  • Notice Classification of Wild Trout Streams Proposed Additions, Revisions and Removals January 2016
    Notice Classification of Wild Trout Streams Proposed Additions, Revisions and Removals January 2016 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 January 20 and 21, 2016, 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 Mouth Stream Name Section Limits Tributary To Lat/Lon 41.033300 Armstrong Birch Run Headwaters to Mouth Allegheny River 79.619414 40.987652 Armstrong Cove Run Headwaters to Mouth Sugar Creek 79.634421 40.287894 Berks Seidel Creek Headwaters to Mouth Schuylkill River 75.863838 UNT to Ironstone 40.295008 Berks Creek (Ironstone Headwaters to Mouth Ironstone Creek 75.676538 Park) 40.548381 Cambria Hill Creek Headwaters to Mouth Elk Creek 78.839844 40.536422 Cambria Little
