Water quality
Streambank erosion on Knapp Brook contributes sediment loads into the Erie Canal. Periodic dredging to restore adequate canal navigational depth causes further siltation and affects fish habitat.{{cite web |url = http://mohawk.stone-env.net/pdfs/MRW%20Assess%20Herkimer/Ferguson%20Creek%20020200040702.pdf |title = Ferguson Creek Watershed Assessment |date=July 25, 2012 |publisher = Herkimer County Soil & Water Conservation District |access-date = August 22, 2021 |location=Herkimer, NY}}
