Waterbody Type and Description List Lake
River/Stream
Wetland
Lakes are bodies of relatively still fresh or salt water of considerable size, localized in a basin that is surrounded by land. Lakes are inland and not part of the ocean, and are larger and deeper than ponds. Identify lakes with Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) lake identification (ID). Identify lake sampling sites by adding bay and site id after lake id. (nn-nnnn-nn-nnn = ID + bay + sampling site).Rivers and streams start a high point such as a mountain, hill or other elevated area from some source like a spring, snow melt or a lake. The water flows down to lower points, generally picking up more water as it decends, creating larger rivers and streams. Streams are identified by MPCA staff assigned id (Snnn-nnn = S indicating river / stream, number assigned by MPCA staff).Undifferentiated wetlands. Wetlands are areas of land whose soil is saturated with moisture either permanently or seasonally. Identify wetlands with DNR lake ID. Identify wetland sampling sites by adding bay and site id after lake id (nn-nnnn-nn-nnn = ID + bay + sampling site).
