9/18 ADEQ says they’ve completed remedial actions at Senator Mine south of Prescott, which was threatening to dump tailings into the Hassayampa River. In 90-days they installed French drains to divert the tailings away from where they were currently building up and then installed 800-feet of pipe to divert the Hassayampa River away from the area. Officials say this is expected to take years to resolve. The end goal is to restore the river to its original flow path.
