American Whitewater's members are particularly interested in the portions of the proposed rule regarding Whitewater recreation opportunities (§11.220 and §11.219). While we support the proposed regulation changes, including the decision to eliminate quota provisions in §11.75(a)(3) because "they are matters of internal Department policy and do not require regulations", we have two outstanding concerns that we would like to see addressed. Specifically, we would like to work with the Bureau of State Parks to substanttvely address concerns regarding restrictions on waterfall running at Ohiopyle State Park and Whitewater launch and take-out sites across the Pennsylvania State Parks system. Waterfall running. In regard to Whitewater boating, we would like to see the proposed regulation modified to permit waterfall running in Ohiopyle State Park. Short of this, we would like the regulation changed to allow this activity with permission from the Park Superintendent. At present, draft regulation §11.2200(3) states "Waterfall running. Waterfall running is prohibited without written permission of the Department." Our preference is to see this regulation modified to state "Waterfall running. Waterfall running is permitted." If that is not acceptable, then, at a minimum, we propose changing the regulation to state, "Waterfall running.
