Frequently asked questions
Water runs in along the rock face and the neighbor's downspout is fine. What then?
The cut itself. Highland rock carries seepage along its face into the first bench, so the wall wets from the hillside rather than from anything anyone uphill is doing. That is geology, not a drainage dispute.
Indian Point is right up the road. Does the plant change how a Peekskill cellar takes July?
The plant is a neighbor, not the hydrology. The water is Annsville, the tide, and the Highland cut. A wet basement on the flats is the creek mouth holding July's 4.73 inches. Following the plant will explain a different risk and miss the tide that is actually in the wall.
The house is on the first bench, not the flats. Why would Annsville still matter?
The bench fails from the cut and from roofs that terminate at the lot line. Annsville still sets where that water is heading. Being off the flats means you are not in the tide; it does not mean the hillside is dry. July loads the cut first and the mouth second.
