Water is impaired due to one or more pollutants and associated quality impacts.
Notes
The Menominee River was placed on the impaired waters list in 1998 based on contaminated sediment (arsenic and PAHs) and fish consumption advisories (PCBs and Mercury). This river is within the Menominee River Area of Concern and cleanup activities have remediated contaminated sediments. The Arsenic and PAH listings were removed during the 2020 assessment cycle. New fish tissue data evaluated during the 2024 cycle indicated elevated PFOS levels, prompting listing for PFOS in this water.Pollutant
