Summary of Existing Stream Sediment Chemistry Data in Durham County, NC
and Surrounding Counties
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Durham's Public Works Department prepared this report to summarize available stream sediment
chemistry data from monitoring locations within Durham County and four surrounding counties (Chatham,
Granville, Orange, and Wake). Stream sediment characteristics can influence the health and water quality of
stream systems. Chemical contaminants and physical characteristics can cause water quality impairments or be
toxic to aquatic life. Evaluating stream sediment quality is therefore important to assessing the potential for
toxicity. Streambed sediment samples were collected from 123 monitoring locations by the City of Durham, the
United States Geological Survey (USGS), and the Duke University Bernhardt Lab. Summary statistics for different
biological, chemical, and physical properties of stream sediment are provided in this report. General categories
of sediment properties included bacteria, nutrients, metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs),
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), pesticides, other organic compounds, and physical sediment characteristics.
The geometric mean concentrations for E. coli bacteria and fecal coliform bacteria were 269 MPN/g and 2,027
cfu/g, respectively. The mean concentrations for total nitrogen and total phosphorus were 286.5 mg/kg and 462
mg/kg, respectively. The common metals of concern with the three highest mean concentrations were zinc (43.6
mg/kg), followed by chromium (25.2 mg/kg), and copper (21.0 mg/kg). The PAHs with the three highest
concentrations were fluoranthene (1,700 µg/kg), pyrene (1,300 µg/kg), and phenanthrene (1,200 µg/kg), which
are compounds found in combustion byproducts. Pesticides comprised the largest group of organic compounds;
however, 92% of the pesticides were not detected in stream sediment samples. Carbazole (insecticide),
metalaxyl (fungicide), and oxadiazon (herbicide) had the highest detected concentrations at 160 µg/kg, 34.2
µg/kg, and 3.6 µg/kg, respectively. Sand and silt were found to be the dominant sediment particles in 34
samples collected by the City of Durham.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Stream sediment provides essential habitat for plants and animals in aquatic systems. Stream sediment contains
the minerals that make up sediment particles, natural materials from the surrounding environment, and
materials associated with human activity, some of which are toxic. Stream sediment can be characterized by
biological, chemical, and physical properties. These properties can impact the ability of sediment to support
plants and animals. For example, high levels of toxic chemicals adsorbed to sediment particles can result in
unsuitable habitat for benthic macro invertebrates.
This report summarizes stream sediment chemistry data collected over a five -county area around the City of
Durham. Samples were collected by three different organizations: the City of Durham, the United States
Geological Survey (USGS), and Duke University. Summary statistics for different biological, chemical, and
physical properties of stream sediment are provided in this report and include the general categories of
bacteria, metals, nutrients, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs),
pesticides, other organic compounds, and sediment characteristics, such as density and grain size. Details on
sampling locations and sampling methodology are also included in this report.
2.0 SEDIMENT DATA SOURCES AND MONITORING SITES
This report summarizes data from 123 stream sediment monitoring sites located in five counties, 26 watersheds,
two major river basins, and four ecoregions. All parameters presented in this report are associated with
streambed sediment samples collected in Chatham County, Durham County, Granville County, Orange County,
and Wake County. The stream sediment data in this report were collected by the City of Durham's Public Works
Department, the U.S. Geological Survey's North Carolina Water Science Center, and the Duke University
Bernhardt Lab.
2.1 City of Durham
The City of Durham conducted sediment monitoring at 25 sites, with 24 in Durham County and one in Orange
County. City of Durham sediment data were collected during the Ambient Sediment Bacteria Study in July and
October of 2009, and January and April of 2010; the Bacteria Attenuation Study from February through May of
2010; the Northeast Creek Watershed Metals Study in June, September, and December of 2010 and March of
2011; and the Eno River Watershed Study in August and September of 2013 and February of 2014. The City of
Durham's sediment data were downloaded from the City of Durham's Water Quality Data Web Portal
(http://www.durhamwaterguality.org ) on November 29, 2017, and includes data collected from 2009 through
2014. The City of Durham stream sediment monitoring locations are shown below in Figure 1.

