PREFACE
A project agreement between Western Washington University (WWU)
and Region X of the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, (EPA) signed
in September, 1983, provided for reports by the University on prior benthic
biological investigations in Bellingham and Samish Bays and on the infauna
contained in 44 Van Veen grab samples. Twenty of these samples had been
taken in May of 1983 by EPA personnel. The remaining samples were to be
taken by the University as replicates at 12 stations designated by EPA.
Sediment samples taken at each station were to be analyzed for organic
content as total volatile solids (TVS) and particle size distribution, and
these results, along with comparable data from the EPA stations,
coordinated with the data on infaunal benthos.
This report integrates the review of prior work and a report of new
data collected in 1983.
INTRODUCTION
Benthic macroinvertebrates living in the subtidal zone of Bellingham
and Samish Bays are part of a marine ecosystem that is both diverse and
productive. This section summarizes knowledge pertaining to subtidal
benthic macroinvertebrates and their habitats that has been accumulated
over roughly the past 15 years. Included are studies of the physical setting,
the distribution and abundance of invertebrates occurring in the area, and
the importance of macroinvertebrates to other animals inhabiting the local
marine habitat.
Macroinvertebrates are usually defined as all animals retained on a
-------
1 mm mesh sieve. Those living on or in the bottom, the benthos, include a
diverse collection of organisms such as polychaete worms, clams, and
crustaceans. These are eaten by many larger animals such as fishes and
birds. Some invertebrates are harvested and eaten by man. The continued
health of the living resources of the sea-bed is greatly desired, but in the
study area, man's uses of water and shorelines can and have caused serious
degradation of marine benthic communities. Near the City of Bellingham,
solid and dissolved wastes are discharged into nearshore marine waters, and
the harbor is the terminus of a marine highway serving the City of Belling-
ham. Conflicts in use have promoted recent efforts to improve water
quality and mitigate adverse impacts on the marine ecosystem adjacent to
the City of Bellingham.
1. PHYSICAL SETTING
Landforms
Bellingham and Samish Bays are broadly connected embayments situa-
ted in the easternmost part of what is popularly called northern Puget
Sound (Fig. 1). Bellingham Bay is about 24 km (15 miles) south of the
Canadian border and about 200 km (108 miles) from the Pacific Ocean. The
two Bays form a kidney-shaped basin about 26 km long and from 5 to 9 km
wide. Boundaries for the Bellingham-Samish Bay system as a whole are
given by Collias et al. (1966), and are shown on Figure 2. Since the two
Bays are poorly separated, the boundary between them is somewhat
arbitrary. In this review, Bellingham Bay is defined as the waters north of
a line extending from the southern tip of Lummi Island east to Wildcat

-------
Cove (Webber, 1977). Samish Bay includes the waters south and east of a
line extending from the northern tip of Point William northeast to Wildcat
Cove (Collias, et al., 1966). Bellingham Bay is about 18 km in length and
Samish Bay is about 8 km in both length and width.
The waters of Bellingham and Samish Bays are relatively protected.
To the northwest, Lummi Island lies between Bellingham Bay and the
confluence of the Strait of Georgia and northern Rosario Strait. Samish
Bay is connected to Rosario Strait by the passages between Sinclair,
Vendovi, Guemes, and Cypress Islands. The San Juan Islands and Vancouver
Island lie to the west, separating the Bellingham-Samish Bay system from
the open ocean. Along the eastern edge of the Bays, hillsides rise steeply
from sea level to over 458 m (1500 ft) (Sternberg, 1967). At the northern
and southern ends of the basin, the uplands are low, flat floodplains.
Climate
Prevailing winds are southerly throughout the year, but from
November to January, northeast winds are frequent as well. Wind speed
averages about 2 to 6 m/see (7 to 22 km/sec). The strongest winds blow
from the southeast from November to January (Shea et al., 1981).
Precipitation averages about 86 cm (34") per year (Corps of
Engineers, 1978). The wettest months are from October to April; about
three-fourths of the total precipitation falls in this period (Shea et al., 1981;
Collias et al., 1966), In the lowlands most precipitation falls as rain,
running directly down the rivers and creeks into the bays. Only the
Nooksack River drains high mountains. Its discharge, therefore, peaks
twice annually, once when precipitation is at a maximum, and again in
early summer when snows melt in the mountains.
-------
Shoreline Topography
The shorelines and beaches of the Bays are varied, ranging from steep
rock faces to sand and mud flats (Webber, 1977). Along the east and west
shorelines, beaches are typically narrow and steeply sloping, consisting of
rock outcroppings alternating with pockets of sandy to gravelly sediments.
Where bluffs of unconsolidated material front the water, as on the Lummi
Peninsula, Portage Island, and Samish Island, beaches are narrow and
composed of sandy to gravelly sediments. Intertidal sand and mud flats are
found at the heads of both Bays near the points of discharge of the two
main rivers of the system.
Near the city of Bellingham, shoreline and tidelands have been
modified by dirt fill, riprap, bulkheads, and artificial lagoons. Over 80
hectares of shallow tidelands have been filled (Webber, 1977). In Samish
Bay, tidelands are mostly unmodified. However, nearly all of the shoreline
at the head of Samish Bay is delimited by dikes, and riprap has been placed
on parts of the northeast shoreline along the Burlington-Northern Railway
right of way.
Basin Topography
In contrast to the beaches and shorelines, the basin of the Bellingham-
Samish Bay system shows little topographic relief. Mean water depth is
about 26 m (Shea et al., 1981), but in most of the basin is less than 27 m
deep (Corp of Engineers, 1978). The central part of the basin is a gently
sloping plain about 20 to 27 m below mean lower low water (MLLW) (Fig.
3). Deeper water is found just off the southeast end of Eliza Island, where
there is a short, narrow trench of 82-112 m, and just off Post Point where a
small depression is 38 m deep.
Between the 6 and 20 m isobaths the basin rises rapidly to the delta
-------
platforms of the Nooksack and Samish Rivers. The Nooksack delta
platform is at the northern end of Bellingham Bay, and extends about 2 km
south from the river mouth. Since the turn of the century, this delta has
prograded seaward nearly 3 km (Sternberg, 1967). The delta of the Samish
River is larger than that of the Nooksack, rising nearly 7 km from the river
mouth. However, most of this delta was deposited in the distant past when
an arm of the Skagit River flowed into Samish Bay. Presently, the delta is
not prograding.
WaterCharacteristics
The sources, physical properties, and circulation patterns of water in
the study area have been reviewed in detail by Shea et al. (1981), who
incorporate a major oceanographic study by Collias et al. (1966), water
quality surveys of inner Bellingham Bay and the area around Post Point
(Webber, 1978, CH2M Hill, 1976), and present new analyses of data available
up to 1979. Currents in inner Bellingham Bay defined by Webber (1977) as
east of a line between Post Point and the cement plant pier have also been
studied (Corps of Engineers, 1977).
Most oceanic water enters Bellingham and Samish Bays at depth
through the northern end of Rosario Strait between Lummi, Sinclair, and
Vendovi Islands (Fig. 3). The major sill restricting flow in this passage is an
average of 42 m deep. Some water also enters through Bellingham
Channel, passing over a shallower sill between Guemes, Jack, and Sinclair
Islands (Fig. 3). This sill has an average depth of 18 m. Little water flows
into or out of Hale Passage; at either end, sills are only about 5 m deep
(Shea et al., 1981). Collias et al. (1966) believed that water flows northward
along the bottom in Rosario Strait, but Shea et al. (1981), on the basis of
more recent current measurements, concluded that net flow in Rosario

System. Depth contours in meters. Major
sills shown as hatched lines. Sources:

