    Can't wait to see it fill. The river flow from the dam releases is equally impressive through town right now.

    The problem with a 25 year warranty on a new roof on your house is not the 24 year, it is the first year, and oh boy are they going to get their first year test.

    Oh look who made it to the KRV, Mr Kevin McCarthy a guy who's been representing this area forever yet does not care about this area. The only time he ever Asked about the Erskine creek fire victims was during his campaign dude has done nothing to help secure funding. The last time he was here did he meet with the community nope, just had a meeting with the elderly chamber of commerce who wants this valley to go back to the 1970s.

Glad I don't live in Commifornia.

      What was wrong with the valley in the '70s? Everything I look at this place has been great forever before and after the dam. As for Erskine Creek what do you expect them to do of Obama says no and FEMA doesn't want to help guess what there ain't much he can really do. Now that he's in the position of speaker of the house things can change. And I will vote for him again in 2 years You don't vote out the speaker of the house.

    2:20 As an engineer Michael Crawford should know better. He means 'cubic yards' of volume, yet he says 'yards' as in distance, and makes no sense.

    • @sorensolveig599
      @sorensolveig599 Рік тому +1

      You are technically correct, but shortening "cubic yards" to simply "yards" is very common slang in the civil construction industry. Everyone in the industry knows what he means.

    Because floodwaters really care about ribbon cutting ceremonies. The dam would not function without a bunch of self declared important people telling each other how important they are.
    I'm so glad the important people were able to have their party before the dam was needed.
