ABSTRACT The growth, distribution, and species composition of marine borers (primarily shipworms) and fouling organisms are being studied in the vicinity of the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station, Barnegat Bay, New Jersey. Untreated wood test panels arc used to collect organisms at 18 localities. Our most recent findings covering September-Novem-ber,1978, are that at least one subtropical species of the borer family Teredinidae continues to live in Oyster Creek; + new breeds at the mouth of Forked River. The subtropical Teredo bartschi 'iving in Oyster Creek retained well-developed larvae in the gills thr:) ugh November, while the native species B. gouldi spawned out. The gonads of B_. gouldi were vanishingly small in November. Larvae of T.bartschi settled in Oyster Creek and larvae of the native T. navalis set". led on Long Beach Island in September, but no later. The last B. gouldi of the season settled in August. The greatest wood damage occurred et station 12 in Oyster Creek. Increased siltation on rocks in Oyster Creek decreasei both the abundance and the diversity of fouling organisms. The introduced polychaete Mercierella enigmatica has been found in Oyster Creek as well as stations to the north, iii

SttMARY JF FINDINGS The purpose of this investigation is to monitor the levels of shipworm infestation in areas adjacent to the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station, particularly its water intake and discharge systems. Further-more, we are following species composition and breeding and settlement of all boring and fouling invertebrates that associate themselves with our wooden test panels at 18 stations. We record tenperature and salinity, and remove and add panels on a monthly basis, except at 4 stations where temperature and salinity are recorded constantly. Our major findings are:
- 1. The power plant was not operating during the period September 4-5 dnd September 16-November 30.
- 2. The water temperature in Oyster Creek ran about 5.5 C lower this year than during the same period last year. Despite the plant shut-down, the temperature in September was slightly higher at Oyster Creek than at other stations.
- 3. Recirculation of heated effluent water did not occur during this period of time, because the plant was not operating.
- 4. Shipwonn larvae settled on monthly panels in August and September.
- 5. Teredo bartschi was found in Oyster Creek and the mouth of Forked Ri ve r. In November, straight-hinge larvae were observed in the gills of specimens in Forked River for the first time.
- 6. No T. furcifera specimens were found.
- ~
- 7. The shipworms in Oyster Creek were reproducing at a size as small as 4 mm long, due to extreme crowding.
- 8. The heaviest attack is now in Oyster Creek and the mouth of Forked River. One station on Lor Beaco Island is also heavily infested.
- 9. Unusually high mortality t + orms occurred in very crowded panels.
- 10. Fouling declined in Oyster Cree aecause of heavy silt. Algae were particularly affected. Barnacles were not affected.
ll.The m-endemic polychaete wc.m Mercierella enigmatica was found for tne first time in Oyster Creek. It appears to be spreading from north to south in Barnegat Bay. 12.The ratio of gonad weight to total body weight tends to be higher for B_. gouldi in Oyster Creek than B_. gouldi at other localities. This implies greatt - reproductive potential. However, numbers of specimens from Oyster Creek were low, and the results were not
- atistically significant.

ANALYSIS OF POPULATIONS OF BORING AND FOULING ORGANISFG IN THE VICINITY OF THE OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION with Discussion of Relevant Fnysical Parameters Over ine Period September 1,1978 - November 30, 1978 INTRODUCTION This progress report covers data collected over the period Sept.1, 1978 - Nov. 30,1978. The methods are identical to those given in earlier reports. The period was marked by a prolonged shutdown of the generating station for refueling. A loss of data was caused by malfunction of salinometers, but all other operations were normal. A lost rack at station 2 was recovered intact. The locations of our stations are given in the Appendix.
.n n I .
FMJOR PHYSICAL EVENTS Temperature Table 1 and Figure 1 show the temperatures recorded at the time of sampling each month. On September 9, the Generating Station had been operating for 3 days following a 2-day shutdown. Oyster Cree!< temperatures were only 1-40 above control stations; there was great variance in the temperatures at the control stations. Durina October and November when the Station was down for refueling, Oyster Creek stations were among the coolest. As has occurred in previous months, the warmest station outside of Oyster Creek '.;as in Stout's Creek (#3). The constant temperature recorders (Table 2) provide more comprehensive data, but at only 4 stations. It can be seen that the mean daily AT was higher in Dyster Creek than at the other stations, although the largest s;ngle daily AT occurred in Forked River, in all three months. Tne temperature in Oyster Creek was about 5.40C lower in fall,1978, than in fall,1977, due to the Station shutdown. Salinity Tables 3 and 4 present salinity data for Oyster Creek (Stations 10-13), Forked River (Stations 4-9) and control stations. As we noted in previous reports, Oyster Creek and Forked River are similar in salin-ity, and fall between the tidal creeks and Barnegat Bay stations. Usually, the salinity is slightly lower at Oyster Creek relative to Forked River. The highest values are usually at Long Beach Island. The greatest month-to-month change in salinity comes at stations 1,2, 3, and 14, that are influenced by variation in outflow of fresh water from tidal creeks. At station 1, some data taken early in the month were excluded. This is because the probe was checked and found to be clogged with silt. After it was cleaneds the salinity rose by 8 0/gg. This problem has not been found at the other stations. 2 a -- 3

