Low Quality: Channel is actively down cutting or widening; rip rap and channelization excessive; natural vegetation less than 113 of the active channel width on each side; lack of regeneration; filtering function severely compromised; banks .unstable (eroding); water color is muddy and turbid; obvious pollutants (algal mats, surface sC! nn, surface sheen); heavy odor; severe barriers to fish snoveinent; little to no aquatic habitat; severe disturbance from livestock or man.

Channel sinuosity: Straight _Occasional bends _Frequent meander _Very sinuous Braided channel Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the highest quality. u� r� Total Score (from reverse):, Comm Evaluator's Signature Dates This channel evaluation fo m is' intendedJo be used only as a guide to assist landowners and environmental professionals in gathering the data required by the United States Army Corps of Engineers to make a preliminary assessment of stream quality.