(1967).
-------
Strait is seaward at all depths.
The major source of fresh water in the system is the Nooksack
River. Its average flow is about 10 times that of the Samish River and at
least 100 times that of any of the five creeks entering the system (Collias
et al., 1966).
Over much of the study area, water near the bottom is very similar in
character to that in Rosario Strait. Bottom salinity ranges from 29 to
31°/oo, and is fairly stable throughout the year. Temperature varies from
about 8 to 13 C. Bottom water is warmest in late summer to early fall, and
coolest in winter to spring. Oxygen concentration in water entering from
Rosario Strait shows an annual cycle as well, being lowest in summer to
early fall and highest in winter (Collias et al., 1966). This has been ex-
plained on the basis of oceanic oxygen cycles and stratification in inland
waters.
Currents near the bottom are slow (0.1 to 0.2 m/sec). Surface
currents are somewhat faster (0.2 to 0.3 m/sec), due to a net outflow of
water from the system via the surface layers (Collias et al., 1966; Corps of
Engineers, 1977).
In about the top ten meters of the water column of the bays, salinity
and temperature vary with depth and over time (Collias et al., 1966; CH2M
Hill, 1976). These changes are primarily the result of fresh water input and
seasonal changes in air temperature. Because most fresh water in the
system comes from the Nooksack River, brackish water (salinity less than
20°/oo) is most often found and most extensively distributed in the upper
part of Bellingham Bay, north of Point Frances and Post Point. Fresh
water flows out over the surface of the bay, forming a brackish water layer
usually less than 2 m thick. Winds may occasionally deepen the surface
-------
layer to as much as 4 m. When mixing due to tides or winds is vigorous,
waters may be more or less unstratified except directly off the river
mouths. In Samish Bay, surface salinity ranges from 26 to 29°/oo, except
in the immediate vicinity of the river mouth. Salinity is lowest in winter
when runoff is at a maximum.
Thermal stratification also occurs at times in the water column.
Surface water is warmed in summer and cooled in winter to a greater
degree than bottom water. The system is isothermal from top to bottom in
late fall and early spring, and experiences thermal inversion in winter.
These conditions facilitate mixing of surface and bottom waters by tides
and wind. In summer from about July to September, high surface
temperature allows density stratification that lasts for periods of days to
weeks (CH2M Hill, 1976; unpublished data, STORET System, 1972-1983;
unpublished data, Corps of Engineers, 1982-1983). Oxygen concentration in
bottom water then decreases. This occurs at a time when oxygen
concentration is already lower in the bottom waters than it is at other
times of the year. In 1976, dissolved oxygen below 5 m depth was less than
6 mg/1 at stations off Post Point, but was above 6 mg/1 off Eliza Island
(CH2M Hill, 1976). Summer density stratification and a decrease in
dissolved oxygen were seen in Samish Bay as well (Collias et al., 1966). In
the inner waterways of the city of Bellingham, dissolved oxygen was often
completely depleted at all depths (Webber, 1978). However, this was
probably due to oxygen demand created by effluent from industrial and
municipal sources, rather than from natural causes. Since 1979, even close
to effluent diffusers near the city of Bellingham, oxygen concentration in
subsurface waters has rarely dropped below 6 mg/1, the lower limit for
Class A waters in the State of Washington (unpublished data, STORET
10
-------
System, 1972-1983; unpublished data, Corps of Engineers, 1982-1983).
Studies have demonstrated what appears to be complicated
circulation determined by wind speed and direction, tidal mixing, and water
characteristics (Collias et al., 1966; Corps of Engineers, 1977; Shea, et al.,
1981). Most surveys have been conducted in Bellingham Bay rather than
Samish Bay, and all have been of very short duration. Three main
circulation patterns associated with wind direction have been identified
(Shea et al., 1981). When winds are from southerly directions, as is the case
during most of the year, fresh water tends to be retained in the upper part
of Bellingham Bay. Under these conditions, surface salinity typically
ranges between 20 and 26°/oo over much of the upper bay north of Post
Point, with isohalines oriented along an east-west axis. Winds from the
west or southwest push water to the east, where it then flows down the
shoreline past Post Point. The upper water can remain fairly unmixed;
under these conditions, salinity of 10 to 20°/oo has been measured at the
surface near the city of Bellingham (Collias, et al., 1966). Finally, when
winds are from the north or northeast, fresh water flows south along the
shores of the Lummi Peninsula, Portage Island, and past the southern end of
Lummi Island. When this happens, surface salinity is 15 to 24°/oo on the
western shore, but much higher (27 to 29°/oo) on the eastern shore. Thus,
water can be intermittently fresh to brackish over much of Bellingham Bay
to a depth of about 2 m. From about the 2 to 10m isobaths, salinity of
bottom water may be lowered for short periods of time.
Some effects of tides and stratification on currents near the bottom
were demonstrated by studies in the inner bay near the city of Bellingham
(Corps of Engineers, 1977). Bottom water in the inner bay flows north on
the flood and east and south on the ebb. However, when water is stratified,
11
-------
some bottom water flows in a clockwise eddy in the inner bay rather than
flowing south past Post Point.
Sediments
In the subtidal parts of the basin, natural sediments are mostly fine-
grained. Over large areas of the basin, sediment texture is uniform. Much
of the natural sediment in the basin appears to originate from the system's
streams, and particularly from the Nooksaek River. Sediment is also
eroded from unconsolidated bluffs and rock outcroppings along the
shoreline (Webber, 1977). In general, heavier particles are transported
along the beaches by longshore drift, while smaller, lighter particles are
suspended, settling to the bottom according to gradients in current
velocity. Near the river mouths, fine particles may also be trapped by
surface layers, settling to the bottom only where water is mixed from top
to bottom.
Three major natural sediment types have been described in the
subtidal basin: bay muds, delta platform sands, and lag gravels (Sternberg,
1967). In narrow zones of contact between the major types, transitional
sediments are found. Bay muds, which are clayey silt, cover nearly all of
the basin floors (Fig. 4). In places, the mud contains clay galls as large as 8
mm in diameter. These galls are eroded from clay beds in the slack water
channels of the deltas. They are most abundant in the deepest parts of
Bellingham Bay, and just seaward of the delta front in Samish Bay
(Sternberg, 1967). Shell fragments are found in muddy sediments as well,
concentrated just seaward of the delta fronts and adjacent to the shoreline
north of Post Point.
Towards the delta fronts, sediments are sandier, grading to a fine,
well sorted sand on the delta platforms. Sands in Samish Bay contain more

-------
mud than those of the Nooksack delta platform (Sternberg, 1967).
Coarse sediments are found subtidally in only a few areas. The sill
between Portage and Eliza Islands is composed of coarse gravel, sand, and
shell fragments. This type of sediment is also found in the depression off
Post Point. In the trench off Eliza Island, sediments are sandy (Webber,
1977).
In inner Bellingham Bay, sediments have been modified by discharge
of industrial and municipal waste and by disposal of dredge spoil. Inner bay
sediments range from gray mud to black, anaerobic sludge mixed with wood
chips and wood fibers (Nelson, 1974). Sludge and wood remains predominate
in the vicinity of Whatcom Waterway, and wood chips cover the bottom
near old log rafting sites off the northeast and northwest shores of the
inner bay. Wood chips are generally gravel-sized (about 5 cm in diameter),
while wood fibers either mat on fine sand sieves or pass through to pipette
analysis where they behave like clay particles (Nelson, 1974). In the inner
bay, organic content in sediment is substantially greater than in open
water, especially in the vicinity of Whatcom Waterway. Organic content
(as total volatile solids) is 52.0% in Whatcom Waterway (Webber, 1975),
decreasing rapidly in other parts of the inner bay where it ranges from 12 to
24% (Nelson, 1974). In the outer bay and Samish Bay, organic content
ranges from 5.0 to 11.0% (Webber, 1975).
Sludge and wood fibers were discharged in effluent from the Georgia-
Pacific Corporation's pulp mill. Wood chips have been washed into the
water when cleaning barges. As well, under log rafts, wood fragments
rained down on the bottom. Municipal sewage and solid wastes from
industries other than the pulp mill are now collected, given primary
treatment, and discharged on the bottom off Post Point. Before 1974,
14
-------
several industries, most of which were food processing plants, discharged
untreated effluent into the inner bay. Primary-treated municipal sewage
was discharged there also. These industrial and municipal sources com-
bined contributed about one-fifth of the effluent volume of the pulp mill
(Shea et al., 1981).
The composition and toxicity of pulp mill effluent has changed in the
last ten years (Shea et al., 1981). Prior to 1973, waste streams were
discharged directly into the surface waters of the harbor, mostly into
Whatcom Waterway. Between 1973 and 1979, a primary clarifier was
operated to remove solids from part of the waste. Finally, in 1979, all
effluent was routed to a settling and aeration lagoon. Here, fibrous matter
and dissolved solids are digested and BOD is reduced substantially. The
resulting effluent is discharged on the bottom 2100 m offshore (Fig. 5). In
1979, after startup of the treatment lagoon, about 30% more solids were
discharged than in 1978. However, these solids now consist mostly of
bacteria rather than pulp fibers, and oxygen demand is about one-fifth of
that before treatment (Stanley, 1980).
On the bottom near the pulp mill, sediments were black and anaerobic
due to the accumulation of untreated sludge. Black sediments were seen in
about the northeastern third of the inner bay (Fig. 4). Sediments were a
grey color in the remainder of the inner bay (Nelson, 1974). Sediment color
has not been systematically observed since 1974. Sludge probably is no
longer accumulating in Whatcom waterway, (Stanley (1980), but the dis-
tribution and effect of sludge in the outer bay is unknown at present. Wood
chips should no longer be accumulating. Lop are now stored on land, and
barging operations have been modified to avoid spilling wood chips (Shea et
al., 1981).
15
-------
Toxic substances are still released in Georgia-Pacific's effluent
stream, mostly as dissolved solids. Adsorption onto sediments or direct
effects on biota of the inner bay have not been investigated. Substances in
sulfite pulp mill effluent that are toxic to marine life include resin acids,
lignin degradation products, juvabiones (analogs of insect juvenile
hormones), and fungicides. In addition, chlorine from bleach processes, the
ehlor-alkali plant, and in seawater can form organoehlorine compounds and
chloramines in the presence of dissolved organics and ammonia,
respectively (Shea et al., 1981).
From 1965 to 1973, between 10 and 20 tons of mercury were
discharged from the pulp mill's chlor-alkali plant (Nelson, 1974). A
recovery system was installed in 1973, and discharges have since been well
below standards set by the Federal Government. Mercury from past
discharges still persists in sediments, decreasing rapidly with distance from
the source at the lagoon of the chlor-alkali plant (Nelson, 1974; Stanley,
1980). From 1974 to 1979, mercury concentration in the sediment
decreased in most parts of Whatcom Waterway to about one-tenth to one-
half of initial levels (Table 1). The decrease was generally less than
expected given a reported half-life of mercury in marine sediments of 1.3
years (Nelson, 1974). Between 1979 and 1980, little change occured in
sediment mercury levels (Stanley, 1980).
Sludge, wood chips, and other solid waste remain in the inner bay and
have been periodically redistributed by dredging and open water disposal.
City waterways are subject to continuous siltation and need to be dredged
about every 10 years (Corps of Engineers, 1978). Since 1966, a total of
Q
684,680 m of dredged material has been deposited at three disposal sites
designated by the Department of Natural Resources (Fig. 5). Dredged
16
-------
material was dumped at these sites as shown in Table 2 (F. Hansen, pers.
comm., 1983). Most dredged sediment is probably from the Nooksack River,
which carries a sediment load of about 688,500 m /yr. However, in
Whatcom Waterway before 1979, pulp mill sludge accounted for some of the
material removed by dredging (Shea et al., 1981). Sediment from Whatcom
Waterway was dumped north of Post Point in 1966 (Site A, Fig. 5) and near
Starr Rock in 1969 (Site B, Fig. 5). Dredged material is probably redistri-
buted from the open water disposal sites by currents. Goodwin (1972)
evaluated the 1969 disposal area and decided that fibrous matter and debris
covered much of the area in the inner harbor. Whatcom Waterway was
dredged again in 1974, but these spoils, which were heavily contaminated
with mercury, were placed in an upland disposal site (Nelson, 1974). The
9
newest disposal site (Site C, Fig. 5) has received 456,710 m of dredge
spoil, most of which was granular material from Squalicum Waterway and
from construction projects (Table 2).

