Assessment Comments
Stream use assessment in Clayton County.
Basis for Assessment
Used a review of the field sheet from the November 1991 DNR stream use assessment in Clayton County to continue to assess support of the Class B(LR) aquatic life uses as FST due to (1) presence of a majority of the expected fish taxa (5 of 9) for streams in the Driftless Area ecoregion and (2) indications on the field sheet of high quality aquatic habitats (see 1994 report). The data upon which this assessment is based are more than 5 years old. Additional monitoring is needed to update this assessment and to better determine the status of the aquatic communties of this stream.
