Here are some photo’s of a project I worked on for about ten years before I could get all the parties and the money together to get it to move forward. Most of the stuff I do is very slow moving and it is only every once in a while that one actually has any satisfaction of doing something good.
This is Pierce Mill Dam on Rock Creek right now. It is dewatered with the flow diverted over to the left side so we can install a Denil fish ladder on the right side. This removes the last fish migration blockage on Rock Creek. And opens up about twenty miles of spawning ground for white perch, river herring and maybe even shad. We shall see..
If you ever come to DC, leave your guns at home but bring your fishing gear. You would not believe how good the fishing is in the springtime.
Nice project. Its good to be able to see a decent plan/project come to completion. I once worked on the Superconducting Super Collider [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
From living below what used to be the Teton dam I'd suggest doing something about the bottom of the dam.
Out here there is pressure to remove/breach the dams on the snake river. What would be wrong with breaching that one? Nothing more than an innocent question. Nothing else intended.
BTW, the subject seems to be an impossibility [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
BB,
i'm a little confused about that title. i've always thought the nascar and rednecks to be on one side (the good) and the treehugging,liberal Kerry voters on the other.
Last nite I read this post, it made me sick & I promptly
went to bed.
For the first time in a while, my MOJO clearly wasn't working!
Today, I feel better better, but still somewhat tramatized!
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