BENTHIC MACROINVERTEBRATES
Five major studies of maerobenthos have been conducted within the
Bellingham - Samish Bay area. Sampling methods, locations of samples,
and number of replicates taken are shown on Table 3, All five studies were
reviewed by Shea, et al. (1981) who compiled a composite species list for
Bellingham Bay.
Available information on macroinvertebrates is mostly from inner
BeEingham Bay. In outer Bellingham Bay, studies have largely covered
areas close to shore. There are few quantitative data from Samish Bay.
All quantitative studies were done before 1979, the year Georgia-Pacific
began secondary treatment of its effluent. However, benthos were
qualitatively surveyed in 1980 (Stanley, 1980).
A new composite species list was compiled from published reports,
reviews, raw data in unpublished reports of CH^M Hill to the City of
Bellingham for 1974-1975, and from unpublished raw data of the 1976
subtidal study of Smith (1979). A total of 172 maqroinvertebrate species
was recorded from 1974 to 1977 in subtidal core or grab samples from the
study area (Table 4). Eleven phyla were represented. Most of the species
were polychaete worms, bivalve molluscs, crustaceans, or echinoderms, a
faunistic assemblage typical of most shallow water, temperate benthic
communities. An additional 69 invertebrate species were noted from otter
trawls or beach seines where the primary purpose was to sample fish
populations (Table 5). Most of these invertebrates were large and mobile
animals that are poorly sampled in grabs or cores. Species charactersitic
of soft sediments of the subtidal zone, as opposed to intertidal habitats, are
so indicated (Table 5).

Because quantitative studies were done in different locations and
differed in both objectives and methods, most results are not strictly
comparable. Accordingly, the results and conclusions of each study will be
discussed, followed by a general description of macrobenthic communities
in Bellingham and Samish Bays.
Nelson (1974), in a study of mercury concentration in the benthos of
Bellingham Bay, described four major benthic invertebrate assemblages in
the inner part of the Bay. The innermost waterways of the City of
Bellingham, 1 to 7 m deep, were dominated by the polychaete worm
Capitella capitata. In waters adjacent to Whatcom Waterway (about 10m
deep), the polychaetes Capitella and Terebellides, the clam Macoma, and
the snail Mitrella were dominant. Off Squalicum Harbor and towards the
Nooksack River, dominant species were the tube-building polychaetes
Owenia fusiformis and members of the family Maldanidae, the ophiuroid
Amphiodia, and the small pinnotherid crab Pinnixa. These stations were
about 12m deep. North and west of Post Point within the inner bay, at
about 12-15 m, dominant animals were polychaetes of the family
Maldanidae and genus Glycinde, the clams Axinopsida and Yoldia, and the
ophiuroid Amphiodia.
No satisfactory "indicator" species could be selected for analysis of
mercury in tissues because no species was abundant at a majority of the
stations. Instead, tissue mercury concentrations were measured for each
taxon and averaged for the station.
As expected, mercury levels in the sediments were high at the source,
the chlor-alkali lagoon, and decreased rapidly to background levels of about
2 ppm near Post Point and the Nooksack River delta. Tissue mercury
levels, however, were highest near Squalicum Waterway (1.7 to 2.1 ppm)
34
-------
and fairly low in the chloralkali lagoon (0.3 ppm). Although tissue mercury
concentrations tended to be lower farther from the source than closer to it,
tissue and sediment concentrations were not strongly correlated. It was
hypothesized that inorganic mercury was more quickly methylated in the
well-oxygenated sediments near the marina than in the anoxic sediments of
the chlor-alkali lagoon. The methylmercury compounds formed near the
marina would then be more readily taken up by benthos than the
predominantly inorganic mercury in the lagoon.
Mercury concentrations in muscle tissue of various edible species [i.e.
dungeness crab (Cancer magister), rock crab (C. productus), and shrimp
(Crangon spp.)] caught in the inner bay were also reported. In most cases,
levels were substantially below the F.D.A. safe level of 0.5 ppm. By far
the highest concentration, 0.459 ppm, was found in muscle tissue of rock
crab.
A natural history study (Webber, 1975) included qualitative surveys of
the biota of intertidal beaches, a map of the distribution of eelgrass beds,
and a list of invertebrate species caught in otter trawls and beach seines
and observed during the beach surveys. Numbers and length frequency of
fishes, dungeness crabs (Cancer magister), and three taxa of shrimps
(Crangon spp., Pandalus spp., and Hippolytidae) were listed by trawl
station.
Species composition and numerical abundance of invertebrates and
fishes were roughly similar at trawl stations throughout Bellingham Bay.
Mysids were the most abundant organisms in trawls, and crabs and shrimps
were consistently present as well. Crangon spp. and Pandalus spp. were
found at all stations, but hippolytid shrimps were caught at only two: one
near Eliza Island, and one in the middle of Bellingham Bay. Many of the
35
-------
other large and immobile invertebrates, such as sea pens (Ptilosarcus
gurneyi), bivalves, sea stars (except Pisaster oohraceus), and some of the
prosobranch and opisthobranch molluscs were found probably in subtidal
soft sediments (Table 5). However, their distribution within Bellingham
Bay was not specifically studied.
Fewer invertebrate species were caught in beach seines than in
trawls. Crangon spp. and dungeness crabs were relatively abundant near
shore, but mysids and the other two shrimp taxa were absent.
Species composition of fishes and mobile invertebrates varied little in
monthly trawls or seines over a one year period. The major exception was
that outmigrating juvenile Chinook salmon were present near shore only in
June, July, and August.
The impact of primary-treated municipal sewer effluent on the
macrobenthos near Post Point was studied by C^M Hill (C^M Hill, 1974;
Shea et. al., 1981). Studies began in September 1972, before the Post Point
Sewage Treatment Plant began operation (in May 1974), and continued to
May 1975. Total numbers of organisms and species diversity at up to eight
stations were reported on a quarterly basis. Most stations were within
about 2 km of Post Point, but one station was a control near Portage
bland. Stations were at about 20 to 29 m.
No consistent seasonal or spatial variation in total numbers was
clearly shown. An apparent autumn increase was due to unusually high
numbers at two stations farthest from Post Point in 1973, and at the
station closest to Post Point in 1974. On subsequent dates, numbers at
these stations had decreased to levels similar to those at other stations.
Species diversity, on the other hand, was greater at the control site
than at stations closer to Post Point. Diversity (as defined by the Shannon-
36
-------
Weiner index) appeared to vary seasonally as well, decreasing in autumn
and increasing in spring.
At all stations, diversity and total abundance were similar before and
after the sewage treatment plant began discharging effluent. Total
abundance near Post Point decreased periodically to lower values than were
ever seen near Portage Island. However, since variability in numbers
within stations was not reported, the apparent difference cannot be
demonstrated conclusively.
In 1976, macroinvertebrates were quantitatively sampled at selected
shallow subtidal habitats in Northern Puget Sound (Smith, 1979). Three of
the stations were within the Bellingham-Samish Bay system: in Samish
Bay, near Portage Island, and near Eliza Island. Numerical abundance and
species richness in major taxonomie groups were reported for three depths
at each station. Species lists were available from unpublished raw data.
At all three stations, polyehaetes, bivalves, and amphipods were the
most species-rich and numerically abundant taxa. Ophiuroids were most
numerous in mid-depth to deep water (6 to 16 m).
Although in shallow depths (3-5 m) the vegetative cover differed
between stations, polyehaetes, bivalves, and amphipods were uniformly the
most numerous taxa (Table 6). There were some differences, however.
Decapods were numerous at Samish Bay, where an eelgrass community was
sampled, and at Eliza Island, where red algae and kelps were present. At
Portage Island, where the substratum was bare sand, echinoids (sand
dollars) and phoronids were numerically abundant in addition to
polyehaetes, bivalves, and amphipods.
Benthos was the most species rich and numerically abundant in the
Samish Bay eelgrass community. Numbers tended to decrease with depth,