SHIPWORf15 Monthly Panels Table 5 presents data on numbers and species of shipworms settling during August and September. No shipwoms settled past October 8, at least, none that survived long enounb to make an inpression on the wood. In August, Bankia gouldi settled at control stations but only Teredo bartschi settled in Oyster Creek. Heavy settlement occurred at Holly Park (B. gouldi), Long Beach Island (T. navalis), and Oyster Creek (T. bartschi). In September, successful settlement was sparse, and restricted to T. navalis on Long Beach Island and T. bartschi at one station in Oyster Creek. Remarkable growth of young B_. gouldi occurred during the month of August (Table 6). Ten specimens exceeded 49 mm in length. Signi fi-cant growth occurred among all three species, at all stations where there was settlement. For example, 3 out of 59 specimens of T. bartschi retrieved in the September monthly station 11 panel had achieved a length of 10 mm; the others were fron 1-9 mm. Five specimens of T. navalis from station 18 had achieved a length of 20 mm or more, although 510 were less than 10 mm and 101 were between 10 and 20 nm. No significant growth occurred in juveniles that settled in September or the first week of October. Yearly Panels Panels submerged in the fall of 1977 and removed in the fall of 1978 are described in Tables 7-9. Shipwonc attack, in terms of numbers, was highest at stations #11 and 12 (Oyster Creek), with significant attack also occurring at stations #2 (mouth of Cedar Creek), 8 (between Oyster Creek and Forked River), and 18 (Long Beach Island). Each area is infested primarily by a one species, in each case a different one, except for station 8 where both B. gouldi and T. bartschi occur in high numbers. A few pairs of replicated panels, notably at station 1 and ll-November, differed by an order of magnitude. Mortality occurred most heavily in the crowded panels of stations 11 (October),12 (Sept. ), and 18. At station 18, m rtality was too high to estima te accurately. Size ranges of the specimens (Table 9, Fig. 2) showed that very small specimens of T. navalis existed only at station 18; small and presumably young specimens of T. bartschi 9 n ,
existed at all but station 4. There were a few small B.. gouldi at stations 1 and 2; all other panels contained only adults. The largest specimens occurred at stations 8, ll,12,14,15, and 17. Cumulative Panels Tables 10 and 11 present the numbers and species of shipworms taken from cumulative panels that had been submerged for 3, 4, and 5 months. The heaviest infestation was at stations 1, 2,10-12, and
- 18. Attack at station 10 near the mouth of Oyster Creek was strong-er than showed up in the yearly panels, but was still lower than at stations 17 and 12. Species deployment was as in yearly panels.
Station 13 near the thermal discharge point was not infested by T. bartschi, but a few T. navalis and B.. gouldi were present. At station 18, where the panels were falling apart by October, mortality was very high and could not be estimated accurately. It was at least 90", for the November panel. At Cyster Creek, significant mortality was r"t seen until October 8; the greatest mortality occurred at station 12. The largest specimens were found at stations 4,10,12, and 17. Live specimens of B. gouldi less than 5 mm long occurred only at station 1 in September. Small T. bartseni aro T. navalis were common in Sep-tember and October, but small T. nui:lis were absent in November (Table 12, Fig. 3). Wood Destruction A quantitative estimate of wood borer damage is prest nted in Tables 13 and 14. The highest damage in the summer of i978 was at station 11 in Oyster Creek, followed by 18 (Long Beach Isl5nd), 12 (0yster Creek), 1 (Holly Park),17 (Manahawkin), and 10 (lagoon off Oyster Creek). A similar pattern is seen for panels submerged 12 .rr.tns, except that damage was considerably less at station 10 and greater at station P (Bayside Beach Club) than would be predicted from the summer data. alone. Damage at station 17 includes boring by the isopod Lim;ioria. 10 q O i

