Derr Run begins in a small pond on a hill in Penn Township. It flows south for several tenths of a mile and enters a valley before turning south-southeast. After several tenths of a mile, the stream turns south for a few tenths of a mile before turning south-southeast again and entering Penn Township. Several tenths of a mile further downstream, it turns southeast for several tenths of a mile. The stream then leaves its valley, crosses Pennsylvania Route 118, and turns southwest, flowing through the valley of Little Muncy Creek. After a few tenths of a mile, it reaches its confluence with Little Muncy Creek.[1]
Derr Run joins Little Muncy Creek Шаблон:Convert upstream of its mouth.[2]
In 2014, Waste Management of Pennsylvania, Inc. was issued an Erosion and Sediment Control Permit for which the receiving waterbody is Derr Run.[5] In 2007, the US Gypsum Company was issued a permit to build, maintain, and operate a Шаблон:Convert long natural gas pipeline crossing the stream in two places, as well as crossing other streams. However, one of the crossings of Derr Run was planned to involve no impact to the stream; the other was planned to impact Шаблон:Convert.[4]
Derr Run is classified as a Coldwater Fishery and a Migratory Fishery, as are all of the other named tributaries of Little Muncy Creek.[5][6]
