1 Blue Mountain Horticultural Society Annual Meeting February 1, 2007 Walla Walla Basin Pesticide Monitoring: Results Kevin Masterson Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (503) , ext. 260

2 Pesticide Stewardship Partnerships Voluntary, collaborative approach to improving water quality Monitor streams in basin and use data to focus implementation of best management practices (BMPs) Partners include: DEQ, watershed councils, SWCDs, OSU Extension, grower groups Walla Walla one of 6 basins where Stewardship Partnerships exist Hood River story broad participation & decreasing concentrations over time

3 Walla Walla Pesticide Stewardship Partnership ROLES OF PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS Sample Collection Walla Walla Basin Watershed Council Laboratory & Data Analysis Oregon DEQ BMP implementation, outreach and technical assistance Blue Mountain Horticultural Society OSU Extension SWCD Others?

4 Pesticide Monitoring Overview What are we sampling for? Organophosphate insecticides and triazine herbicides Why sample for these? Ethoprop (prophos) Dimethoate Simazine Atrazine Methylparathion Malathion Chlorpyrifos oxon Phosmet Oxygen Analog Guthion (azinphosmethyl) Azinphos-methyl Oxygen Analog Diazinon Imidan Current use products OP pesticides very Malathion Oxygen Analog Pyriproxyfen toxic to aquatic life Chlorpyrifos Fenvalerate + Esfenvalerate

5 Where and When Did Monitoring Occur? TIMING OF SAMPLE COLLECTION Sampling designed to coincide with spray applications Time Period Mid-March to Mid-April Mid-April to Mid-May Average Sampling Frequency 1-2 times per week Infrequent monitoring Mid-May to Early June 1-2 times per week

6 Where and When Did Monitoring Occur? SAMPLING LOCATIONS IN WALLA WALLA BASIN Sites sampled in 2005 and 2006 WW River at Grove School Bridge WW River at Pepper s Bridge S. Fork WW River at Harris Park WW River at Day Road South Little WW River at The Frog (in M-F) East Little WW River, N. of Stateline Road West Prong Little WW River, N. of Stateline Road New sites sampled only in 2006 West Branch/Crocket Little WW River Midwest Prong Little WW River

7 Where Were Pesticide Detections Found? No Pesticide Detections Minimal Number of Pesticide Detections Multiple Number of Pesticide Detections WW River at Grove School Bridge WW River at Pepper s Bridge S. Fork WW River at Harris Park WW River at Day Road South Little WW River at The Frog (1 in 2006) East Little WW River, N. of Stateline Road (2 in 2005) W. Prong Little WW Rv., N. of Stateline Rd. West Branch/Crocket Little WW River Midwest Prong Little WW River

11 Walla Walla Basin: Number of Pesticide Detections Note: 2 new sites sampled in 2006 Number of detections Azinphosmethyl Chlorpyrifos Diazinon Dimethoate Simazine

12 Walla Walla Basin: 2005 and 2006 Pesticide Concentrations median 2006 median (maximum) (7.4) Note: 2 new sites sampled in 2006 Median (ug/l) (0.99) (0.054) (0.49) (0.122) (6.2) (0.044) (0.52) (0.041) 0.00 Azinphosmethyl Chlorpyrifos Diazinon Dimethoate Simazine

13 West Prong Little WW River, N. of Stateline Rd. Number of Pesticide Detections Number of detections Azinphosmethyl Chlorpyrifos Diazinon

14 West Prong Little WW River, N. Stateline Rd median 2006 median (maximum) (0.54) Median (ug/l) (0.054) (0.064) (0.49) (0.122) (0.15) 0.00 Azinphosmethyl Chlorpyrifos Diazinon

15 What are the Take Home Messages? No detectable concentrations of pesticides in in main stem of Walla Walla River A few smaller tributaries had concentrations consistently above WQ standards 2 years of data aren t enough to show trends A direct 2005 to 2006 cumulative data comparison has limited value 2 new 06 sites with detections

16 What s Next? PLANNED AND POSSIBLE ACTIVITIES Pesticide monitoring will continue in 2007 and 2008 Explore BMP options and strategies Distribute Hood River Manual OSU Extension Workshop(s) One-on-one assistance EPA & DEQ securing funds for pesticide waste collection event for 07 and 08
