FISH AND BOAT COMMISSION Additional Restrictions on Commission Property; Oxbow Lake, Wyoming County [27 Pa.B. 4514] The Executive Director of the Fish and Boat Commission (Commission), acting under the authority of 58 Pa. Code § 53.18 (relating to additional restrictions) is banning the use or possession of beer and alcoholic beverages on Commission owned and controlled property at Oxbow Lake, Wyoming County.
The Commission recently completed construction of an access road, parking lot and fishing facilities for persons with disabilities at Oxbow Lake. The Lake itself is open to public fishing; it is owned by the Catholic Diocese of Scranton, which prohibits the use or possession of alcohol on its property. The Commission property was acquired from the Church for development to provide additional fishing opportunities for persons with disabilities and other anglers. Banning the use or possession of beer and alcoholic beverages on the Commission property is appropriate for the protection and management of this property.
Accordingly, effective immediately and until further notice, the use or possession of beer and alcoholic beverages is prohibited on all Commission owned or controlled property at Oxbow Lake, Wyoming County.
