Acid mine drainage in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania
Shamokin Creek flows orange from the effects of acid mine drainage in Shamokin, Pa., on Sept. 17, 2019. As water flows through unreclaimed mines, it dissolves minerals that make it acidic. As the water reaches streams it increases in pH, causing rust-colored iron oxide to precipitate out of the water. (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)
