## Narrative

When adding extra water from the City and Plant, in an effort to fill pond three for the first time.  It was believed that the additional water being pumped into pond one overflowed and washed out the South East corner of the Pond.  No water entered the Plant or Mining areas, the water traveled East across Exel Easement into a wooded area and a farmers field.
