JAQUEZ: As you can see,. this is <br />the same swimming pool. There are lots of tracks, <br />deer and rabbits right here and humans. Down in <br />that area is the Rito Seco (indicating). It is only <br />a couple hundred feet away. It is the most <br />incredible design. It is no wonder that the cyanide <br />spill killed all those fish. <br />(Next slide.) <br />MR. JAQUEZ: What happened in April <br />of 1975 is that, according to Earth Sciences, the <br />days were warmer than had been anticipated. The <br />snowmelt then filled these ponds. They overflowed, <br />ran over this berm into the Rito Seco, and the rest <br />is history. That place is contaminated. <br />(Next slide.) <br />MR. JAQUEZ: These are the wetlands, <br />
