Basis for Assessment

Continued to use the assessment of support of the Class B(LW) aquatic life uses (=PS) developed for the 1994 report.   This assessment was reviewed and approved by the DNR Wildlife Bureau.   The DNR Wildlife Biologist identified hydrological habitat modifications and siltation from nonpoint sources as the primary threats to water quality.   Exotic/noxious aquatic plants were not identified as a water quality problem.
