Frequently asked questions
Iroquois looking harmless from the bridge. How does it shut a Kankakee cellar in June?
It closes the leftover capacity. The Kankakee can still fall until the Iroquois arrives. Together they pin drained-marsh fill. Aroma Park sees one river; the mill flats see two. The smaller fork is the one that turns a rise into a still pool under the floor.
The marsh tiles are still in the ground. Does a mill cellar take the Iroquois with a clear sky?
It can. The tiles still connect to the river. A cellar on that terrace can wet from below because the marsh hydrology was never removed, only covered. The confluence keeps the supply steady, so the tiles are a fair-weather problem as much as a storm problem.
1956 confluence basement. Why would a sound roof still leave a June stain on the Iroquois wall?
The roof is not the table. This stock sits on drained marsh the confluence already holds up, and June can put five inches into two rivers that do not drop. Looking up finds shingles. Looking at the tiles finds the wall, which is where this stock actually fails.
