Subject: Evergreen frac sand permitting Piney Creek Izard County Professional Input to hearing for 25Jan11

Dear Ms. Jastrzebski,

We (Dr. William J. Matthews and Dr. Edith Marsh-Matthews, University of Oklahoma) wish to submit to the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality, Water Division, the attached material as formal input into the hearing process for issuance of a permit to the Evergreen Processing, LLC, for proposed Twin Mountain facility to be located 7.5 miles east of Calico Rock on Highway 56, Izard County, Arkansas. As I understand their application, which reviewed in detail, releases of water related to stormwater flows would have the potential to enter Piney Creek, which is an extremely high-quality Ozark mountain stream. I have made scientific studies of the fish of Piney Creek since 1972, joined by Dr. Marsh-Matthews since 1994, and more recently by Drs. Ginny and Reid Adams of Central Arkansas University. Dr. Marsh-Matthews and I submit our credentials as experts on the fish of Piney Creek, a summary of our recent finding in fish surveys in Piney Creek near and downstream of the proposed activity, and a summary statement. I request that this material be added to and considered in your decision-making process regarding the Evergreen Processing permit. While we present our credentials and provide the information on our employment, we make all statements and conclusions as individuals, and not representing the opinions of the University of Oklahoma or any of its internal units.

Thank you very much for your consideration. There are four attachments. I request that you acknowledge receipt by return email.

Sincerely,

William J. Matthews, PhD Professor and Chairman Department of Zoology University of Oklahoma Norman, OK 73019 [email protected] 405-325-6200

Comments on the Fishes of Piney Creek, Izard County Arkansas 24 January 2011 Dr. William J. Matthews, University of Oklahoma Dr. Edith Marsh-Matthews, University of Oklahoma

Summary

Piney Creek, in Izard County, Arkansas, contains a very rich and valuable native Ozark fish fauna. From the State Hwy 56 bridge downstream to near White River, our fish surveys in recent years have revealed a total of 41 native species, especially rich in minnows, sunfish, bass, darters, and other small-bodied fishes. Piney Creek has consistently had a very high quality fish fauna since at least the early 1970s, and our recent collections affirm that it has maintained this high quality over decades. Piney Creek has an excellent, reproducing population of smallmouth bass, which are attractive to anglers. Most fish species in Piney Creek depend on clean gravel substrates for reproduction, feeding, or shelter, and excessive silt is harmful to virtually all of these fishes. Any activity that has the potential to cause an increase in siltation of the Piney Creek streambed should not be allowed, as it can cause direct, serious harm to this important fish community.

All fish have been collected under provisions of Scientific Collecting Permits from the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, and with approval by the University of Oklahoma Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee.

Field Sites and Fish Surveys

In this report we address collections made most recently (2006, 2008, and 2010) at four permanent sampling sites at or downstream from Hwy 56, east of Calico Rock.

Those sites, and reference numbers used in all data bases and reporting, are, from upstream to downstream:

P-5: Piney Creek mainstream, at and below the State Hwy 56 bridge east of Calico Rock, a reach of approximately 250 meters from slightly above the highway bridge to and through the first large rock rapids.

P-4: Piney Creek mainstream at the Gorby Road crossing, from approximately 25 meters above to 175 meters below a concrete low-water bridge, including pools, rapids, and backwaters.

P-2: Piney Creek mainstream at the Jones Cemetery Road crossing, a reach of approximately 200 meters above and below the concrete slab crossing, including pools, rapids, and one large backwater.

P-1: Piney Creek mainstream above the Boswell Road bridge, a reach of approximately 200 m from high bluffs through a large downstream pool, and including a large rapids, smaller riffles and backwater pools, and a long sand-bottomed pool reach. This is approximately 1 mile above the confluence of Piney Creek with White River

At all sites, fish were collected by seining for approximately 1 hour, with 15 ft. x 4 ft. x 3/16” mesh in pools, and by “kicksets” with a 6 ft. x 4 ft. x 3/16” mesh seine in rapids and riffles. All fish were preserved for laboratory identification. Collections in 2006 and 2008 were under the permit to W. J. Matthews, and collections in 2010 were under permit to Dr. Reid Adams, Central Arkansas University, who sampled with us in the field. In 2008 and 2010 Dr. Ginny Adams, Central Arkansas University also worked with us to make samples.