Reproduction In Table 15 are ash-free dry weights of gonads and somatic tissues for some of the specimens of Bankia gouldi removed in September and October,1978. By November, many specimens had gonads so small that they could not be dissected. Although the sample size at Oyster Creek stations was necessarily small, a trend toward both larger gonaas on an absolute scale and proportionally larger gonads can be seen. The results are not si.ctistically significant, due to small sample size and high variance. However, the trend is the same for all experimental par.els except for the yearly panels removed in October, where the ganad/ body ratio was highest at control stations. In all cases, the gonad / body ratio dropped between September and October. Specimens of Teredo could be examined directly for larvae in the gills as an indicator of reproductive condition (Table 16). The percentage of Teredo carrying larvae did not change significantly over the months reported here. Over 1/3 of all T. bartschi carried larvae, while only about 1% of T. navalis did. All of the latter were at station 18. Larvae of T. bartschi did not appear outside of Oyster Creek (at stations 4 and 8) until November 4,1978. The smallest shipworm found to have larvae in the gills was a T. bartschi 4 mm long from Oyster Creek. 40

FOULIrlG ORGAf1 ISMS Tc es 17-23 give presence-absence data for some of the most com.non fouling organisms in Barnegat Bay. The format is the same as in our earlier reports. Electra crustulenta (Table 17) settled widely and heavily in Barnegat Bay, except for the lowest salinity st6 tion, #3. The same occurred during September-flovember of 1977. E. crustulenta is found on yearly panels at station 3, so it does settTe there but is seascnally restricted. E. crustulenta was most abundant in Forked River. kdroides dianthus (Table 18) settled oniy on Long Beach Island and at Waretown during fall,1978. It is most abundant in Forked River and from Waretown south. It tuds not to co-occur with Mercierella enigmatica, another calcareous u;be-building polychaete. Compared with 1977, H. d;anthus was not as abundant nor as frequent, especially on monthly panels. It is not abundant in Oyster Creek. Botryllus schlosseri (Table 19) also was less frequent and abundant in fall of 1978 than in 1977 at the same time of year. It is most common at Waretown, Long Beach Island, and the main channel of Forked River. The biggest change since 1977 was its disappearance from stations 1 and 2. Although it is entirely absent from Oyster Creek, the Generating Station is not implicated, because it is also absent from Stout's and Cedar Creek, and the middle branch of Forked River. Its patchy distribution is unexplained. B_._ schlosseri actively starts new colonies in fall months. Enteromorpha (Table 20) comprises two species, E_._ intestinalis at most inner bay stations and E. prolifera at Long Beach Island. The di.;tribution pattern of E. intestinalis is spotty, and differs from 1977. All plants, except those of E. prolifera, were small in 1978. Enteromorpha did not colonize during September and October. The barnacle Balanus eburneus (Table 21) stopped settling in October, as it did in 1977. During August and September, it settled most abundantly in Oyster Creek and the mouth of Forked River (station 4, 8, 10, and 11). Molgula manhattensis (Table 22) and campanulareid hydroids were both found on a few monthly panels; adults were more common at the southet n stations (14-19). The total number of fouling species (Tables 24-26) is greatest on Long Beach Island (stations 18-19), closely followed by Forked River (stations 4-6 and 8) and Waretown (station 14). The lowest number of species were at the northern and low-salinity stations (#1-3 and 7). Oyster Creek falls in between. 43 i

