Frequently asked questions
East St. Louis is in the Bottom. Is that the same water?
Opposite. The Bottom is the floodplain. Belleville is the bluff and the mines. May rain here either runs off the edge or sits in a subsided trough. Treating a bluff cellar as American Bottom flooding misses the coal and the cut.
This block used to shed May rain. What changed under an Illinois Basin street?
A coal void closed. Belleville's bluff is mined; a street that carried water toward the American Bottom in 2000 can sit as a dish now. May's 5.25 inches then ponds in a trough the original grade never had. The shingles did not fail. The lot is lower than the plat.
Is a house on the bluff edge a different job from one inland over a mine?
Yes. The edge is runoff onto the next lot and a buried downhill wall. Inland is a trough over a void. One is grade; the other is subsidence. They are not one repair. One is grade; the other is subsidence. They are not one repair.
