Burch Creek is a river in Herkimer County in the state of New York. It flows into the Mohawk River east of West Schuyler.

Water quality

Streambank erosion on Burch Creek contributes sediment loads into the Erie Canal. Periodic dredging to restore adequate canal navigational depth causes further siltation and affects fish habitat.^[3]
