whitebutler Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Hey Scott, Should we volunteer to detect where all the erosion is? We can tell them it will help pay for repairs. John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvanwho Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Is that dam really 700 feet tall? Would make a heck of a wave...and I thought Ca was still having a drought? Scary stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klunker Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Just think. These jeenyusez at the Calif. Dept. of Water Resources are now in charge of making wise, fact based, honest and forthright decisions concerning gold dredging and mining. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no recollection of it existing. I like to call them genie asses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Obviously not a good situation but thankfully an actual failure of the dam itself does not appear to be in the cards. I had to shake my head over the plan to plug the gorge by dropping rocks in it from a helicopter. Sure, it might make it look like the gov is trying to do something but that is a massive waste of money. No way you are going to plug this thing chucking rocks in it. They will blow out as fast as they drop them in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanursepaul Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 They may as well drop marshmallows in there--they would burn up less fuel goofing around.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sourdough Scott Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 I don't think they are dropping them in the damaged spillway . They are dropping them under the emergency spillway . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
