It seems to me that these things are not always bad for a trout stream. I understand AMD is inherently bad as is discharge of really hot water.
For example; maybe some really cold water that is effected by AMD is discharged into a stream. Seems to me maybe this might help- where otherwise the water would be too warm for trout throughout the summer.
On the flip side; where you have really cold stream where there is briney discharge into a stream and while looking and smelling a bit unsightly may actually add some nutrients.
Also, some streams that have a warm water discharge may make for some decent winter fishing- assuming again that it is cold enough in the summer to handle the heated discharge.
Blanket statements do not seem to cover this or do they?
