The Ceriodaohnia reproduction bioassay conducted by DEM is performed u-nder the guidelines described by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in its document entitled "Methods for Estimating the Chronic Toxicity of Effluents and Receiving Waters to Freshwater Organisms" (EPA-600/4-85-014). This test is conducted in order to estimate the effluent or toxicant concentration at which no suppression of reproduction of the test organism will occur. The Cladoceran Ceriodaohnia dubia (previously referred to Ceriodaohnia reticulate) is utilized as the test organism by this method in a seven-day, static -replacement test. Effluent concentrations of 0.01%, 0.1%, 1.0%, 10.0%, 25.0%, 50.0%, 75.0% and 100% were tested in this most recent series with the previous tests run at concen- trations of 10.0%, 25.0%, 50.0% and 100%. These analyses represent samples of effluent collected prior to chlorination. The 1983 test was conducted with samples collected on a daily basis with the test concentrations being replaced daily using the sample collected the previous day. The 1985 series of tests were conducted on a single effluent sample collected the day prior to test initiation and used to replace the test solution on alternate days following the beginning of the test. The 1986 tests were conducted with dilution water obtained from Lake Johnson, located in Raleigh, N.C. which had been filtered through polyethylene screening and diatomaceous earth. The 1983 series utilized water collected from Little Polecat Creek at Randolph County SR-2113 as the test control and dilution water. a The Ceriodeohnit reproduction bioassay is initiated by isolation of adult Ceriodaehnia which bear near -term embryos in the brood sac. These adults are checked at one hour intervals and young born during the previous hour removed and grouped by hourly age. The test is initiated when a sufficient number of young, or neonates have been produced within a four hour span to place one neonate in each of ten individual one ounce polystyrene test chambers per test concen- tration. Each test chamber is then fed approximately 0.05 ml of fermented trout chow food as specified in the EPA Methods document and again each successive day of the test. The lest concentrations are replaced on a daily or alternating day basis after initiation of the test. The adult or primary test organism alone is transferred from the old to new solution by means of an eye dropper pipette. At this time the adult mortality and the number of young produced are counted and noted for each test organism, as well as measurements of test concentration dissolved oxygen and pH for both the old and new solutions. Test solution temperature is maintained at 256C through incubation and photoperiod at 14L/10D by means of a timed light source for the duration of the test. Test endpoints are determined as percent mortality of the adult or primary Ceriodaehnia and as the mean number of young produced in each test concentration. SUMMARY Comparison of mortality data observed in the 1983 and 1985 effluent tests of the High Point East WWTP shows a marked decrease of toxicity as mortality illustrated in Table 1. Also noteworthy is the increase in reproduction with the 1983 test having mean reproduction per adult in the 25% concentration of 0.0 young and the 1985 test having mean reproduction in 25% effluent of 25.4 young, a figure equal to most good control tests. For the Randleman WWTP tests, comparison of mortality results for 1983 and 1965, as seen in Table 2, shows very similar trends with even greater reduction of acute toxicity at 50% effluent concentrations. Reproduction by concentration reached its peak at a mean of 39.1 young per adult in the 1985 25% effluent concentration of Randleman as compared to a mean reproduction of 0.0 in the 1983 10% concentration. Taking into account testing variations occurring between the two years that these analyses took place, substantial reductions in effluent toxicity levels are implied by the data recorded. Table 1.

