Amsterdam again, last time they claimed the valves were installed backwards. Wonder what it is this time.

Losing 50 gal a minute and can't find the leak ??  Not like it is a clean water leak.. Hint, hint.....  $h-- stinks and runs down hill.  Hide some Pokemon characters in the city and someone will find the leak...

it's easy  to  find  fault  but the  simply fact is  thanks  to the  current  government  the interstructor  of the  country has  never been this  bad . I  can't blame  a  town  for a  sewer leak  when they are doing  everything they can to keep  roads drivable not  tring to  make  this a political debate  but  the  fact is  ...it is ......

 :clapping: :rotflol:

I  do have a  political  question  and  there are a lot  or retired  fisherman here .....under the Obama  administration 4 of the 8  years   social security  did  not get a cost of  living  raise ,we were  told that  the  cost of  living hadn't  gone  up ...if this is  true  then  why is it  so important  to  raise the  min  wage????  i'm not  being a  wise guy  it is  my  honest question to both partys  I  don't  understand the  logic here

Pretty standard I guess.  You should see what the sewage plants are allowed to dump in the river when the water level is high :o Not a lot of respect for our local water ways unfortunately.

For reference, the current leak is approximately 0.007% of the river flow.
