Livingston Parish County Lake Quality
Louisiana, 25 lakes, average grade C (Fair)
Livingston Parish County's 25 graded lakes fall in the moderate-density bracket for Louisiana. The county-level average smooths over real differences — a single agricultural watershed near the southwest corner can pull the average down even if the rest of the county runs clean. The county average is C — the middle of the rubric, with one or two lakes pulling the average up or down depending on year.
The county's lakes lean shallow, which makes the grades sensitive to wind, sediment-resuspension, and any nutrient inputs from the watershed. The cleanest lake on the books is Lake Maurepas East-Northeast of Maurepas (C); the most-stressed is Lake Maurepas Southeast of Maurepas (D).

NR = not rated: the monitoring record does not meet the evidence bar for a grade. That is EPA Integrated Reporting Category 3 (insufficient information), not a failing grade. How grading works.