although at Portage Island, the greatest density of organisms was found at
the middle depth. Portage Island is within the influence of the freshwater
outflow of the Nooksack River, and invertebrates of the shallow stratum at
5 m may occasionally be stressed by low salinity.
Webber (1978) conducted a study to characterize water quality and
benthic biota of inner Bellingham Bay and to contribute biological
information of use in choosing a suitable open water disposal site for
dredge spoil. Water quality, demersal fishes, and benthic invertebrates
were sampled a maximum of four times between May, 1977, and April,
1978. Stations in the city waterways were sampled twice; stations in other
parts of the inner bay were sampled either one or two times.
At most stations, macroinvertebrates consisted primarily of
polychaetes. Gammarid amphipods, cumaceans, and ophiuroids were
numerous at a few stations as well. Bivalves, though present, were never
very numerous.
Species assemblages varied within the inner bay. Benthos in inner and
central waterway stations was impoverished compared to outer waterway
stations, both in terms of numbers and species richness. This was
particularly striking in Whatcom and I&J St. waterways. Here, very few
organisms were found and no species clearly dominated .numerically.
Webber concluded that most benthic invertebrates were severely stressed
by the periodic low salinity, low dissolved oxygen, and high temperatures
observed in these nearshore waters.
Cirratulid polychaetes (mostly Tharyx multifilis) were by far the most
numerous organisms in outer Whatcom and I&J St. water-ways. They were
also dominant at a subtidal station off Roeder Avenue (near I&J St.
waterway).
39
-------
At an open water disposal site near Starr Rock (see Fig. 5), cirratulids
were abundant in some samples, while the polychaete Dorvillea sp. domina-
ted in other samples. Total species richness was fairly high at this
station. Few of the species were present in all samples, however.
Benthos was the most species-rich in Squalicum Waterway. In outer
Squalicum Waterway as well as at a station off the Mt. Baker Plywood
Company (further to the west), the polychaete Owenia fusiformis was the
dominant organism in all samples. In central Squalicum Waterway,
however, two apparent species assemblages were sampled. Qwenia
fusiformis dominated in one group of three samples, but cirratulids,
gammarid amphipods, and cumacea dominated in the other three samples.
Finally, at two proposed open water disposal sites in the inner bay and
a control station at a similar depth nearby in the outer bay, polychaetes
were still fairly species-rich, but were not very numerous. The numerically
dominant taxa were ophiuroids and gammarid amphipods. Since neither
taxon was present in very high numbers, total abundance at these stations
was low compared to that of shallower stations (Table 7). However,
Webber (1978) cautioned that due to low sampling effort, these data may be
inadequate. Similar numbers and species of benthic fishes were caught in
both deeper and shallower water, except that in inner Whatcom Waterway,
no fishes were caught. This corresponded with the near absence of benthic
invertebrates.
No quantitative studies of macrobenthos were conducted in Belling-
ham or Samish Bays between 1978 and 1983. In a qualitative study
monitoring water quality in Bellingham Bay before and after secondary
treatment of pulp mill effluent began (Stanley, 1980), organisms on pilings
and in the sediments of Whatcom Waterway were observed in the field. A

dramatic improvement in water quality was documented between spring of
1979 and spring of 1980. In 1980, barnacles, mussels, and algae were
abundant on pilinp which had been devoid of visible organisms in 1979. In
both years, however, sediments were black and anoxic, and very few
organisms were observed in benthic grabs. One of four grabs taken in 1980
contained a few "bloodworms", but no organisms were seen in the other
three.
In addition to the above studies of maeroinvertebrate communities as
a whole, information exists for individual species of economic importance.
Goodwin and Shaul (1978) give densities of hardshell clams for the subtidal
inland marine waters of Washington. From these data, maps of harvestable
clam beds were compiled (Koons and Cardwell, 1981). For the years 1973
to 1982, commercial catch statistics were compiled by the Washington
State Department of Fisheries (WDF) for shellfish, groundfish, and
midwater fish obtained from the Bellingham and Samish Bay area (D. Ward,
pers. comm., 1983)
Several invertebrate species are harvested for commercial or
recreational use in the Bellingham and Samish Bay area. Washington
Department of Fisheries data include the following categories: dungeness
crab (Cancer magister), oysters (Crassostrea gigas), clams (not specified,
but can include butter clams (Saxidomus giganteus), littleneck clams
(Protothaca staminea and Venerupis japonica), horse clams (Tresus capaK
and T. nuttallii), and soft-shell clams (Mya arenaria) as well as cockles
(Clinocardium nutalli), shrimp (not specified, but probably Pandalus spp. or
Crangon spp.), squid (not specified, probably Loligo opalescens), octopus
(Octopus dofleini) and sea cucumbers (not specified, probably Parastichopus
californicus or Cucmaria spp.). The areas for which statistics were
42
-------
compiled include Hale Passage, parts of Lummi Bay, and waters roughly
between Lummi and Guemes Island, as well as the Bellingham-Samish Bay
system defined in this review.
For the last ten years, dungeness crabs and oysters have together
constituted almost the entire catch of maeroinvertebrates (Table 8).
Pacific oysters (C. gigas), are intertidal in distribution. They are an
imported species, and are grown commercially in Samish Bay, but not in
Bellingham Bay. Since they do not normally spawn in the study area, they
are abundant only where they are seeded.
Dungeness crabs, in contrast, are native to the area and ubiquitous in
the subtidal zone. In a natural history survey of Bellingham Bay, dungeness
crabs were found near shore and in the deeper central part of the bay
(Webber, 1975). They inhabit inner Bellingham Bay as well, and were
absent only in the innermost part of Whatcom Waterway (Webber, 1978).
Commercially harvested clams were not listed by species. The
location of clam harvesting within the region also was not given in catch
data. All of the species included in the "clam" category occur in the
region, primarily in sandy mud to mixed coarse sediments of the low
intertidal to shallow subtidal zone. Hard-shell clams (i.e., butter, little-
neck,and horse clams, and cockles) are as a group found in a coarser range
of sediments (sandy mud to cobble) than the soft-^shell clam, which lives in
mud to sand. Commercially harvestable populations of hardshell clams
(those with a density of 0.63 kg/m* or more as defined by Koons and
Cardwell, 1981) were found off Point Francis on Portage Island, and in a
small area in Hale Passage. No harvestable populations were found in
Samish Bay. The authors noted, however, that the estuaries were poorly
surveyed. Webber (1975) found small numbers of Tresus, Saxidomus, and

Mya on the intertidal sand and mud flats near the mouth of the Nooksack
River. Salinity or other stress may restrict growth of clam species near
the Nooksack River. Nelson (1981) reported that intertidal butter clams
taken from the northern tip of Portage Island were smaller than individuals
of similar ages from either British Columbia or Alaska. He postulated that
salinity stress was the cause of frequent cheeks in growth observed in
individuals from this station.
The other commercially-harvested invertebrates are subtidal in
distribution. Catch data may appear to indicate that these species are
sparse in the study area, but the inference is not necessarily valid. For
example, in otter trawls, Webber (1975) found shrimps (Crangon spp. and
Pandalus spp.) to be widespread in Bellingham Bay. He remarked that
Pandalus spp. might support a small local fishery. Distribution and-
abundance of octopus, squid, various scallop species, and sea cucumbers has
not been determined for the study area. These species do occur in
Bellingham Bay (Webber, 1975; see Table 5); most may occur in Samish Bay
as well.
Role of Benthic Invertebrates in the Study Area
Benthic invertebrates are part of a marine community that includes a
wide variety of biota, including bacteria, maeroalgae and eelgrass,
phytoplankton, fishes, birds, and mammals. The major groups found in the
area are related in a food web characteristic of soft sediment habitats (Fig.
11). This diagram is based on data from several soft sediment stations in
Northern Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca (Long, 1983). While
not specific to Bellingham and Samish Bays, it details general trophic
relationships in the study area.

-------
Most benthic invertebrates rely on the bacteria that break down
organic matter as a primary source of food. Even suspension feeders may
utilize bacteria in addition to phytoplankton. Very few invertebrate
species feed directly on the primary producers of the system:
phytoplankton, benthic macroalgae, and seagrasses. Indeed, algae and
seagrasses are absent in most of the subtidal basin of the study area
(Webber, 1975; Washington State Department of Natural Resources, 1972).
Invertebrates account for a relatively small percentage (about 10%)
of the total catch of marine species commercially harvested by man in the
Washington State Department of Fisheries Bellingham-Samish Bay area
(again, including Hale Passage and some other areas outside the two Bays)
(Table 21). However, small benthic and epibenthic organisms are eaten by
many fish species that inhabit the region (Simenstad, 1979).
The study area is largely estuarine, and young salmon migrating from
rivers and creeks feed close to shore until they are large enough to avoid
predation in deeper water. All the rivers and creeks in the study area
support runs of anadromous fishes (Shea et. al., 1981). The greatest number
of salmon return to the Nooksack River. Accordingly, in spring and
summer the nearshore zone of Bellingham Bay, including waters in the
city's inner harbor, are important routes for out migrating juvenile salmon.
All other shorelines harbor young salmonids as well, primarily in spring and
summer.
Benthic invertebrates and vegetation are also eaten by birds. The
shallow, protected waters of Bellingham and Samish Bays harbor large
populations of ducks, geese, shorebirds, and gulls (Shea et al., 1981). Many
of these species feed on benthic invertebrates (Simenstad et al., 1979).
Loons, grebes, and alcids which are also abundant, feed on benthic and

