About Har8
The primary purpose of Har8 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 Palmetto.
The dam stands 7 feet tall and stretches 15,290 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 337 acres, and has a maximum storage capacity of 10,111 acre-feet.
