They are still <br /> working on restoring the roads the weather has not been with us because of the drying time. <br /> They may have to use rock but the suppliers are running out and they need the medium <br /> crushed concrete.

It <br /> drains 60 acres and 1 inch of rain is 1 foot of water. <br /> County crews assisted people and ramps were built over the pipes for emergency access. On <br /> Amick Acres east there were 2 culverts were that were blocked so they removed a piece of <br /> plywood so it could drain. <br /> They are still pumping water out of the lakes and he ask them to not turn off the pumps so they <br /> could get some survey information. <br /> Amick Acres was nervous when the water was high and they were running dewatering pumps <br /> and the encouraged them to not direct them to the neighbor's property so they tried to run it to <br /> the ditch or back into the lakes. On Amick Acres East and west the some of the sandbags were <br /> under water. <br /> Steve stated he heard about collapsed basements and septic systems some basements has 14 <br /> to 20 inches of water and some 4 feet of water.
