted which expand this area to about 14,000 acres.]
Of the annual basin runoff, about 70 percent of tue total results
from spring snowmclt and rain during the months March through June.
MosL of this runoff is contributed from the lower part of the basin
-------
8
where the precipitation rate is greatest. The remaining portion of the
year, particularly fall and winter months, runoff is contributed primarily
from ground water storage. These ground “atcr resources are stored in
areas of glacial outuash and alluvial deposits located along glacial melt
water channels and along stream valleys * Recharge to the ground water
aquifers is primarily from precipitation infiltrating into the outwash
deposits. At Watertown, South Dakota in the upper reaches of the basin,
the Big Sioux River does not normally flow during the fall and winter
months. Further downstream at Brookings, the river flow has reached hero
only a few times in the past two decades. From Dell Rapids on dcnmstream
the river flow has never been recorded as zero, Hence, the runoff from
grou’ (I unrer ustain the river floTT du:i’ fall a: rta ma.
The strc an1 flows :ithin the 1)asJLI are highLy variable. During the
flarch through June period when most of the surface runoff occurs, the
flow variation is the greatest. For example during the past two decades
the average April flow has varied from 45 to 6J0 cfs in the i3ig Sioux
River at Sioux Falls. For the period of record it has had instantaneous
flow readings thdt varied from 0.5 to 13,800 cfs. The 1— and 7—day minimum
flows occurring one in len years are 1.1) and 1.6 cfs, respectively. The
flow variation can also be iflustrated us]ng mean monthly sLrean flows
in cfs in the following table as reported by

As indicated in the South Dakota N itec Quality Standards [ Appendix A]
provisions are made for strear s wnich sometimes fall into the intermittent

to meet various beneflcial uses when the flow in the river is less than
the daily average waste flo ’ entering the river. The Dig Sioux River
is one of these streams. The time during the perind June 1. 3961 through
March 30, 1967 when the Big Sioux Biver have been in tr c intermittent
stream category is depicted by Figure 2. As seca from r -L ure 2, the
intennittent stre am use category generally is in t ffect from the middle
‘of December through the end of February. Examination of long term records
(1943 to present), ucing present wastewaLer flows, indicates during
January and February the Bi Sioux River would have been classified
intcrrnttcnL 50 percent of the time using records from the now abandoned
flow—gaging station at Sioux Falls, and 85 percent of the Lime using the
records from the Brandon flow—gaging station. [ The latter station is
located downstream from points of vastewater discharge in Sioux F i1ls.]

Within the Big Sioux River Basin, all of the Incorporated munici-
palities obtain their municipal water supply from ground water sources
except for Sioux Falls and Watertown, South Dakota which use a combination
of both surface and ground water. Most of the wells for these munici-
palities arc less than 500 feet deep, but they range in depth from 20 to
1,360 feet. The deeper wells (>800 feet) have more hiebly mineralized
water than do the shallow wells. Iost of the municipaLities (85 percent)
have water systems, hut only 45 percent of these have Lreatment plants.
The Sioux Falls municipal plant was recently (1971) expanded to a
capacitY of 52 mgd with the majority of the supply collected from the
Big Sioux River Aquifer. [ This aquLfer, located in the valley north of
the city, is about 18 miles long and 1 1/2—2 miles in width.]
Climate
The climate of the Big Sioux River Basin may be described dS mid—
continental, subhumid, and subject to rapid temperature fluctuation.
Temperature extremes range from —42° to 115°F; the basin has an average
annual temperature of about 45°F. The frost—free peliod ranges from
about 160 to 130 days in the southern and northern part of the basin,
respectively.
Precipitation is greatest in the southeaFtern part of the basin,
averaging about 26 inches (rnn c of 15 to 43 inchc ) per year. The
annual percipitation decreases to about 20 inches (range of 13 to 30
inches) in the northwestern part of the basin. Approximately three—
fourths of the yearly amount falls between April and September, with
the greatest portion occurring during June. Approximately 15—20 percent
of the average annual precipitation falls as snow or sleet.

