Any water that passes over the permit area must enter the sedirtienation vond. The subsurface water flowing from the Nu Aline adit floes into a pond that was built in the 1Q50s to serve as a stock watering pond. When this pond bFcomes full the water will overflow and soak into the ground. There is another pond area below the main pond, but we have never seen water in it. The farthest we have seen the water flow after it leaves the first pond, is about 7$ feet b~for it soaks into the ground.