2.2 US Geological Survey
The USGS sediment monitoring data included in this report were from sampling conducted at 48 sites, with 25 of
the sites located in Durham County. The USGS sediment samples were collected as part of the National Water
Quality Assessment (NAWQA) Program in July of 2002, August of 2009, and June of 2014; and other data were
available from the National Water Information System (NWIS) for June of 2005, April through July of 2009, and
October of 2010. The USGS sediment data were downloaded from the Water Quality Portal
E
(https://www.watergualitvdata.us/) on December 1, 2017, and includes data collected from 2002 through 2014.
The Water Quality Portal is a cooperative service provided by the USGS, the Environmental Protection Agency,
and the National Water Quality Monitoring Council. The USGS stream sediment monitoring locations are shown

3.0 SEDIMENT SAMPLING AND DATA ANALYSIS METHODS
Stream sediment data generated by three different organizations are included in this report. These
organizations, the City of Durham, USGS, and Duke University, each used distinct methods to collect sediment
0
samples. Data from the three organizations were imported into a common database and analyzed for basic
summary statistics. Sediment sampling and data analysis techniques are described below in greater detail.
3.1 Streambed Sediment Sampling
The streambed sediment sampling methods for each study are summarized by organization. Sampling methods
are summarized using information from study Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPPs), study final reports,
sampling guideline documents, and personal communication with staff.
3.1.1 City of Durham Sediment Sampling
The City of Durham conducted streambed sediment sampling as part of four separate studies from 2009 to
2014. The Ambient Sediment Bacteria Study was conducted to determine concentrations and distribution of
fecal indicator bacteria in Streambed sediment at 13 of the City's ambient stream monitoring sites (City of
Durham, 2009a). The Bacteria Attenuation Study assessed the concentrations of E. coli and fecal coliform
bacteria in Streambed sediment and overlying surface water after the remediation of sanitary sewer discharges
at two locations in Durham (City of Durham, 2009b). The Northeast Creek Watershed Metals Study was
conducted in preparation for the Northeast Creek Watershed Implementation Plan to address data gaps related
to metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in streambed sediment (City of Durham, 2010). The Eno River
Watershed Implementation Plan Data Collection Study was conducted to characterize streambed sediment in
support of the Eno River Watershed Improvement Plan development (City of Durham, 2013).
For the Ambient Sediment Bacteria Study (City of Durham, 2009a), bed sediment samples were collected after
surface water samples were taken. Streams with water depths less than 0.5 meters were sampled with a
bottomless 5-gallon bucket and clean, polyethylene scoops. The bucket was placed in the streambed and surface
water was removed from the bucket before collecting sediment samples. Clean metal augers were used to
collect sediment samples in streams that were too deep to use the 5-gallon bucket method. A Shelby tube
sampler (metal coring device) was used to collect sediment particle size distribution samples approximately 6
inches below the streambed.
The Bacteria Attenuation Study (City of Durham, 2009b) QAPP does not describe detailed bed sediment
sampling methods. Based on staff knowledge, study photos, and the study report, surficial sediment samples
and bed sediment core samples were collected for the Bacteria Attenuation Study. The sampling methods
(including sampling equipment) for the Bacteria Attenuation Study were consistent with the methods described
above for the Ambient Sediment Bacteria Study.
Streambed sediment samples for the Northeast Creek Watershed Metals Study (City of Durham, 2010) were
collected using the same methods described for the Ambient Sediment Bacteria Study. Sediment samples were
collected from the first 3 inches of the streambed. Streambed sediment core samples were not collected for the
analysis of particle size distribution for the Northeast Creek Watershed Metals Study.
The sediment sampling methods for the Eno River Watershed Implementation Plan Data Collection Study (City
of Durham, 2014) were more consistent with methods outlined in the USGS "Guidelines for Collecting and
Processing Samples of Stream Bed Sediment for Analysis of Trace Elements and Organic Contaminants for the
National Water -Quality Assessment Program" (Shelton and Capel, 1994). The first 2-3 cm of fine-grained
sediments were collected from three depositional zones within a 100-meter stream reach (50 meters upstream
and downstream of surface water sampling locations) and combined into a composite sample. Three
subsamples were collected from each depositional zone for the composite sample. More detailed sampling
10
methods are described in the Eno River Watershed Implementation Plan Data Collection QAPP (City of Durham,
2013).
3.1.2 USGS Sediment Sampling
There are three different sample collection methods listed for the SS sediment sampling events conducted by
USGS staff included in this report. USGS sample collection method code #55 is associated with 16 sampling
events that are described as Composite — Multiple point samples. USGS sample collection method code #8010 is
associated with 5 sampling events and the sample collection method is defined as Other. The remaining 34
sampling events are defined as USGS with no description of the sample collection method. Further discussion
with USGS staff will be needed to determine the sediment sample collection methods for each project. Since 16
of the sampling events are associated with the NAWQA program, it is assumed that the samples were collected
using the USGS "Guidelines for Collecting and Processing Samples of Stream Bed Sediment for Analysis of Trace
Elements and Organic Contaminants for the National Water -Quality Assessment Program" (Shelton and Capel,
