Credit: Georgia Environmental Protection Division		 A creek in Georgia has had mass fish deaths following a soybean spill that happened roughly one mile away from the area in July.

So far, more than 100 fish have died in Flat Creek, a tributary to Lake Lanier in Hall County, a spokesperson for the Georgia Environmental Protection Division confirmed for Fox News Digital on Monday, Aug. 22.
 

Last week, local news affiliate FOX 5 Atlanta first reported the deaths, which have been linked to the presence of soybeans in the water system.

"We started noticing the problem with soybeans appearing in the creek, along with discolored water," said Becca Risser, a headwaters watershed specialist at Chattahoochee Riverkeeper – a water quality monitoring nonprofit, in an interview with FOX 5 Atlanta.
