  • Paper Is an Update of the Paper Presented by Dave Greenfield and Ron Ryczak of BAMR at the 2008 NAAMLP Conference in Durango, Colorado
    Assessment of Fluvial Geomorphology Projects at Abandoned Mine Sites in 1 the Anthracite Region of Pennsylvania Dennis M. Palladino, P.E.² Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Abandoned Mine Reclamation 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18701-1915 [email protected] (570) 830-3190 ABSTRACT Some watersheds have been so severely impacted by mining that the streams do not support aquatic life and can no longer accommodate flows or transport sediment. To fully recover the environmental resource of these scarred landscapes the land must be reclaimed and the streams reconstructed. As abandoned mine sites are being reclaimed to their approximate original contours, the hydrology of the watersheds will be returning to pre-mining conditions and generating base flows and storm discharges that residents may not have experienced in many years. A stable system will have to be designed to transport the flows and sediment while preventing erosion and flooding. Traditionally, rigid systems have been implemented that are rectangular or trapezoidal in shape and are constructed entirely of rock and concrete. These systems have a good survival rate but do not replace the resource that was lost during mining. In an attempt to reclaim the watersheds that were destroyed during mining to a natural state, the application of Fluvial Geomorphologic (FGM) techniques has been embraced at several sites in the Anthracite Region of Pennsylvania. These sites have had various degrees of success. All of the sites were designed based on bankfull conditions and were immediately successful in creating habitat for a wide variety of species. Some sites remained stable until damaged due to extreme discharge events where design, construction, or implementation flaws were revealed in regions above the bankfull elevation.

  • 69 Dams Removed in 2020 to Restore Rivers
    69 Dams Removed in 2020 to Restore Rivers American Rivers releases annual list including dams in California, Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin for a total of 23 states. Nationwide, 1,797 dams have been removed from 1912 through 2020. Dam removal brings a variety of benefits to local communities, including restoring river health and clean water, revitalizing fish and wildlife, improving public safety and recreation, and enhancing local economies. Working in a variety of functions with partner organizations throughout the country, American Rivers contributed financial and technical support in many of the removals. Contact information is provided for dam removals, if available. For further information about the list, please contact Jessie Thomas-Blate, American Rivers, Director of River Restoration at 202.347.7550 or [email protected]. This list includes all dam removals reported to American Rivers (as of February 10, 2021) that occurred in 2020, regardless of the level of American Rivers’ involvement. Inclusion on this list does not indicate endorsement by American Rivers. Dams are categorized alphabetically by state. Beale Dam, Dry Creek, California A 2016 anadromous salmonid habitat assessment stated that migratory salmonids were not likely accessing habitat upstream of Beale Lake due to the presence of the dam and an undersized pool and weir fishway. In 2020, Beale Dam, owned by the U.S. Air Force, was removed and a nature-like fishway was constructed at the upstream end of Beale Lake to address the natural falls that remain a partial barrier following dam removal.

  • 90 Dams Removed in 2019 to Restore Rivers
    90 Dams Removed in 2019 to Restore Rivers American Rivers releases annual list including dams in Alabama, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin for a total of 26 states. Nationwide, 1,722 dams have been removed from 1912 through 2019. Dam removal brings a variety of benefits to local communities, including restoring river health and clean water, revitalizing fish and wildlife, improving public safety and recreation, and enhancing local economies. Working in a variety of functions with partner organizations throughout the country, American Rivers contributed financial and technical support in many of the removals. Contact information is provided for dam removals, if available. For further information about the list, please contact Jessie Thomas-Blate, American Rivers, Director of River Restoration at 202.347.7550 or [email protected]. This list includes all dam removals reported to American Rivers (as of February 6, 2020) that occurred in 2019, regardless of the level of American Rivers’ involvement. Inclusion on this list does not indicate endorsement by American Rivers. Dams are categorized alphabetically by state. Howle and Turner Dam, Tallapoosa River, Alabama The removal of Howle and Turner Dam was in the works for over four years. This project was the result of a great partnership between the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Partners for Fish and Wildlife program and the Alabama Rivers and Streams Network. The Service coordinated the pre-restoration planning and worked with their Fisheries and Aquatic Conservation Aquatic Habitat Restoration Team to carry out the demolition and restoration of the river channel.

  • Sierra Club on Jessup Plant
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Thomas Au, Conservation Chair, Sierra Club PA Chapter, [email protected], 717-234-7445 SIERRA CLUB PENNSYLVANIA CHAPTER STATEMENT OF OPPOSITION TO THE PROPOSED NATURAL-GAS FIRED ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT IN JESSUP, PA The Pennsylvania Chapter of the Sierra Club opposes the proposal to construct a natural gas-fired electric generating plant in the Borough of Jessup, Lackawanna County. The operation of this plant would encourage further natural gas hydraulic fracturing in Northeast Pennsylvania and would produce significant air and water pollution for Jessup and the surrounding Lackawanna River valley. The proposed site for this plant is zoned for wind turbine electric generation — not natural gas power plants — and such sustainable, clean power is how electric power should be generated in Pennsylvania. Further, support for and continued reliance on dirty fossil fuels, such as fracked gas, is inconsistent with climate goals for Pennsylvania. Though the company that is proposing to construct this fossil fuel-based plant may have clean, renewable projects in other areas, this proposal is not one of them. Specifically, we are concerned that the proposed 1500 MW natural gas-fired electric generation plant will: • Emit methane, NO2 and other toxic air pollutants from its 200-ft. smokestacks, less than 3/4 mi. from a youth athletic complex and hundreds of homes in Jessup; • Risk subsidence damage from the massive plant being constructed atop both an abandoned coal mine and an abandoned municipal landfill; • Deplete Jessup’s