IV. APPLICABLE WATER QUALITY REGULATIONS
The Big Sioux River and/or its tributaries flow through or border,
the states of Iowa, llinncsota, and South Dakota. Waters of the Big Sioux
River are therefore subject to the applicable Federally approved Water
Quality Standards promulgated by Iowa, Minnesota, and South Dakota, under
provisions of the Water Quality Act of 1965. In addition to Water Quality
Standards, state permit requirements have been established for each of
the three states.
Water Quality Sir and ar d s_
South Dakota Water Quality Standards establish certain uses to be
protected on the C5« Sioux River [Appendix A]. Protection of specific
uses is insured by cne maintenance of -vater quality an determined by the
measurement of certain parameters. Table 1V-1 is a suiiivary of the
critical levels for tncse parameters. Although there are Differences in
*fl' C^-^/4
the water uses designated for each reach, the cril^LpaJ—1-SAAeJ^s of ma ay.-of
tThe—^\'a-r±ous--pojJ_uLanXs_are the same.
The South Dakota Water Quality Standards call for intermittent stream
water quality criteria to apolv when the flow in a stream becomes ?cro or
less than the i-aily average flow of waste water. As may be seen in the
previous chapter, the Bip, Sioux River below Sioux Falls is frequently
classified under the intermittent stream category during low flow periods.

Comparison of Water Quality Standards of South Dakota, Iowa, and
Minnesota, reveal significant differences in the criteria for dissolved
oxygen and ammonia. loua and Minnesota Standards call for dissolved
oxygen concentrations of 4.0 to 6.0 mg/1 while South Dakota Standards
under the intermittent stream criteria do not have a dissolved oxygen
requirement. Therefore, during low flow conditions the Big Sioux River
may be in compliance with South Dakota Standards for dissolved oxygen

the respective water quality t,t.indards. The Sout'i Dakota Implementation
Plan shows all required construction to have been completed in the Big
Sioux basin by January I, 1971. Under the Io\;a Implementation Plan all
necessary construction was to have been accomplished by July 1, 1972.
All construction for the Minnesota Implementation Plan wan to have been
accomplished by December 18, 1971 :ith the exception of sewer separation.
Minnesota has recommended that the remain in p communities with combined
storm and sanitary sewers provide sewer separation by Jane 18, 1978.
Tne communities are: Luvernc, Cap.erton and Holland on the Rock River,
and Pipestone on Pipestone Creek. Tiie current status of compliance
with the implementation plans is unknown.

State Permit Rc.quj'.roments
Al] three states that fall within the Big Sioux River Basin have
some sort of waste discharge permit requirement [Appendix D] . The
pollution control agency for each state has established guidelines or
regulations that specify the condition under which n permit may he issued.
The South Dakota Water Pollution Control Law contains provisions
that authorize the South Dakota Committee on Water Pollution within the
State Department of Health to issue waste discharge permits. The law
is written around discharges from meat processing industries but is
applicable to discharges of sewage, industrial wastes, or other waste
sources. Associated with the issuance of a pcrnit the Committee on
Water Pollution stipulates ccrcain condition:, that inu-jt brj met pertain-
ing ro operate on and maintenance, w?ter quality monitoring, laboratory
analyses, and reporting. However, no effluent requirements or waste
loads are written into the permit itself. The permit issued by the
Committee must be renewed on an annual basts. This is generally accom-
plished automatically by letter from the State Department of Health,
but where special conditions are included must be passed by review of
the Committee on Water Pollution itself.
The Iowa rater Pollution Control T.,n' allo-'s the Iowa Water Pollution
Control Commission within the State Department of Health to control
water pollution through a pernnt pio^ram. The discharge of all sewage,
industrial wastes or other wastes into the waters of the State is
administered through thJs permit program. The Commission has a continuing
responsibility to review existing permits and bring unapproved waste
-------
19
discharges under the permit program. This program is also used to
regulate the construction, modification, or installation of all munic-
ipal and industrial wastewater facilities or collection systems (through
Commission review of plans and specifications), as well as groundwater
recharge, and dam construction and operation (except for power purposes).
The Minnesota Pollution Control Act authorizes the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency to issue waste discharge permits covering all sources,
both interstate and intrastate. The general procedure has been, after
plan review by the Agency, the issuance of a construction or install ation
permit followed by the issuing of a operation and/or discharge permit.
Permits are required for minicipal, commercial, and indust d cl discharge
of wastes to the State waters. The Pollution Co trol Agency issues
permits for an indefinite time period, aithough lermits may be modified
or revoked if necessary. Consideration is being given to dropping the
dual permit system and using a modified single permit system. The
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency is also given enforcement powers to
carry out the permit program.

