Assessment Comments
Stream use assessment in Allamakee County.
Basis for Assessment
Used results of DNR stream use assessment to assess B(LR) aquatic life uses as FST due to (1) well-above average habitat score (26 versus overall average of 22), (2) reference on field sheet to "lots of deep pools and rocks," (3) low fish score (7) due to difficult seining conditions, (4) DNR survey in 1989 by Olson and Howell found 11 species with only two tolerant species (N. dorsalis and S. atromaculatus).
