FOREWORD
The National Eutrophication Survey was initiated in 1972 in
response to an Administration commitment to investigate the nation-
wide threat of accelerated eutrophication to fresh water lakes and
reservoirs.
OBJECTI VES
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 [ 3O3(e)], water
quality criteria/standards review [ 3O3(c)], clean lakes [ 314(a,b)],
and water quality monitoring [ lO6 and §305(b)] activities mandated
by the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972.

-------
•l11
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
fresh water 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.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT
The staff of the National Eutrophication Survey (Office of
Research & Development, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency)
expresses sincere appreciation to the Wisconsin Department of
Natural Resources for professional involvement and to the Wis-
consin National Guard for conduct of the tributary sampling
phase of the Survey.
Francis H. Schraufnagel, Acting Assistant Director, and Joseph
R. Ball of the Bureau of Water Quality, and Donald R. Winter, Lake
Rehabilitation Program, provided invaluable lake documentation and
counsel during the Survey. Central Office and District Office per-
sonnel of the Department of Natural Resources reviewed the prelim-
inary reports and provided critiques most useful in the preparation
of this Working Paper series.
Major General James J. Lison, Jr., the Adjutant General of
Wisconsin, and Project Officer CW—4 Donald D. Erickson, who directed
the volunteer efforts of the Wisconsin National Guardsmen, are also
gratefully acknowledged for their assistance to the Survey.

DELAVAN LAKE
STORET NO. 5513
I. CONCLUSIONS
A. Trophic Condition:
Survey data and the records of others show that Delavan
Lake is highly eutrophic.
B. Rate-Limiting Nutrient:
Algal assay results show Delavan Lake was nitrogen limited
at the time the sample was collected. The lake data indicate
nitrogen limitation at the other sampling times as well.
C. Nutrient Controllability:
1. Point sources--During the sampling year, Delavan Lake
received a total phosphorus load at a rate over three times the
rate proposed by Vollenweider (in press) as “dangerous”; i.e.,
a eutrophic rate (see page 15). Of that load, three point sources
are estimated to have contributed just over 75%.
In the following table the total phosphorus loading rates that
can be achieved by specified levels of phosphorus removal at all
three point sources are shown and compared to Vollenweider’s
suggested rates.

-------

Total P Loadin
% P Removal lbs/acre/yr g/m /yr
Existing 10.0 1.12
50 6.2 0.69
70 4.7 0.52
80 3.9 0.44
90 3.2 0.36
100 2.4 0.27
Vollenweider:
“Dangerous”
0 .32
“Permissible”
Of the above removal options, only 100% P removal would result
in a loading rate less than the “dangerous” rate. It appears that
level of removal could feasibly be achieved only by diversion.
At this time, there are five wastewater treatment facilities
in the Delavan Lake vicinity within a distance of about 10 miles
(two plants do not affect the lake). If the existing Delavan Lake
Sanitary District could be enlarged to accomodate all of these
discharges, as well as lakeside residences, with a single regional
treatment facility discharging to Turtle Creek downstream from the
lake, 100% removal would be effectively, and perhaps more economi-
cally, achieved.
It is concluded that 100% removal or complete diversion would
result in a marked improvement in the trophic condition of Delavan
Lake. The improvement could be enhanced--and the period of recovery

-------

shortened--if the outlet dam could be operated to permit maximum
flushing for two or three years.
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources has directed
the City of Elkhorn to institute phosphorus removal (Schraufnagel,
1974). It is estimated that 80% removal at Elkhorn would reduce
the loading rate to the lake to 5.4 lbs/acre/yr or 0.61 g/m 2 /yr.
It is believed this reduction in loading rate would result in a
marked reduction in the incidence and severity of nuisance
algal blooms in Delavan Lake.
2. Non-point sources--The nutrient export loads for Jackson
Creek (see page 15) were derived by subtracting estimated point-
source loads from the loads measured at station B-l . The annual
phosphorus export appears to be somewhat high but may be due to
underestimation of the point-source loads.

