Little Conemaugh River : ウィキペディア英語版 | Little Conemaugh River
The Little Conemaugh River is a tributary of the Conemaugh River, approximately 30 mi (48 km) long, in western Pennsylvania in the United States. The main branch rises in eastern Cambria County, along the western slope of the Appalachian ridge separating the watersheds of the Ohio and Susquehanna rivers. It flows west-southwest through the mountains, past Cassandra, Portage, and Summerhill, where it is joined by the South Fork Little Conemaugh River. It joins the Stonycreek River at Johnstown to form the Conemaugh. ==Mine drainage== The river flows through scenic mountainous areas but is considered severely degraded by abandoned mine drainage – most notably, the Hughes bore hole〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 AMD & ART Hughes Bore hole )〕 – from the long exploitation of the region's coal resources. The recovery of the river is an ongoing project of federal, state, and private agencies.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Stonycreek - Conemaugh River Improvement Project )〕
