This issue's cover: Steve Kepler takes a pH measurement in Centre County's Lick Run. Kepler is a Fisheries Biologist in the Commission Division of Environmental Services. Taking measurements like these is a small part of the effort to stop the acid mine drainage that taints some Pennsylvania streams. Please turn to page 17 to read about the successes in combating acid mine drainage in Schuylkill County. Cover photo by Art Michaels.

Note: Your March/April 1999 issue will arrive a little late so that we can include in that issue the 1999 Inseason Trout Stocking Schedule.
