The additions will create a total of 6,349 impairments on 2,798 bodies of water all-time, but the list did remove 27 listings for improved water quality. Leya Charles, MPCA impaired waters coordinator, said the 2024 proposed list is an 82% decrease in water body listings and a 52% decrease in impairments compared to the 2022 proposed list.
