FloodPlain by Andiamos restaurant at Hollingsworth Road

Macomb Public Works personnel commented on Big Beaver Creek at the 14 mile Road Bridge over stormdrain by Hollingsworth

Drain along Hollingsworth Road showing the size of Bridge and the size of the Drain. Will Consumers Energy drill underneath all this to pull new Natural Gas Piping - as they have along the rest of 14 Mile by Art Vans and PODS ????

Seems to be a FUNDING issue $ - No one wants to use ""their"" resources on the local, county or state level - attack the problem, get it done and over with - before winter. Macomb calls its EGLE's problem, EGLE claims it's financially broke without an ability to tackle the project. https://goo.gl/maps/1YfAqDj1Rg9MDtER7

We have 3 INCHES of rain coming our way --- yet the drains are still choked with woody debris -- who will act - take the bull by the horns - increase capacity - increase flow - make property valuable once again - instead of a flood plain ???

Forecast this week in September , 2021 - feel free to verify with whatever source you choose -

HIGH detail of the area - flow - tributary - Red Run and WWTP connections

Yes, this is our 14 miles SOMN project.
I believe the crossing that you are referring to is
a Hydraulic Directional Drill (HDD) that had a
setback from the creek of roughly 300ft.
The setback dig was covered under our SESC permit with the county,
however due to the depth of the HDD an EGLE permit was not required.
These tend to be quite deep ( 75-100ft)
and do not disturb the bed and bank of the creek.
If you have any additional questions
or would like a more detailed response
please do not hesitate to reach out.
This particular crossing is complete.

So Warren had an InfraStructure Project almost no one new about ?
Nice to know the media plays a great role in Warren UPGRADES
I'll continue to pursue the flow, capacity, efficiency of the open channel drain system.
Was this all on a County level or did Local officials get involved ?
After all , it was public, via the Consumers Energy internet site.
Scroll down towards the bottom of their webpage

Bridge Area at -83.036, 42.537 degrees is around 609 ft above sea level
Some might call it a flood plain , spill over the banks wet area
Whatever the term, there are few Buildings in the area because of it.
Perhaps with better, improved drainage, property values would go UP, hmmmm ???

"" We have also observed these trees and can assure you that it was not done by the Consumers Energy 14 Miles pipeline project. In the attached photos there is a chronological depiction of the trees still standing on 6/12/21. The work done by Consumers Energy was completed on 6/9/21. The work entailed a Horizontal Directional Drill (HDD) where the pipe is drilled under the watercourse at a depth of 70 feet or more and does not disturb the drain.""
""On 6/26/21 Consumers Energy observed the same tree debris that you have photos of and it was identified that the responsible party for the cut trees in response to the storm damage is the Warren RV Storage Facility located behind your photos, Consumers Energy confirmed with a employee there named Jonathan.""
""The Consumers Energy project construction manager, Steve Miller called Paul Fisette of the Macomb County Drain Commission on Monday 6/28/21 to notify the County of our discovery of the trees felled into Big Beaver Drain. Mr. Fisette stated that the stream is not a county drain at that location and it was outside of his jurisdiction. You are welcome to follow up with Mr. Fisette at your convenience. ""

More pressure - More Force - The Macomb Daily ran the story as well - What will it take to get ACTION before the snow and frost occur ? - https://www.macombdaily.com/2021/10/13/natural-gas-pipeline-work-near-completion-on-14-mile-road-in-warren/

Finally December 17th, it's been addressed and looking better . Willing to close issue .
