Reeds Run Restoration Project

The Reeds Run Restoration project involved the removal of coal refuse and the construction of an aerobic wetland to treat any remaining discharges on the site.  The largest discharge, RD0-D1, which emanated within Reeds Run, was eliminated with the removal of the coal refuse pile along the stream.  The  small amount of coal refuse that remains along the stream bank and is likely causing a small seep within the wetland area.
