Seismic Results from Atlas Agro Test Drops
Nick, Robert, Mike

In December of 2023, Atlas Agro, who plans on building a fertilizer production plan that is net carbon neutral on DOE land, made some test seismic noise by dropping a 1600-lb block into an excavated hole. Atlas Agro made nearly 100 test drops. I was asked to see if any of the seismic noise appeared on any of our seismometers. I have been working with Robert Schofield, and have not seen any of the seismic noise. I have attached a DCC link that contains a PDF with some of the time series of the drops and includes links to the rest of the time series.
