Basis for Assessment
Lake was monitored near the dam and inlet on February 2, 1993 for 7 ag herbicides in water and sediment. Low levels of atrazine (0.16 ug/l and 0.19 ug/l) were in water at the inlet and dam; no herbicides were detected in sediment. Compared to the other 14 reservoirs, levels of atrazine were low. Additional monitoring is needed to determine levels of herbicides during summer. Because level of atrazine were < 1/2 MCL, DW uses were assessed as FST.
