 Metal Loading of the B. Everett Jordan Reservoir
The 14,300-acre B. Everett Jordan Reservoir, located in the Cape Fear River Basin, North Carolina, impounds waters of the New Hope and Haw Rivers which receive industrial and municipal waste discharges from Greensboro, Reidsville, Burlington, Haw River, Durham, and Chapel Hill.
Jordan Lake is expected to receive metals principally from the suspended sediments discharged to the reservoir during high flow and to have elevated metal concentrations in bottom sediments.
Recycling of metals from the sediment to the water column may elevate concentrations in segments of the lake north of Highway 64, where water circulation is constrained and where eutrophic conditions are anticipated.

Stocking Jordan Lake with striped bass instead of Bodie bass is even more important in light of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' plans to modify lock and dam operations on the Cape Fear River.
In Jordan Lake, anglers have reeled in striped bass and Bodie bass since the stocking program began in 1996.
It is unlikely, however, that Jordan Lake will support a trophy striped bass fishery because habitat for striped bass is likely marginal during the summer months.
