Assessment Comments
1991 SUA: habscr/fshscr: 21/- (fish not collected). 1998 Biocriteria: Fish IBI= 62 (good), BM-IBI= 62 (good).
Basis for Assessment
The aquatic life use support was upgraded to fully supported (FS) based on a comparison of the re-calculated 1998 F-IBI and BM-IBI scores [62 (good), 62(good)] with biological assessment criteria established specifically for the 2002 Section 305(b) report.
