Eventually the western portion of the Susquehanna Beltway and US 15 north of Williamsport will be designated Interstate 99, as all of US 15 through Corning, NY has been twinned and made-grade seperated to Interstate standards, but there are still significant gaps of at-grade four-lane road around Jersey Shore and the interchange between section of US 220 south of Lock Haven and Interstate 80 is not yet started. Notice that tight "U"-turn flyover that makes the connection to US 15 due to the location of the river, the Lycomming Creek and other topological constraints to the interchange.

Wetlands and ponds outside of Columbia Center in the town of Columbia in rural Herkimer County make up the headwaters of the Unadilla River, which feeds the Chenango River and ultimately the Susquehanna River and the Chesapeake Bay. Run off a feedlot or a septic system here goes into loading the Chesapeake Bay, hundreds of miles to the south.
