  • Class a Wild Trout Streams
    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.

  • Watershed 11A, Little Juniata River
    08/22/01 DEP Bureau of Watershed Management Watershed Restoration Action Strategy (WRAS) State Water Plan Subbasin 11A Little Juniata River and Frankstown Branch Watersheds Blair, Huntingdon, Bedford, Cambria, and Centre Counties Introduction The 738-square mile Subbasin 11A consists of two major parts, the 395-square mile Frankstown Branch of the Juniata River watershed and its major tributaries Beaverdam Branch, Blair Gap Run, Canoe Creek, Piney Creek, and Clover Creek, and the 343-square mile Little Juniata River watershed and its major tributaries, Bald Eagle Creek, Sinking Creek, and Spruce Creek. A total of 1,051 streams flow for 1,314 miles through the subbasin. The subbasin is included in HUC Area 2050302, Upper Juniata River, a Category I, FY99/2000 Priority watershed under the Unified Watershed Assessment developed by the Department in 1998. The Frankstown Branch and the Little Juniata River join to form the man stem Juniata River at the eastern edge of the subbasin. Geology/Topography The topography and geology of the subbasin is varied, as is typical of the Ridge and Valley Ecoregion, which comprises most of the subbasin. This area consists of a series of narrow northeast-southwest trending ridges and steep, narrow valleys formed during the uplift of the Appalachian Mountain chain. Most of the mountains are folded into tight loops and form dead- end valleys. The numerous folds in the mountains result in repetition of rock types throughout the basin, with sandstone-quartzite on the ridges and limestone and shale in the valleys. The steeply sloping topography can lead to increased runoff during storm events and discourage infiltration to the groundwater.

APPENDIX Bedford CAP Organizational Chart Projects and Initiatives Highlights Catchment Management Database 2 BEDFORD COUNTYWIDE ACTION PLAN Working together to protect the future of Bedford County’s natural resources. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Plan Purpose The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) developed the third phase of their Chesapeake Bay Watershed Implementation Plan (Ph. III WIP) in 2018. The plan requires implementation of local water quality improvements by 2025 to meet statewide pollution reduction goals. PADEP’s Ph. III WIP is based on a collaborative and bottom-up clean water planning approach between the state and each county in the Chesapeake Bay drainage area. This approach gives each county flexibility to create a plan that meets local needs and is unique to the jurisdiction. Plan Highlights The Bedford Countywide Action Plan (Bedford CAP) is a summary of approaches, initiatives, and considerations for existing and proposed water quality improvements in the county. The initiatives are intended to protect the future of Bedford County’s natural resources while preserving other community goals and focus areas.

  • Bedford County Clean Water Technical Toolbox
    BEDFORD COUNTY CLEAN WATER TECHNICAL TOOLBOX Developing a County-Based Action Plan for Clean Water November 2019 BEDFORD COUNTY TECHNICAL TOOLBOX Pennsylvania Phase 3 Watershed Implementation Plan (WIP) The Local Planning Process to Meet Countywide Goals Introduction Welcome to your Clean Water Technical Toolbox. This document has been prepared to help you improve local water quality. This collaborative effort is being made throughout Pennsylvania’s portion of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. Each Pennsylvania county within the watershed will have a Technical Toolbox with similar components tailored to that county’s specific conditions. What is the Technical Toolbox? This toolbox has been developed as a starting point for each county to use to improve local water quality. It contains useful and specific data and information relevant to your county to assist you with reaching local water quality goals. No county is required to use every tool in this toolbox! You are encouraged to add other tools as fits your local situation. This toolbox serves as a guide to assist with collaborative efforts, not as a regulatory tool. Pennsylvania’s State Workgroups have developed a series of recommendations that can apply across the watershed. These are recommendations, and you will find that as a county you might want to adjust the recommendations based on your county’s needs. The sector recommendations found in the appendix are to be used as a starting point for your county. - 1 - The Local Story: Opportunities to Improve Local Water Quality and Meet Countywide

  • Bedford County Natural Heritage Inventory, 1998
    BEDFORD COUNTY NATURAL HERITAGE INVENTORY Prepared for: The Bedford County Planning Commission Russell Building, 203 S. Juliana Street Bedford, PA 15522 Prepared by: Western Pennsylvania Conservancy 209 Fourth Avenue Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15222 September 1998 This project was funded by the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Bureau of Recreation and Conservation, by the Southwestern Pennsylvania Heritage Preservation Commission under the Grant Agreement #GA-4174-6-0024 and by the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy. Cover illustration: Topographic Settings map of Bedford County – hilltop upper slope lower slope valley bottom . Source: Bedford County Planning Commission. Printed on recycled paper PREFACE The Bedford County Natural Heritage Inventory identifies and maps Bedford County’s most significant natural places. The study investigated plant and animal species and natural communities that are unique or uncommon in the county; it also explored areas important for general wildlife habitat and scientific study. The inventory does not confer protection to any of the areas listed in the report. It is, however, a tool for informed and responsible decision-making. Public and private organizations may use the inventory to guide land acquisition and conservation decisions. Local municipalities and the County may use it to help with comprehensive planning, zoning and the review of development proposals. Developers, utility companies and government agencies alike may benefit from access to this environmental information prior to the creation of detailed development plans. Although the inventory was conducted using a tested and proven methodology, it is best viewed as a preliminary report rather than the final word on the subject of Bedford County’s natural heritage.
