  • A Decade of Progress for the West Branch Susquehanna Restoration
    WestA DECADE OF PROGRESS Branch FOR THE Susquehanna Restoration Initiative 2004–2014 A. WOLFE 1 Foreword PA Fish and Boat Commission Executive Director, John Arway In 2012, Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) staff surveyed the upper reaches of the West Branch Susquehanna River in Cambria County and discovered a naturally reproducing wild trout population. The abandoned mine drainage (AMD) remediation efforts, including the Lancashire 15 treatment plant, have improved water quality to PA FISH AND BOAT COMMISSION FISH AND BOAT PA the point where there are now wild trout in the West Branch! With the recently funded Twomile Run project in the lower Kettle Creek watershed and proposed remediation at the abandoned Fran Contracting site in the Cooks Run watershed, there is a great potential to recover significant miles of naturally reproducing brook trout streams in the near future. Another major recent accomplishment is the AMD remediation work that improved water quality in more than forty miles of the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek. The partnership between government, industry and the public working together on reclamation activities and AMD treatment has allowed PFBC cooperative nurseries to stock a portion of the Bennett Branch in 2013, and the PFBC will be adding a preseason stocking to a 4.5 mile reach in the Medix Run/Benezette area for 2014. Additionally, a 2.8 mile section of the West Branch near Curwensville will receive a preseason trout stocking for the first time in 2014. A. WOLFE These are some exciting times in the West Branch Susquehanna watershed and we look forward to more improvements in the coming years.

  • West Branch Susquehanna River Watershed
    West Branch Susquehanna River Watershed State of the Watershed Report Completed by the West Branch Susquehanna River Task Force February 11, 2005 A Message From: Dr. Douglas J. Austen, Executive Director, Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission Michael DiBerardinis, Secretary, PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Kathleen A. McGinty, Secretary, PA Department of Environmental Protection Pennsylvania is renowned for its natural beauty, environmental resources and bounty of outdoor recreational opportunities that draw so many people to experience all that makes Penn’s Woods so grand. Northcentral Pennsylvania was once a major supplier of timber, coal and other raw goods that helped fuel an emerging nation. The resulting pollution problems in the watershed were a legacy our forefathers did not anticipate, but today the area is poised to again capitalize on its natural resources. Governor Edward G. Rendell launched the West Branch Susquehanna River Watershed Initiative to protect a 12-county area that boasts more than 2 million acres of public land and offers unlimited recreational and economic opportunities for Commonwealth residents and visitors. The initiative is designed to restore water quality, enhance recreational opportunities, ensure clean drinking water for residents, revitalize degraded habitat and preserve some of the most pristine open space in the state. The first assignment of the West Branch Susquehanna River Task Force was to prepare this “State of the Watershed Report” to identify problems facing the region, and the main stem and tributaries of the West Branch Susquehanna River. The report addresses current water quality concerns, particularly from abandoned mine lands in the watershed, and also presents an inventory of completed and proposed restoration-related projects by member agencies and watershed groups.
