FISH AND BOAT COMMISSION

Designation of Wilderness Trout Streams

[33 Pa.B. 1298]

   The Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) has added 9.38 miles of streams in the Fishing Creek Watershed, Lebanon and Schuylkill Counties, to its Wilderness Trout Streams Program. 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 stream 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 limits of the four streams that have been designated Wilderness Trout Streams are as follows:

   (1)  Fishing Creek--from the confluence of Fishing Creek, West Branch and Baird Run downstream to the mouth at Lebanon Reservoir (2.05 miles).

   (2)  Baird Run--from the headwaters downstream to the confluence with Fishing Creek, West Branch (1.37 miles).

   (3)  Fishing Creek, Evening Branch--from the headwaters downstream to the mouth at Lebanon Reservoir (3.6 miles).

   (4)  Fishing Creek, West Branch--from the headwaters downstream to the confluence with Baird Run (2.36 miles).
