Info
Miller Run is a tributary of Limestone Run in Union County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately 1.2 miles (1.9 km) long and flows through East Buffalo Township and Lewisburg. The watershed of the stream has an area of 0.87 square miles (2.3 km2). The stream has no officially named tributaries. It is very small and is not a perennial stream, but is impacted by stormwater flows and also has high concentrations of sediment. The stream's chemical hydrology has been significantly affected by human use. Major rock formations in its watershed include the Bloomsburg Formation, the Keyser-Tonoloway Formation, and the Wills Creek Formation.Most of the watershed of Miller Run is owned by Bucknell University. A significant fraction of the watershed is on urban land, but there is also some forested land. The stream was being channelized as early as the 1930s. In the 21st century, a number of studies and restoration projects have been done on it. The stream is a Warmwater Fishery and six fish species have been observed within it, though only one is found in its lower reaches. It has a very low concentration of benthic macroinvertebrates.
