Why Echo Mid Res Lake has no grade
Echo Mid Res Lake has monitoring on record from one station, but only water clarity was measured. LakeQuality’s A–F letter uses total phosphorus, total nitrogen, chlorophyll-a, and turbidity against EPA National Lakes Assessment condition classes. With none of those grading measurements on record, Echo Mid Res Lake is Not Rated — not an F. Its 10.4-foot median from 20 readings collected 2012–2016 is still shown as clarity, but clarity alone cannot earn a letter.
Not Rated is EPA Integrated Reporting Category 3 — insufficient information. Everything below that has been measured is still reported on this page.
Sampling is run by Utah DWQ and volunteer programs, and published through the EPA Water Quality Portal. Read the full grading methodology.
