This figure is based upon measured quantities from the two watersheds south of the campus. The Union Calendar No. 469 entitled 'Phosphates in Detergents and the Eutrophi- cation of Americap Waters," page 21 (U.S. House Report No. 91-1004 of the 91st Con­ gress, Second Session) shows an estimation of the annual inputs of phosphorus into Lake Erie, This report shows that Lake Erie an­ nually receives 6,740,000 short tons of phosphorus from "land drainage". Con­ sidering the size of the wa­ tershed, .this also is. con­ siderably less than 1/10 of a pound per acre per year of phosphorus. Q: No mention was made of micronutrients. Are they ever pollutants and how ef­ fective is soil in absorbing them? • A: The micronutrients manganese, zinc, copper, and iron exist in soils as cations, that is, particles with apositive charge. These are held rather strongly on the negatively charged sur­ faces of clay and humus. For this reason, these essential micronutrients are relative­ ly immobile and not subject to rapid removal by water. The other essential micro­ nutrients, namely boron, chlorine, and molybdenum exist in the soil primarily as anions, that is, negatively .charged particles, and are therefore more subject to leaching-. Trie "amounts of these mlcrondirlSnts found in the soil, however, is gen­ erally so small that the soil water usually contains very insignificant amounts. These same" micronutri­ ents and others may be used in some industrial proc­ esses. Because of this, they may be present in discharge water in such quantities that they are considered pol­ Aldan lutants.
