label: Description
content: A digital photograph taken above Blackbeard Creek as it flows by the Interstate Paper facility in Riceboro, Georgia. Trees occupy the bottom left corner of the image. Farther south, remnant rice fields are visible, marked by a lighter shade of green than the surrounding vegetation. Blackbeard Creek and its tributaries meander around these fields, separating them from Interstate Paper’s facility, which occupies the middle of the photo. Puffs of white exhaust emanate from two pipes on the premises. Just southeast of the papermill, a portion of a flooded water catchment and its tree-lined levees are observable, while Blackbeard Creek can be seen flowing eastward through the surrounding grassland and underneath the I-95.