V. SOURCES OF POLLUTION
There arc three principal(^sourccs of pollution )in the Bip, Sioux
River basin. Industrial wastes in the Sioux Falls area account for
the ma-jor pollution load to the Big Sioux River. The largest source of
industrial w«:stc"atcr is the John Horrell and Company meat packing plant
at Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Municipal waste discharges in the basin
arc also an important ;sourcc of water pollution?) The largest single
source of municipal wastes is the city of Sioux Falls. Another sub-
stantial, although poorlv defined, source of pollurio^, is that resultinp,
from agricultural activities. Feedlots are numeious within the basin,
and through point sources probably account for appreciable pollution.
i
In addition, the large population of livestock t^raxed in the basin
presumablv degrade the quality of runoff water, and are another(source
of pollution.
Municipal Waste Sources
The total flow of municipal vMstewat^r d-uschafp^fl to the 155 r; Si^ux
River bason is approximately ]5.5 n^d. About (j^/r.gd of this is dis-
charged at Sioux Falls, South Dakota while the remain: up, y. 5 irgd is
from many sma] ] soiuces tlirouphout the basin. Almost all of the munic-
ipal sources provide secondary treatment.
Sioux Falls, South Dakota
The cxtv of Sioux Falls, South Dakota with a nietropol: t.in area
population of approximateLv 100,000, is the principal source of municipal
waste in the Dij> Sioux River basin. Approximately six million gallons
-------
21
per day (mgd) of domestic wastcwatcr is treated daily at the Sioux rails
Wastewater Treatment Plant. This represents over 50 percent of the total
municipal wastewater discharged in the basin.
The Sioux Falls Uastewater Treatment Plant treats both industrial
and domcstic wastewater. Industrial wastewater and approximately one
mgd of domestic wastewater from E ist Sioux Falls is treated through a
two—stage trickling filter plant. The industrial effluent along with
approximately five mgd of raw domestic waste atcr is thcn treated through
a conventional activated sludge plant. Secondary efFluent is chlorinated
prior to being discharged to the Bi Sioux River. Sludge is graviLy
thickened ai’cl anaerobically digested before it is discharged to sludge
lagoons for ultimate disoosal. A schematic flow diagram of the Sioux
‘ ii ‘: StCW LO- ‘1rtdLn.eu Plant is shoun in Figure 3.
Currently induc tria1 wastewater treated by Sioux Falls consists of
meat processing wastes from John Morrell and Cor ioany, and other minor
industrial sources. Spencer Foods, Incorporated will divert 0.6 mgd of
process wastewater to the Sioux Falls plant by January 1, 1973. More
information on industrial waste sources is presented in the next section
of this chapter.
Available operating data on the Sioux Fn!ls plant reveals that
from July 1970 to June 1972, the total influent 130D load ranted from
87,500—154,300 lbs/day. During the s.ime period the final effluent BOD
load discharged to thc’ Big Sioux River varie from 800—3,100 lbs/day.
Overall BUD removal efficiency based on load figures went from a low of
96.3 percent to a high of 99.4 percent. These data, presented in Table \T_l
indic; Le the overall BUD r rova] s obtained by the Sioux Falls i 1ant.

It has b^'cn noted (/ift previous studios,— and is supported by the
data presented in Table V-2, that there is a seasonal variation in the
BOD removal efficiency of the Sioux Falls plant. Table V-2 compares; tne
removal efficiencies of the industrial and dome1. tic plants. A slip.ht
decline in removal efficiencies irny be noted for each plant during the
winter months. This effect is not umisuol in that both the industrial
and domestic plants incorporate biological processes. The activity rates
of the microorganisms in these processes are temperature dependent.
Further covnparibon of BOD removal efficiency in Table V-2 shows a more
marked decline in the efficiency of the industrial plant than that of
the domestic plant. Tin's fact also is not unusual since the tenner a Lure

Industrial Waste Sources
Industrial ‘asLcs account for about three tines the BOD load of
domestic wastes in the Big Sioux River 13asin. The two most significaat
sources of industrial wactes are John Uorrell and Company and Spencer
Foods, Incorporated, meat packing plants. Otner industrial sources
include power plants with thermal discharges and a gravel plant.
John Norrell and Company
The largest single source of indusLrial wastes is the Joha iiorrei 1
and Company plant. Tbe thirci largest meat packing plant i n the orid,
l 1 orrell discI arges approximately 3 mgd of process wastes to the Sioux
F ] ls Wastewater Treat icnt Plant. Coadensc’r ‘ater (0.7 mgd) ar d conning
cooling water are diseharreci directly to the Big Sioux River.
itorroll is planning the construction of a non—edible rendcr ng plant
to convert the organic natter, in their process wastes, to a usable pro
duct. This is expected to reduce the 1301) load La the city plant by about
60 percent. Construction of the rendering plant is approximately two
years away.
Condenser water fi-om -lorreli i.s discharged directly to the Big Sioux
River. Until the spring of 1972, approxi aaLcly 2.3 mgd of condenser
water was disdiarged with an verage 1301) load of 10,500 lbs nor day.
Ilorrell has since converted fro’ barometric to non—contact type condeasers.
In addition, steps have been taken to n ’inimi. ’e Jater usage, thus resulting
in a reduction of the total flora of condenser water from 2.3 mgd to
0.7 mgd. Quality of the condenser ynLcr dis:borge has been significantly
improved [ Table \1_4] . Based on sorrlcs col 1 2cted and analyzed by florrell

