Assessment based on reports by IDNR Wildlife Bureau.

Basis for Assessment

Waterbody not designated for beneficial uses in the Iowa Water Quality Standards as of June 1996.   This publicly-owned waterbody was added to the list of Iowa wetlands in 1994 at the suggestion of the DNR Wildlife Bureau.  

Comments of DNR Wildlife Biologist indicate most of the wetland is protected by public land ownership and the wetland status would likely be FS if it was designated for B(LW) uses.   For purposes of Section 305(b) reporting, consider the aquatic life uses of the wetland to be fully supported.
