About Hil10
The primary purpose of Hil10 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 Plant City.
The dam stands 14 feet tall and stretches 15,000 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 341 acres, and has a maximum storage capacity of 17,346 acre-feet.
