Frequently asked questions
Provo is five miles south and uses this BYU gauge. Why isn't a canyon the story?
Provo sits on Wasatch fans. This city sits on the Geneva shore of Utah Lake. Same May inches, different hole: a 1989 cellar here fails because the lake and mill fill hold the table, not because snowmelt came out of a canyon.
Seventeen inches of rain. Why is groundwater a concern at all?
Because the lake sets the level, not the rain. A May table under mill-fill cellars follows the lake rather than the gauge, and steel-mill fill weeps on a fair day with almost no local rainfall. The water is delivered by the shore, not the sky.
The Riverbottoms is a neighborhood name. Is that scenery or the table?
The table. Delta clay under that ground wets 1989 basements from below, so the name describes what is beneath the houses rather than the view from them. It was accurate before it was a subdivision.
