Assessment Comments
Stream use assessment in 1990.
Basis for Assessment
Stream use assessment form indicates slightly below average habitat for fully supporting/threatened assessment. However, assessment was completed very close to general use boundary in the headwaters where the stream appears to have been straightened. Much of B(LR) segment is well-meandered and has timber riparian buffer and therefore probably has better habitat than was observed at assessment site. Fish community observed was relatively diverse with good numbers of fish present.
