• W36912332 abstract "The Vernon River basin drains 16,000 acres of densely populated, urbanized area that includes portions of the City of Savannah and Chatham County and all of the City of Vernonburg. The upper reaches of the basin are comprised of several urban storm water drainage canals, including Casey Canal, which discharge into Hayners Creek, one of many small feeder creeks draining to the Vernon River. Hayners Creek and Casey Canal are listed on Georgia's 303(d) list as not supporting their des- ignated Fishing classification due to fecal coliform, dis- solved oxygen, and fish consumption guideline water quality criteria. Conventional methods to determine the source of fecal coliform bacteria have been unsuccessful to date. Stakeholders within the Vernon River Watershed, in- cluding the Skidaway Institute of Oceanography, the cities of Savannah and Vernonburg, the Chatham County Heath Department, and Integrated Science & Engineering, Inc, understand that is critically important to identify the sources of fecal contamination in order to develop a workable management plan to eliminate the identified sources. Through Georgia Environmental Protection Divi- sion 319 grant funding assistance, the Vernon River Stakeholders' Project Team will utilize Assessing Multi- ple Antibiotic Resistance (MAR) and Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) Fingerprinting to track and identify the source of bacterial contamination in the Vernon River basin. This project will also evaluate viral tagging of fecal bacteria in septic systems as an effective indicator of septic function- ality. Once the source(s) of fecal contamination are identi- fied through the bacterial source tracking program, the Project Team will develop best management practices to address and eliminate those identified sources. Once es- tablished, these BMPs will likely be incorporated into the future TMDL Implementation Plan for the Vernon River basin. Because this basin is typical of coastal communities in the region, the BMPs developed through this project will likely be applicable on a regional scale. PROJECT BACKGROUND The Vernon River is a meandering tidal creek that drains a narrow stretch of salt marsh forming part of the southeast boundary between the City of Savannah and the southeast portion of unincorporated Chatham County. The town of Vernonburg is on a peninsula of high ground at an oxbow bend on the west bank of the river, and is bordered on all other sides by the city of Savannah. The Vernon River is one of many tidal creeks that make up the Ogeechee River Estuary. The topography of the area is low and flat with most of the land surface at a height of 10 to 20 feet above mean sea level. Land use in the basin is a combination of commercial areas and single and multi-family residential areas. Most of the City of Savannah to the north and west, and some neighborhoods to the east of the Vernon River are served by sanitary sewers. The sewage treatment plants serving these areas discharge their effluent to the Savannah River several miles north of this basin. There are approximately 2500 septic systems within this basin, approximately 80% of which are in unincorporated Chatham County. The Town of Vernonburg and a few neighborhoods within Savannah also rely on septic systems. The Casey Canal and Hayners Creek are both listed as impaired waterways due to fecal coliform water contami- nation, yet the source or sources remain allusive. Conven- tional dye testing, smoke testing and even televising of sanitary sewer lines have all failed to identify leaks and or cross connections between sanitary sewers and stormwater systems. . Septic systems in the Vernon River Basin are a sus- pected source of fecal bacteria contamination. Drainage ditches in areas served by individual septic systems have tested high for fecal coliform bacteria. Soil types found within this basin are not optimal for septic system func- tion, and the tidal nature of the basins could also affect riparian septic systems' effectiveness. Traditionally the Health Department has utilized dye tracers to test the in- tegrity of septic systems, however, there is some question as to the efficacy of this method. To date, dye testing of" @default.
