Does the wetland unit have the epaortunity to improve water quality? <br />Answer YES if you know or believe there are pollutants in groundwater or surface water <br />(seep. 44) <br />coming into the wetland that would otherwise reduce water quality in steams, lakes or <br />groundwater downgradient from the wetland. Note which of the following conditions <br />provide the sources ofpollutants. A unit may have poll utants comingftom several <br />sources, but any single source would qualify as opportunity. <br />Grazing in the wetland or within 150 it <br />✓ Untreated stormtivater discharges to wetland <br />Tilled fields or orchards within 150 it of wetland <br />A stream or culvert discharges into wetland that drains developed areas, residential areas, <br />farmed fields, roads, or clear-cut logging <br />Residential, urban areas, golf courses are within 150 it of wetland <br />multiplier <br />Weland is fed by groundwater high in phosphorus or nitrogen <br />Other <br />MYES mutt Tier is 2 ENO multi Tier is 1 <br />2 <br />D <br />TOTAL -Water Quality Functions Multiply the score flom Di by D2 <br />Add score to table on .
