Assessment Comments
Stream use assessment in 1991.
Basis for Assessment
Used results of the March 1991 DNR stream use assessment to assess support of the Class B(LR) aquatic life uses as FST due to (1) habitat score (25) much better than overall median habitat score (22) for DNR stream use assessments, (2) fish score (11) better than 75th percentile score (10) for stream assessments made with seines, and (3) field notes that indicate diverse substrates, occurrence of pools/riffles, only isolated habitat alterations, and numerous snags in the stream. Continued support of the B(LR) uses is threatened by agricultural NPS impacts including stream channelization.
