INTRODUCTION
Dudley Pond is located in the Village of Cochituate , in the Town of Wayland , Massachusetts • It is in Middlesex County
I
Approx~mately
16 miles west of the City of Boston.
It is situated just northeast of Lake Cochituate , and between two major roadways , Route 126 (Old Connecticut Path) and Route 27 . These roadways run parallel to the western and eastern sections of the pbnd
I
respectively . The pond is
found on the Natick and Framingham Quadrangles of the U.S. Dept. of the
Inte~ior
Geological Survey maps • Both Quadrangles
contain a portion of the pond • The pond is fed by rainfall and·an inlet on the

Dudley Pond has an unusual shape . It looks like a "horseshoe" and appears- that" way from the satelli te photos .
A peninsula runs into the middle of three basins • The peninsula resembles a glacial esker , with an elevation of . approximately fouty feet higher than water level . The southern and northern
b~sins
of the pond are shallow with
an average depth of 5 to 6 ft. depending on the season. The western basin is the deepest of the three and has an average depth of approximately 17 ft.
'ftw basins could be formed
by the phenomenon of glacial action called "kettle holes" .
Kettle holes can be very dl'Pp and

THERE ARE PLANS ON FILE WITH THE WAYLAND TOWN SURVEYOR SHOWING THE PARCELING OF LOTS WITH FRONTAGE AS SMALL AS TWENTY FEET FOR LOTS WITH LAND OF LESS THAN ONE-EIGHTH ACRE WHICH WERE LIKELY TO HAVE CONTAINED INSUFFICI ENT SPACE TO SUPPORT ADEQUATE SEPTIC SYSTEMS. A LOCAL NEWSPAPER RECENTLY REPORTED THAT THE PROMOTIONAL EFFORTS FOR THE SUBDivISioNS INCLUDED EVENTS SUCH AS LOTTERIES AT MOVIE

THIS
TYPE OF INTENSIVE LAND USE WAS OBVIOUSLY ECOLOGICALLY UNINFORMED AND WOULD NOT BE ACCEPTABLE BY TODAY'S STANDARDS. SINCE THEN. THERE HAS BEEN A PROGRESSIVE EFFORT BY THE TOWN TO REGOVER FROM THE DAMAGING EFFECTS OF THIS INTENSIVE DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE CONSOLIDATION OF LAND PASCELS AND THE UPGRADING OF SEPTIC SYSTEMS.

DUDLEY POND STUDY - HISTORY
DUdley Pond in Wayland , Massachusetts , used to be a pristine body of fresh water • In 1959 , archaeologists found evidence (Mansion Inn site) that Dudley was the habitat of archaic indian tribes • They were labeled "the Soapstone Indians" , for the relics found were made of soapstone • The clean water of Dudley (along with it's neighbor, Lake Cochituate) was used as the first pUblic water supply for the City of Boston, and was pumped into Boston Common in 1848 • Around the turn of the 1900's • the connecting pipeiine to Lake Cochituate was closed and Boston received it's
w~ter
,
elsewhere. yet Dudley was still used to
•
supply fresh ice • In the winter months • Ice was cut from the~ond
and sold commercially. The Ice House is indicated
on an old 1912 map of the pond ( location R-2) on location key map - also see 9/1)/12 map) • After the pond was no longer used to supply Boston's water, it became open for pUblic use' and recreation . The pond soon grew into acclaim as one of the best large mouth bass fishing spots in the state • Clear , clean water was another of DUdley's prominent features . Many long time residents of the pond .
'.
recall how clear and translucent the water used to be • Page 26 of 99

