Frequently asked questions
Westmoreland benches were mined. How does that show up in a June wet yard?
Fill and old workings can lower a surface enough to make a bowl that no flood map drew. June's 4.86 inches then has a place to sit that the original grade did not. Till perching does the rest on lots that never subsided. This is a coal-bench problem, not a creek overtopping.
A new low spot appeared in the yard and now it ponds. What made it?
Mine-era ground settling. Old workings and fill let a section of yard drop into a shallow trough, so June rain collects where it never used to. The grading did not change; the ground beneath it did.
Why would a 1957 Greensburg wall start seeping decades later without a creek in the yard?
Plateau frost works the joints all winter on rubble that never had an exterior break. June rain then has openings that did not exist when the wall was new. A dry-looking street on the bench is not a dry footing if the till is perched and the joints have opened.
