Documentation
Assessment Comments
Assessed based on results of September 1990 IDNR stream use assessment conducted in Plymouth county.
Basis for Assessment
Stream assessment form indicates fairly good habitat. Snag habitat and relatively deep pools were observed. Channelization is fairly common. Also used WQ monitoring data and info from stream use designation surveys on Sept. 5, 1990 to assess support of aquatic life uses as FST. Had 1 of 36 samples exceed acute criterion for TRC. DNR staff used BPJ to assess as PS due to siltation and nutrients from agricultural NPS.
