About Pol41
The primary purpose of Pol41 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 U.s. Agri - Chem (private). It impounds the Unnamed Pond near Fort Meade.
The dam stands 135 feet tall and stretches 4,636 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 22 acres, and has a storage capacity of 2,357 acre-feet.
At 135 feet, this dam is taller than 99% of all dams in the United States.
