Only data available for assessment is stream use assessment data from Ringgold county in 1986.

Basis for Assessment

Changed the assessment of support of the Class B(LR) aquatic life uses from FST to "not assessed" to the lack of recent information:  the only data for this stream are more than 10 years old.   Additional monitoring is needed to update this assessment and to determine the status of the aquatic communities and habitats.
