About Pol57
The primary purpose of Pol57 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 Mulberry.
The dam stands 15 feet tall and stretches 7,629 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 22 acres, and has a storage capacity of 707 acre-feet.
