Note that the original design of the PSSA had a capacity of 74.5 MG, however the <br />VLF water balance indicated the maximum required solution storage (including all <br />contingencies) is approximately 53 MG (elevation 9759). Therefore, the constructed <br />capacity is 140 percent more than is required. <br />A stage-storage curve for the Phase 5 PSSA is presented in Figure 5. <br />AMEC Earth & Environmental, Inc. <br />2000 S.
