Hey Dave,
I had a report of one of our projects being underwater today as a result of the recent rains and high flows in the Yadkin
River. The project is visible from HWY 421 beside the Dinkins Bottom exit, just across the Yadkin County line from
Forsyth County. I'm sure we lost some sediment from the project, but the area surrounded the project were recently
tilled for agricultural use, so it's hard to say how much sediment we might have lost from the project vs from the
surrounding land use.
I've attached some photos above of the project that were taken in late April, prior to the flood event. I'm hoping the
photos will serve to show that we had appropriate EC measures in place.
I've also attached a couple photos of what the project looks like today. I believe the latest reports suggest the river will
crest mid -day today. As soon as it drops enough to get back in there we will fix / re -install all of our EC
measures. Hopefully we will get some drier weather in the next few days.
Thanks and let me know if you need additional information,
Kevin
