The stream is net acid at this point with the following loading values: 1174 lbs/day of acid, 2 lbs/day of iron, 7 lbs/day of manganese, and 13 lbs/day of aluminum. The average pH at this point was 5.3. Data was also collected for this point in association with the Sky Haven Coal Company “Otto #1” surface mining operation (4574SM33, MP 35)."
