    2011 Classification of Wild Trout Streams Additions, Adjustments and Removals

    [41 Pa.B. 3063]
    [Saturday, June 11, 2011]

     The Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) has approved the addition of 99 new waters, adjustments in the limits of 8 waters and the removal of 16 waters from its list of wild trout streams as published at 41 Pa.B. 1294 (March 5, 2011) and 41 Pa.B. 1412 (March 12, 2011).

     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 man-agement of streams. The Commission's Fisheries Management Division maintains the complete list of wild trout streams. It is available on the Commission's web site at http://www.fish.state.pa.us/trout_repro.htm.
