Upper Bynum Run Stream Study (2018)

Bynum Run, a tributary to the Bush River, is between Forest Hill and Abingdon. The watershed or area of land that drains to the stream is 15,000 acres. The headwaters is near the intersection of MD Route 24 and Jarrettsville Road. The Upper Bynum Run Stream Study will only include the area from MD Route 22 near Bynum Run Park north to the headwaters, or approximately 30% of the total watershed (shown below as the green line).
