  • Colonial Mill Sediments in Lancaster County
    Southeast Friends of the Pleistocene (SEFOP) Guidebook, Fall 2003 Fieldtrip, 17-19 October 2003 Colonial Mill Ponds of Lancaster County Pennsylvania as a Major Source of Sediment Pollution to the Susquehanna River and Chesapeake Bay Dorothy Merritts and Robert Walter Department of Earth and Environment Franklin and Marshall College Lancaster, PA 17603 [email protected] [email protected] INTRODUCTION The timing and ultimate source of sediment erosion in Lancaster County has far-reaching implications beyond local interests in farmland conservation. The Conestoga watershed is an environmental hotspot, yielding by far more sediment pollution to the Susquehanna River per acre of land than any other part of the Susquehanna River watershed (c.f., Reuter et al., this volume; Gellis, this volume). Sediment is the greatest stream pollutant in the United States, and it is especially devastating to the Chesapeake Bay as a contributor to algal blooms, low oxygen levels, and habitat degradation. Until the 1930s, much of the sediment in Lancaster County streams came directly from farm slopes, as greater than 70% of the County was farmland and farmers had not yet begun to practice conservation techniques such as contour plowing and crop rotation. Since that time, however, many Lancaster County farmers have worked with county, state, and federal agencies to mitigate soil erosion. Still, the amount of sediment pollution from Lancaster County to the Susquehanna has remained high. The critical question is why – why fifty years after the implementation of conservation farming practices is Lancaster County still one of the most significant contributors of sediment to the Susquehanna River and the Chesapeake Bay.
