Monongahela National Forest
Monongahela National Forest Administrative Correction 15 August 12, 2010 Changes to Management Prescription 8.2 Areas Due to New Information Under the 2000 Planning Rule (36 CFR 219.31), the following administrative corrections and additions may be made at any time, are not plan amendments or revisions, and do not require public notice or the preparation of an environmental document under Forest Service NEPA procedures: (1) Corrections and updates of data and maps; (2) Updates to activity lists and schedules as required by § 219.30(d)(1)-(6); (3) Corrections of typographical errors or other non-substantive changes; and (4) Changes in monitoring methods other than those required in a monitoring strategy. The following corrections are a result of new information from the USDI National Park Service about National Natural Landmarks (NNLs) on the Monongahela National Forest (MNF). During a recent visit to inspect NNLs on the MNF, Carolyn Davis of the NPS compared her list of NNLs on the Forest to the Forest Ecologist’s list, and two discrepancies were found. First, the Falls of Hills Creek area was not on the NPS list as an NNL. Second, the Germany Valley Karst Area was on the NPS list but not on the MNF list of NNLs. Therefore, the following administrative corrections are being made to NNLs, which are identified as Management Prescription 8.2 in the MNF Forest Plan. All acreage figures have been rounded off to the nearest 10 acres. CORRECTIONS Forest Plan Chapter III, page III-40 (originally page III-46) MP 8.0 Special Area Table, seventh -

Backpacking: Bird Knob
1 © 1999 Troy R. Hayes. All rights reserved. Preface As a new Scoutmaster, I wanted to take my troop on different kinds of adventure. But each trip took a tremendous amount of preparation to discover what the possibilities were, to investigate them, to pick one, and finally make the detailed arrangements. In some cases I even made a reconnaissance trip in advance in order to make sure the trip worked. The Pathfinder is an attempt to make this process easier. A vigorous outdoor program is a key element in Boy Scouting. The trips described in these pages range from those achievable by eleven year olds to those intended for fourteen and up (high adventure). And remember what the Irish say: The weather determines not whether you go, but what clothing you should wear. My Scouts have camped in ice, snow, rain, and heat. The most memorable trips were the ones with "bad" weather. That's when character building best occurs.

Fishing Regulations JANUARY - DECEMBER 2004
WEST VIRGINIA Fishing Regulations JANUARY - DECEMBER 2004 West Virginia Division of Natural Resources D I Investment in a Legacy --------------------------- S West Virginia’s anglers enjoy a rich sportfishing legacy and conservation ethic that is maintained T through their commitment to our state’s fishery resources. Recognizing this commitment, the R Division of Natural Resources endeavors to provide a variety of quality fishing opportunities to meet I increasing demands, while also conserving and protecting the state’s valuable aquatic resources. One way that DNR fulfills this part of its mission is through its fish hatchery programs. Many anglers are C aware of the successful trout stocking program and the seven coldwater hatcheries that support this T important fishery in West Virginia. The warmwater hatchery program, although a little less well known, is still very significant to West Virginia anglers. O West Virginia’s warmwater hatchery program has been instrumental in providing fishing opportunities F to anglers for more than 60 years. For most of that time, the Palestine State Fish Hatchery was the state’s primary facility dedicated to the production of warmwater fish. Millions of walleye, muskellunge, channel catfish, hybrid striped bass, saugeye, tiger musky, and largemouth F and smallmouth bass have been raised over the years at Palestine and stocked into streams, rivers, and lakes across the state. I A recent addition to the DNR’s warmwater hatchery program is the Apple Grove State Fish Hatchery in Mason County. Construction of the C hatchery was completed in 2003. It was a joint project of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the DNR as part of a mitigation agreement E for the modernization of the Robert C. -