II. INTRODUCTION
Delavan Lake is a natural lake in the lower Rock River drainage in
south-central Wisconsin. The level of the lake is controlled by a 14-
foot head dam on the outlet.
The lake is essentially a resort and residence lake. An estimated
6,500 permanent residents live in cottages and homes in the immediate
drainage area (less than one mile in almost 18 miles of frontage is in
public ownership).
Delavan Lake is managed for largemouth bass, panfish, and walleyes;
swimming (one public beach) and boating (one public ramp and seven boat
rental liveries) are other recreational activities. The proximity of the
lake to metropolitan areas insures a heavy recreational use.

IV. LAKE WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
Delavan Lake was sampled three times during the open-water season
of 1972 by means of a pontoon-equipped Huey helicopter. Each time,
samples for physical and chemical parameters were collected from three
stations on the lake and from one or more depths at each station (see
map, page vi). During each visit, a single depth-integrated (15 feet
or near bottom to surface) sample was composited from the stations for
phytoplankton identification and enumeration; and during the last visit,
a single five-gallon depth-integrated sample was composited for algal
assays. Also each time, a depth-integrated sample was collected from
each of the stations for chlorophyll a analysis. The maximum depths
sampled were 8 feet at station 1, 4 feet at station 2, and 50 feet at
station 3.
The results obtained are presented in full in Appendix B, and the
data for the fall sampling period, when the lake was essentially well-
mixed, are summarized below. Note, however, the Secchi disc sumary
is based on all values.

2. Discussion -
The control yield of the assay alga, Selenastrurn capri—
cornutum , indicates that the potential primary productivity
of Delavan Lake was quite high at the time the sample was
collected. The assay results also show that the lake was

-------
10
nitrogen limited. Note the lack of significant response to
increased levels of orthophosphate, until nitrogen was also
added, and the significant increase in yield when only
nitrogen was added.
The lake data indicate nitrogen limitation at the other
sampling times as well (N/P ratios were 5/1 or less, and
nitrogen limitation would be expected).
D. Trophic Condition:
Survey data and the records of others (Leuschow, et al., 1970)
show that Delavan Lake is quite eutrophic. Survey limnologists
observed heavy algal blooms in June and August but noted that only
small, relatively isolated patches of rooted aquatic vegetation
were seen.
Wisconsin records show that Delavan Lake has been treated
with copper sulfate for algae control every year of the period
of record (1950-1970); over 85,000 pounds of the chemical were
applied in the 21-year period (Leuschow, 1972).
Of the 46 Wisconsin lakes studied, 39 had less mean total
and dissolved phosphorus, 37 had less mean inorganic nitrogen,
37 had less mean chlorophyll a, and only 3 had greater algal
assay control yields.
Essentially no oxygen was found in the hypolimnion in June
and August.

V. NUTRIENT LOADINGS
(See Appendix C for data)
For the determination of nutrient loadings, the Wisconsin National
Guard collected monthly near-surface grab samples from each of the tribu-
tary sites indicated on the map (page vi), except for the high runoff months
of April and May when two samples were collected. Sampling was begun in
September, 1972, and was completed in August, 1973.
Through an interagency agreement, stream flow estimates for the year
of sampling and a “normalized” or average year were provided by the Wis-
consin District Office of the U.S. Geological Survey for the tributary
sites nearest the lake.
In this report, nutrient loads for the sampled tributaries were deter-
mined by using a modification of a U.S. Geological Survey computer pro-
gram for calculating stream loadings*. Nutrient loadings for unsampled
“minor tributaries and imediate drainage” (“ZZ” of U.S.G.S.) were esti-
mated by using the nutrient loads, in lbs/m 2 /year, in Jackson Creek at
station B-i, minus the estimated point—source loads, and multiplying
by the ZZ area in mi 2 .
The operator of the Alpine Village Lodge wastewater treatment plant
provided monthly effluent samples and corresponding flow data. The City
of Elkhorn and the Lakeland Nursing Home declined participation in the
Survey, and nutrient loads from those sources were estimated*.
In the following loading tables, the loads given for Jackson Creek
are those measured at station B-i minus the estimated point-source loads.

In the following table, the existing phosphorus loading

Essentially, his “dangerous” rate is the rate at which the
receiving waters would become eutrophic or remain eutrophic; his
“permissible” rate is that which would result in the receiving
water remaining oligotrophic or becoming oligotrophic if mor-
phornetry permitted. A mesotrophic rate would be considered one
between “dangerous” and “permissible”.
