Physical Habitat & Bioassessment monitoring began in 2006 within the Dove Creek watershed, and conducted annually during the month of April or May depending on flows. Physical Habitat assessments are conducted within a 10 x 150 meter reach of the stream.  Benthic macro-invertebrates are collected at three sites within the reach, and water samples/ stream measurements are taken at the mid-point of the reach following protocols in the Tribe's 2007 Quality Assurance Project Plan.(7.4 Mb PDF file)
