    CLASS A WILD TROUT STREAMS STATEWIDE WATER QUALITY STANDARDS REVIEW STREAM REDESIGNATION EVALUATION Drainage Lists: A, C, D, E, F, H, I, K, L, N, O, P, Q, T WATER QUALITY MONITORING SECTION (MAB) DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY STANDARDS BUREAU OF POINT AND NON-POINT SOURCE MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION December 2014 INTRODUCTION The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is required by regulation, 25 Pa. Code section 93.4b(a)(2)(ii), to consider streams for High Quality (HQ) designation when the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) submits information that a stream is a Class A Wild Trout stream based on wild trout biomass. The PFBC surveys for trout biomass using their established protocols (Weber, Green, Miko) and compares the results to the Class A Wild Trout Stream criteria listed in Table 1. The PFBC applies the Class A classification following public notice, review of comments, and approval by their Commissioners. The PFBC then submits the reports to the Department where staff conducts an independent review of the trout biomass data in the fisheries management reports for each stream. All fisheries management reports that support PFBCs final determinations included in this package were reviewed and the streams were found to qualify as HQ streams under 93.4b(a)(2)(ii). There are 50 entries representing 207 stream miles included in the recommendations table. The Department generally followed the PFBC requested stream reach delineations. Adjustments to reaches were made in some instances based on land use, confluence of tributaries, or considerations based on electronic mapping limitations. PUBLIC RESPONSE AND PARTICIPATION SUMMARY The procedure by which the PFBC designates stream segments as Class A requires a public notice process where proposed Class A sections are published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin first as proposed and secondly as final, after a review of comments received during the public comment period and approval by the PFBC Commissioners.

  • Report Abstract
    SL-145-1 REPORT ABSTRACT GENERAL INFORMATION Location and Geographics (p. 2) The Babb Creek Watershed is located in North Central Pennsylvania, occupying the southern portion of Tioga County and a small portion of northern Lycoming County. The area within the watershed is approximately 129 square miles, 65% of which is forested. The remaining 35% is agriculture and rural residential. The primary traffic arteries are Pa. T.R. 287 and U.S. Rt. 15. Topography and Drainage (pp. 3-4) The study area is in the upland plateau section of the Appalachian Physiographic Province. Elevation extremes are from a low of 860 feet above sea level at the confluence of Babb Creek and Pine Creek to more than 2200 feet along the sandstone ridges. Drainage forms a dendrite pattern commonly associated with plateau regions. Drainage into Babb Creek is received from three major tributaries--Lick Creek, Wilson Creek and Stony Fork Creek. Geology and Mining (pp. 5-12) Coal bearing strata in the project area are referable primarily to the Allegheny Group of Pennsylvania age. The coals are found in the Blossburg Syncline which traverses the study area northeastward from Pine Creek to Arnot. Six coals are present, four of which were mined. The major coal horizon is the Bloss vein which is tentatively correlated with Lower Kittanning of standard Pennsylvania Bituminous Coals. History of Deep Mining Activities (pp. 13-15) Coal was discovered at Blossburg in 1792, with the first drift opening" around 1815. The first mines in the Babb Creek Watershed were probably opened in Arnot around 1865.
