Frequently asked questions
The river is lined in concrete. Why is there still groundwater under the slab?
The basin remembers. This was artesian ground long before the channel was lined, and the table under these lots still stands high in February. Lining the river changed the surface, not what sits beneath the pad.
Twelve inches a year is a desert. Why would a slab take water in February?
Because almost the whole year arrives in a few winter cells, and the covering has been baking since April. Gaps that were not there in November take the first storm. A dry climate does not stay sealed; it opens and then soaks all at once.
The river is in a concrete box. Why would it still matter?
The box took the river's job away from the fan. Streets and the old swamp now have to do that job with undersized drains. When February exceeds them, the water sits on the same lots the river used to claim, with no channel left on the lot itself.
