                               A SUPPLEMENT

     To the act, approved the twenty-fifth day of June, one thousand
        nine hundred and thirteen (Pamphlet Laws, five hundred fifty-
        five), entitled "An act providing for the regulation of dams,
        or other structures or obstructions, as defined herein, in,
        along, across, or projecting into all streams and bodies of
        water wholly or partly within, or forming part of the
        boundary of, this Commonwealth; vesting certain powers and
        duties in the Water Supply Commission of Pennsylvania, for
        this purpose; and providing penalties for the violation of
        the provisions hereof," by discontinuing the necessity of
        securing permits for the erection of certain dams.

        Section 1.  Be it enacted, &c., That nothing contained in the
     act to which this is a supplement shall be construed to require
     the securing of a permit from the Water and Power Resources
     Board, of the Department of Forests and Waters, for the right to
     construct any dam not exceeding three feet in height in a stream
     not exceeding fifty feet in width, where such dam is constructed
     for the sole purpose of creating a pool in such stream for fish
     and fishing purposes.
        Section 2.  All acts and parts of acts inconsistent with the
     provisions of this act are hereby repealed.
