where to start. If you go back to Feb ‘17, most articles said that the cost to repair would be $100M, a month later $200M, Trump pledges fed funds of $274M, and a month later, viola’ now we’re at $600M and climbing - before claims.

For 300M spent in 2 months, that place should be crawling with workers like bees on honey. Maybe an engineer can say why they’re blasting/vibrating wet soil on the face of the hill? Seems weird to me, but I don’t even have a pay grade, so what do I know? Maybe they’re filling cavities?

I’ve looked at the winning contractor, Kiewit, and they seem to be everywhere. No doubt they know their business; they have 37 pages of “projects” at their website. But in the meantime, downstream agriculture is still being flooded in spite of the State allocating 100% watershare this year (so you know the farmers are pumping like bad boys). While over at Mrs. Brown’s house, a flood of money is pouring out faster than the water and nobody seems accountable to anybody.

how’s that? :)