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
8A-SAT OATE October 6, 1972
SUBJECT Comments on the Report on the Preliminary Assessment of Water
Pollution in the Big Sioux River Basin, South Dakota, Iowa and
Minnesota
TO: • I. L. Dickstein
Chief, Enforcement Division
The following are comments relative to the subject report:
1. The report adequately describes the water pollution conditions that
exist in the Big Sioux River Basin.
2. Table V-3 on page 25 indicates that the town of Howarden, Iowa
has no wastewater treatment facilities. S & A assistance studies
indicate that the town of Howarden, in fact, has a secondary
treatment facility (activated sludge).
3. The discussion of the agricultural runoff contribution on
page 31 may be somewhat misleading. In the third paragraph
on the page, a density of 270 animals per square mile is
applied to the entire Big Sioux River Basin yielding a farm
animal population of about 2,300,000. Referring back to
Figure 1 (following page 5) it appears that the counties of
Day, Codington, Hamlin, Brookings, Kingsbury, Lake, and
Lincoln contain a substantial acreage which has no real
drainage to the Big Sioux. Applying the density factor to
this acreage would, therefore, yield an animal population
(or PE equivalent) higher than actually exists.

Fee dlo t s
The trend in livestock production is to iard confined feeding to
raise the largest number of animals using the least amount of land area.
As a result, a VaSt increase in the nun ber of feedlots has occurred over
the last decade. The water pollution hazard from feedlots is greater
than from open grazing because the animals wastes have a greater tendency
to runoff than to hccor e a part of the soil.
A stud\? was done in 196 — to estimate tIe pollution potentia] of
confined and unconfined feedlots along the rinin stem of the Big Siou:z
River from J3rookings to Sioux Falls. it was estimated Lnat fecdlots
along this reach ol the river contribute abouL 3 .500 pounds of DOD per
monLh during the suinaer months, Whcn compared to the amount of BOD
nocn ally prcsesIt in the r ver, it \us shown that- lcs t ian 3. 5 percent.
was attributable to feeU1ot .
Runoff
Runoff from farmland in thi i1 Sioux basin m iy be a significant
sourcc- of water pollution. Farm animals in t 1 ie fticsouri .Lver basin in
0j
Ninnesota tota]ed approximately 511 ,500 in l97O. This is a density of
approai9latcly 270 animals nor square mile. Applvinp, the SdflC animal
density to the entire Big Sioux basin gives a fdrll animal population
of app roxlmate]y 2,300,000 nicii is eqw vaicrit to a human population
of 10,300,000.
Thus it would seen ] koly that runofi from farm land i n the Big
Sioux ! iver basni is sic nific nt ly degradc b) lana animal W tSLCS.
-------
During periods of moderate to heavy rainfall, a’iinal aste and fer-
tilizers are carried to the surface \7aLe n as runoff, thereby incrcasinp
the nutrient level of the rcce viii uo ters. &uother possible source of
pollution of runoff .is pesticides and herbjcidcs. None of toe studies
consulted have considered these constituents therefore nothing is
currently kno in on their affect on Big Sioux River aLcr quality.

