About Har6
The primary purpose of Har6 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 The Mosaic Company (private). It impounds the Unnamed Pond near Wauchula.
The dam stands 16 feet tall and stretches 8,798 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 115 acres, and has a maximum storage capacity of 3,689 acre-feet.
