does it have a documented water resource problem and/or threat related to nonpoint source pollution?
Examples of water resource problems due to increases in nutrient and sediment loading include: fish kills, poor water quality, toxic algae, beach closings, endangered resources or lake of species diversity in benthic organisms, phytoplankton, zooplankton, and aquatic plants. Examples of NPS-related threats include habitat threatened by low dissolved oxygen levels or an increase in nutrient and/or sediment loadings. If the answer is YES, document the problem and/or threat. Continue to the next question. Does the lake have the potential for positive response to NPS control measures and/or will the water quality be protected by implementation of NPS control measures? The potential for response and/or protection implies that the NPS controls will prevent further degradation of the water quality, therefore protecting and maintaining the resource value of the lake. The lake will not age as rapidly once the NPS control is in place, but at the same time this lake will not become a Class 1A or
