FISH AND BOAT COMMISSION

Proposed Special Regulation Designations and Redesignations

[43 Pa.B. 1381]
[Saturday, March 9, 2013]

 The Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) has approved guidelines with regard to encouraging public participation on possible changes to the designation of streams, stream sections or lakes for special regulation programs. Under 58 Pa. Code Chapter 65 (relating to special fishing regulations), the Commission designates certain streams, stream sections and lakes as being subject to special fishing regulations. These designations are effective after Commission approval when they are posted at the site and a notice is published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. Under the Commission's guidelines, a notice concerning the proposed designation or redesignation of a stream, stream section or lake under special regulations ordinarily will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin before the matter is reviewed by the Commissioners.

 At the next Commission meeting on April 15 and 16, 2013, the Commission will consider taking the following actions with respect to waters subject to special fishing regulations under 58 Pa. Code Chapter 65, effective on January 1, 2014:

58 Pa. Code § 65.19. Approved Trout Waters Open to Year-Round Fishing

 The Commission will consider adding the following waters to its list of Approved Trout Waters Open to Year-Round Fishing regulated and managed under 58 Pa. Code § 65.19:

Lycoming and Tioga Pine Creek from SR 414 Bridge in Blackwell (350 meters upstream of the confluence with Babb Creek) downstream to the confluence with Slate Run (upper limit of the 1.2-mile-long Delayed Harvest Artificial Lures Only reach), a distance of 11.1 miles
Lycoming Pine Creek from 150 meters upstream of the confluence with Naval Run (lower limit of the Delayed Harvest Artificial Lures Only reach) downstream to the confluence with Little Pine Creek in Waterville, a distance of 15.1 miles

 At this time, the Commission is soliciting public input concerning the previously listed designations and redesignations. Persons with comments, objections or suggestions concerning the designations and redesignations are invited to submit comments in writing to Executive Director, Fish and Boat Commission, P. O. Box 67000, Harrisburg, PA 17106-7000, within 30 days after publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. Comments submitted by facsimile will not be accepted.
