This s1udy evsluated various treatment options near the outlet oflhe creek <br />to tre# watler from the apJl1'Ol<.lmat.ely 17,000 acre walCl'Shed. A preferred approach for !!'eating loadings tl'om <br />Hardwood Creek before reaching Peltier Lake, the down!!1ream Chain of Lakes, and middle Rice Creek was <br />identified.
