Impaired Water Notes
This water was assessed during the 2018 listing cycle; new total phosphorus sample data overwhelmingly exceed 2018 WisCALM listing criteria for the Fish and Aquatic Life use, however, no new biological data (i.e. fish Index of Biotic Integrity (IBI) already scored in previous water evaluation cycles) were available to assess further biological impairment.
