About Pol108
The primary purpose of Pol108 is tailings. Tailings dams contain waste material from mining operations — typically a slurry of finely ground rock left over after valuable minerals have been extracted. These structures require ongoing monitoring because tailings can contain heavy metals and other contaminants. The dam is owned by Mosaic Fertilizer Llc (private). It impounds the Unnamed Pond near Fort Meade.
The dam stands 24 feet tall and stretches 18,791 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 449 acres, and has a storage capacity of 10,958 acre-feet.
