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. -

2020-45 Long Range Transportation Plan
2020-45 LONG RANGE TRANSPORTATION PLAN ADOPTED JUNE 23, 2020 This page intentionally left blank 2 Northwest Pennsylvania Commission 2020-45 Long Range Transportation Plan Prepared for: Northwest Commission 395 Seneca Street P.O. Box 1127 Oil City, PA 16301 (814) 677-4800 http://northwestpa.org/transportation/ By: Michael Baker International 4431 N. Front Street Harrisburg, PA 17110 (717) 213-2900 June 23, 2020 Our Regional Geographic Position The Northwest PA region includes a 5-county area located in the northwestern corner of Pennsylvania. It is one of the state’s smallest transportation planning regions by population, yet consists of nearly 3,600 square miles of land area (or an area roughly half the size of New Jersey). The region’s location just off the shores of Lake Erie also makes it an area with one of the harshest environments in the state. The region is situated within the winter snowbelt, and annually receives upwards of 100 inches of snowfall, along with 40-48 inches of rain. PennDOT typically spends anywhere from 100 to 150 days a year de-icing the region’s roadways. Geologically, the region is located within the broader Appalachian Plateau region, with deposits of glacial till that can run more than 200 feet deep. This environmental phenomenon can substantially drive up the costs of bridge maintenance and construction, just as much as the region’s freeze and thaw cycles can adversely affect roadway conditions. The region in general is very rural, with a population density of only 64 persons per square mile. In addition, significant portions of the region are quite remote and inaccessible, with limited access to the national Interstate system.
