1.0 INTRODUCTION

I The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the I impact of the existing intake structures for Units l and 2 of the Waterford Power Station on the biota of the Mississippi River.

Waterford Power Station is located on the west bank of the I Mississippi River in Killona, Louisiana (approximately River Mile I 130 ARP).

The investigation consisted of one year of semimonthly monitoring at the plant's intake structure after Units 1 and 2 I began commercial operation. This report presents the results of the 24 semimonthly diurnal screen impingement surveys beginning

-I in February 1976 and ending in January 1977. Table 1-1 provides the date of each sampling run, the number of circulators opera-tional, the volume of cooling water pumped through the plant from the river during the 24-hour period, and the river stage. River stage is also graphically displayed in Fig. 1-1 for February 1976 I to January 1977.

Document No. 7731 I Z.O METHODS AND MATERIALS I Z.l Equipment I Dissolved oxygen and water temperature were measured with a YSI Model 51A dissolved oxygen, temperature meter. The I range of the meter is -5 to +45 C and 0-15 mg/l oxygen (Oz).

i These temperature measurements are accurate to better than +0.7 C with the dissolved oxygen measurements being accurate to +/-0.Z mg/l Oz when calibrated to +/-5 C of actual sample temperature.

i Conductivity was measured with a YSI Model 33 S-C-T (Salinity-Conductivity-Temperature) meter. The meter range is I 0-50,000 µmhos/cm for conductivity. The maximum error is +/-Z.5%

at 500, 5,000, and 50,000 µmhos/cm plus probe and +/-3.0% at Z50, I Z,500, and Z5,000 µmhos/cm plus probe. The maximum error intro-duced by the probe is +/-Z.0% of the reading for conductivity.

I Measurements of pH were made with a Fischer Accumet lZO pH meter. The relative accuracy of the meter is +0.1 with repeatability of +/-0.05.

I Biological samples were collected in the sluiceway with three baskets; two constructed of 1/4" expanded metal, framed with I angle iron and the third basket of l/Z" hardware cloth framed with angle iron. Weights were measured on an 0 Haus Dial-0-Gram bal-ance, which is sensitive to +/-0.1 gram. Lengths for all organisms I

were measured to the nearest millimeter. The standard length was measured on all fish, the shrimp were measured from the tip of the, rostrum to the tip of the telson, while the carapace width I of the blue crab is reported.

Document No. 7731 I 2.2 Data Collection I Data collection was designed so as not to interrupt the normal plant operations. A 24-hour time unit was designated with I the screens being run, washed, and cleared at the outset of the period. Baskets were then set in a series in the sluiceway (see I Fig. 2-1). The two 1/4" expanded metal baskets were placed closest to the screens with the 1/2" hardware cloth basket last I as a backup. Collections were made when one or more of the screens operated during the 24-hour sampling period. For the I final 30 minutes all screens were run and washed, and simultane-ously stopped at the end of the twenty-fourth hour.

i Physical and chemical data were collected from the Unit 1 West and the Unit 2 East intake pump screen wells at approxi-I mately six-hour intervals. Dissolved oxygen, water temperature and conductivity were measured in situ. Water samples were pulled from the appropriate wells, and pH was measured within I 30 minutes of sample collection.

All organisms collected during each diurnal were iden-I tified to species, except when precluded by physical condition.

Physical injuries were noted (Section 3.2.2).

I' All fish and crustaceans were individually weighed and measured, with the exception of three samples of the bay anchovy (Anchoa mitchilli) and numerous samples of the river shrimp I (Macrobrachium ohione). These samples were sub-sampled such that all measurements were taken on 25 randomly selected indi-I viduals. Total weight is provided for all species.

Document No. 7731 I 3.0 RESULTS I 3.1 Physical Data I The water chemistry data, including water temperature, I!

dissolved oxygen, conductivity and pH, are presented by date and time in Table 3-1 along with the number of circulating water pumps operating for each unit.

I Local climatological data from the New Orleans Inter-national Airport are given in Table 3-2. These data are com-I prised of maximum and minimum temperatures, average dew point, average wind speed and resultant wind direction.

I 3.2 Biological Analysis I 3.2.1 Biomass and Species Composition - Listed in Table 3-3 I are the data collected for each species of fish and crustacean from February 1976 through January 1977. In instances where taxonomic identification to the species level was not possible, I generic names are reported. Table 3-4 presents a summary of total biomass impinged during each 24-hour sampling period, fur-I ther divided by fish and crustaceans. Species lists of all fish and crustaceans collected during the survey year are presented in I Tables 3-5 and 3-6, respectively.

I 3.2.2 Observations on the Extent of Physical Injury - Physical injuries were qualitatively noted in situ as well as during labo-ratory measurements. The catfish (Ictaluridae) displayed hematomas I around the mouth and appendages. This damage appeared to be most common in the body areas adjacent caudal and anal fins. Spines I and soft rays were also impacted. Shredding and abrading of the I

Document No. 7731 I soft rays was common. Spines were sometimes broken. Infrequently I there was loss of appendages and severe abrasions. The scaled fish also exhibited hematomas around the head and appendages.

I Scale loss was common. Loss and shredding of soft rays occurred frequently. The crustaceans and eels were essentially uninjured.

The crabs and shrimp sometimes had lost an appendage; however, I their exoskeleton appeared undamaged with the exception of oc-i cational rostral loss in shrimp. Eels were very active and agressive with no external damage apparent.