DUDLEY POND STUDY - HISTORY
Dudley Pond remained fairly clean and biologically balanced up to the 50's • When Lake Cochituate was closed for swimming due to biologicai reasons , Dudley still tested out to be "safe" • It was during the late 50's and early 60's that indications of a speeded up eutrophication process began • In the 60's , Dudley was begining to get choked with weeds and pond lillya • Fresh water jellyfish, such as the Medusa spp. , began to dissapear along with large bass and pickerel • The motorboats were very prevalent , and many boaters took sport in running'over the many muskrats that dwelled on the pond • Soon , the
popul~tion
of the largest
herbivore (muskrat) was diminished and the pond lilly <I
growth began to be uninhibited • Because of the aquatic plants becoming a nuisance to recreation (mostly motorboats) Dudley was treated with chemicals to inhibit weeds and lillys • The first recorded treatment was in 1968 (see water treatment data). Since that time, DUdley has received periodic chemical treatments , and has had algae blooms occuring each year • During
~he
70's, the speed limit on the pond (for boats)
was lifted to allow waterskiers • Dudley Pond is now Page 27 of 99

DUDLEY POND - HISTORY
over-fished for bass • over-boated by skiers • over-nourished with nitrates and phosphates • and is in a severe state of eutrophication as well as sUffering from "recreational fatigue". Dudley Pond is now biologically imbalanced • Some species have become
rapidly extinct • while other
"nuisance" organisms and species are thriving • In the spring months • Dudley is choked with filamentous green algae • And in the latter weeks of summer. the pond's color is turned to pea-green
fro~
the blue-green algae blooms •
The "once clean
t '
waters of this "Great Pond" must
now be listed with other ponds and lakes that are also in a severe state • and far from the pristine body of water that
..
they once were • DUdley pond is located in the village of Cochituate , the name
of the village translates from the
ind ian meaning of "clear rushing water" • A her! tags from the past is now a goal for the future •

CURRENT DEVELOPMENT The level of development is very high. The only parcels available for building which meet the current zoning require足 ments are indicated in red on the large map, and there are only a few of them. A rough count indicates that less than one-third of the lots in the watershed meet the current zoning of 20,000 square feet. Some of the lots, particularly near the water, are as small as 5,000 square feet. Most of the homes in the aatershed are now permanent, year足 round dwellings. A street and household list for the watershed has been comp足 iled.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT Doran Road - East side of pond, between it and Main Street . The Wayland Housing Authority applies every year for funding for an Elderly Housing project of up to 95 units. It will be sited on a 7.2 acre parcel of town-owned land. (Location is marked on the large map). The Director of the Housing Authority expects that public private funding will be obtained in the next five years. Only
pr~liminary
unit-siting plans have been drawn.

RECREATIONAL USE
1. Swimming Access is informal.
There are no facilities, such as
changing houses or toilets.
Area residents are assumed to
be the primary users.
2. Boating/Fishing
There are three boat access points on DUdley Pond - at the beach; at the end of Matthews Drive, and off DUdley Road on the eastern shore.
Again, there are no formal facilit
ies, such as ramps. There is a Pond Patrol Officer on duty on weekends during the summer. (Noon to 6 p.m.)
He is empowered to enforce
the town's regUlations. Over-powered boats can be asked to leave the poad - this has been done recently. The Patrol Officer will keep boat counts during the summer of 1979 •

ROAD MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
All the roads around Dudley Pond are either paved or dirt. All the roads are plowed and sanded during the winter.
The
Highway ftepartment customarily uses m mix of 6-7 parts Band to one part salt. warrant.
The salt content is raised if conditions
The dirt roads need heavier sanding, as they hold
heat less well. In the Spring, the paved roads are swept, and as much debris as possible is removed. The dirt roads are graded three or four times a year, and treated for dust with either calcium chloride or used motor oil once during the summer.
The application may be repeated
if conditions warrant.

SEWAGE DISPOSAL PRACTICES
~.
The entire town relies on on-site soil absorption sewage systems.
There is no mandatory inspection or maintenance
program.
The town has relatively few records or the systems k!lth.~:thEL.Board
in the Dudley Pond watershed - riling of plans
ct--Health has been required only within the last rew years. The Town expedts to build a septage disposal facility, and it 1s expected that records of
volum~s
pumped
f~dm
each address
wIll be kept by the Board of Health. A house-to-house s~oreline
septio system survey was done along the
of Dudley Pond in the 1950 1 s.
This data is available;
there is no record or action taken. The entire town was sur.veyed in the 1960 l s (during the plann ing for the septage facility) as to septic system maintenance practices (frequency of pumping, satisfaction with system) •
•
This data is also available, but the most pertinent set of answers covers a larger area than the watershed, and the return
.
rate was about 50%.