1994).
3.1.3 Duke University Sediment Sampling
The Duke University Bernhardt Lab collected streambed sediment samples from 5 transects at randomly
selected locations within a 100-meter reach. Sediment samples were collected with 15-cm x 5-cm coring tubes
at each transect until 50 cm of sediment depth was obtained. Sediment samples for a reach were mixed and
composited in the field by passing sediments through a 2-mm sieve (B. Hassett, personal communication,
December 14, 2017).
3.2 Data Quality Assessment
For this report, the sediment data from each data source (organization) were reviewed for duplicate samples,
quality assurance codes, laboratory codes, nondetects, method detection limits (MDLs), parameter names,
parameter units, and other important dataset schemas. Duplicate sample results were identified and averaged
for City of Durham data. In the raw data obtained for this report, some of the metals and organic compounds
(PAHs, PCBs, pesticides, etc.) concentration data were shown in different units. These differences in
concentration units were eliminated by converting all of the data to the same units.
Categories to classify the data in this study were based on data fields from the City of Durham Water Quality
Web Portal and the National Water Quality Portal databases. Full descriptions of these categories are included in
Appendix E.
The data sets presented in the tables in this report are separated into two groups: 1) parameters with 100% of
values reported below a laboratory method detection limit, and 2) parameters with values that are reported
above and below a laboratory method detection limit. Data that are reported as below or less than the method
detection limit (MDL) are referred to as nondetects (ND) or left -censored data. Censored data is a term that
refers to values that are less than a method detection limit. The term "nondetects" is used in this report to
describe values that are less than a method detection limit. Due to the number of values in this report below a
method detection limit, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's ProUCL software was used to calculate
general summary statistics. ProUCL uses the nonparametric Kaplan -Meier (KM) estimation method to estimate
the population mean, standard deviation, and population percentiles for left -censored data sets. Nonparametric
techniques or tests do not assume a normal population distribution and are often used to handle environmental
data. The KM estimation method can also handle nondetects with multiple detection limits.
11
Data analyzed in this report include biological, chemical, and physical characteristics of sediment samples
collected in and adjacent to Durham County. In the subsections 4.1 through 4.5 below, these data are presented
in the following parameter groups: bacteria, nutrients, inorganic compounds, organic compounds, and sediment
characteristics. The biological parameters analyzed in this study comprise of bacteria present in the sediment.
Chemical parameters included inorganic constituents like metals and nutrients. Organic constituents included
were categorized polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), pesticides, and
other organic compounds. The physical parameters of the sediment present here included density, moisture
content, and grain size analyses.
Overall, stream sediment samples were analyzed for 301 parameters which generated a data set of 5,714
values. There were 2,500 values reported below a laboratory method detection limit, which is 44% of the total
number of values in this report. General summary statistics for data sets with and without nondetects are
presented and discussed in the sections below. Parameters with 100% nondetects, i.e., all values are reported
below a method detection limit, are also presented in separate tables in the sections below. It is important to
note that for some parameters in the data tables below, the range of detected and nondetect concentration
values overlapped. For example, the range of nondetect values for nitrate+nitrite (2.7 — 3.3 mg/kg) overlapped
the range of detected values for nitrate+nitrite (2.3 — 3.2 mg/kg).
4.1 Bacteria
In 2009 and 2010, the City of Durham conducted two studies that collected streambed sediment samples that
were analyzed for two types of fecal indicator bacteria — E. coli and fecal coliform. The Ambient Sediment
Bacteria Study was conducted in 2009 and 2010, and the Bacteria Attenuation Study was conducted in 2010. The
analytical methods used to quantify E. coli and fecal coliform concentrations are listed below in Table 1.
Table 3. Analytical methods used to quantify E. coli and fecal coliform bacteria in stream sediment samples.
City of Durham I Fecal coliform cfu/g dry weight SM 92210E
E. coli MPN/g dry weight IDEXX Colilert
In both studies, E. coli and fecal coliform concentrations were detected in all streambed sediment samples.
Summary statistics for fecal indicator bacteria are shown below in Table 4. E. coli sample results ranged from 1
MPN/g to 27,600 MPN/g and fecal coliform sample results ranged from 62 cfu/g to 366,000 cfu/g. Both fecal
indicator bacteria data sets are positively skewed by high values, i.e., outliers. In other words, the outlier values
extend the right tail of the distribution and pull the mean value toward the tail of the distribution. The mean
values for both parameters are higher than their respective median values, which also indicate positively skewed
or right -skewed data. Therefore, the median and geometric mean values for E. coli and fecal coliform are more
resistant measures that summarize the central location of the data. The geometric mean and median values for
fecal coliform were an order of magnitude higher than the geometric mean and median values for E. coli. The
range and variability of fecal indicator bacteria concentrations found in Durham's stream sediments are similar
to the variability of results for multiple studies summarized in an extensive literature review by Pachepsky and
Shelton (2011).

