A call to a news team might change their mind but I would go with the pluming problem.

If you put it on a credit card you can dispute the charges and will likely win. On stuff like this I always put it on a card. Hope it all turns out for you, its bs that they won't give your money back.

Just saw an update that Dunlap will completely drain. That's a lot of big fish headed somewhere or they get trapped in low spots and die. Hopefully they will follow the current and will end up in McQueeney. Which has no public ramp!

What a mess! The GBRA has some major explaining to do.  Maybe some changes need to be made in the GBRA!  Side Note: The dam on Lake Wood has been broken for years! I was told that the GBRA had no money to fix it and just left it as is.

I guess people who live there better hope GBRA fixes the dam, its GBRAs money paying for the fix after all. Or should the homeowners pay the 10 million for a new dam?

Why replace the dam? Has there been a study on repairing the existing dams? Dunlap dam is 91 years old. Will the proper repairs make it last another 91 years?

Maybe it would be less expensive to just do away with the dam all together and connect Dunlap and McQueeny. On another note, I would hope TP&W would come up with a plan to prepare to save the fish that would get stranded, it may actually become an environmental issue if their is a large number of fish.
