Abstract
In 2006, the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources began a study to monitor the status of South Carolina’s streams. Freshwater fisheries personnel sample between 150 and 200 streams each year throughout the state. Regional fisheries crews sample reference streams - those selected to represent the highest quality watersheds in each river basin and region of the state. Biologists can determine factors causing species to decline and make management recommendations to ensure that native species are protected for future generations.