The interquartile range (IQR) is another measure of the variability or spread of the data. The IQR measures the
range of the central 50 percent of the data. The IQR for the E. coli data is 1,500 MPN/g with a 25th percentile of
100 MPN/g and a 75th percentile of 1,600 MPN/g. The IQR for the fecal coliform data is 5,323 cfu/g with a 25th
percentile of 677 cfu/g and a 75th percentile of 6,000 cfu/g. The data spread for both parameters are shown as
box plots in Figure 5.

13
There are no sediment quality guidelines for E. coli or fecal coliform in North Carolina that can be compared to
the data set in this report. For overlying surface waters, there are federal water quality guidelines for E. coli and
state water quality standards for fecal coliform. The US Environmental Protection Agency's recommended
recreational water quality criteria for E. coli is a geometric mean of 126 cfu/100mL in any selected 30-day
interval (USEPA 2012). The USEPA's recreational water quality criteria also recommends that no more than 10%
of E. coli samples exceed a statistical threshold value of 410 cfu/100mL in any selected 30-day interval (USEPA
2012). The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality's surface water quality standard for fecal
coliform states that five consecutive samples during a 30-day period shall not exceed a geometric mean of 200
cfu/100mL, nor exceed 400 cfu/100mL in more than 20 percent of the samples examined during such period
(15A NCAC 02B.0211(7)).
4.2 Nutrients
Streambed sediments collected by the City of Durham and the USGS were analyzed for nutrients. The City of
Durham data were collected in 2013 and 2014 as part of the Eno River Watershed Study. The USGS data were
collected in 2005, 2009, and 2014. The City of Durham analyzed sediment samples for nitrate+nitrite (NO3+NO2),
nitrate (NO3), nitrite (NO2), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), and total phosphorus (TP). The USGS analyzed

phosphorus was the only parameter analyzed by both organizations. The analytical methods used to quantify
nutrient concentrations are listed by organization name in Table 5.

