FISH AND BOAT COMMISSION

Classification of Wilderness Trout Streams; Proposed Additions; April 2023

[53 Pa.B. 1491]
[Saturday, March 11, 2023]

 Under 58 Pa. Code § 57.4 (relating to wilderness trout streams), it is the policy of the Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) to maintain the wilderness trout streams program where stream remoteness and populations of naturally reproducing trout combine to offer sport fishing opportunity for the recreation of anglers in a wilderness setting away from roads or vehicular access. The Executive Director, with the approval of the Commission, will from time-to-time publish the list of wilderness trout streams in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. It is the Commission's intent to advocate proper watershed management to maintain the wilderness setting and to advance and seek the highest water quality standards through the Department of Environmental Protection.

 At the next Commission meeting on April 24 and 25, 2023, the Commission will consider changes to its list of wilderness trout streams. Specifically, the Commission will consider the addition of the following streams or portions of streams to the list:
