E. Summary of Changes
Under § 61.1 (relating to Commonwealth inland waters), the opening day of the regular season for trout begins at 8 a.m. on the first Saturday after April 11 and continues through midnight of Labor Day. This regulation was in place for all of this Commonwealth's inland waters for many years and is a well-known, much anticipated tradition. However, on January 1, 2007, a new regulation went into effect under § 65.12 (relating to regional opening day of trout season). This regulation created a separate opening day for southeastern and southcentral counties where trout season opens at 8 a.m. on the first Saturday after March 28 and continues through midnight of Labor Day.
In late winter 2020, the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic reached this Commonwealth and on March 16, 2020, the Commonwealth eliminated most activities that were not considered essential for health and safety. Subsequently, there was substantial concern within the Commission that traditional stocking practices with large numbers of volunteers in close contact and traditional opening day crowds could lead to increased risk of virus transmission. As such, the decision was made to greatly accelerate trout stocking, eliminate the use of volunteers, deploy Commission staff from throughout the agency to perform the stockings, and announce the opening day without warning at 8 a.m. on Tuesday, April 7, 2020. This unheralded opening was designed to reduce crowding, and a single, Statewide opening day was employed to reduce cross-boundary travel between the Statewide and regional opening day zones. In addition, public travel restrictions required more anglers to fish closer to home than they would under normal circumstances.
Planning for the 2021 trout stocking season began in early fall of 2020 in anticipation that COVID-19 restrictions and concerns about virus transmission may still be in effect. At the January 2021 quarterly Commissioners meeting, a single, Statewide opening day was established for 2021.
After experiencing 2 consecutive years of a single, Statewide opening day, staff identified an opportunity to further consider the efficacy of the current Commission regulations that provide for a regional opening day of trout season. An ad hoc committee with representatives from the bureaus of Fisheries; Hatcheries; Law Enforcement; Outreach, Education and Marketing; Administration; Policy and Planning; the Field Operations Deputy Executive Director; and Office of Chief Counsel for review was formed. The committee reviewed the history and summary of opening day designations for trout season. Following that review, the committee recommended the elimination of the regional opening day of trout season and a return to the more traditional single, Statewide opener. Staff believe that a single opening day simplifies regulations, reduces confusion among the angling public, lessens landowner issues in border counties, gives Statewide anglers at least an extra week of fishing opportunity and better allows businesses to plan for any sales surge.
The elimination of a regional opening day also requires minor amendments to various sections referencing trout season. As such, staff recommend reformatting the dates in regulations relating to trout season for clarification and simplification. Finally, consistent with the act of July 10, 2020 (P.L. 604, No. 56) staff recommend that any reference in the regulations to the trout/salmon permit be changed to trout permit.
During the public comment period, the Commission discovered the need for the following modifications to be reflected in this final-form rulemaking to effect the original intent of the proposed change: (1) For ALL SPECIES OF TROUT AND SALMON (except landlocked Atlantic salmon)—''(see Chapter 65)'' is restored to the daily limit column pertaining to the extended season within the chart in § 61.1; (2) For ALL SPECIES OF TROUT AND SALMON (except landlocked Atlantic salmon)—''[and all waters downstream of stocked trout waters]'' is removed from the seasons column pertaining to the extended season within the chart in § 61.1; and (3) The following language is restored to § 65.26, item (a) General Rule—''except Class A wild trout streams where the creel limit is 0 and areas with special regulations.'' These changes do not change the intent of the proposed rulemakings previously published.
As a result of this final-form rulemaking, the Commission formally abandons the proposed amendments published at 51 Pa.B. 3140 (June 5, 2021).
The Commission therefore amends §§ 61.1, 61.2, 63.3, 63.20, 65.5, 65.6, 65.12, 65.14, 65.15, 65.19, 65.20, 65.24, 65.26, 67.2 and 69.12a to read as set forth in Annex A.
F. Paperwork
This final-form rulemaking will not increase paperwork and will not create new paperwork requirements.
G. Fiscal Impact
This final-form rulemaking will have no adverse fiscal impact on the Commonwealth or its political subdivisions.
