Abstract
In the tenth year since establishment, The Emiquon Preserve maintains a growing and healthy assemblage of aquatic vegetation and fish, with little indication that non-native species are becoming dominant or degrading environmental conditions in the immediate future. Of 19 relevant KEAs measured in 2016, 14 were indicators were measured in 2016 and 5 were not. Of the 14 KEA indicator’s measured, 9 met the project goals, 5 did not and an additional 5 were not measured and cannot be assessed.