The sediment samples analyzed for % N, TKN, and TP were detected 100% of the time, i.e., there were 0%
nondetects. The nondetects accounted for 50% of the samples analyzed for NO3+NO2, 33% of the samples
analyzed for NO3, 100% of the samples analyzed for NO2, and 12.5% of the samples analyzed for % P.
Summary statistics for all values (detects and nondetects) are shown in Table 6. For nutrient concentrations,
TKN and TP had the highest mean values of 284 mg/kg and 462 mg/kg, respectively, and NO3+NO2 had the
lowest mean value of 2.5 mg/kg. By adding the mean values of TKN and NO3+NO2 together, the result is an
average calculated total nitrogen (TN) value of 286.5 mg/kg. TP had the largest spread of data with a range of
1,630 mg/kg (70 mg/kg to 1700 mg/kg) and an IQR of 410 mg/kg (180 mg/kg to 590 mg/kg). The calculated TN
range was 73.3 mg/kg to 903.2 mg/kg based on data from samples that were measurable for both TKN and
NO3+NO2.

4.3 Inorganic Compounds - Metals
This section summarizes results for chemical elements classified as metals, although some are classified as
metalloids, e.g., antimony and arsenic, and reactive nonmetals (e.g., selenium). Streambed sediments collected
by the City of Durham, USGS, and Duke University were analyzed for a suite of metals. The City of Durham data
were collected in 2010 and 2011 for the Northeast Creek Assessment Study, and in 2013 and 2014 as part of the
Eno River Watershed Study. The USGS data were collected in 2002, 2005, 2009, and 2014. The Duke University
data were collected in 2004 and 2009. The various metals analyzed by each organization are listed in Table 7.

The analytical methods used to quantify metal concentrations are listed by the organization name in Table 8.
Analytical methods are shown for metal constituents that were analyzed by all three organizations. The Duke
University -Bernhardt Lab digested three replicate samples (from the composite sample) for each of their stream
sediment monitoring locations which were then analyzed using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry
(ICP-MS) (B. Hassett, personal communication, December 21, 2017). The replicate samples were averaged per
monitoring location before summarizing the data with the metals data sets from the City of Durham and the
USGS.

4.4 Organic Compounds
This section summarizes several types of organic contaminants that were analyzed by the City of Durham and
the USGS. The organic contaminants in this report are divided into the following groups: polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), pesticides, and other organic compounds used in a
variety of consumer products such as perfumes and personal care products.
4.4.1 Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs)
Streambed sediments collected by the City of Durham and USGS were analyzed for 36 different PAHs. The City of
Durham data were generated in 2010 and 2011 for the Northeast Creek Assessment Study, and in 2013 and
2014 as part of the Eno River Watershed Study. The USGS data were generated in 2009, 2010, and 2014. Four of
the 36 PAHs were not detected in any stream sediment samples and are shown below in Table 11.
Table 11. List of PAHs with no detected concentrations in sediment samples
collected by the City of Durham and the USGS.
The PAHs that were detected in stream sediment samples are summarized in Table 12. Fluoranthene had the
highest maximum concentration of 1,700 µg/kg, the highest mean concentration of 114 µg/kg, and the highest
IQR of 90 jig/kg. Pyrene and phenanthrene had the second and third highest maximum concentrations in all
samples at 1,300 µg/kg and 1,200 µg/kg, respectively. Fluoranthene, pyrene, and phenanthrene are substances
found in combustion byproducts from coal, oil, automobile exhaust, cigarette smoke, and cooking smoke
(PubChem Database 2020). Fluoranthene, pyrene, and phenanthrene are also on the EPA's priority pollutant list
(40 CFR Part 423, Appendix A). The PAHs with the three lowest ranges of detected concentrations were 1,2-
dimethylnaphthalene (2.0-3.2 µg/kg), 2-ethylnaphthalene (2.6-3.6 µg/kg), and 2,3,6-trimethylnaphthalene (3.0-
5.9 µg/kg). Naphthalene compounds come from coal tar or petroleum distillation and are used in the
manufacture of artificial resins (PubChem Database 2020).