DISCUSSION Despite the shutdown for refueling, Teredo bartschi conti'iued to thrive in Oyster C reek. The most significant finding of the quarte was the discovery in Forked River of T. bartschi containing lervaes From the low numbers of T. bartschi in Forked River and the presence of larvae only in November, it appeared that T. bartschi was a summer invader and was not reoroductively active there until the end of the summer of 1978. It will be of great importance if T. bartschi undergo an outbreak in Forked River next spring. The larvae in the gills of T. bartschi appear to remain alive and healthy through November, at least. T. navalis, on the other hand, appears not to keep larvae in the giTls through the fall uonths. This is a major species difference. T. bartschi may require only a few warm days for release of larvae and settling, since its free-swimming period can be less than 72 hours (1). Monthly shipworm settlements were comparable to those in the fall of 1977, except that there were more T. bartschi, and T. bartschi replaced T. navalis and T. furcifera on the monthly panels in Oyster Creek. T. navalis continued to settle heavily at Long Beach Island. Each year, B;. gouldi stops settling before Teredo species in the fall. Species composition was mixed, but there was primarily one species at ea.ch locality where the attack was intense. The greatest damage occurred in Oyster Creek, both in terms of number of individuals and amount of wood destroyed. Compared with 1976 and 1977, attack of T. ncvalis at station 17 increased, while attack of B. gouldi at station 2 was lower. Surprisingly, there was no attack at station 20 in Cedar Creek, despite evidence of former attack. But the salinity was too low. In years prior to 1978, tne salinity must have been higher, allowing stipworms to int ie. The attack of T. bartschi in Oyster Creek was more widespread than in 1977 (2). Because the generating station was not operating during most of the period reported here, high growth rates were not correlated with Oyster Creek. Growth rate is related to the species, degree of crowding, and temperature (3, 4); growth declined in September. Mortality was alsc related to crowding, and was significant only at a few stations (#12, 18). Exact quantitative estimates of mortality are difficult in badly damaged panels because the valves and pallets of the shipworns fall out of the wood. For this reason, mortality is underestimated at stations 10-12 and 18. Likewise, mortality of newly-settled juveniles goes unrecorded because they fail to leave impressions in the wood. 55 7n- ,c,
The gonad size and gonad: body weight ratio indicate that there is a greater reproductive potential in Oyster Creek. The contradictory fact that the gonad: body weight ratio was higher at control stations in October may mean that the Oyster Creek specimens spawned out earlier, or it may be an artifact of small sample size. The only major fouling organism which had a distribution related to the operation of the power plant in this quarter was Electra crustu-lenta. Without increased salinity, it would be absent or ra e in Oyster Creek and Forked River. In general, fouling was less abundant in the fall of 1978 than in the fall of 1977, except at station 14 where little change was noted. The reason for the difference is not known. The total number of fouling species in Oyster Creek declined in fall, due to high August temperatures and heavy siltation. The silt affected Enteromorpha intestinalis and other algae as well as Electra crustulenta; barnacles were not affected. We have reported the finding of Mercierell igmatica, an intro-duced polychaete, in Oyster Creek and Fork. 'ver (5). We have no evidence that it is related to 'he thern >lume; it is not a warm-water species. The slightly lower salinity in Oyster Creek compared with Forked River is due to an influx of fresh water from both Oyster Creek _ d the upper parts of Forked River. Low salinities at stations 6 and 9 compared with 5 during the summer and in November were due to de-watering activities for installation of sewer pipes. These activi-ties had no noticeable impact on the marine fauna, except at the point of entry, where fouling was scarce and turbidity was high. The negative effect of the Generating Station on wooden structures via shipwonn attack is not the only biological problem to have arisen from the operation o# the Station. Increase in biochemical oxygen demand due to entrainment of organisms in the cooling water system has been reported (6). The thermal plume has affected fish distri-butions (7), caused fish kills (8), altered growth patterns (3), and extended the breeding season of invertebrates (9). Still unresolved are the impact of these changes on the entire Barnegat Bay ecosystem, and the possible future spread of Teredo bartschi in Forked River. 56 aic ,

The growth, dis ribution, and species composition of marine borers (primarily ship-worms) and . fouling organisms are being studied in the vicinity of the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generati ig Station, Barnegat Bay, New Jersey. Untreated wood test panels are used to coll !ct organisms at 18 localities. Out nost recent findings covering September-November,1978, are that at least one subtropical species of the borer family Teredinidie continues to live in Oyster Creek; it now breeds at the mouth of Forked River. T1e subtropical Teredo bartschi living in Oyster Creek retained well-developed larvac in the gills through Ncvember, while the native species B. gouldi spawned out. Tt e gonads of B. gouldi were vanishingly small in November. Larvae of T. bartschi set . led in Oyster Creek and larvae of the native T. navalis settled on Long Beach Islar d in September, but no la'ter. The last B. gouldi of the season settled in Augus.