Considerable data has been collected on water quality of the Big
Sioux River. Since 1967 several studies concerning icater quality of
the Bic Slodx River h tve been conducted primarily through South Dakota
State University at Brookincs. The data col lected and stud es conducted
have pointed out serious water quality problems uith resnect to .1 o ’

In September 1969, a study of the needs and value of storage for
Water Quality Control in the Big Sioux River basin was published by the
Federal Hater Pollution Control Administration, Missouri Basin Pegion.
Variations in dissolved oxygen concentrations in the Big Sioux River do ’n—
stream from Sioux Falls were studied, and the river flow necessary for main-
tenance of 4 r ig/i of D.0. was determined for various months of the year.
The annual cost of a single purposc reservoir was estimated to be about
$270,000 while advanced waste treatment at Sioux Falls was estimated
to cost about $64,000 per year.
Sioux Falls College as currently conducting a ‘ater quality study
of the Big Sioux iver. field work for the study was to havc been com—
picLed during summer 1972. The extent of the St iy or comple on date

Water quality data for tue Ii S [ our River is availaule througn the
STORET system. Some data over the last several. sears has been collected
and stored for sanpling stations locaLed at or near Sioux City, Akron,
Hudson, Brandon, S Loux Falls and Watertown. Data avai]aU]o from the
stations in some cases includes flow, water temperature, dissolved
oxygen, BOl), COD, pH, ammonia, nitriLe, nitrate, organic nitrogen,
soluble phosphate, total phr ohorus, dissolved phosphorus, total organic
carbon, coliform •snu fecal coliform.
Sioux Fal Is Stream H ni tori ug Prngrari
Since 1961, the City of Sioux Fall , has corductcd its own stream
monitoring progran. to a certain the cifecti ’cness of treatment provided
-------
35
by the Sioux Falls Wastewater Treatment I’lanL. Weekly samples are cal—
lected at nine stations ranging from the Highway 33 bridge downstream
20 to 25 miles to Kiondike,
AL each station the follo ’ing parameters are rtoaitored; temperature,
dissolved oxygen, BUD, pH, suspended soli cis, chlorine, alka] inity, and
turbid ty. Samples arc analyzed at the plant laboratory by plant personnel
in accordance with “Sta idard Methods for the Examination of ‘Ler and
Was tewater.
Water Quality Problems
1 ater quality problems of the Big Sioux River center primarily around
dissolved oxypen dapletions aad excessive mwioni a COULCOL) Lrations down—
stream from Sioux Fall s Sr urh r) I- t . P riod:c Lc ’ fin’ ‘s of tho r . or
directly affect w ’tcr quality in that: less dilution cLcr is availabic.
Frequent vioiat ons of Water Quality Standards have occurred.
Low Flow Conditions
nearly every year the Big Sioux River experiences conditions of
extreme low flow and drops into the intermittent stream category. Extreme
low flow is most liKely Lo occur between December and March and again in
i\ugust and September. When lot’ flu ’ , occui sufficient dilution atcr
is no available below Sioux Falls, South DaKota, where the I argest waste—
water discharges exist. As a result the Big Sioux River becomes seriously
degraded and Jr apahle ot sun ortLng desirable fnrms of aqu Lic . [ fe.
Figure 2 indicates the periods from June l 6l to March 1967 when the Big
Sioux River downsircain fro.s Sioux Falls as classified under the Lntermittent
-------
36
stream category. It may he noted that the duration of tlic intermittent
stream classification has varied from less than one month to greater
than seven months in consecutive years.
¶lhi]c South Dakota cla sifies the Big Sioux River as intermittent
during extreme 1o’ flow, the bordering ctate of Iowa has no such pro-
visions in their eater Quality Standards. Therefore Iowa Standards call
for the maintenance of considerably higher water quality during low flow,
than do the South Dakota Stand rds.
Dissolved Oxygen
Upstream of Sioux Falls, dissolved oxygen concentrations have
cons Lstently exceeded the 4.0 mg/i required by the South Dakota L ater
Quality Standards. At Sioux ialls, from the ci i v wa 1owntor ‘f13uc’nt
discharge upstream approxinntelv ten nilc , dis olvod oxygen conc entra—
tions have violated the Standards. Downstream from the Sioux Fails
Wastewater Treatment Pinat outfall and the John orrell and Company meat
pacldng plant outfall, severe depletions o1 (1u;salved oxygen have occui--
9/
red.— DlsSolve(1 oxygen concentratious of less than 4.0 mg/i exist
periocilcaily as :or downstre n as the confluence of the Rock River and
1/
the Big Sioux River. —
The discharge of process wastes from the Spencer Foods meat packing
plant is the most likely cause of dis olved oxygen depletions in the
ten mile reach upstream of the City of Sioux Falic outfall. Depletions
bcio i Sioux Falls are attributable to the cnschargc of industrial and
runicipal cfflueni by John Norrell and Company and the city. The
ilorrell discharge iaposec a hOD load of about 130 pounds pet day while
-------
37
the Sioux rails discharge has a DOD load of 800—3,100 pounds per day
[ Table V—i]
Organic materials present in the uastc discharges exuibit an
oxygen demand wni ch is sarisf ed by dissolved oxygen present in the
river. As dissolved oxygen concentratinas are r( duced less desirable
types of fish and other aquatic life become more prevalent.
Critical dissolved oxygen conditions geneLally occur in the Big
Sioux River when the flou is very lou. Lou flow, as dILscussed earlier
in the rcport is ino t likely to occur in uinter or laLe sumner. Under
ice cover in the ulnier, it is believed that the negative f feet of
reduced reacraLian outwei.ghs the po i Live affcct of higher oxv zen
saturation values aod lowered ratc of deox’gcnation. Ta the 1 to summer
ronths ba flc’i C O i c-d uLth bou r u; y e u aiiuii vaiue anu higner
rates of dce vgen tion ag ii’1 create conditions causing dissolved oxygen
concentrations to drop below 4.0 mg/i ..
Violations of both South Dakota and Iowa Uater 0ua1 ty ctaadards,
on dissolved oxycen, frenue itiy occur on the Big Sioa:: River dorjrstrean
and in tnc vici ni tv of Sioux Fal is, South Dakota. Although South
Dakota Scandardr, have no requirements br dissolved oxygen uncer the
intermittent scream category, violatinn cuT,loniv occur when this
classification is not an affect. Iowa Water 0u ) icy Standards for
dissolved gea are also froquently violated from the Towa sLate line
downstream Lo f’ e confluence of the Rock and Big Sioux rivers.
Recent and reildine changes in treatment: practices are e\pected
to affect dissolved oxygen conceci trail ens upstream of and downstreai
-------
38
from Sioux Falls. Dissolved o ygcn concentrations in the ten un le reach
upsLream of the Siow Falls discuiarge siuould increase after January 1,
1973 when Spencer Foods wastes are routed to the city plant. Improve-
ments in the quality of the Morrell condenser water discharge h.is
resulted in a decrease in the effluent BUT) ]o d frcn 10,500 ;ouiuds per
(lay to about 130 pounds per day. The planned addition of Snencer Foods
wastes to the Sioux Falls p1 nut is expected to increase the city effluent
DOD load pproxiniatelv ]/40 pounds per day. The net chance therefore is
a 10,200 pound per day reduction in tne elfluent BUD load dnnnstrean from
Sioux Falls. A marked increase in dissclved oxy on concenLrations is
exriected.
A m on a
Since the lnce)tion of the Sioax Falls Toni t rint pro’L-au’, excessive
concentrations of amrionia have bean observed in the Big Sioux I:iver do m—

