Pesticide Surface Water Monitoring in the U.S. and Oregon

• USGS Monitoring• National Water Quality

Assessment Program (NAWQA)

• Clackamas studies

• DEQ/ODA Monitoring• Pesticide Stewardship

Partnership (PSP)• 9 Watersheds• 4 in Willamette Valley

610/17/2019

ESA/FIFRA - National Research Council Review (2013)

• Evaluate current pesticide risk assessment approaches relating to ESA listed species (biological opinions)

• Reach consensus on common risk assessment methods– Modelling/model assumptions– Geospatial information– Characterize effects direct, indirect, sublethal

and cumulative; mixtures and inert ingredients– Characterize uncertainty

Sustainable Agriculture and Forestry

• The core concept of sustainability1 is that lasting success requires an integrated approach to:

• producing food, fiber, and other products • farm and forest profitability • quality of life for farmers, foresters, and communities • stewardship of natural resources

• Sustainability requires recognizing and acting upon productivity, economic, social, and environmental goals as a simultaneous set of system attributes.

Pesticides in surface water

Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT)• Watershed scale model1

• Developed by USDA Agricultural Research Service

• Based on over 40 years of expertise

• Developed to evaluate the impact of land management practices on:

• Hydrology• Erosion/Sediment transport• Nutrient fate• Pesticide fate

• Physically based process model that operates on a daily time step

• GIS interface, ArcSWAT, used for spatially explicit parameterization using readily available data

Zollner Creek Watershed, Willamette Basin, Oregon

• HUC12 - 15mi2 watershed

• Watershed area 90% agriculture: > 600 fields, >30 crops

• Pesticide surface water monitoring since 1993 (USGS and Oregon DEQ)

• Contains critical habitat for Upper Willamette chinook and steelhead ESUs

• Weather characterized by dry summers and wet winters

• USGS stream flow gage (Station ID: 14201300)

Characterizing Pesticide Use Patterns

• All authorized uses (federal/state labeled uses)

• Actual use records • Proprietary • Logistically difficult• Retrospective

• Probabilistic methods based on local knowledge• Realistic boundary conditions (pest management

along crop timelines)• Characterize complex decision making process

(producers, CCAs, Extension)• Both retrospective and prospective – evaluate future

outcomes24

Labels for Oregon – PICOL database

Collaborate with CCAs and growers to refine use

estimates

Create boundary conditions for probabilistic analysis of

Probabilistic Assessment of Application Patterns

• Management operations randomized by field• Applications limited to workable days• Application rates were both probabilistic and deterministic• Pesticides Properties DataBase1 representative values

• Monte Carlo methods utilized to create spatial and temporal distribution of application patterns

• 500 SWAT scenarios generated and run

• Generate a distribution of spatial and temporal patterns of pesticide use practices

• Estimate likely pesticide use patterns
