Went to CC Pond job and cranked up pumps at 6:10 am to pump down water in box culvert so we could set new box culvert and form 2' collar around box. Went back to home depot and got 8 firmboards and 150' of silt fence and 200' of orange tee protection fence. Set 2 sections of box culvert and helped get form work started. Rained hard for 5 mins and flooded everything out. Tyied to pump down and rain came again. Shut off pumps and called it a day. Checked job and covered up TSI hoe top where rain would not get in cab.


Set up both 2" pumps and 6" pumps to remove 3' of water from around structure due to rains last night. Cut rebar, drilled and doweled both existing box culverts. Set both new box culverts and began forming connection collars. Rain began at 12 and flooded structure. Set up pumps and pumped until 3:30.
pond contractor continued excavation. Concrete contractor drilled, doweled and began forming tie-ins but was rained out.

Called Larry to find someone to cut structure walls to work with the existing curb and pavement grades. One can't cut them until Tuesday and another Friday. Also gave him the elevations of conflict for pricing information. Shot pond bottom elevations and called Beau to let him know that south end still needs 5' to grade and flow through 2.5 for grades. He wants me to contact contractor excavating pond for a plan to recover that material excavated area at existing BFP to be relocated. Excavation revealed a menagerie of piping that no one can explain yet. Stay tuned for further information.

Problems: rain
