The Blackwater River, which flows more than 30 miles through West Virginia s Allegheny Mountains, ranks among the top 10 most endangered rivers in the nation, according to a new report. The river is threatened by a proposed four-lane highway construction project which would cross all of its headwater streams. Judy Rodd, executive director of the group Friends of Blackwater, said Corridor H would involve building a bridge in an area honeycombed with old mines and explains the construction could compromise decades-old work to actively treat the water in the North Fork of the Blackwater impacted by acid mine drainage. .
