Walt Nicholson Susquehanna Chapter of Trout Unlimited Susquehanna Chapter of Trout Unlimited The Chapter s annual picnic and fish outing was held on Wednesday September 13 at the Gram and Pap Lundy Memorial Pavilion in Warrensville. We had a great turnout and it was a perfect spot to practice casting, fish, and make new friends while sharing stories. The left photo shows the attendees at the pond edge receiving instruction while the right photo shows Dave Craig with one of the trophy fish caught that night. It was a great night and the Chapter wants to thank everyone who came out.. There were many new faces and friends. We also want to thank everyone who helped teach and instruct fly casting and to Don Daughenbach for arranging it so that we could meet in this great spot. After fishing we had a picnic and shared stories and enjoyed the company of each other. Notice of Upcoming Elections The Chapter s annual elections will be held at the November Chapter meeting. The following positions are open: President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and 2 Director positions. Please consider running for one of the positions.

3 Susquehanna Chapter of Trout Unlimited Fiscal Responsibility for Pennsylvania Anglers and Boaters The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) is a government business funded primarily by sales of fishing licenses and boat registrations. The majority of government agencies receive general fund appropriations of tax revenues to support public service programs. The PFBC generates revenues through customer sales like a for-profit business, but the PFBC must also follow the rules of government for managing operations and receive legislative approval to increase fees charged for the goods (hatchery fish) and services (public safety; aquatic resource protection and conservation) provided to meet angler and boater customer expectations. The agency's spending and earning model is really a mix of business and government principles. The agency is mindful of the responsibility of managing its angler and boater customers hard-earned dollars wisely. Until this year, the PFBC has been able to balance its budget and not spent more than it earned. This fiscal management approach has allowed it to build a rainy day fund of uncommitted reserves to prepare for and meet foreseen pension costs. The agency proudly leads the nation in how efficiently it operates. The Legislative Budget and Finance Committee found in 2014 that of the states for which we have expenditure information, Pennsylvania s PFBC has the lowest expenditures per license (emphasis added). In order to meet the escalating costs of employee pensions, health care, and general inflation faced by all Commonwealth agencies, the PFBC has cut spending in large part by reducing staff from a high of 432 to around 360. At the same time, the value of a fishing license adjusted for inflation has dropped to about $16.25, while fish production costs have climbed dramatically. The true cost of today s fishing license adjusted for inflation would be $ At $22.90, today s license value is a real bargain for PA anglers! Revenues & Expenditures Major Cost Drivers - Employee Benefits FY FY FY FY FY FY Retired Employee Health Benefits Retirement Plan Contributions Active Employee Health Benefits Additional annual personnel and operating costs of $6.2 million have caused expenditures to now exceed annual revenues. Absent a revenue increase, the PFBC will begin using an uncommitted reserve fund balance of about $60 million to cover essential health care and pension obligations and maintain operations and services, which will deplete the reserve fund within five years if revenues don't increase. In an analysis of the PFBC, Penn State s Smeal College of Business and College of Agricultural Sciences found the agency s reserve fund should be seen as a strategic strength and should be maintained as a type of rainy day fund for unforeseen needs. It would weaken the agency if the reserve fund were depleted to zero. Facing escalating costs and declining revenues after 12 years without an increase in the price of a fishing license, the PFBC Board of Commissioners voted on September 25, 2017, to reduce spending by $2 million in fiscal year if no additional revenues are received. The current plan for achieving the $2 million reduction in operating expenses would involve closing two warm water hatcheries and one trout hatchery in FY The plan would reduce the number of trout stocked in 2019 by 7.5 percent and result in severe reductions to the cooperative nursery program. Barring a price increase, the agency must begin to take these steps to remain financially solvent and provide basic services to Pennsylvania s 1.1 million anglers and nearly 3 million boaters. Senate Bill 30, which delegates authority to set license fees to the PFBC, has passed the Senate and stalled in the House. It is imperative for the legislature to act on some form of fee increase for the PFBC to continue to be fiscally responsible. Fiscal responsibility means maintaining a balanced budget and not spending more than it earns. SB 30 would allow the PFBC to generate sufficient revenue to immediately spend unrestricted reserves on over $6.4 million of deferred critical needs and a prioritized list of $110 million in deferred infrastructure projects. Pennsylvania anglers significantly contribute $1.2 billion to the $46 billion in national fishing expenditures. Successful businesses require funding to sustain operations and to invest in new ideas to grow sales and participation. The same applies to successful government businesses like the PFBC, which reinvests license revenue locally. It is time the legislature recognizes that the Commission is fiscally responsible and provide the necessary funds to meet the expectations of current and future generations of Pennsylvania anglers and boaters.