4.4.3 Pesticides
There were 141 pesticide compounds identified for this report. The City of Durham analyzed for two pesticide
compounds (1,4-dichlorobenzene and methyl parathion), and the USGS analyzed for 141 different pesticides
presented in this report. Ninety-two percent of the pesticides (130 compounds) were not detected in the
streambed sediment samples collected by the USGS, which are shown below in Table 14. Neither compound
sampled by the City of Durham was detected. Methyl parathion is an insecticide and 1,4-dichlorobenzene is used
to make mothballs, resins, and odor -controlling products for trash cans, restrooms, and animal facilities
(PubChem Database 2020).

The pesticides listed in Table 15 were detected in one or more sediment samples collected by the USGS, which
represent eight percent of the pesticides analyzed (i.e., 11 out of 141 compounds). Carbazole, metalaxyl, and
oxadiazon had the highest detected maximum concentrations at 160 µg/kg, 34.2 µg/kg, and 3.6 µg/kg,
respectively. Carbazole is used to make dyes and insecticides, metalaxyl is a fungicide used to control plant
diseases, and oxadiazon is used as an herbicide (PubChem Database 2020). Dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane
(DDD) dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE) were each detected once at 2.0 µg/kg and 2.3 µg/kg,
respectively. DDD is an insecticide (similar to DDT) and DDE is a chemical breakdown product of DDT (PubChem
Database 2020).

4.4.4 Other Organic Compounds
This section summarizes 43 organic compounds that were not grouped with the previous parameter categories
listed in this report. Eighty-one percent (35 compounds) of the compounds were not detected in any of the
streambed sediment samples. The City of Durham analyzed for two of these compounds, bis(2-
24
ethyl hexyl)phthalate and diethyl phthalate, neither of which were detected in any of the stream sediment
samples collected by the City of Durham. Bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate and diethyl phthalate are synthetic chemical
compounds that are added to many types of plastic products to make them more flexible (PubChem 2020). The
USGS analyzed for 43 other organic compounds presented in this report. The organic compounds with no
detected values are listed below in Table 16. Eight organic compounds were detected and are listed in Table 17.

4.5 Sediment Characteristics
The stream sediment characteristics summarized in this section were analyzed by the City of Durham and the
USGS. The City of Durham analyzed sediment samples for particle size distribution, bulk density, percent dry
weight, moisture percent of the sample, wet weight, and total organic carbon. The USGS analyzed sediment
samples for percent of inorganic carbon, percent of organic carbon, and percent of sulfur. The USGS sediment
samples were also analyzed for particle size distribution; however, there was not sufficient sample method
documentation to determine the percent of silt and the percent of clay in each sample. Therefore, the USGS
particle size percentage data were omitted from this summary report.
On average, 34 of the City of Durham's sediment samples consisted of 5.0% clay, 12.9% gravel, 24% silt, and
57.8% sand. Although sand and silt were the dominant particle sizes, the percent of sand ranged from 7% to
97.9% and the percent of silt ranged from 1.6% to 75%. Total organic carbon was analyzed in 114 sediment
samples and concentrations ranged from 412 mg/kg to 1,630,000 mg/kg, with a median concentration of 2,030
mg/kg. A City of Durham monitoring location at New Hope Creek (NH3.ONHC) had the lowest detected
concentration for total organic carbon, while the highest detected concentration for total organic carbon was
reported for a City of Durham monitoring location at Ellerbe Creek (EL7.9EC). The sediment characteristics
analyzed by the City of Durham and the USGS are shown below in Table 18.
