About Pol102
The primary purpose of Pol102 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 11 feet tall and stretches 75 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 100 acres, and has a storage capacity of 200 acre-feet.