water discharge, is sufficiently high in organic astcs containing
material of proteinaceous origin that appreciable concentrations of
ammonia would be present.
Excessive ammonia concentrations have two main adverse affects
on water quality of the Big Sioux River. First, ammonia is LOXLC to
aquatic animals. This fact has been well established in the literature.
The toxicity of d T rmonia to fish has been shocin to increase markedly
at low tensions of dissolved oxyn. Therefore with the dissolved
oxygen depletions on the Big Sioux, toxicity of ammonia is signifi—
cantlv ±ncreascd.
Secondly, nitrogenous rrtat:orials in a reduced form sucu a ann oaia
and organic nitropri exert .in c xy en (leranu On ti c’ receiving ritcr
they arc. o :1d1ucd to trito u tra a. Tbi. is in adds tion
to that of c.orbo wiccous material as mi’asureu uy tae standard BOi) tart.
Hence, the discharge of w stewaLer containing anjnnrlia creaLe more severe
dissolved oxygen deplct ons than if the ort nen1a was removed or corn—
pletelv oxidi:ccd.
The discharce of ammonia at Sioux Falls is causing violation of
Iowa and probably South l\;kctn Water Quality Stanrjards. lotTa Standards
specifically c ll for ammonia concentrations not to exceed 2.0 mg/i.
South Dakota Standards requ ire a r in1nurn dissolved oxygen concentration
of 4.0 mg/I while making (10 mention 01 ammonia. Thejefore it is probable
that ammonia conceJiLrdt ons, of the levels recorded, contribute to dis-
solveu o: yc en d c c Let ions and thus to v olat ions oE South Dakota Standards.
It is believed tnat ammonia levels in the ig Sioux have recently
-------
declined due to 1n provernents in qu3litv of die florreil condenser water
discharge. Whether or not violations of the Standards will continue
is uncertain.