METHODS
The locations of all sampled stations were selected by EPA, Region X,
and are shown on Figures 6 and 7. Stations E01 - El2 were sampled by
EPA; L01-L12, by WWU.
Stations L01 to LI 2 were designated by EPA as crosses on a plastic
overlay of a navigation chart of Bellingham Bay. These locations were
transferred to a chart and bearings (and angles between bearings) to fixed
shore points were calculated. In the field approximate positions were
established with a hand-held sighting compass. The final determination of
position was made by measuring angles between the fixed points using a
polaris and azimuth circle, with sighting leaves, attached to the highest
point of the bridge of the research vessel, Leona III. When the angles
corresponded to those predetermined on the chart, the vessel was anchored
for sampling. For resampling stations L06, L07, and LOS for TVS in
December (see below) the vessel was not anchored.
At each station two replicate (0.1 m2) Van Veen grab samples were
made for infauna. Color of the sediment, odor, per cent fullness of the
grab, and other observations [for example, the presence of cerianthid
(Anthozoan) tubes which disintegrate in washing the sample ] were noted.
The infaunal samples were field-screened to reduce the volume and
preserved in 10%, buffered formalin. All samples were rescreened in the
laboratory and the material retained on the screen preserved in either 70%
ethanol or 50% isopropanol. In both field and laboratory, the controlling
screen size was 1.0 mm mesh.
For sediment analyses at Stations L01-L12, a third Van Veen grab
sample was taken. The grab was opened at the top and a subsample of

more than 1 kg was taken from the upper 10 cm of the sediment with a
previously unused, polyetheylene seoop. These subsamples were packed in
crushed ice in an insulated container (Coleman picnic chest) where they
remained until removed for TVS analysis. The portion of the sample not
used to determine TVS was capped and refrigerated until size-distribution
analyses were made.
Except as noted below, all TVS determinations were made within 24
hours of collection, and all samples were held at 0 C (ice-water mix) until
analyzed. Prior to analysis, the entire sediment sub-sample was mixed with
a stainless steel spatula. Two weighed (wet) aliquots of sediment from
each subsample, approximately 10-20 grams, were placed in weighed 100
ml. round bottom evaporating dishes, which had been ignited at 550 C for 1
hour minimum. The samples were dried to constant weight at 110 C,
followed by ignition at 550 C for a minimum of 4 hours.
The grams lost on ignition were related to the 105 C dry weight to
obtain the grams of volatile organic matter lost per gram of sediment. The
average of the two determinations per station x 100 was reported as per
cent TVS by weight.
The sediment samples from stations LOS, L07 and LOS, the first
stations visited by WWU on October 10, were removed from the ice chest
on that day and placed in a refrigerator. These samples were not analyzed
until November 1. These stations were resampled on December 12 and TVS
analyses of these latter samples were completed on the day of collection.
A test was made for possible changes in TVS in the sediment collected
at stations L06, L07, and LOS, during the interval between collection and
analysis. TVS at stations L09, Lll, and LI 2, which had been determined
within 24 hours of collection, were redetermined from the original samples
53
-------
at intervals of four and 16 days after collection. Samples from stations
L09, Lll, and LI 2 had been refrigerated following the within-24 hour
determination of TVS.
The ratio between per cent TVS determined within 24 hours of
collection and that determined at some interval following collection
(delayed determination/within 24 hour determination) reflects retention of
TVS during the interval. Samples from station L09 showed retention of
0.95 after 4 days and 1.07 after 16. At stations Lll and L12, the four day
retention ratios were 0.87 and 0.92 respectively. The 16 day retentions
were 1.04 and 0.98. The data from which these ratios were calculated,
however, do not differ from one another significantly (ANOVA; F=2.88;
p=0.12; n=12), and it can be concluded that the TVS determinations for
L09, Lll, and LI2 made after 16 days of storage in a refrigerator as
reliably reflected TVS on the day of collection as did those determinations
made on that day.
From this, it might be argued that the TVS data for stations L06, L07,
and LOS, determined on November 1 from samples held in a refrigerator
since October 10, reliably reflect the actual TVS in the bottom sediments
on the date of collection. These data, however, probably are not from the
same normal distribution of numbers as those from TVS determination
made on December 12 from collections made on that day (ANOVA;
F=32.62; p=0.0004; n=12). Only one set of data for TVS should be reported,
however, and those from the December 12 collection, having been subject
to the same analytical protocol as were all other samples, were the ones
selected.
TVS data for stations E01-E12 were provided by EPA Region X.
Sediment particle size analyses for samples from stations L01-L12
54
-------
were made by a combination of wet sieving for sand fractions and settling
to separate silt from clay.
A sediment sample was wet-sieved through a series of standard sieves
(sizes $ -1 to $ +4 in whole increments). The material retained on each
screen was dried and weighed. The total of the wet-sieved fractions was
reported as sand. Except for a few "pebbles" noted at Station LI 1, no
sediment coarser than sand was encountered.
The material that passed through the $ +4 screen was mixed
(shaken) for 5 minutes in a Biosonic vibrator and poured into a settling
cylinder of approximately 25 cm diameter. The volume of fluid in the
cylinder was standardized to a column height of 39.2 cm with distilled
water, and the contents were mixed and permitted to settle. After 8 hours,
the fluid fraction was carefully siphoned off. Both fractions were then
desiccated at 50-75 C for several days until dry. The weight of the residue
of the fluid fraction was clay (9 $ and smaller particles); that of the
residue of the settled fraction, silt (Folk, 1974, p. 40).
Sediment size data for stations E01-E12 were provided by EPA Region
X.
For water quality at stations L01-L12, samples were taken from 3
points in the water column: -1 m, bottom, and half the distance to the
bottom. The temperature readings were made in the field using a KAHL
water bucket thermometer. Two BOD bottles were filled from the
collecting bottle, one of which was fixed for the Winkler DO test.
Titration for DO and analysis of the seond bottle for pH, total alkalinity,
carbonate alkalinity, and CO2, were according to the techniques of
Strickland and Parsons (1972). Turbidity was measured by a Hach model
2100A turbid-imeter in Jackson turbidity units. Salinity was measured
55
-------
with an Endeco type 102 optical refractometer.
All samples of infaunal maerobenthos were rescreened in the
laboratory on 1.0 mm mesh. The material retained on the screen was
stored in alcohol. Prior to sorting, the samples were lightly dyed with rose
bengal. For sorting, the material was spread out in white enamelled trays
and examined under 2X or higher magnification. Sorters placed organisms
by similarity categories in Petri dishes. Taxonomic determinations were
made by Alice B. Benedict, who also weighed and counted the organisms.
Weights were damp-dry (blotted) weights of alcohol-preserved specimens
(total number by species) to the nearest O.OOlg (Sartorius type 2255).
Identification of all organisms was as specific as possible. Fragments
or incomplete specimens (Cerebratulus sp.), genera in which specific
identification is not possible because of the present state of systematic
knowledge (Tharyx sp. and others), or taxa in which specific determination
requires special preservation or techniques (Nematoda, Nemertea, etc.)
were treated at whatever level was possible.
Because of the very large number of Owenia fusiformis encountered
at station L01, that species was subsampled as follows: each replicate
sample was sorted and all taxa except O. fusiformis counted and weighed as
indicated above. A damp-dry weight of the entire group of O. fusiformis
was determined after which a subsample of not less than 1/1 Oth of the mass
was weighed. The worms in this subsample were removed from their tubes,
counted and weighed. The tubes, including any that did not contain worms,
were counted and weighed. The number and weight of worms for the entire
sample were calculated from these data.
Representative specimens of 50 taxa selected by EPA Region X were
sent to CH2M Hill for verification of our identifications. The species sent
56
-------
for verification are indicated in Table 11, in which the species collected
during this study are listed.
Physical and biological data were derived from methods and
procedures outlined above. Physical data per station comprised one set of
depth, percent by weight of sediment in gravel, sand, silt, and clay, and
percent of sediment in the form of total volatile solids. A set of biological
data for each replicate grab sample included species, number of individuals
per species, and dry-blotted weight by species.
For purposes of reporting, species that comprised 10% of the total
count and/or biomass in a replicate grab sample were designated
dominants.
Bray-Curtis similarity coefficients were calculated for each pair of
samples and matrices of similarity constructed on the basis of these
calculations. One-way analyses of variance and Student-Newman-Keuls
tests of difference between groups were performed. By regression analyses
correlations between the physical and biological parameters estimated by
the several data sets were tested.
All statistical tests are components of Statistical Package for the
Social Sciences (SPSS, 1983) and were performed at the Western
Washington University Computer Center.
Finally, the data were encoded in NODC file type 132 (Benthic
organisms) and a tape of these data provided to EPA, Region X.

