The White Schöps , in Upper Sorbian Běły Šepc , is an eastern tributary of the Black Schöps in the Saxon district of Görlitz ( Germany ). It belongs to the river system of the Elbe , it reaches the Spree and the Havel via the Schwarzen Schöps.
course
The river has its source in the north of the Great Nonnenwald, which extends about 15 km west-southwest of Görlitz . Its source is located south-southwest of Deutsch-Paulsdorf between Reichenbach / OL in the north and Bernstadt auf dem Eigen in the south. The Schwarze Schöps rises a few kilometers to the west. From its source, the White Schöps runs in a predominantly north-westerly direction between the Lausitz Neisse in the east and the Spree in the west.
As an initially small meadow stream, the White Schöps flows in a north-easterly direction to head towards Görlitz. He passes the city to the west and flows through the community of Schöpstal , which he is named after. The river then runs in a northerly direction through the municipalities of Kodersdorf , Horka and Hähnichen , before gradually turning west. The Schwarzgraben flows from the Geheeger "water parts" as a right tributary.
When he arrives in Rietschen , he picks up the Raklitza . The White Schöps then flows completely canalised on the northern edge of the Reichwalde opencast mine , whose purified pit water it receives, in a westerly direction into the municipality of Boxberg / OL and flows into the Schwarzen Schöps, which flows in from the southeast, between the districts of Kringelsdorf and Boxberg . Before the relocation of its river bed in favor of the opencast mine, which took place in three construction phases between 1977 and 1991, the confluence was between Reichwalde and Kringelsdorf.
Relocation of the river bed
In order to enable the northeastern continuation of the Reichwalde opencast mine, the river bed was relocated again between 2011 and 2014. The White Schöps runs from Rietschen via Werda , Neuliebel , Hammerstadt and Altliebel (Nappatsch) to the south, past the open-cast mine, with part of the river being designed to be natural. The confluence in the Schwarzen Schöps took place a little south of the original confluence before Reichwalde after the relocation was completed.
