I just hope they don’t have the dam wired.

I've heard that the dam is built on a very unstable and soft foundation, and without constant monitoring and maintenance, might fall apart on its own.

Yes, the dam was built on gypsum formations, and there are 24 pumps contiually pumping grout into the fissures that constantly develop.

If those pumps are not maintained......
