Waterbody ID:
a High Quality: Natural, natural bank vegetation around entire waterbody; banks stable and protected by roots; water color is clear to tea-colored; no
barriers to fish movement; many fish cover types available; diverse and stable aquatic habitat; no disturbance by livestock or man.
Moderate Quality: Altered by rip-rap; natural vegetation extends 1/3-1/2 of the active channel width on each side; filtering function or bank vegetation
only moderately compromised; banks moderately unstable; water color is cloudy, submerged objects covered with greenish film; moderate odor; minor
barriers to fish movement; fair aquatic habitat; minimum disturbance by livestock or man.
Low Quality: Rip rap and channelization excessive; natural vegetation less than 1/3 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 scum,
surface sheen); heavy odor; severe barriers to fish movement; little to no aquatic habitat; severe disturbance from livestock or man.
