Assessment Comments
Assessment based on September 1990 IDNR stream us assessment conducted in Plymouth county.
Basis for Assessment
Continued to use the assessment of support of the Class B(LR) aquatic life uses developed for the 1996 report (=PS). Based on a review of the field sheet from the September 1990 DNR stream use assessment, this fish commuity lacks several species/genera typcial of Class B(LR) streams in this region. Follow-up monitoring is needed to determine the status of the aquatic communities and habitats and to determine the degree to which the Class B(LR) uses may be impaired.
