Description: The Morrison passive mine water treatment system is located at Clarion County Park near Shippenville PA. The Clarion County Park is on a reclaimed site that was mined in the 1970s and 1980s by Glacial Minerals. Acid mine drainage with high concentrations of Fe and Mn occurred at the site and was treated chemically until the company’s bankruptcy. A passive treatment system was installed by the bonding company in 1991, but was essentially left abandoned. An effort is currently underway by the Clarion Conservation District to rebuild the system