If you do not know who your representative is, please go to Hon. Keith Gillespie, Chair House Game and Fisheries Committee 45 East Wing PO Box Harrisburg, PA (717) Fax: (717) Hon. Bryan Barbin, Democratic Chair House Game and Fisheries Committee 321 Irvis Office Building P O Box Harrisburg, PA (717) Fax: (717) PFBC Adds Waters to Popular Keystone Select Stocked Trout Program For the second consecutive year, the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) is adding more waters to the increasingly popular Keystone Select Stocked Trout Program, bringing to 22 the total number of creeks holding the big trophy trout. The eight new waters, which will be stocked for the 2018 trout season, include: Armstrong County, Buffalo Creek, Section 03 (3.70 miles) Little Buffalo Run downstream to 0.6 miles upstream of SR4035 (Craigsville) Berks County, Tulpehocken Creek, Section 06 (1.95 miles) Outflow Blue Marsh Lake downstream to SR3008 Bridge (Rebers Road bridge) Fayette County, Meadow Run, Section 06 (2.20 miles) Bridge on Dinner Bell Road (SR2011) downstream to the mouth Lebanon County, Quittapahilla Creek, Section 04 (1.10 miles) Spruce Street Bridge (T-398) downstream to SR0934 bridge Lycoming County, Lycoming Creek, Section 04 (1.30 miles) First overhead utility line upstream of Powys Curve downstream to bridge on old Route 15 (SR0015) near Haleeka Monroe County, McMichael Creek, Section 04 (1.44 miles) 1.6 km downstream Beaver Valley Road (T-414) bridge downstream to 1.14 km downstream Turkey Hill Road (T-416) bridge Snyder County, Middle Creek, Section 04 (1.20 miles) SR4007 bridge downstream to the downstream boundary of State Game Lands 188 Tioga County, Pine Creek, Section 06 (1.06 miles) Darling Run downstream to 150 m downstream of Owassee Slide Run The PFBC announced earlier this year that it was adding six waters to the program, which was first launched in 2016 with eight creeks. Today s announcement came during the PFBC s quarterly business meeting held here. We were confident when we created the Keystone Select program that anglers would enjoy the opportunities to catch trophy trout and wouldn t mind driving the additional distances to these destination areas, said PFBC Executive Director John Arway. The addition of these eight streams now makes it even easier for anglers to fish a Keystone Select stream within just a few hours of their home. Under the program, approximately 6,500 large trout will be distributed among the 22 waters. The trout will be stocked at a rate of 175 to 225 per mile, which is comparable to the numbers of similarly sized fish in Pennsylvania s best wild trout waters. The waters are regulated under Delayed Harvest Artificial Lures Only (DHALO) regulations, which provides the opportunity to catch these fish multiple times. Under DHALO regulations, waters are open to fishing year-round, but anglers can harvest trout only between June 15 and Labor Day and the trout have to be a minimum of nine inches. For the rest of the year, these waters are managed on a catch-and-release-only basis and the creel limit is zero. Tackle is limited to artificial lures and flies. Taken from PFBC website - October
