Water is impaired due to one or more pollutants and associated quality impacts.
Notes
This water was assessed during the 2016 listing cycle; temperature sample data clearly met 2016 WisCALM listing thresholds for the Fish and Aquatic Life use.
This water was assessed during the 2018 listing cycle; new total phosphorus sample data may exceed 2018 WisCALM listing criteria for the Fish and Aquatic Life use, however, temperature and available biological data do not indicate impairment (i.e. no macroinvertebrate or fish Index of Biotic Integrity (IBI) scored in the "poor" condition category).
Assessments during the 2020 listing cycle show total phosphorus levels too high for healthy aquatic communities like plants, fish, and bugs. Fish sample data were in excellent condition. This water was proposed for the impaired waters list in 2020.Pollutant
