Documentation
Assessment Comments
Assessment is based on results of two October 1995 DNR stream use assessments.
Basis for Assessment
For 1996 report, used results of two DNR stream use assessments to assess support of the Class B(WW) aquatic life uses as PS due to (1) extensive channelization of entire reach, (2) habitat scores (22 and 23) and fish scores (11 and 12) marginal for a relatively large stream, (3) notes on field sheets referring to extensive channelization. Stream assessments show that this reach of the Boyer R. definitely supports a fish community, but habitat diversity is much reduced over a more meandered condition.
