Dams, like much of our infrastructure, are not the sort of things that attract any attention. As long as they do their jobs, nobody notices and life goes on as normal. Even those who enjoy the benefits of these structures such as boating enthusiasts and those who use the electricity often generated at dams, rarely give them a thought. That is, until something goes wrong, and with a dam that could mean catastrophe.
Man-made structures need periodic maintenance. When that is not performed, they deteriorate. All of this is obvious, but it is often deliberately ignored for budgetary reasons. Fail to maintain a road. and you get potholes. Fail to maintain a dam, and you can end up with thousands of dead people and untold property damage. It looks like California may be headed for just such a catastrophe. More on page two.
It’s arc building time you freaking moron. Let your illegals build it for all of you.
This is were American citizens come together !
Tell Brown to call his president, Remember Trump is not there president
Dah!
The COE reviewed this Dam informed them the spill way was damaged beyond use needed repair 10 years ago they ignored. They never built the second Dam that was required when they permitted to build Orville Dam. Look it up this was a waste of money and greed by the DWR and the state of California no federal money. The people below the Dam that were flooded should sue the State of California for negligence and and putting lives in danger by letting the water level to go over the spill ways. Don’t let them fool you they have other ways to release the water they were greedy holding this water back hoping to generate power and make money off the people this summer.
And I thought it was this
Well all the money brown spent on new dmvs for the illegals could have been spent on the dam
NO!
Do not give this idiot any money. He does nothing for his water problems but builds high speed trains to transport drugs. He has a sanctuary city he will not give up so why should we help him if he does not help himself.
Jeff Jones What happened to all this talk about becoming your own country, if your were a country it would be the sixth largest economy in the world, Wow its a Dam a little water runs over the top and your country falls apart, What happens when you guy have a real problem?
