Hemingway Creek experienced degradation by dispersed low-level pollutants from surrounding land uses entering the creek through stormwater runoff, and by silt from roads and perhaps the two rock quarries. The effects of these pollutants have been exacerbated by the many historical physical alterations of the stream channel.
