It is approximately {{convert|3.8|mi|km}} long and flows through Shamokin Township.[1] The watershed of the stream has an area of {{convert|6.12|sqmi|km2}}. The stream is not designated as an impaired waterbody and it has a relatively high level of water quality. It is a small, shallow stream and its watershed is designated as a Coldwater Fishery and a Migratory Fishery. A few bridges have been constructed across the stream. CourseBennys Run begins in a pond in Shamokin Township. It flows northeast for a few tenths of a mile before turning east-northeast and flowing through a valley. Over the next few miles, the stream receives four unnamed tributaries from the left and one unnamed tributary from the right. It then turns north-northeast for a few tenths of a mile before crossing Pennsylvania Route 61 and reaching its confluence with Shamokin Creek.[1] Bennys Run joins Shamokin Creek {{convert|18.20|mi|km}} upstream of its mouth.[2] HydrologyBennys Run is not designated as an impaired waterbody.[3] The engineering department of the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation once received an NPDES permit to discharge stormwater into the stream for construction purposes.[4] However, in 2005 and 2006, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection received complaints about untreated sewage discharge into the creek. The estimated flow of sewage into the stream was {{convert|12000|gal|m3}} per day.[6] Bennys Run has a relatively high level of water quality.[5] It is not impacted by mining.[8] Geography and geologyThe elevation near the mouth of Bennys Run is {{convert|584|ft|m}} above sea level.[6] The elevation of the stream's source is between {{convert|840|and|860|ft|m|0}} above sea level.[1] Bennys Run is a small and shallow stream situated in Irish Valley.[11][7] It flows in a generally easterly direction.[8] WatershedThe watershed of Bennys Run has an area of {{convert|6.12|sqmi|km2}}.[2] The mouth of the stream is in the United States Geological Survey quadrangle of Shamokin. However, its source is in the quadrangle of Trevorton.[6] The watershed borders several other watersheds, including the Little Shamokin Creek watershed, the Lick Run watershed, and the lower Shamokin Creek watershed.[9] A road known as Irish Valley Road runs alongside Bennys Run for some distance. There are areas of rural land in the vicinity of the stream.[10] HistoryBennys Run was entered into the Geographic Names Information System on August 2, 1979. Its identifier in the Geographic Names Information System is 1169259.[6] The stream is named after "Benny", a man who used to live along the stream.[8] However, it is also known as Buddys Run or Benny's Run.[6][21] This variant name appears on a United States Geological Survey map from 1952.[11] However, in 1969, several locals who had lived near the stream for 50 years had never heard of the stream being called Buddys Run.[8] A concrete tee beam bridge carrying Pennsylvania Route 61 over Bennys Run was built in 1947. It is {{convert|48.9|ft|m}} long and is situated {{convert|1|mi|km}} north of Weigh Scales. In 1967, a prestressed box beam or girders bridge was built over the stream {{convert|1|mi|km}} west of Weigh Scales in 1967. It is {{convert|37.1|ft|m}} long and carries State Route 4026. A concrete culvert bridge carrying State Route 4026 was built across the stream in 1996. This bridge is located {{convert|3|mi|km}} west of Weigh Scales and is {{convert|26.9|ft|m}} long.[12] BiologyThe drainage basin of Bennys run is designated as a Coldwater Fishery and a Migratory Fishery.[13] See also
