‘Whitish material’ leaks into tributary of Marsh Creek State Park, site of Mariner Pipeline spill in 2020

It is unclear how much of the substance made its way into the water but it did not appear to be a large amount in comparison to the Mariner East spill.

A Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection inspector's report from Feb. 16 shows white coloration of a tributary to Marsh Creek Lake behind homes on Waterview Road, Upper Uwchlan Township, Chester County. The substance was emitted near a former sinkhole related to the Mariner East 2 pipeline.
