  • Summary of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Suspended-Sediment Loads and Trends Measured at the Chesapeake Bay Nontidal Network Stations for Water Years 2009–2018
    Summary of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Suspended-Sediment Loads and Trends Measured at the Chesapeake Bay Nontidal Network Stations for Water Years 2009–2018 Prepared by Douglas L. Moyer and Joel D. Blomquist, U.S. Geological Survey, March 2, 2020 The Chesapeake Bay nontidal network (NTN) currently consists of 123 stations throughout the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Stations are located near U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) stream-flow gages to permit estimates of nutrient and sediment loadings and trends in the amount of loadings delivered downstream. Routine samples are collected monthly, and 8 additional storm-event samples are also collected to obtain a total of 20 samples per year, representing a range of discharge and loading conditions (Chesapeake Bay Program, 2020). The Chesapeake Bay partnership uses results from this monitoring network to focus restoration strategies and track progress in restoring the Chesapeake Bay. Methods Changes in nitrogen, phosphorus, and suspended-sediment loads in rivers across the Chesapeake Bay watershed have been calculated using monitoring data from 123 NTN stations (Moyer and Langland, 2020). Constituent loads are calculated with at least 5 years of monitoring data, and trends are reported after at least 10 years of data collection. Additional information for each monitoring station is available through the USGS website “Water-Quality Loads and Trends at Nontidal Monitoring Stations in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed” (https://cbrim.er.usgs.gov/). This website provides State, Federal, and local partners as well as the general public ready access to a wide range of data for nutrient and sediment conditions across the Chesapeake Bay watershed. In this summary, results are reported for the 10-year period from 2009 through 2018.

    DRAFT POLLUTANT REDUCTION PLAN FOR AKRON BOROUGH, LANCASTER COUNTY Prepared by: 20 C Snyder Lane Ephrata, PA 17522-9101 Phone: 717.721.7444 Fax: 717.721.7447 HanoverEng.com Hanover Project AKR17-14(CBP) Introduction Akron Borough is located in northern Lancaster County, PA within both the Cocalico Creek and Conestoga River Watersheds. Akron Borough is comprised of approximately 832 acres; and includes—but is not limited to—residential, commercial, institutional, recreational and agricultural land uses. The Borough is within the Susquehanna River Watershed and therefore drains into the Chesapeake Bay. The entire area of the Borough is located within the 2010 Urbanized Area (47530- Lancaster, PA). The Borough is located northeast of the City of Lancaster and is bisected by PA Route 272. 100% of the Urbanized Area includes components of the MS4 (e.g. piping, outfalls, etc.). The regulated MS4 discharges to the following waterways: • Cocalico Creek (western side of the Borough) • Conestoga River (eastern side of the Borough) Approximately 562 acres of the Borough drain to the Cocalico Creek Watershed while the other 270 acres drain to the Conestoga River. A. Public Participation Public participation is an important component for a successful MS4 program. The enclosed combined Pollutant Reduction Plan for the impaired waters of Cocalico Creek and the Chesapeake Bay was published for public review and comment on July 26, 2017. Notice of the public review period was advertised in the Ephrata Review on July 26, 2017. A copy of the public notice is provided in Appendix A. The public was provided with 30 days to review and comment on the Pollution Reduction Plan at which point the comments were considered and a copy of the Borough’s record of consideration is included in Appendix B.