RESULTS
Summaries of results appear in this section. Actual data on which
these summaries are based are given in Appendices 1-6. Table 10 is a
compilation of field observations made at each station.
Grabs that were not 70% full were rejected. In most instances, the
bottom at all stations was soft enough to allow adequate penetration. At
station LQ1, however, the grab, although loaded with about 36 kg of extra
weights, required numerous drops before two adequate samples could be
obtained.
The only odor noted in sediments was I^S, which was either "obvious"
or "strong" or "very mild." No odor was detected at 10 stations. "Strong"
or "obvious" f^S was noted in sediment in the vicinity of Whatcom
Waterway (stations E03, E04, and E07, but "no odor" at station EOi (in the
mouth of the waterway); the general vicinity of the Post Point sewage
diffuser (stations LOS and L09); and at one station (El 2) in Samish Bay. At
station LOS near the northeastern edge of the outer Bay, one sample had
"obvious H2S," and the other had none. Odor was not detected at adjacent
station 108. Otherwise, Outer Bellingham Bay was characterized by "very
mild HUS" except at stations L01 and L02 near the Nooksack delta where no
odor was detected. No odor was noted in the inner Bay other than in
Whatcom Waterway, and one of two Samish Bay stations was without odor.

The sediment at all stations except E09 (lower part of inner Bay) was
described as being either gray or black. This notation was modified by
WWU usually by brown (brown-black) in the Outer Bay and by EPA by green
or brown (gray-green or gray-brown) in the inner. The minor differences
noted both in odor and color may partially reflect the subjective
judgements of different observers or may have resulted from seasonal or,
as implied, spatial variations. The inner Bay was sampled in May by one
agency; the outer, in October by the other.
Table 11 is a listing of hydrographie (for L stations) observations and
TVS and size distributions for sediment samples. The surficial sediment in
outer Bellingham Bay, except at station L01 at the edge of the Nooksack
delta, was largely silt (68.4% to 96.4%; mean of 85.7 ^standard deviation
of 9.64%; n=12 stations). Gravel was not encountered and sand (2.6 +_
1.96%) was essentially negligible. Clay fractions were highest at the Post
Point outfall (L09) and at stations in the general vicinity (LOS, LOB, LOS,
and L12) where they accounted for from 15.4 to 31.6% (21.2 +_ 7.7%; n=4).
Otherwise, clay fractions in the outer Bay were small (0.6 to 8.9%).
Station L01 is at the edge of the prograding Nooksaek delta. The firm
sediment here was 32.6% sand, 21.7% silt and 45.7% clay.

Inner Bay sediments (n=9 stations) included gravel (0.7 +_ 1.1.%), sand
(9.2 4- 8.8%), silt (53.2 +_ 9.6%), and clay (37.0 +_ 7.63%) and were more
variable, but all contained more clay than did the outer Bay.
The two samples from Samish Bay were dissimilar. At station Ell,
the sediment was 78.4% sand, 11.1% silt, and 10.3% clay. At E12, the
bottom deposits were 8.8% sand, 59.8% silt and 31.5% clay.
Total volatile solids in the outer Bay sediment varied from 5.5% at
the edge of the Nooksack delta to 10.0% in the vicinity of the sewage
outfall. The highest values were at the stations close to the diffuser.
Indeed, if the two stations most influenced by the Nooksack are excluded,
the outer Bellingham Bay sediment had a reasonably high and uniform (8.6 +_
0.94%; n=ll) organic content. In the inner Bay, two stations near Whatcom
Waterway (£03 and E04 adjacent to the Georgia Pacific Lagoon and Port of
Bellingham Terminal) had the highest TVS: 14.8 and 11.9% respectively.
All those stations in the Squalicum and Whatcom waterway vicinities (E02,
EOS, 104, EOS, E06 and E07), considered together, had higher TVS (10.3 +_
2.57%; n=6) than was found in the outer Bay. Otherwise, the organic
content of the inner Bay sediments was lower and more uniform (6.4 +_
0.88%; n=3) than that of the outer.
The two stations in Samish Bay differed in TVS as in other ways noted
above. Station El 1, at which the sediment had no odor of H9S and was
Li
78.4% sand, had only 3,0% TVS, the lowest organic content encountered.
At station El 2, where there was a strong odor of H^S and the substrate was
91.3% silt and clay, the organic content was 7.9%.
Although never obvious in the sediment samples taken at stations
L01-L12, wood chips, fibers and shell fragments sometimes were left on
the -1, 0, +1 and (once) on the +2 screens. These materials were noted
62
-------
at all L stations except L09, and LID. At L04, 3.1%; at Lll, 2.7%; and at
L01, 2.3% of the total weight was organic particles (including shell
fragments). Otherwise, less than 1% of the samples was fibers and shell
remains.
The distribution of the 24 stations on a sand-clay-silt triangular plot
(Figure 9) shows the separation of the sandier Ell and L01, and a fairly
complete distinction between the Inner Bay (I Station except El 2) and
outer Bay (L stations).
Table 12 is a species list, although certain of the entries are higher
order taxa for reasons given above. The sequence of listing is that of the
National Oceanic Data Center (NODC) Taxonomic Code. Readers
interested in stations at which species were encountered or lists of species
by station will find these data in the appendices. Dominant species in each
replicate sample are listed in Table 13.
Summary biological data by station are presented in Tables 14 and
15. These data are consistent with treatment of the infauna as comprising
four assemblages or communities in Bellingham Bay, and a fifth in Samish
Bay, and these are described below.
The Owenia Community of the Delta;
The infauna of stations E01, L01, and L02 was dominated by the
tubieulous polychaete, Owenia fusiformis, which accounted for 77.9% of
the individuals and 25.2% of the mass in our samples. Other polychaetes
identifiable only as Tharyx sp. made up 10.9% of the total number of
individuals and 5.5% of the biomass of this assemblage. The remaining
11.2% of individuals and 69.3% of biomass were destributed among almost
60 species. Diversity was, at least for Bellingham Bay, moderate, with
values depressed by the predominance of O.fusiform is. Other faunal

