Grassy Island Creek

Grassy Island Creek is a tributary of the Lackawanna River in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately 4.4 miles (7.1 km) long and flows through Jefferson Township and Jessup. The watershed of the creek has an area of 5.42 square miles (14.0 km2). The lower reaches of the creek are impaired, but the upper reaches are not impaired. It is an intermittent stream during the summer, but its flow has been recorded as being as high as 116,553.21 gallons per minute. Some manganese, acidity, and alkalinity are also in the creek. It is in the Appalachian Mountain section of the ridge and valley physiographic province. The main rock formations in the creek's watershed are made of sandstone and interbedded sedimentary rocks. Some reservoirs are in the watershed at the boundary between the Pocono Formation and the Llewellyn Formation. The watershed of Grassy Island Creek is mainly forested, but there are also residential lands and abandoned mine lands. The creek is a source of flooding in Jessup. The remains of collieries such as the Sterrick Creek Colliery, the Mount Jessup Colliery, and the Pompey Colliery also occur in its vicinity. In 1996, the creek's channel failed, causing it to wash more than 30,000 cubic yards of culm into the Lackawanna River. In the 2000s, various channel repair efforts were carried out. A proposed natural gas-fired power plant intends to dump waste water into the creek.

Aylesworth Creek

Aylesworth Creek is a tributary of the Lackawanna River in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately 4.9 miles (7.9 km) long and flows through Carbondale Township and the boroughs of Mayfield and Archbald. The watershed of the creek has an area of 6.73 square miles (17.4 km2). Part of the creek is impaired by abandoned mine drainage and/or resource extraction. The creek tends to be slightly acidic, but its iron, manganese, and aluminum concentrations do not need reduction to meet its total maximum daily load requirements. Its watershed is in the Appalachian Mountain section of the ridge and valley physiographic province. The headwaters of the creek are in the Moosic Mountains. The rock formations in the watershed mainly consist of interbedded sedimentary rock and sandstone. Lakes in the watershed of Aylesworth Creek include the Edgerton Reservoir and Aylesworth Creek Lake. The former is a former water supply reservoir, while the latter is used for flood control and recreation. The creek's upper reaches are mainly undisturbed, while the lower reaches are impacted by past mining operations and urban development. The significant majority of the watershed is forested. Pennsylvania State Game Lands are in the watershed's upper reaches and a tract of land maintained by the Lackawanna Valley Conservancy is at its mouth. Aylesworth Creek is designated as a Coldwater Fishery and a Migratory Fishery.
