Leviathan Mine Pit Flow Nr Markleeville Ca reservoir
Leviathan Mine Pit Flow Nr Markleeville Ca
The Leviathan Mine Pit Flow is located near Markleeville, California, and is a result of decades of mining activities in the area. The hydrology of the site is influenced by the nearby Sierra Nevada mountain range, which provides snowmelt and rainwater runoff that feeds into the pit. The pit is also known to contain high levels of heavy metals, which can have negative impacts on water quality and aquatic life. To mitigate these impacts, a water treatment plant has been installed to remove contaminants before discharging the water into nearby streams. The site has limited agricultural or recreational uses due to its history and ongoing remediation efforts.

About Leviathan Mine Pit Flow Nr Markleeville Ca
Where does the data for Leviathan Mine Pit Flow Nr Markleeville Ca come from?
Daily storage, pool elevation, and release rates are sourced from USGS, USBR, and USACE monitoring stations. Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
Storage observations are updated daily by the operating agency. The 15-day weather forecast refreshes throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- check the "as of" timestamp on the storage card.
What does the Hazard hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this reservoir, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
