Assessment Comments
1991 stream use assessment in Scott County.
Basis for Assessment
Used a review of the field sheet from the August 1991 DNR stream use assessment in Scott 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 Mississippi River basin portion of the Southern Rolling Loess Prairies subecoregion and (2) indications of approximately average quality aquatic habitats, with no significant impacts to the physical characteristics of the stream noted. The data upon which this assessment is based are more than 5 years old. Additional monitoring is needed to update this assessment and to determine the status of the aquatic communities and habitats. Special attention should be given to evaluating the fish community for disease/health problems.
