AquaDam® Removal
Rogue River, Grants Pass, OR (2003)

The excavator (top left-hand side) has control of the 200' long AquaDam. It needed to go slow, allowing the water inside the AquaDam® to drain out. Actually, we are pulling the skin of the AquaDam® off of the water molecules.

Here we are rolling up the AquaDams® using our re-rolling brackets, ratchets, and cheater bar. The excavator has already pulled out the AquaDam® so this process of re-rolling can take place. The flat part of the excavator bucket will eventually be needed to finish rolling this large AquaDam®.

In tight places we would pull the AquaDam® out 50 feet, re-roll it, move it out again 50 feet, roll it up, and so on. One person on each side of the re-rolling beam can usually roll up a used AquaDam®, provided they have the right support equipment (brackets, ratchets, cheater bar).
