Assessment Comments

Stream use assessment in 1992.

Basis for Assessment

Used results of the June 1992 DNR stream use assessment to assess aquatic life uses as FST due to (1) well-above average habitat score (28 versus overall average of 22) & (2) notes on field sheet ("frequent pools (some very deep) and riffles hard to seine due to rocks"; "good habitat").
