Catawissa Creek Restoration Association President Ed Wytovich discusses the unique aspects of the creek, the successes it has seen via two treatment facilities and the hurdles faced in addressing the Audenreid Mine Tunnel's discharge into the waterway.

The Catawissa Creek is a 40-mile-long tributary to the North Branch of the Susquehanna River, entering the river at the Columbia County town of Catawissa.
