FISH AND BOAT COMMISSION
Classification of Wild Trout Streams; Proposed Additions, Adjustments and Removals; May 2014
[44 Pa.B. 1293]
[Saturday, March 1, 2014]Under 58 Pa. Code § 57.11 (relating to listing of wild trout streams), it is the policy of the Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) to accurately identify and classify stream sections supporting naturally reproducing populations of trout as wild trout streams. The Commission's Fisheries Management Division maintains the list of wild trout streams. The Executive Director, with the approval of the Commission, will from time to time publish the list of wild trout streams in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The listing of a stream section as a wild trout stream is a biological designation that does not determine how it is managed. The Commission relies upon many factors in determining the appropriate management of streams.
At the next Commission meeting on May 5 and 6, 2014, the Commission will consider changes to its list of wild trout streams. Specifically, the Commission will consider the addition of the following streams or portions of streams to the list:
County Stream Name Tributary To Section Limits Armstrong Foundry Run Mahoning Creek Lake Headwaters to mouth Carbon Nis Hollow Lehigh River Headwaters to mouth Centre Potter Run Sinking Creek SR 0144 downstream to mouth Crawford DeWolfe Run Marsh Run Headwaters to mouth Elk Sawmill Run Little Toby Creek Headwaters to mouth Jefferson East Branch Mahoning Creek Mahoning Creek Headwaters downstream to 1.0 km downstream of Branch Road (T-622) Bridge Lackawanna Hagen Run Pond Creek Headwaters to mouth Lycoming Reibsan Run Plunketts Creek Headwaters to mouth Northumberland West Branch Susquehanna River Susquehanna River Confluence of Moss Creek downstream to confluence of Peg Run Somerset North Branch South Fork
