Scrubgrass Creek Watershed River Conservation Plan [31 Pa.B. 6551] The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR), Bureau of Recreation and Conservation has approved the Scrubgrass Creek Watershed River Conservation Plan (Plan) and is placing the Scrubgrass Creek, the watershed and all tributaries covered in the Plan, in Venango and Butler Counties, on the Pennsylvania Rivers Conservation Registry (Registry).
The Penn Soil Conservancy Charitable Trust submitted the Plan and other required information to gain Registry status.
After review of the Plan and other information, the DCNR has determined that the Keystone Rivers Conservation Program requirements have been satisfied and places the following on the Registry:
1. The watershed area of Scrubgrass Creek Watershed from its headwaters in Butler County to its confluence with the Allegheny River in Venango County--39.7 square miles.
2. All tributary streams within the Scrubgrass Creek Watershed.
This action becomes effective, December 1, 2001. Projects identified in the Plan become eligible for additional planning, development or acquisition grant funding through the Keystone Rivers Conservation Program.
