WATER AND STREAMBED-MATERIAL DATA, EAGLE CREEK WATERSHED, INDIANA, AUGUST 1980 AND OCTOBER AND DECEMBER 1982

By David J. Wangsness

ABSTRACT

Water-quality studies within the Eagle Creek watershed, Indiana, were done by the U.S. Geological Survey in August 1980, October 1982, and December 1982 in cooperation with the city of Indianapolis, Department of Public Works. A fourth study will be done in spring 1983. Streambed-material and water samples were collected from Finley and Eagle Creeks at various flow rates and were ana­ lyzed for selected metals, nonmetals, insecticides, and acid-extractable and base-neutral-extractable compounds. Water samples also were analyzed for vola­ tile organics.

This report lists all the data collected and analyzed by the U.S. Geological Survey during the 1980 and 1982 surveys but does not interpret the data.

INTRODUCTION

In late August 1980, the city of Indianapolis, Department of Public Works, participated in a cooperative water-quality study in which the U.S. Geological Survey collected samples of streambed materials to define the general water quality of the upper Eagle Creek watershed. The samples were analyzed for a wide variety of organic and inorganic constituents (appendix 1) at 11 sampling sites (fig. 1). The purpose of the study was to collect water-quality informa­ tion that could be used by the city of Indianapolis to determine if any toxic substances were entering Eagle Creek Reservoir (where they may pollute the drinking-water supply and ultimately endanger the public safety) and to aid the city in identifying areas that may be contributing these substances to the surface-water supply.

In October 1982, a second survey was made for the city of Indianapolis. The purpose of the survey was to collect water-quality information that could be used by the city to determine if the types and concentration of substances in Eagle Creek in August 1980 had changed. Because toxic substances detected in the 1980 survey entered Finley Creek from a source between sites 3 and *J

(fig. 1), the 1982 survey was done at the same sites and at two sites on Eagle Creek downstream from Finley Creek. Four sites were sampled in October 1982, three sites in December 1982, and three sites will be sampled in spring 1983.

APPROACH

Chemical constituents and properties of surface water at four sites were measured and sampled on October 26-27, 1982. Site 1, on Finley Creek at 1100 East North Road, represents background water quality upstream from the identi­ fied change in water-quality (fig. 2). Site 2, on Finley Creek at Highway 421, represents a location where water quality is believed likely to be affected. Site 3, on Eagle Creek at West 146th Street, is downstream from the mouth of Finley Creek. Site 4, on Eagle Creek at Highway 100 (86th Street), represents the quality of water before it enters Eagle Creek Reservoir.

Dissolved-oxygen concentration, specific conductance, water temperature, pH, and discharge were measured in the field at four sampling sites, and sam­ ples of suspended sediments and streambed materials were collected and returned to the laboratory for size analysis. Water and streambed-material samples were collected and analyzed for selected metals, insecticides, and acid-extractable and base-neutral-extractable compounds. Water samples also were analyzed for volatile organics.

The October 1982 survey was done during an extremely low-flow period; therefore, the samples probably represented the ground-water contribution to the streams (base flow). The samples at site 4 included treated wastewater from Zionsville as another source of water. A third survey done December 14,1982. after a rainy period, represented high flow. Site 1, the upper site in Finley Creek, was not sampled in December, and only water samples were collect­ ed at sites 2, 3> and 4 at that time. A fourth survey is planned for spring1983. during high flow. Water samples from sites 2, 3, and 4 will be collect­ ed, and the water will be analyzed for selected metals and nonmetals, insecti­ cides, volatile organics, and acid-extractable and base-neutral extractable compounds.

METHODS

Dissolved-oxygen concentration, specific conductance, water temperature, and pH were measured at each site. Discharge was measured by current meters or was estimated at low flows. All water samples were collected by dipping the sample bottle from surface to bottom at several points in the stream section to assure a well-mixed sample.

2 Sampling site and designation

Figure 2. Sampling sites in the Eagle Creek watershed, Indiana, 1982.-4-

Streambed-material samples for determining size distribution were collected from several points in the stream section at each sampling site. These samples were slowly dried at about 60°C and were then composited and sieved through a nest of six sieves. The sieved material was weighed, and the percent of the total sample for each size fraction was calculated. Streambed-material samples for chemical analysis were collected from pooled areas where greatest amounts of fines were likely to be deposited. The fine sediments were wet sieved through a number 230 stainless-steel sieve. The smaller than 63-micron frac­ tion that passed through the sieve was composited in glass jars, refrigerated, and allowed to settle for 24 to 48 hours. Most of the water was decanted, and the fine sediments were shipped to the Geological Survey Central Laboratory in Doraville, Ga., for analysis.

DATA

The water and streambed-material data from the 1982 studies are listed in tables 1-19. The tables also include detection limits and units of measurement. Streambed-material data from the 1980 survey are listed in ap­ pendix 1. EPA water-quality standards are listed in appendix 2, and select organic compounds whose concentrations exceeded background concentrations in Finley and Eagle Creeks in October and December 1982 are listed in appendix 3.

Appendix 1. Water-quality survey of Eagle Creek and tributaries upstream fromEagle Creek Reservoir, August 25-26, 1980 (continued)

G. GC/MS base-neutral scan of streambed material(<63-micron fraction)

The following are results of a GC/MS base neutral scan of priority pollu­ tants on streambed materials (<63 micron) collected from Eagle Creek watershed August 25-26, 1980. Methylene chloride was used as the extraction solvent. The extract was concentrated to 1.0 ml, and approximately 4 microliters of the concentrate was analyzed. No priority pollutants were identified; however, several closely related compounds were identified and some were quantified. Minimum detection limits are approximately 2.0 ug/kg.

Site 1 One peak was identified as a phthalate; seven peaks were identified as alcohols; and thirteen peaks were identified as straight-chain, branched, and cyclic hydrocarbons.

Site 2 Concentration of strobane (related to Toxaphene) was 98.1 Ug/kg. Five peaks were identified as hydrocarbons or complex alcohols.

Site 3 One peak was identified as 1,4-dimethoxybenzene, and nine other peaks were identified as acetaldehyde derivatives or complex alcohols.

Site 4 Traces of dimethyl and trimethyl phenanthrene were identified. Concentration of strobane was 97.1 ug/kg.

Site 5 Traces of nitrobenzene, 1,4-dimethoxybenzene, and acetaldehyde derivatives were identified.

Site 6 One peak was identified as an acetaldehyde derivative, one as a fluorophenyl compound, and one as a benzenediol.

Site 7 -- Nothing was detected.

Site 8 Four peaks were identified as alcohols, and six were identified as branched or straight-chain hydrocarbons.

Site 9 Phenol was identified in trace concentrations. Seven other peaks were identified as alcohols and ketones.

Site 10 Three peaks were identified as alcohols, seven as straight-chain, branched, and cyclic hydrocarbons, and one as a complex ester.

Site 11 Trimethyloenzenes were identified in trace concentrations. Four peaks were identified as hydrocarbons or complex organic acids.
