Everyone is boxed in with regulation.

If someone dredges a creek, that creek moves faster. That creek empties into another creek or river. That river into another river and so on.

The thinking is that your dredging or widening of creeks affects everyone down stream. That if you make all of those tributaries efficient, then the Tennessee, Cumberland, Ohio and Mississippi are overwhelmed quicker. On a smaller scale, it's like local zoning calling for retention ponds for new construction.

I own property along both sides of the Ohio River. About five years ago I was informed by the Army Corp of Eng by letter that some county in Northern Kentucky wanted to widen a creek. If I had issue with it, I could come and state my objection at some meeting.

There isn't a happy medium with these people. It's all or nothingall. Just imagine them contacting every land owner from Covington to the Gulf of Mexico to try to get a rise. They've never informed me of any other request upriver since. Either no-one bothers to ask anymore or they don't need my opinion.

The answer was in that tweet above. TVA adding dams and reservoirs ended a lot of heart ache. We rarely see the wild, untamed streams and rivers in the US like we did two weeks ago in WNC. That's some third world shit where there's no plan for runoff.

The elevation change from Mt Mitchell to Lake Lure is nearly a mile. There not a runoff plan that is going to help it unless you move entire streams, which is why the towns are there in the first place. . The water just came too fast. This was a record setting event for the area and may not happen again ever. I spend probably 1/3 of the year in western NC. There’s nowhere for that much water to go.

Exactly. The dock workers union has the right to oversee and negotiate for their members. They don't have the right to prevent the work from being done, if they strike. They no longer have a contract.

The port can directly hire whomever is legally eligible to be hired to unload cargo. Preventing them from hiring people, staffing their docks, and unloading their cargo is illegal AND therefore criminal.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Dams & flood projects had nothing to do with the flooding. French broad and Nolichucky both run to Douglas lake. Douglas had already been dropped almost to winter pool. The water came too fast. Nolichucky has dams on it. It didn’t stop the water. Other rivers affected worse had dams too. The flood was just a freak occurrence where an absurd amount of water was dropped on mountains with major elevation changes. But you’re right, it’s not a climate deal. This has happened before over 100 years ago. It wasn’t climate change then either.

There is another way to do this without large reservoirs. USDA would build multiple small reservoirs on private lands which is what's happened in most of Kentucky. They work with private landowners and get them to install these with cost sharing. I know a little bit about flooding, that's a joke, but do not know that watershed. Areas subject to flooding are going to flood. The only hope is trying to hold water back. This is probably the only way around this issue in the future.

"Since 1944, NRCS and local sponsors have built some 10,400 small watershed dams in the United States. Kentucky’s watershed program includes about 200 dams in 32 watershed projects, which were constructed between the mid 1950’s through 2009. These were primarily constructed under the authority of PL 566. These dams were constructed to provide benefits such as flood control, rural water supply, recreation, and wildlife habitat. Most of these dams are sponsored and maintained by the watershed conservancy districts.

Kentucky has 38 watershed conservancy districts spanning across the state. The majority of the watershed conservancy districts are concentrated in the westernmost part of Kentucky. Each watershed conservancy district has a board of directors who oversee the operations of the district. Watershed conservancy districts that are within the boundary of a single county have 5 directors on their boards. Watershed conservancy districts that are in multiple districts have an additional 3 directors for each additional county."

Most people don't even know that the above exist. This is the type of government program that's successful and not intrusive.

Douglas lake is at 991 ft above sea level and French River is at 1990 or so. A lake 1000 ft below the problem is definitely no answer.

You have absolutely no idea what any of those protesters were charged with or even if any were convicted. Are you saying every single person arrested at the Jan 6th riot was automatically guilty regardless of the court case outcome?? That is what you are saying about Kamala tweeting about a bail fund. All that means is they were made aware of a bail fund.
She didn't pay for their bail....offer to pardon anyone involved (Like Trump has).....make any statements on their guilt or innocence (Like Trump has).....or take any other stance on that issue (Like sing songs with them while they serve time--Like Trump has).
There is ZERO comparison between Kamala's tweet and Trump's actions regarding rioters.