components numerous in this community included the polychaetes
Cirratulus eirratus, Terebellides stroemi, the amphipod, Protomedeia sp,
the tanaid, Leptochelia dubia, and ostroeods (Myodocopa).
The Owenia community occupied fairly shallow water (5.7 to 10.7
m). Salinity in October was normal, temperature slightly lower than in the
deeper outer Bay. Station L01, which had the highest content of sand, also
had the lowest diversity resulting from the very large numbers of (X_
fusiform is. Otherwise, the sediment of the delta/Squalicum region was
largely silt or silt and clay. TVS was in the lower range throughout.
The Bellingham inner harbor, Tharyx Community:
EOS, E04 and 107 are in the Bellingham inner harbor. Owenia was
present at E03, but not at either E04 or E07. Tharyx sp. dominated in the
harbor, accounting for 64.9% of the individuals and 13.7% of the biomass.
Another polychaete, Dorvillea annulata, which was present but not
abundant in the delta, accounted for 21.1% of the numbers and 3.2% of the
mass at these stations. Glycinde picta (polychaete) and Mysella tumida
(bivalve) both widespread in Bellingham Bay, were more numerous in the
inner harbor than were the other members of the relatively impoverished
fauna. Most of the biomass was in a few, relatively large individuals (see
Table 13).
The number of individuals, total biomass, species richness and index
of diversity at E03 were comparable to those in the delta and near
Squalicum Harbor. All of these parameters were considerably lower in the
Whatcorn Creek Waterway and at E07. The dominance of Tharyx at E07
reflected the paucity of other forms rather than a large number of even
this species. At E07 near the Port of Bellingham, richness (number of
species) and diversity were the lowest encountered; the number of
77
-------
individuals and total biomass, among the lowest.
Depth in the inner harbor is the result of dredging activity (11.3 to
14.2 m) possibly except at 103 (4.5 m) where sand comprised 18.1% of the
sediment. This staton, at the edge of the Georgia Pacific sewage lagoon
may have reflected relatively undisturbed bottom conditions. Otherwise,
the sediments were silt with a high clay content and a small amount of
sand. TVS values were high in the inner harbor.
The Tharyx Community of the inner Bay and north outer Bay;
The dominance of Tharyx extends to inner Bellingham Bay and the
northern part of the outer Bay (our stations E02,106, EOS, and LOS). Here
Tharyx accounted for 68.5% of the individual organisms and 22.2% of the
biomass of our samples. The presence of other species which were abun-
dant enough to account for at least 10% of either numbers or mass at at
least one station, however, justifies considering the faunistic assemblage of
this region to be a third, recognizable community. Protomedeia sp were
5.0% of individuals; the bivalve, Axinopsida serricata, present in the delta
but not the inner harbor, 3.9% (this species dominated much of the outer
Bay); Glycinde picta, 2.5%; ludorella sp. (cumacean), 2.0% Also notably
present were the bivalves Psephidia Iprdi and Nuculana tennis and the
polychaete Tauberia gracilis, all of which were more abundant in the outer
Bay. Glycinde was a dominant in the biomass of three stations, but the
dominants of this category were often clams or large polychaetes with high
individual weights.
Species richness in the inner Bay/north outer Bay Tharyx-dominated
assemblage was about as high as was that of the delta and Squalicum
region. With the notable exception of station 109 (biologically resembling
the outer Bay community) the number of organisms was also comparable,
78
-------
rt
but the biomass was somewhat lower. The value of 35.46g/0.1m at LOS
(replicate 1 in table 14) is attributable to a single Molpadia intermedia (sea
cucumber) that weighed 23.38g. Diversity and species richness in this inner
Bay Tharyx community was comparable to that of the delta.
Station E02, which actually is within the area otherwise occupied by
the Owenia community, biologically resembled the Tharyx-dominated, inner
Bay. This station lies in the dredged Squalicum Creek Waterway near the
entrance of Squalicum Harbor.
Station EOS, which is within the new disposal site (see Figure 7), had a
much higher than average content of sand (23.1%) in the surficial
sediment. This station also had more Owenia than had any other in this
group. Station E10, near the diffuser for the Georgia Pacific Lagoon, also
had a high sand content (23.5%). Otherwise, the inner Bay sediments were
similar to those of the harbor. TVS values were slightly lower.
The Axinopsida Community of the outer Bay:
Axinopsida serricata was numerically dominant (22.6%) in the outer
Bay, but overwhelming numerical dominance such as that of Owenia and
Tharyx in the inner Bay no longer obtained. While a single species of the
inner Bay or delta accounted for at least 65% of all individuals, in the
majority of outer Bay stations the 12 most abundant species accounted for
less than 60% of the total. The outer Bay numerical dominants and the
percentage of each were: Axinopsida serricata, 22.6; Pen tarn era populifera,
21.3; Tharyx sp., 8.3; Amphiuridae 6.8; Tauberia gracilis 6.7; Eudorella sp.,
4.9; Acilia castrensis, 4.4; Nucula tenuis, 2.9; Myodocopa, 2.2; Mysella
turn Ida, 1.2; Glycinde picta, 0.9%; and Nereis procera, 0.4%. Even this
listing, however, requires qualification. The holothurian, Pentamera
populifera, was abundant only at L10, and absent from stations except that
79
-------
and L07. Tharyx sp. was abundant only at stations L04, L05» L06 and L07,
although encountered at all except LI 2, Eudorella sp., Nucula tenuis,
Mysella tumida (bivalve), Aeelia castrensis (bivalve), and amphiuridae
(brittle stars) were abundant only at stations L07, LOS, L09, L10, Lll, and
LI 2. Clearly, in the outer Bay, although Axinopsida and Tauberia seemed
uniformly distributed, richness, numbers and biomass increased from north
to south.
The large burrowing anemone, Pachycerianthus fimbriata, although
never numerous, was a dominant in the biomass of one-third of the samples
of the outer Bay. Also among the species dominant in biomass were large
polychaetes (Heteromastus filobranchus, Nereis proeera Gonadia brunnea),
the Washington clam (Saxidomus giganteus), and an unidentifiable
nemertean (probably Cerebratulus).
Station L10, the most removed from the developed shoreline of the
City of Bellingham, had both the highest number of organisms and the
greatest biomass of the sampled areas of the outer Bay. Even the highest
values for richness, productivity (as indicated by standing stock), and
diversity of the outer Bay, at those stations farthest removed from the
City, however were only comparable and sometimes lower than those for
the delta, the vicinity of Squalieum Harbor, station EOS in the inner harbor,
or stations in the inner Bay other than E09. Indeed, two of the outer Bay
stations, LOS and LOS, were among the poorest in number of species and
rank along with LOS and L09 as lowest in numbers and (with E07) biomass.
The outer Bay sediment was predominantly silt (84.7 +_ 9.4%; n=13)
The highest clay content (24.8 +_ 8.3%; n=3) was found at stations L08, L09,
and LI 2, those closest (and down drift) from the Post Point sewage
outfall. TVS in the outer Bay was 8.2 + 0.8% (n=10) if stations LOS, L09,
80
-------
and LI2 (TVS of 9.6 +_ 0.4%) were not included.
The Samish Bay Biota
The infauna of Samish Bay, as revealed by four samples made at two
stations, may be considered richer and more diverse but probably not more
abundant than that of most of Bellingham Bay. The most numerically
abundant faunal components were juvenile crabs (27.1%), tanaidaceans
(12.6%), amphiuridae (10.2%), myodocopan ostracods (9.0%) and the bivalve
Psephidia lordi (93.9%). Brittle stars alone accounted for 66.6% of the
bio mass.
These stations were dissimilar in both TVS content and particle size
distribution of the sediment.
One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to test the null
hypothesis that the biological parameters (number of species, count, and
biomass) were drawn from the same population (HQ: yj = u % = ... u _
where n=22 is the number of stations sampled). The alternative hypothesis
is that at least one station mean differs from the other stations means (Hj
: there exists i 4 j such that p j 4 u j). The ANOVA indicated that for
each individual variate, there were significant differences.
Student-Newman-Keuls (SNK) tests were used to sort the station
means into homogenous subsets (those which do not differ significantly,
pairwise). Results of the tests for each of the variates: number of
individuals, biomass and number of species are summarized on pages 82, 83,
and 84, respectively.
The SNK test of means of number of organisms per station (page 82)
separates L01 from all others, and the biological data (see Table 13)
identify the origin of this distinction as a very large number of the
tubiculous polychaete, Owenia fusiform is found primarily in one sample.

When the SNK test is applied to station means for total dry-blotted
weight, the test recognizes two groups or subsets having different
population means, unfortunately, the test is unable to determine to which
of these subsets most of the stations should be assigned. Stations L06, E07,
LOS, L04, E09, and El2 belong only to the group having the smaller
population mean, and station L02, only to the other (see page 83). At least
these non-overlapping means may be considered to be in separate subsets
(Zar, 1974, p. 154). The stations having the smaller population means are
found in the Tharyx communities of the inner harbor of the inner Bay/north
Outer Bay and the northern part of the Axinopsida community of the outer
Bay (see Table 13), but no clear pattern of distribution emerges. Station
L02, the only non-overlap member of group B, is one of three delta
stations.
In the SNK test of species richness (means of number of species per
sample) eight subsets having different population means results (groups A-H
on page 84), but the test fails to identify to which of from two to six of the
subsets virtually all of the station means should be assigned. Stations E07,
L06, LOS, E04, L09, LOS and L04 (group A) are not from the same
population (or subset) as are stations LI2, El2, L07, L10, E03, L02, LOS,
Lll, E02, E09, L01, E06, EOS, and Ell (group G) or LOS, Lll, ... EOS, Ell
and E01 (group H). The test can not assign most of the stations in groups G
and A to one subset or the other, although both groups of stations differ
from subset A. Further, if station L04 (which may fit either group) is
ignored, groups A and F (L12, E12, L07, L10, E03, L02, L03, Lll, E02, E09,
and L01) are different subsets. It is also arguable that groups B and C
differ from H, but not from G. (See SOKAL and ROHLF, 1969, page 242).
The stations comprising the set with the lowest population mean
85
-------
(group A) are in both the Tharyx community of the inner harbor and the
Axinopsida assemblage of the outer Bay. Four of these stations, EOT, L04,
LOS, and LOB, also belong to the group having the lower mean biomass
(group A stations not also in group B on page 83). The separation of A
stations from G and H stations, however, may not be related to distribution
or community composition since the latter (non-A stations) occur in all
areas of the Bay.
In view of the small number of samples per station and often large
variance at many stations (see table 14 for data) an alternative
interpretation of the SNK test results is that a Type II error may have been
made in the analysis of variance (see Zar, 1974, page 154).
Similarity dendrograms based on all species (Figure 10) and on
dominant species alone (Figure 11) show often wide disparity between
/
replicates at single stations. Biological evidence dealt with above to the
contrary, the entire set of 44 samples does not separate into meaningful
subsets on the basis of number, weight, or number of species.
In comparisons of all the data for each replicate, El 2-1 and El 2-2
have 92% dissimilarity and only the two replicates from L04, LOS, L10,
EOS, EOT, and E06 have less than 50% dissimilarity (see Figure 10).
If only the dominant species are considered, L04 retains less than 50%
dissimilarity (LOS, L10, E03, EOT and E06 have greater than that) but is
joined by L06, E01, E04, and Ell (see Figure 11).
In either treatment, the samples most alike (LI 0-1, L07-2, L04-2 and
E09-2; L04-1 and El 1-2; and LI2-2 and LI 1-1 in Figure 10; and E06-1 and
L06-2; and L05-2 and L04-2 in Figure 11) are from separate stations and
often separate biological assemblages.

Correlations between biological and physical data were sought in
regression analyses. Appropriate statistics of these analyses appear in
Tables 16 to 19.
The most striking result of regression analysis was that although there
was often a significantly non-zero correlation between variate pairs, the
R^ values were quite low. This means that where there was a significantly
non-zero correlation, a very low precent of the variation in the ordinate
variable (i.e., count, weight, number of species, or TVS, in Tables 16, 17,
18, and 19, respectively) was accounted for by the variables in the abscissa.
Regression analyses indicate that the total number of organisms in
samples vaired directly with the number of species present and with the
clay content of the substrate. The number of organisms vaired inversely
with depth and with the percent of silt. The correlations with depth and
silt may be the same: the deeper parts of the Bay also are the siltiest. The
inverse relationship between number and silt plus clay (the reciprocal of
sand) and silt plus sand (the reciprocal of clay) plus a lower value of R for
silt than for clay (Table 17) indicate that the positive correlation with clay
is of less predictive value than the negative correlations with silt and
depth. A positive correlation between number of individuals and number of
species seems of limited value.
The total mass of organisms in the samples varied directly with the
number of species and with the percentage of sand plus silt (the reciprocal
of clay). As expected, there was an inverse relationship with clay. The
correlations of mass with number of species and number of individuals with
number of species would be more useful if a comparable relationship
between number of individuals and mass were demonstrable, but the
analysis did not support that.

