  • Watershed 11A, Little Juniata River
    08/22/01 DEP Bureau of Watershed Management Watershed Restoration Action Strategy (WRAS) State Water Plan Subbasin 11A Little Juniata River and Frankstown Branch Watersheds Blair, Huntingdon, Bedford, Cambria, and Centre Counties Introduction The 738-square mile Subbasin 11A consists of two major parts, the 395-square mile Frankstown Branch of the Juniata River watershed and its major tributaries Beaverdam Branch, Blair Gap Run, Canoe Creek, Piney Creek, and Clover Creek, and the 343-square mile Little Juniata River watershed and its major tributaries, Bald Eagle Creek, Sinking Creek, and Spruce Creek. A total of 1,051 streams flow for 1,314 miles through the subbasin. The subbasin is included in HUC Area 2050302, Upper Juniata River, a Category I, FY99/2000 Priority watershed under the Unified Watershed Assessment developed by the Department in 1998. The Frankstown Branch and the Little Juniata River join to form the man stem Juniata River at the eastern edge of the subbasin. Geology/Topography The topography and geology of the subbasin is varied, as is typical of the Ridge and Valley Ecoregion, which comprises most of the subbasin. This area consists of a series of narrow northeast-southwest trending ridges and steep, narrow valleys formed during the uplift of the Appalachian Mountain chain. Most of the mountains are folded into tight loops and form dead- end valleys. The numerous folds in the mountains result in repetition of rock types throughout the basin, with sandstone-quartzite on the ridges and limestone and shale in the valleys. The steeply sloping topography can lead to increased runoff during storm events and discourage infiltration to the groundwater.
