Unfortunately, the water depth was so great that it eventually pulled the AquaDam® off of the bank and caused it to fail. It was decided that the best course of action was to completely remove, re-roll, and then re-install the AquaDam®.

Once pulled up on the sidewalk, the AquaDam® is blown up with air to make sure that the inside tubes are still in good condition.

Once deflated, the AquaDam® is re-rolled with the sides folded in on the wooden core that it originally came on. Folding in the sides makes the unit much more compact.

The contracting foreman wanted to try to rip the collection screen out without dewatering. They hooked a chain around it and started pulling, but were unsuccessful. This is the depth we were expanding when we arrived. This man found that he could not stand in the soft mud near the drain without sinking out of sight.
