    In this video we get to see the rollways of the Sanford Dam being demolished with a breaker attached to an excavator. They were also pouring the sill in front of the dam. The Sanford Dam is located on what used to be Sanford Lake. Sanford Lake is located in Mid Michigan. This footage was filmed on July 12, 2022. This was after the collapse of the Edenville Dam on May 19, 2020. Wixom Lake was rapidly rising due to heavy rainfall and the Edenville dam could not hold back the water. The side of the dam failed sending water rushing towards Sanford Village. The aftermath and damage left behind is devastating. Make sure you subscribe to catch the follow up videos I will be filming.

    Thank you for your diligence and covering this whole story and the restoration and rebuilding of the dam and the community and the people and I salute this community I live in Southern California below Isabella Lake and the dam it Isabella Lake I won't go into the issues and such that surround it I'll let you Google it's old it's earth filled it's whatever it is and it's not that stable thankfully or not thankfully however you want to look at it there is so little water in California there's hardly any water behind the dam but I've seen that dam where water is literally sloshing over the top splashing and coming up appearing to dribbling down the other side when it's been so full when we've had a huge snowpack which we haven't had for a long time. I want to encourage certain people certain groups certain County and state officials to watch some of your videos because that dam at Lake Isabella is a ticking time bomb if California ever gets full of water again. God bless you all you're all in my prayers. I'm sorry for all you lost I pray that this is now been taking care of and it threw God's will you all will be safe and be able to enjoy this beautiful place you live again

      Between the Four Lakes Task force and the workers on the ground ensuring that the dam is and will be stable for years to come should be addressed in your comments instead of negativity. I have witnessed first hand the work that has gone into the rebuilding of the dam and the town of Sanford. I am not from Sanford, but everyone involved in the rebuilding process should be proud of what they have accomplished over the past two years. Thank you Jordan for the hard work that you have put in keeping us updated.

    Jordan, I haven't been watching the feed. New sheet piling is being installed. Did the old material get pulled out?

    • @rjgoniea
      @rjgoniea 2 года назад +1

      I've been watching and I'm fairly certain that old sheet pile got pulled out. I don't think it was buried very deep. I'd estimate they've taken at least a third, maybe half of the height off the remaining berm before starting to drive the new sheet piling so if the old stuff hadn't been removed it would be plainly visible on the live cam.

      @@charlierumsfeld6626 I shared this in a reply to someone else, but my guess is that they needed to lower the top to make sure they could get the sheet pile down to the desired depth. It's also possible that core samples taken from the berm showed some weakness. Perhaps those top layers weren't as compacted as they'd like to see them.

      That would depend on the weather. If they started to fill it in the spring, the rains we get could have it filled in a lot less time than if they started filling it this time of year.

      Jordan,
      First off, where will they be putting the plug down by the temporary bridge or up a little farther? I was wondering when the breach is plugged and the water is redirected over the dam, will they be able to go in and smooth out, fill in the falls? Those falls look pretty deep and eroded in some areas. Do they have to bring the ground level up a little bit there?

    • @rjgoniea
      @rjgoniea 2 года назад +2

      @@kats8839 I'm not sure that filling those areas in would be necessary unless they're directly under the footprint of the new berm. The parts that are upstream will be under water and shouldn't be a hazard to anything. If anything it would be a place where fish would hang out because some like to hang out and hide in holes.

    We are aware of the politics and permits involved. But would love to have our lakes back with in the next year
    We the taxpayers at no fault of our own caused this…
    So please stay ahead of schedule and let’s look forward to filling the lake’s
