---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
BC14 | N/A | No | No | Abandoned mine discharge; Emanates from an abandoned oil well; Located along Blacks Creek, downstream of stream point BC14.1; upstream of Porter Road and BC15 discharge. There appears to be some confusion/discrepency between sample point location maps and water quality data of discharge BC14 and BC15. There is a possibility that the water quality and flow rates have changed, but the data listed in the TMDL for BC14 and BC15 seem to be switched based upon existing monitoring. Therefore, the data listed for BC14 includes PA DEP BC15. |

BC15 | N/A | No | No | Abandoned Mine Discharge; located upstream of Porter Road close to road and behind the house that is located across the street from BC16 treatment system. There appears to be some confusion/discrepency between sample point location maps and water quality data of discharge BC14 and BC15. There is a possibility that the water quality and flow rates have changed, but the data listed in the TMDL for BC14 and BC15 seem to be switched based upon existing monitoring.

906-4 | N/A | No | No | Abandoned Mine Discharge; Emenates from an abandoned surface mine pit; Confluences with Abandoned Mine Discharge 906-5to form unnamed headwaters tributary #18 to Blacks Creek; Upstream of 906-2 which feeds into the AMD impacted wetland; BMI sampling point |

906-5 | N/A | No | No | Abandoned Mine Discharge; Initially emanates at toe of spoil at base of large rock (Latitude 41.176048928 Longitude 79.931784324); Uncertain if source is underground or surface mine; Discharge seems to emanate from a more diffuse area than it appears and picks up additional mine water as it flows in channel; Starting on 12/15/15, the monitoring point location was changed to a culvert where the water discharges to and forms the stream channel. Therefore flow data before 12/15/15 may not be truly accurate especially during low flow doncidtions; Confluences with Mine Discharge 906-4 to form unnamed headwaters tributary #18 to Blacks Creek; Upstream of 906-2 which feeds portion of the AMD impacted wetland; BMI sampling point |
