Pamlico-Tar Riverkeeper Jill Howell was out in the field this week, looking for the potential source of pollution in a Washington waterway.

Last week, Sound Rivers received several reports from residents about Maple Branch, a creek that flows into Runyon Creek, which then flows into the Pamlico River. According to one report from a resident whose property abuts the waterway, Maple Branch had been running very cloudy for more than a week, which, they said, was really uncommon.
