Little Mehoopany Creek is a tributary of the Susquehanna River in Wyoming County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately 8.4 miles (13.5 km) long and flows through Windham Township and Mehoopany Township.[1] The watershed of the creek has an area of 11.3 square miles (29 km2), most of which is forested land and agricultural land. No stream in the watershed is designated as an impaired waterbody. The main rock formation in the watershed is the Catskill Formation and the main soil association is the Wellsboro-Oquaga-Morris.
There are four artificial lakes along Little Mehoopany Creek: Sharpe Pond, Negro Pond, Chamberlain Pond, and Jennings Pond, and numerous palustrine wetlands in the creek's watershed. A number of bridges have been built over the creek and the natural gas industry is active in the area. The watershed is designated as a Coldwater Fishery and a Migratory Fishery.
