Waterbodies Needing Help
Because of pollution, some waterbodies in our great state are not able to meet their beneficial use. They are known as impaired waters. This means that the water may not be able to be used for drinking, recreating, and irrigating.
Sometimes it even means that aquatic life, like fish, may not be able to live in these waterbodies.
