Big Run AMD Remediation Phase II

     

The important stream clean-up continues on Big Run. What is the importance of cleaning up Big Run? The PA Fish and Boat Commission will not stock trout from the confluence of Big Run downstream to the Kiski River, which is perhaps the best trout habitat on Blacklegs Creek. Cleaning up Big Run means opening an entire new stretch of stream to trout fishing. Phase I, the Big Run #2 project is complete, and we recently began work on Big Run Phase II. This project will treat the Big Run #7 discharge while paving the way to treat the #8 discharge at a later date. View our Growing Greener proposal for more details.
