National Hydrography Dataset NHDFlowline layer with spatial representation of existing water uses defined in Title 25 Environmental Protection, Department of Environmental Protection, Chapter 93, Water Quality Standards. The Pennsylvania Code just cited provides a definition for distinguishing between designated and existing use classification. This GIS layer displays these uses spatially on an interactive stream map. Public users can drill down to locations on the map to view and map the existing uses of the water bodies of interest. The layer can also be used in conjunction with other spatially referenced data for spatial analyses.

This ArcGIS Map Package contains information on brook trout occupancy in the southern portion of the brook trout range (PA and south). Fish sample data from a number of state and federal agencies/organizations were used to define patches for brook trout as groups of occupied contiguous catchment polygons from the National Hydrography Dataset Plus Version 1 (NHDPlusV1) catchment GIS layer. After defining patches, NHDPlusV1 catchments were assigned occupancy codes. Then state and federal agencies reviewed patches and codes to verify data accuracy. A similar effort is currently being conducted by the Eastern Brook Trout Joint Venture to develop occupancy data for the remainder of the brook trout range including states of New York, Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Ohio. This ArcGIS Map Package contains data for the entire southern portion of the brook trout range with preset symbology that displays brook trout occupancy. The Map Package also includes the same information clipped into seperate layers for each state. State information is provided for the convenience of users that are interested in data for only a particular state. Additional layers displaying state boundaries, quadrangle maps, and the brook trout range are also included as spatial references.

Field evaluations of existing habitat suitability index (HSI) models for spawning adults, eggs, and larvae of American shad (Alosa sapidissima) were conducted in 1990-1992; initial models for juveniles in nursery habitats were developed. Fish abundance in various habitats of the upper Delaware River was quantified by (1) observation of adult spawning activity, (2) collection of eggs and larvae with metered plankton and drift nets, and (3) enumeration of juveniles by underwater observation and seining techniques. Regression analysis, principal component analysis, and range analysis were used to relate abundance to an array of physical habitat variables potentially influencing fish distributions.

No HSI model was previously developed for juvenile American shad in riverine habitats. Four physical habitat variables were correlated with juvenile abundance: water temperature, dissolved oxygen (covariates), river depth, and turbidity. Regression analysis, principal component analysis, and range analysis were used to relate abundance to an array of physical habitat variables potentially influencing fish distributions.

Bald Eagles are no longer protected under the federal Endangered Species Act. Therefore, section 7 consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is no longer necessary. However, Bald Eagles remain protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. To help landowners, land managers, and others meet the intent of the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, the Service prepared National Bald Eagle Management Guidelines. This map depicts intact Bald Eagle nests in Pennsylvania with a 330', 660' and 1000' buffer zone established around each site. These locations were identified by historic data, aerial surveys, and field observations during the 2015 to 2021 nesting seasons. New nest sites may have been established since the latest surveys were completed, so additional surveys are recommended for potential development projects. You must 'zoom in' to the nest locations for the actual nest site buffer zones to appear.
