Audenried Tunnel
- ... that the Audenried Tunnel contributes up to 80% of Catawissa Creek's acidity?
ALT 1: ... that the Audenried Tunnel normally has a discharge of around 8500 gallons per minute, but can reach 300,000 gallons per minute during heavy rainstorms?
ALT 2: ... that only 1,300 feet (400 m) of the Audenried Tunnel have been mapped since at least 1971?
Moved to mainspace by King jakob c 2 (talk). Self nominated at 23:23, 19 November 2013 (UTC).
All three hooks verified. Length/newness verified. Prose generally fine, needs slight tweaking regarding the acidity percentages (80-84). No other issues detected. My only concern are some statements in the hydrology section which do not seem to be supported by the references, ex.This is 3.73 times the total maximum daily load for manganese. Where do these numbers come from? Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 02:13, 30 November 2013 (UTC)
- Template:Ping The citations are located at the end of the paragraph. The hydrology section is mostly cited in here. --Jakob (Scream about the things I've broken) 02:19, 30 November 2013 (UTC)

- The problem with this is why are these calculations notable? And what is their significance? If they are indeed notable or significant some reliable source must have covered them and commented on them.
