Basis for Assessment

SUMMARY: The Class A (primary contact recreation uses) were "not assessed." Continued to assess support of the Class B(LW) aquatic life uses as "partially supported." The Class C (drinking water) and fish consumption uses both remained "not assessed. EXPLANATION: The level of support of the Class A (primary contact recreation) uses was changed from "partially supported" to "not assessed" due to the lack of information on levels of indicator bacteria at this lake. This change in assessment reflects a change in the DNR's Section 305(b) assessment methodology and does not reflect any known change in water quality. The previous (1998) assessment of support of the Class B(LW) uses ("partially supported") was reviewed and approved by the DNR Fisheries Bureau in 2000. The Class C (drinking water) uses remained "not assessed" due to a lack of water quality information upon which to base an assessment. Fish consumption uses remain "not assessed" due to the lack of fish contaminant monitoring at this lake.