All sites were roughly comparable to sites previously surveyed in August 1982. The purpose of the 1985 survey is to assess any changes in water quality over this two year period. Methods A semi -quantitative sampling methodology was employed at all sites (Division of Environmental Management 1983). The same methodology has been used for prior Deep River surveys (including BWMP sampling), allowing an assessment of temporal changes in water quality. An attempt was made to sample all microhabitats, using a variety of collection methods. The typical sampling routine takes 4-6 man-hours of field time. All samples (10/sitel were field picked, and preserved in 95% EtOH. Organisms were identified in the lab and classified as Rare 1-2 specimens), Common (3-9 specimens) or Abundant (10 specimens). The primary output from this type of sampling is a complete species (or taxa) list, with an indication of relative abundance. This data can be interpreted in two ways. First, one may examine spatial and temporal trends in taxa richness. Stress conditions eliminate the more sensitive taxa, leading to an overall reduction in tax& richness. Similar trends are expected in the number of unique taxa found at each site. "Unique" taxa are defined as those taxa found at only one station within a particular data set (Winner et al. 1980). A second method of analysis is the use of indicator communities. For example, the taxa associated with high organic loading/low dissolved oxygen are well known. Likewise, some tax& are often associated with toxic conditions. Site Locations (Figure 11 Minor changes were made at two sites. Station 8 (Coleridge) was moved upstream to SR-2628. This change was made to avoid the effects of the hydro dam now operating in the Town of Coleridge. Also the Richland Creek site was moved downstream, to as to be below the new discharge from the High Point East Side WWTP. Station • Location Dischargers 2 SR-1114, Guilford Co.

These results are summarized in Figure I and Tables 2-4. Tables 2A and 2B present taxa richness by group for the 1983 and 1985 surveys respectively, with the absolute change between years listed in Table 2C. These results are also graphically illustrated in Figure 1. Two sites indicated significant changes in water quality conditions. A decline was observed at the Richland Creek site (R) where the amount of treated waste had increased between 1983 and 1985. The greatest improvement was seen at Station 2. This stream segment was affected by effluent from the Jamestown effluent in 1983, which comprised up to 80% of the stream flow during low flow conditions. The Jamestown waste is now routed to the High Point East Side WWTP. Small positive changes were recorded at Stations 3 and 5, particulary for the Ephemeroptera. Larger positive changes were recorded at sites 6, 7, and 8, especially sites 6 and B. Similarity, coefficients (Table 3) indicated significant changes (similarity (60%) at Stations 2, 5, and 8. More detailed analysis of the organisms responsible for these changes (see below) indicate the shifts observed at Station 5 do not show significant improvement in water quality. Table 4 examines the distribution of the dominant (most abundant) tax& in greater detail. Five tolerance groups have been established, using criteria established in prior report (DEM 1985). These groups were defined through the use of the 1983 distribution data, combined with the known pollution tolerance of these species: Group I - Septic zone fauna. Characteristic of prolonged anoxia. Group It - Primary recovery zone. Contains species very tolerant of low dissolved oxygen and/or toxic chemicals. Group III - Secondary recovery zone. Group IV - Tertiary recovery zone. Group V - Clean water species. Within each group, a "score" has been computed for each Deep River site. One point is assigned for a common )axon and two points for an abundant species. The score for each site is computed by adding up these "points". If between year changes in the scores are small (usually (5), it is assumed there has been no change in water quality_ Septic zone species (Table 3A), dominant at Station 2 in 1983, have been eliminated at all Deep River sites. This change reflects the removal of the Jamestown effluent from the upper Deep River. Distribution of recover zone groups (Table 38-3D) is largely unchanged at sites 3-6. There was a tendency for some Group II species to be replaced by more intolerant Group III species at Stations 4 and 5. However, this change does not indicate a significant improvement in water quality. All three recovery zone groups increased at Station 2. These increases reflect a significant improvement in water quality at this site. Large changes were also seen at sites 7 and 8, where Group I (primary recovery species declined). At Station 8, this decline was matched by an increase in tertiary recovery zone and clean water species. This change suggests some improvement in the river below the Randleman effluent. However, part of the change at Station 8 may be due to a change in the collection site or due to changes in Asheboro dischargers. Overall, changes were slight or insignificant, except at Station 2 and 8. A large increase in taxe richness was observed at Station 2, although fairly tolerant species were dominant at this site. The appearance of a few very intolerant species (Petroohile, Acroneuris, Pseohenus) indicates that further recofery is expected at this site. Table 1.
