    Ohio Water Quality Standards Administrative Code Chapter 3745-1 Water Body Use Designation INDEX Sorted alphabetically by water body name Most Recent Revision: December 22, 2015 (Covers rules effective November 30, 2015) Ohio Environmental Protection Agency Division of Surface Water Lazarus Government Center 50 West Town Street, Suite 700 P.O. Box 1049 Columbus, Ohio 43216-1049 FORWARD What is the purpose of this index? This document contains an alphabetical listing of the water bodies designated in rules 08 to 32 of Chapter 3745-1 of the Administrative Code (Ohio Water Quality Standards). Rules 08 to 30 designate beneficial uses for water bodies in the 23 major drainage basins in Ohio. Rule 31 designates beneficial uses for Lake Erie. Rule 32 designates beneficial uses for the Ohio River. This document is updated whenever those rules are changed. Use this index to find the location of a water body within rules 08 to 32. For each water body in this index, the water body into which it flows is listed along with the rule number and page number within that rule where you can find its designated uses. How can I use this index to find the use designations for a water body? For example, if you want to find the beneficial use designations for Allen Run, find Allen Run on page 1 of this index. You will see that there are three Allen Runs listed in rules 08 to 32. If the Allen Run you are looking for is a tributary of Little Olive Green Creek, go to page 6 of rule 24 to find its designated uses.

  • Notice Classification of Wild Trout Streams Proposed Additions, Revisions, and Removals September 2017
    Notice Classification of Wild Trout Streams Proposed Additions, Revisions, and Removals September 2017 Under 58 Pa. Code §57.11 (relating to listing of wild trout streams), it is the policy of the Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) to accurately identify and classify stream sections supporting naturally reproducing populations of trout as wild trout streams. The Commission’s Fisheries Management Division maintains the list of wild trout streams. The Executive Director, with the approval of the Commission, will from time-to-time publish the list of wild trout streams in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The listing of a stream section as a wild trout stream is a biological designation that does not determine how it is managed. The Commission relies upon many factors in determining the appropriate management of streams. At the next Commission meeting on September 25 and 26, 2017, the Commission will consider changes to its list of wild trout streams. Specifically, the Commission will consider the addition of the following streams or portions of streams to the list: County of Mouth Stream Name Section Limits Tributary To Mouth Lat/Lon Rainsburg Gap 39.861368 Bedford Headwaters to Mouth Sweet Root Creek Run 78.491194 UNT to Chop Run 41.520047 Cameron Headwaters to Mouth Chop Run (RM 0.18) 78.320498 40.903740 Centre Dewitt Run Headwaters to Mouth Bald Eagle Creek 77.874069 40.942177 Centre Moose Run Headwaters to Mouth Bald Eagle Creek 77.792053 UNT to Black 41.005421 Centre Gap Run (RM Headwaters to Mouth Black Gap Run 77.211990 0.49) UNT to

  • PREVIOUS PLANNING EFFORTS BRIEF Page | 1 Bucknell River
    PREVIOUS PLANNING EFFORTS BRIEF Bucknell River Access Report This report was completed by five students of Bucknell University as part of a Geography course / Community Service project in the Spring of 2013 and was presented to the Borough and the Lewisburg Neighborhoods Corporation (LNC). The Bucknell River access report recommends the following actions to improve community connections and access to the Susquehanna River: ‐ Connect Riverwoods to the greater Lewisburg community with a trail or connecting sidewalks along River Road Including pedestrian access across the St. Anthony St. Bridge. ‐ The report lists Soldier’s Park as a location to establish a formalized landing and launch for the river. Safety improvements to the St. George Street launch are also recommended. ‐ The report further identifies the untapped potential of the RiverWalk and several small parks along the riverbank as important locations to view and enjoy the River. Connections to these areas and other local trails is recommended. These recommendations have not been implemented. Bull Run Neighborhood Plan (BRNP) The BRNP recommendation for a greenway on page 33 has improvements for pedestrian circulation, habitat corridor, and utilizing the north‐south rail corridor for a rail‐with‐trail passage. The plan calls for a connection to the Buffalo Valley Rail Trail (BVRT) (pg. 40). The Borough of Lewisburg has secured funding for creating a master plan of the open space in the neighborhood. BVRT – Final Section Feasibility Study This report was prepared by the Buffalo Valley Recreation Authority (BVRA) with assistance from its consultant and Bucknell University.
