Environmental Science and Engineering, Inc. of Gainesville, Florida has conducted an environmental baseline monitoring program for the Department of Energy at two proposed sites for an Atmospheric Fluidized-Bed Combustion/Component Test and Integration Unit (AFBC/CTIU) research facility in Morgantown, West Virginia. Baseline data was collected for water quality (seasonal variations and storm event monitoring), air quality (sulfur dioxide (SO/sub 2/) and total suspended particulate matter (TSP)), and noise levels. This report presents and discusses all data collected during the annual sampling period from April 25, 1977 through April 26, 1978. The Burroughs Run watershed will receive the major impact of the proposed CTIU facility because its headwaters are located adjacent to the proposed site. The Burroughs Run watershed has been degraded by the uncontrolled discharge of storm water runoff from existing impervious surfaces and eroded lands. This degradation was indicated by the presence of nitrogen, phosphorus, heavy metals, organic and inorganic oxygen-demanding materials, oil and grease, sulfates, suspended solids, color, turbidity, and alkalinity in the storm water samples. The storm water runoff from the proposed CTIU facility should not cause any significant changes in the water quality of Burroughs Run. The baseline water quality data indicated that stream degradation may be attributed to septic tank failures, outflow from sanitary sewers, general wash-off of pollutants from roads and parking lots, industrial discharge, and erosion. Winter data showed a high dissolved solids concentration which may result from de-icing salts on adjacent roads.
