   On June 21, 2005, the Environmental Quality Board (Board) accepted a rulemaking petition for study under 25 Pa. Code Chapter 23 (relating to Environmental Quality Board policy for processing petitions--statement of policy). The petition, submitted by Barbara L. Smith on behalf of the Tobyhanna Creek/Tunkhannock Creek Watershed Association, requests the Board redesignate the stream segment that appears in 25 Pa. Code § 93.9d (relating to drainage list D) as Tunkhannock Creek in Monroe County from its present designation of High Quality--Cold Water Fishes to Exceptional Value water.

   Under 25 Pa. Code § 93.4d(a) (relating to processing petitions, evaluations and assessments to change a designated use), the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is required to publish a notice of intent to assess candidate waters before performing survey work. The Department's assessment notice for the West Branch and Main Stem of the Delaware River will appear in a future issue of the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   The petition is available to the public by contacting the Environmental Quality Board, P. O. Box 8477, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8477, (717) 787-4526. The petition is accessible on the Department's website: www.dep.state.pa.us (DEP Keyword: EQB (June 21, 2005 meeting)).
