The record
Designated-use assessments
Fully Supporting and Not Supporting are the state's definitive verdicts; other entries mean the use was not conclusively assessed in this cycle.

| Wildlife Habitat | Other | Insufficient Information |
The record
Listed impairment causes
The state reported this reservoir in its 2021 Integrated Report cycle but reached no assessment determination, so no causes are listed. The unit is recorded under EPA integrated-reporting Category 3: reviewed, with insufficient information to determine whether it meets water-quality standards. An undetermined waterbody is neither confirmed clean nor confirmed impaired.
Reading the record
What Kent Lake (Marin County)'s record holds
Scale and rank
Kent Lake (Marin County) is one of 607 lake-type waterbodies reported to EPA from California. It is not among the 195 whose reported record carries enough populated assessment or gauge data for this site to list and index it. At 39 assessed acres it ranks 19,931st by assessed size among the 38,628 lakes the dataset carries an area for, counting a state’s repeated filings of one water once, behind 19,930 lakes with a larger one.
What this record holds
California filed this reservoir in its 2021 Integrated Report cycle but reached no determination, so the record holds that filing and its use rows, but no verdict, and with nothing judged, no impairment cause to track over time. The state has not yet filed a definitive fish-consumption verdict, a definitive recreation verdict, a definitive aquatic-life verdict, and 1 other for this record; those fields populate when it reports them in a future Integrated Report cycle.

What to do with this record
- Assessment verdicts are cycle-based, not real-time. For fish-consumption decisions, your state advisory program is the binding source. Consumption status guide
- Impairment listings follow the Clean Water Act 303(d) process; a listing is a regulatory finding, not a closure notice. 303(d) explained

Overall status, use verdicts, and causes are the state's reported decisions for assessment unit CAL2011302020210901030456. Counts and percentiles are computed across all lake-type records PlainLakes ingests from ATTAINS.
