Designation of Wilderness Trout Waters
[30 Pa.B. 1428] The Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) is considering the republication of its list of Wilderness Trout Streams. Under 58 Pa. Code § 57.4 (relating to wilderness trout streams), it is the Commission's policy to manage the wilderness trout streams program where the steam remoteness and populations of naturally reproducing trout combine to offer a sport fishing opportunity for the recreation of anglers in a wilderness setting away from roads or vehicular access. It is the Commission's intent to advocate proper watershed management to maintain the wilderness setting and to advance and seek the highest water quality standards through the Department of Environmental Protection.
The Commission intends to consider the designation of Wilderness Trout Streams at its spring meeting on April 7 and 8, 2000. Persons with comments, objections or suggestions concerning the designations are invited to submit comments in writing to Executive Director, Fish and Boat Commission, P. O. Box 67000, Harrisburg, PA 17106-7000 no later than 4 p.m on April 6, 2000. Comments submitted by facsimile will not be accepted.
Comments also may be submitted electronically at ''regulations@fish.state.pa.us.'' A subject heading of the proposal and a return name and address must be included in each transmission. In addition, all electronic comments must be contained in the text of the transmission, not in an attachment. If an acknowledgment of electronic comments is not received by the sender within 2 working days, the comments should be retransmitted to ensure receipt.
A complete list of waters that the Commission is designating as Wilderness Trout Waters is as follows:
