nathan Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 I think it is when they did the controlled flood a few monthes ago. It did not have the desired effected on the fish, in fact they killed more that way than if they had left it alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRocket1647545505 Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 they damn it up, with a damn (big pile of rocks). Then route the water around where the damn is to be made. Then build the real damn. and remove the pile of rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verse Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 I took the Dam tour at Hoover Dam. I ate a dam footlong hotdog there and you get a sticker that said "I ate a Dam Dog" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evan9381 Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 yeah, they tunnel out both sides of the mountain, block off where the damn will be, then once its built, they move the temporary damn. the history channel one on some damn was like a 3 episode deal. it was actually pretty cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
