We're able to map five different sinkholes, 4.6 miles of the seven that we need to get for the first year, and so the WKPP divers as well as the sunfish are working flawlessly together, and everything's gone really well without a hitch," Werner said.Within that 4.6 miles, over 24,000 feet have been mapped.The team hopes to start back up in the fall to complete the last 3 miles planned for this year.This story was reported on-air by a journalist and has been converted to this platform with the assistance of AI.
