    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.

    PerfectPerfect forfor PeacefulPeaceful PaddlingPaddling compiled by Art Michaels LE IL H A The 31-mile Lehigh River Water Trail Southern Section begins at the I G R Lehigh Gap and ends at the confluence of the Lehigh River with the Dela- H T ware River, in Easton. The Southern Section widens and tends to provide R R more tranquil paddling than the Northern Section. Rolling hills and for- IV TE ested riparian corridors characterize the land surrounding the Southern Sec- ER WA tion, so it offers better paddling opportunities for lesser-experienced paddlers and families. The Southern Section includes many accesses and passes through Southern the urban areas of Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton. Section Muskellunge Fishing Opportunities The Southern Section abounds with fishing opportunities. Trout are stocked in the water trail’s Northern Section from around Jim Thorpe to Bowmanstown, so the Southern Section’s best trout fishing occurs near and above the Lehigh Gap. The entire Southern Section is stocked with fingerling walleyes and muskies. The best walleye and musky action on the Lehigh encompasses nearly the entire South- ern Section, to Allentown’s Hamilton Street area. Smallmouth bass are also avail- able in the Southern Section, and action for smallmouths is best throughout the entire Southern Section. In spring, American shad are also present, mainly near Easton through Allentown’s Hamilton Street area, but consider the Lehigh River’s special regulations for shad in the Summary of Fishing Regulations and Laws. An- glers will also find channel catfish in the Southern Section. Throughout the Southern Section, regulations for Commonwealth inland waters apply.

  • Lehigh River
    Section 319 NONPOINT SOURCE PROGRAM SUCCESS STORY Reclaiming PennsylvaniaAbandoned Mine Lands Improves the Lehigh River Metals and acidity in runoff from abandoned surface mines Waterbody Improved and discharges from abandoned deep mines impaired Pennsylvania’s Lehigh River and some of its tributaries, prompting the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) to add 25.1 miles of watershed streams to the state’s Clean Water Act (CWA) section 303(d) list of impaired waters in 2002. Project partners reclaimed and treated 297.9 acres of abandoned mine lands to address pollutant loadings. Water quality improved downstream of the reclamation sites, allowing PADEP to remove a 14.7-mile-long segment of the Lehigh River from the list of impaired waters in 2012. Problem The headwaters of the Lehigh River flow from the Lehigh Marshes just north of Gouldsboro, Pennsylvania. The river then meanders 103 miles Lehigh River through eastern Pennsylvania, draining an area of Watershed approximately 1,363 square miles before flowing into the Delaware River near Easton, Pennsylvania (Figure 1). The Lehigh River is the second largest PA tributary to the Delaware River—its watershed comprises 11 percent of the Delaware River drainage basin. The upper and middle portions of the Lehigh River watershed, including portions of Carbon, Luzerne, Monroe, Schuylkill, Lackawanna, and Wayne counties, support high-quality trout fisheries. A 32-mile stretch of the Lehigh River (from the Francis E. Walter Dam to the borough of Jim Figure 1. The Lehigh River watershed (red) is in a portion of Thorpe) is designated as a Pennsylvania Scenic eastern Pennsylvania underlain by coal fields.

  • Pennsylvania Highlands Region Canoeing Stream Inventory
    Pennsylvania Highlands Region Canoeing Stream Inventory PRELIMINARY November 8, 2006 This document is a list of all streams in the Pennsylvania Highlands region, annotated to indicate canoeable streams and stream charac- teristics. Streams in bold type are paddleable. The others, while pos- sible paddleable, are not generally used for canoeing. Note that some of these streams become canoeable only after heavy rain or snow melt. Others have longer seasons. Some, like the Dela- ware, Schuylkill and Lehigh Rivers, are always paddeable, except when fl ooding or frozen. This inventory uses the standardized river rating system of American Whitewater. It is not intended as paddlers guide. Other sources of information, including information on river levels.