Results and Conclusions

A summary of fishes present, by year (2006, 2008, 2010) is attached as Appendix A. A total of 41 native species of fish was found, collectively, in the four sites from Hwy 56 to near the White River. This represents a very rich, native Ozark fauna, with many species of minnows, sunfish, and bass, with substantial numbers of darters and sculpins. Piney Creek has, in all of WJM surveys, beginning in 1972, had a very rich fauna in excess of 40 species, and all indications are that this stream remains in excellent and near pristine condition with respect to fishes and conditions of the aquatic environment. It typically exhibits clear water, over clear gravels and coarse sand, and is excellent habitat for many species of fish. We detect no decline in quality of habitat of fish over the decades. In each individual survey we collected, by site, a range in numbers of species as follows: P-5: 25-26 species; P-4: 23-28 species; P-2:19-26 species; and P- 1: 22-28 species. These numbers of species are very high for any single collection, further indicating that Piney Creek from Hwy 56 to the White River is an exceptionally diverse, and important stream for native Ozark fishes.

Over all collections 2006-2010, there were, collectively, 16 species of minnows, 4 species of suckers, 3 species of catfishes, 2 species of topminnows, 1 species each of mosquitofish and silversides, 8 species of sunfish or black bass, 4 species of darters, and 2 species of sculpins.

Piney Creek is an excellent smallmouth bass stream, and it is fished actively by local anglers. We found smallmouth bass (Micropterus dolomieu) at all of our study sites, and in all but one individual collection. We typically found good numbers of young-of-year, thus the species has an important, naturally reproducing population. Piney Creek also has a substantial population of Ozark rock bass and bluegill sunfish, which can provide angling on light tackle. Piney Creek has, in addition, other sunfish species that are important predators and comprise an important component of a natural Ozark stream ecosystem. All of the sunfish and black bass species reproduce by building depression nests in gravel. Nests can only provide successful reproduction if males are able to keep the nest clear of silt and well-aerated. Any excessive silt will choke nests and kill eggs or larvae, thus any commercial activity that could cause an increase in siltation of the stream bed should be avoided for the well-being of these fishes.

Piney Creek has four species of native darters, three species of small catfishes including two “madtoms”, and two species of sculpins. These small-bodied fishes are an important component of the natural fish fauna of the stream. They live primarily in rocky rapids or riffles, and occupy spaces under or downstream of stones, where they lay eggs and feed on invertebrates. Any activity that causes silting in or increases embedding of stony stream bottoms would have a serious negative impact on these nine species of fishes.

Piney Creek has four species of native suckers, which are large-bodied fishes that primarily feed on stream bottoms, using their downturned mouths to winnow invertebrates from gravel substrates. These species depend on clean gravel as a foraging area, and also spawn in clean gravel riffles. Any activity resulting in increase siltation on stream beds would be harmful to these fish species.

Piney Creek has 16 species of native minnows and two species of native topminnows. Most of these species feed up in the water column, often on invertebrates that drift on currents, although some of the minnows feed on algae (Campostoma anomalum) or biofilms (Dionda nubila, Pimephales notatus) on stream bottoms. These, in particular, would be harmed by any excessive siltation. Additionally most of the minnows lay eggs on clean gravel substrates in flowing water, and they do forage on stream bottoms at times for insects associated with stones. Any activity increasing siltation would thus be harmful to these fishes.

Stream invertebrates: The majority of native fish in Piney Creek feed all or in part on aquatic invertebrates. Most such invertebrates live in or on stony substrates, and any activity that increases siltation would be harmful to these invertebrates, and thus to fishes by decreasing their food source.
