mouth (S26 T71N R20W Lucas Co.) to confluence with unnamed tributary in S10 T71N R20W Lucas Co.
Assessment Comments
Two stream use assessments in November 1990.
Basis for Assessment
Used results of the two November 1990 DNR stream use assessments to assess support of the Class B(LR) aquatic life uses as FST due to (1) habitat score at lower site (23) better than the overall median score (22) for DNR stream use assessments, (2) indications on field sheets for both assessments of diverse to very diverse substrates, several pool/riffle sequences, only isolated channel altertations, and relatively stable stream banks, and (3) comment on field sheet indicationg "good habitat." Fish scores (10 and 9) were relatively low. Field sheets suggest that continued support of the Class B(LR) uses is threatened by channel straightening.
