NEfish, had a couple beers with John. He thinks it is going to take a long time. The core trench is going to be diffucult. Things are very 'soupy' along the dam face. He was talking about doing the core trench in 15yd segments to make sure he gets it packed well. This is going to be cool. When you guys get back this way, give me a call, I would love to go out there and check it out.
He is also worried about the tap roots on the stumps causing some leakage.
