      Them Beavers gotta realize, although they're amazing at what they do, sometimes it's really not in the world's best interest to dam up *some* areas. And we humans gotta realize how beneficial they are. They can make an oasis out of what's mostly desert, give them credit.

    I find your videos so fascinating! Thanks for sharing a lot of great material. I recently watched your video with the old pipe collapsing. It’s good to see that it was replaced. That new drain looks so much better than the previous one. It seems that the beaver debris has damaged the silt fence at the outlet on the left side when looking at it with the outlet in front of you. Whatever sediment and debris the state wants to manage is bypassing their controls with that silt fence compromised.

    I’m obsessed with your obsession with this lake! You “didn’t expect to be clearing the new drain”, but when it was installed, you predicted the beavers would hate it, so not really a surprise. And it does look like the DoT has been visiting and clearing some debris. You could become a qualified drainage consultant, with your knowledge of beaver-proof drains from the middle of the lake.

I found out about the collapse a few months after it happened. Videos popped up on recent uploads that I might want to see and haven't stopped watching the channel since. The 2nd culvert you found since a trail has been made I'm guessing they're going to change it before it before it does fail

    Hi P10, great vids and very interesting. You should go and talk to a supervisor on becoming their Engineer of Drainage (future job title) and get hired on. Most city workers don't like doing what you do and you really enjoy it, so its a win for you and them too hire you; for these projects. You supply them with highly valuable information on their drainage systems and you unclog them from future disasters. and saving them millions in funds.

    That thing you're describing where the pipe comes up in the middle of the lake/pond is called a "Weir" you can build them to adjust water height too by casting 3 sides out of concrete and one side with boards on edge, preferably ship lath. In the fall you take boards out to drop the level, and before the spring put the boards back in so thaw won't create a torrent. Fish hatcheries use this method.

  • @MrJtappin
    @MrJtappin 4 роки тому

    Looks like it had overflowed the road during recent flooding. Wasn't that green thing in the lake around those rocks to stop debris? Sounds like water is running around the blockage. When you did your walk through it was hollow behind the iron.

    The biggest problem with American infrastructure is that once it is finished the people in charge think it will last forever. This means no money is set aside for regular maintenance. Couple that with the American philosophy of never having enough workers to even do regular maintenance and you have a recipe for a catastrophic collapse

    I imagine the ribbons and stakes are because they're planning to straighten and reinforce the ditch line? Keeping the water moving means keeping debris moving, which means fewer deposits, which means fewer backups, which means less flooding.
