Basis for Assessment
This waterbody is not in Iowa's current surface water classification (http://www.iowadnr.gov/water/standards/files/swcdoc2.pdf) and is thus classified only for general uses. As such, only the general use protection for aquatic life will be assessed.
SUMMARY/EXPLANATION: The aquatic life uses remain assessed (evaluated) as "fully supported” based on information from the IDNR Wildlife Bureau. This assessment is the same as that developed for the previous assessment/listing cycles (not impaired).