TOWN WATER PRACTICES
Virtually all homes in town have their water supplied.
The
water comes from gravel packed wells, ranging from 42 to 6) feet in depth.
The yearly average pumped is 106 million gallons
per day, though summer demand can rise as high as 4 million gallons per day.
The supply is good - the last ban on use was
in 1963.
The nearest towm well to Dudley Pond appears to be approx imately 4,000 feet from the outlet. perhaps 500 feet from this well •

Dudley Pond has a spring Bloom of diatoms • followed by a Bloom of filamentous Green Algae (predominated by Spirogyra SPl :~
and later in the summer (approximately August 10) • Bluegreen Algae (anabaenopsis • nos toe • and anacystis spp.) becomes the major problem. Chemicals were applied in August 1978 (see section on chemical treatment) • but they had little ,effect on the Bloom (see microscopic examination) •

Large living colonies of Bryozoa can be found during the late summer months (pre'ferably August) • The most common varity is the Pectinatella Magnifica that is identified by scraping the statoblasts from it's jelly mass and exarninating them under the microscope • The mass can creep along the old debris on the pond's edge, and releases it's statoblaets in the fall months , to
propagate in the following summer •
They are most often found in the shallows , attached to sticks and nuphSr pond lilly . Bryozoans do not like to live in polluted water and their presence in DUdley Pond is un-common • In the past years- , they were quite common and abundant , now they are rare to find •

Each round of. samples to be verified by at least five (5) separate dilutions of a standard phosphate solution, each sample and standard being prepared for analysis by filtration through a 0.4S~icron filter pad. Total Phosphorus as P by Persulfate digestion Method followed by determination as for Orthophosphate above. Ammonia Nitrogen as N by Direct Nesslerization Method, with each roune of samples to be verified by at least five (5) separate dilutions of an ammonia standard solution·, with each sample and standard being prepared f~r analysis by precipi tation with alkaline zinc sulfate, followed by filtration through Whatman No. 40 paper pads. N~trate Nitrogen as N by Brucine Method, each round of samples to be verified by at least five (5) 8eparate dilutions of n nitrate standard, with each sample and standard to be prepared for analysis by filtration through a 0.4S-micron filter pad. Procedure calls for inCubation of all samples, after addition of test reagents, for 25 minutes at 95 0 C. in a water bath incubator. Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen by Digestion (using HpnQ~r procedures and rnacro-Kjeldahl flasks), followed by Distillation into indicating boric acid solution, followed by titration with stan~ dard sulfuric acid solution. Due to the complexity of this procedure, the duplicate analysis condition will be waived in this procedure. However, should the result of any analysis be questionable, the other half of that sample shall be run through the procedure as a verification. Each round of samples is to

Biochemical Oxygen Demand using standard procedures, with four (4) dilutions of each sample being incubated at 20 0 C. for five (5) days, using sample volumes of 50, 100, 150 and 200 m1. in each set of four (4) 300-ml. dilution bottles. A seed of 2 m1. of raw sewage will be added to each bottle, and three (3) blank bottles (dilution water and seed) will be prepared with each round of samples. Nitrification inhibitor will be added to each bottle prior to incubation, and final dissolved oxygen determinations will be made using the Winkler method with PAO titrant. As in the Kjeldahl proce足 dure, the duplicate analysis condition will be waived in this procedure.

Within 24 hours after completion of compositing of a sample, it shall be analyzed for Chloride and all preparations of samples for Biochemical Oxygen Demand and Bacteriological in~ubations shall be completed. Upon completion of these procedures, the balance of each sample shall be acidified to a pH of less than 2 using sulfuric acid, and stored at a temperature of 40 C. until the balance of the analyses can be completed. All analyses shall be completed within .72 hours of completion of sample compositing, and due to the limited staff and facilities of WASTEC's Wayland laboratory, each round of samples shall be collected in three groups, with the six (6) stream samples being in one group, and the ten (10) pond samples being in two groups of five (5) each.
