## Narrative

The sealed area of the 3 Right 1 Main North  apparently had an area subside. This caused a run-off pond on the surface to drain into the sealed area.  It was estmated that the water contained in the pond was approximately 1 million gallons.  The inundation of water into the sealed area caused water to be impounded behind the seals.  The water was drained from behind the seals.
