Tony Sabol, an en vironmental protection specialist in the Depart ment’s Harrisburg Water Quality Management Region 111 Office, said the kill oc curred August 21 on Stony Run, a tributary to the Cocalico Creek, in East Cocalico Twp. The incident, involving a number of sunfish, catfish, suckers, carp and minnows, took place after a quantity of liquid manure was disposed of at the Amos Hoover piggery, Denver R 3. Sabol said Hoover nor mally disposes of the material on his fields with a manure spreader-sprayer. On this particular occasion it was disposed of on a field, where cantalopes were recently harvested, which contained strips of polyethylene mulch and the manure flowed some 300 yards into the stream. In an attempt to stop the flow of material, Hoover erected an earthen dam and also drew down his ponds to dilute the liquid manure. Sabol said the kill affected slightly over three miles of stream and some of the dead carp lodged in two large pools in the Reamstown area where they created an odor problem. He also noted that Hoover worked with township of ficials to clean up the stream and remove the dead carp, thus eliminating the odor problem.
