22 years have elapsed from the day I first watched thousands upon thousands of gallons per minute of acid mine drainage emerge from the mouth of the Jeddo Mine Tunnel near the city of Hazleton in Luzerne County, Pa. And the home in which my late wife and I lived for 20 of those years was within shouting distance of the Susquehanna trib, Little Nescopeck Creek, which the Jeddo outfall killed and continues to kill today. In turn, the Little Nescopeck merges with Nescopeck Creek which then flows into the Susquehanna near the borough of Berwick. I am not surprised at all to learn that smallmouths are in trouble in this big river. The Jeddo continues to discharge an average of 40,000 gallons of AMD per minute. How could the Susky not give?