DISCUSSION
Perhaps the most obvious difference between present and previous
observations of the condition of the sediment of Bellingham Bay is the
apparent lower organic content of the surface deposits of the inner Bay and
harbor area. In Whatcom Creek Waterway where Webber (1975) found TVS
of surfical sediments to comprise 52%, we observed values of 8.1, 8.7, 9.8,
11.9, and 14.8. Nelson's (1974) range of 12 to 24% TVS in the inner Bay
again substantially exceeds ours of 8.1 to 14.8 with only two points of
overlap (for the stations near the harbor) and 5.6 to 7.6 (for the rest of the
inner Bay). In the outer Bay, Webber (1975) found TVS as high as 11% of
total sediment. Our range of 5.5 to 10.0% does not differ substantially
from this. The lower organic content of inner Bay sediment probably
resulted from many altered management practices (see sediments section
of Introduction).
The distribution of sand, silt and clay observed in 1983 corresponds
reasonably with prior observations (Sternberg, 1967; Nelson, 1974).
Subjective evaluation of such attributes as color and odor are difficult to
relate to prior ones. Our observation of "strong" or "obvious" I^S in or
near Whatcom Waterway and Nelson's (1974) "black anaerobic sediments"
seem to correspond well (yet one station at the mouth of this waterway had
no odor in 1983). The degree to which change has occurred in the harbor
area—indeed, even whether it has—is difficult to assess from these
subjective criteria.
A comparison of species we encountered in sediment samples (see
Table 12) and those previously reported from grab samples (Table 4) is
96
-------
offered in Table 20. There is good correspondence, especially in those
species that dominate assemblages. More than half of the species (or other
taxa) rated on the lists are common to both. Our list includes 68 forms not
previously noted, and this may represent refined taxonomy, or, more likely,
increased sampling of the outer Bay. Eighty-two of the entries in Table 4
are not on our species list. That tabulation, however, was made from
investigations that included the intertidal zone and hard substrate areas.
Such species as Balanus glandula and Hemigrapsus oregonensis, for
example, rarely if ever occur subtidally. Protothaca staminea is mainly a
mid-intertidal clam of gravelly beaches. Eudistylia vancouveri is not
usually found in soft sediment. Further, the likelihood of finding these
species (and many others) in grabs seems to us to be low.
The assemblages of species we noted also have been observed by
others. Nelson (1974) and Webber (1978) found Owenia fusiformis dominant
in the Squalicum Harbor area and as far west as the Nooksack. Webber
found Tharyx sp. by far the most numerous species in the harbor and inner
Bay. Nelson cited Capitella as dominant in waterways and the inner
harbor. Whether this apparent difference is the result of changes in the
Bay during the past decade is unclear at this time but seems likely.
Northwest of Post Point, Nelson found an assemblage dominated by
maldanid polychaetes, Glycinde, Axinopsida, Yoldia and Amphiodia. In this
region, we found a community dominated by Axinopsida serricata, Tharyx
sp., Amphiuridae (family that includes Amphiodia), Tauberia graeilis,
Glycinde picta, and other species.
The quantitative aspects of recent and previous investigations are
difficult to compare because samples have been taken with different
devices, some of which are not standard. If, however, available data are

-------
standardized to number of individuals per 0.1 m (the form in which we
reported ours), there is an apparent increase (see below) that almost defies
reason—at least, on biological grounds.
In the region we have characterized as the Nooksack delta to
Squalicum Harbor, Webber (1978) found 247 to 536 organisms. We found
902 to 13,595. Webber counted 110 to 200 organisms in the Bellingham
harbor; we, 80-1,859 (mean of 820.7). Webber reported 30-235 in the inner
Bay; we, 190-2,459 (mean of 1,184). Shea et al (1981) reported 20-48
individuals in the vicinity of Post Point (outer Bay). Smith (1974) found 247
in 9 m at Eliza Island and 947 in the same depth at Portage Island (both
outer Bay). Our range for the outer Bay was 17-1,005 (mean of 194.7).
In Samish Bay, Smith found 748-786 organisms in 10-16 m depths. We
found 157-529 at 15-16 m. Our station L07 (27.4 m) is closest to Smith's
Portage Island station (Eliza Island was not sampled in 1983). At L07, we
counted 139 and 350 organisms: a mean of 244.5 to compare to Smith's 247.
If the prior data are compared directly to ours, there has been an
apparent enormous increase (perhaps 3X) in the fauna (number of
organisms) in the delta, a comparable (perhaps even 4X) increase in the
harbor and, possibly, an even greater one in the inner Bay. The numbers
reported by Shea imply a comparable increase in the outer Bay; those by
Smith, do not.
Smith's data for Samish Bay correspond closely to ours.
There are, however, reasons to exercise caution in comparisons.
Smith sampled with a diver-operated airlift. Webber and Shea used Van
Veen grabs, but Webber sometimes subsampled his. Webber screened to 1
mm; Smith to 2 (see Table 3).
99
-------
Species assemblages identified in this study are most obvious in
qualitative analysis of dominant species (Table 13). When the quantitative
parameters of numbers, biomass, or species richness are used in statistical
or other quantitative analyses, patterns are less clear. In particular,
although numbers, biomass, and species richness did correlate significantly
with some of the physical factors measured, the percent of variation
accounted for was always quite low, restricting the predictive value of
results. Cluster analysis gave unclear results as well, even when only
dominant species were used. Thus, even though patterns of qualitative
dominance were reasonably clear, the dominant species varied
tremendously in their absolute numerical abundance from station to station
and within replicates of a given station.
Regression analyses (see Table2D) indicate that the total number of
organisms in samples varied directly with the number of species present
and with the clay content of the substrate. The number of organisms
varied inversely with depth and with the percent of silt. The correlations
with depth and silt may be the same: the deeper parts of the Bay also are
the siltiest. The inverse relationship between number and silt plus clay (the
reciprocal of sand) and silt plus sand (the reciprocal of clay) plus a lower
value of R2 for silt than for clay (Table 16) indicate that the positive
correlation with clay is of less predictive value than the negative
correlations with silt and depth. A positive correlation between number of
individuals and number of species seems of limited value.
The total mass of organisms in the samples varied directly with the
number of species and with the percentage of sand plus silt (the reciprocal
of clay). As expected, there was an inverse relationship with clay. The
correlations of mass with number of species and number of individuals with
100
-------
number of species would be more useful if a comparable relationship
between number of individuals and mass were demonstrable, but the
analysis did not support that.
The number of species decreased with depth and silt and with organic
content of the substrate. A positive correlation of number of species with
sand may be simply the reciprocal of this since the sandier stations are also
n
shallower and have lower TVS. Ignoring low values of R for the regression
of number of species against both sand and silt plus clay (Table 18), these
relationships make ecological sense and have predictive value.
The correlations between organic content of the substrate (Table 19)
and particle size distribution support other generalizations based on
regression analyses. TVS varied directly with silt (and silt plus clay) and
inversely with sand (and sand plus clay). The lack of an identifiable
relationship with mixtures of sand and silt is to be expected.
101

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
1. The organic content of the surface sediment of inner Bellingham Bay,
especially the inner harbor, was substantially lower in 1983 than in
1974 or 1975.
2. The infaunal macrobenthos of Bellingham Bay, especially that of the
inner Bay, consisted mainly of the species previously reported to
occur there. The dominance of Capitella capitata, noted in the
waterways and inner harbor in 1974, no longer obtained, nor were
maldanid polychaetes, dominant at Post Point in the same year,
abundant at the sampled stations in 1983.
3. There were four more-or-less discrete species assemblages in
Bellingham Bay. The Nooksack delta supported an assemblage of
some 60 species overwhelmingly dominated by the polychaete, Owenia
fusiform is. This community blended into that of the Bellingham inner
harbor in the vicinity of Squalicum Harbor. The inner harbor,
however, supported no more than 40 species dominated by a
polychaete species of the genus Tharyx, but number of individuals,
total biomass, and diversity, were low. Inner Bellingham Bay was
inhabited by an assemblage of which Tharyx sp. was a numerically
dominant species. Richness (up to 56 species), number of individuals
and biomass were higher than in the harbor. The inner Bay
community blended into an assemblage characterized by the bivalve
Axinopsida serricata in the outer Bay. The outer Bay had more
species (numerical dominance is shared by more forms resulting in
higher diversity) than occurred in the inner. Number of species,
individuals, biomass, and diversity showed an apparent increase on a
102
-------
north-south gradient throughout the Bay, but number of individuals
and biomass were highest in the low diversity delta.
4. The number of organisms per unit of bottom area encountered in 1983
was very substantially higher than that previously reported for
Bellingham Bay. The magnitude of this apparent change, especially
when the differences in collection and treatment techniques employed
is considered, argues for reasonable caution in interpretation, but is
consistent with a generally positive view of the effectiveness of
management procedures by public and private agencies during the last
decade.
5. Statistical analyses of the data generally were disappointing because
of the limited number of data points per station. Direct relationships
between organic content and the proportion of silt in the sediment,
the species richness and the proportions of sand, and the number of
species and mass and number of individuals were demonstrable. Of
less predictive value were direct relationships between the number of
individuals and the number of species and the number of individuals
and the proportion of clay in the sediment. An indirect relationship
between the number of species and the organic content of the
substrate is considered important, although the probability that any of
these apparent correlations may be due to chance is fairly substantial.
6. The infauna of Bellingham and Samish Bays were qualitatively
different.
