    Classification of Wild Trout Streams; Additions and Amendments to the List

    [42 Pa.B. 6737]
    [Saturday, October 20, 2012]

     The Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) has approved the addition of 13 new waters to its list of wild trout streams and adjusted the limits of one water as published at 42 Pa.B. 4672 (July 21, 2012) and corrected at 42 Pa.B. 5595 (August 25, 2012). Under 58 Pa. Code § 57.11 (relating to listing of wild trout streams), it is the policy of the Commission to accurately identify and classify stream sections supporting naturally reproducing populations of trout as wild trout streams. 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. The Commission's Fisheries Management Division maintains the complete list of wild trout streams, and it is available on the Commission's web site at http://www.fish.state.pa.us/trout_repro.htm.
