The remaining 150' AquaDam® is being carried out through the flooded fields to close off the section between the two previously installed AquaDams®. Only an excavator could maneuver in these flooded fields. The two excavators we used were an essential part of this project.

This is the last remaining section. It closed the gap between the two previously installed AquaDams®. The entire closure consisted of three AquaDams® in total: one 8' x 100' and one 8' x 200' (both white in color), and a black dam which was 8' x 150'. This shows the connection with the two black fill tubes.

These AquaDams® were immediately backed up with fill material once the closure was made.
