Title:  

Charleston Side-Channel Reservoir Sedimentation Basin Project Final Report

 
 Volume/Number:  2007 July 10 
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  The Charleston Side-Channel Reservoir (CSCR) was the subject of a USEPA Clean Lakes Program (314) diagnostic/feasibility report in 1992. This document developed hydrologic, nutrient and sediment budgets for the CSCR. The CSCR has two watersheds: one that flows directly into the reservoir (the immediate watershed) and one whose water is selectively pumped into the reservoir. The immediate watershed was the number one source of sediment loading, third highest for nitrate loading and fourth for phosphorus loading of the reservoir. The largest source of loading for phosphorus was internal phosphorus cycling. Second largest source was from shoreline erosion. In 1996 a large aeration system was installed in order to curtail internal phosphorus loading. In 1994 the first in a series of erosion control projects was started in an effort to reduce erosion related loading.
