• sediment delivery estimates to the ponds are considerably less than originally calculated, since
<br />significant portions of these watersheds have now been revegetated.
<br />The results of the annual survey are shown on Table 07.5, Sediment Pond Capacities.
<br />STOCK TANKS
<br />Stock Tank T-1 was completed in 2007. Stock Tank T-2 will be completed later, if constructed at all.
<br />WILDLIFE MONITORING
<br />Seneca Coal Company contracted Jones and Stokes (formerly Thunderbird Wildlife Consulting, Inc.)
