California's Lake Oroville Main Spillway Severely Damaged/Eroded. Oroville Dam's Recently Reconstructed Main Spillway Fundamentally Flawed

You know two years ago it over topped and threatened the people below. OP did a video on that dam and the local news used it. Don Pedro is a scary dam for sure.

the gold is the only thing holding the dam together, they will take one nugget too many and kaplunk

The gold is no issue at all…

the earthen dam did NOT overtop 2 years ago.. the emergency spillway did.. Lets get that one STRAIGHT. The emergency spillway.. which was just the hillside abutment to the dam and some concrete on top while it does form a “side” of the reservoir .. never was the CONSTRUCTED DAM.

I'm sorry but that's not correct. It is not the earthfill portion of the dam, but it is absolutely a vital part of the dam as constructed. It holds back the same water. The dam overtopped.

Not to mention it is likely WEAKER than the earthfill portion and made of the same materials. I reckon the manmade portion might withstand overtopping better than the ES did.

the word DAM refers the earth filled dam between the natural abutments…. which are NOT earth filled.. and the earth filled dam is also at great risk of washing out.. more than the natural rocked abutments. the earth fill portion is not the same as the natural rock abutments. I did look at a great deal of the construction details over 2 years ago. You stand corrected,

I do have some purposeful background in dirt filled dams and terminology around them.

DATA BUMP

these don’t necessarily represent motion at all… do some study up.

..IT WAS THIS THE OTHER DAY THAT MADE ME GO...IT IS A FUCKIN BUSTED UP SHIT BAG OF A DAMMED DAM....AND SPOILED WAY 1.1. BILLION DOLLUH BONER1...IT WILL FAIL..ALL OF IT!

Okay, why are you always almost illegible with the caps lock?



why?

Scott Cahill has said that the word dam refers to all the parts inc gates and spillways. It is all the dam. So you are wrong, technically.

For the sake of discussion of O dam, it does help to differentiate. But the emwrgency spillway had it collapsed would have been a dam failure.

I feel like an idiot that I didnt realize this before but it makes perfect sense. I guess the whole planet quivers like a bell with big quakes. Thanks for posting this.

Uh, yes it does. Seismic waves is a motion that travels across a medium.

Whatever the seismo felt the dam also felt it... period. That's why it is there. To measure ground movement.

You're too nutters to act knowledgeable about this stuff. You're not bad, often nice, but also bat shit crazy at times.

I have never been bat shit crazy… because I comprehend something you do not.. do not make me crazy. You do not comprehend vibration changing around the long distance from a big quakes… It is not the same as the ground quaking. What you label seismic waves is not SHAKING. They are not motion in your use of the word motion. It is more subtle and I don’t know if there is an accurate English word. Shall I label you bat shit crazy because of your own lack on knowledge?

Everything is always “in motion”.. but the term “in motion “ does not necessarily convey accuracy. Your brain is always in “motion” because of the atoms transfering energy but it does NOT quake from that “motion”… energy transfer is not necessarily quaking.

Did you know photons do not MOVE here directly from the sun particles? They transfer along what might be labeled in English as Sine Waves perhaps would be the closest English mathematics word…

Man has much to learn still and to create new words where necessary.

I'm sticking with Nonentity.....


I too think you are batshit crazy.

again.. your lack of knowing on something does not make me bat shit crazy… it does say something about YOUR attitude though in staking such a claim. I would suggest some serious introspection of self. for you cannot grow your spirit without it. This is a situation to grow ABOUT in the understanding of matter and energy. That is why I gave the information about the photons from the sun which do not travel as particles… but rather shift the energy particle to particle on the travel to earth. hf:

NonEntity has seriously mislabeled itself in the user name unless its a bot. And the statements made do not imply bothood. :Cat huge:

This Oroville Dam Doom Is OFFICIALLY OFF for now.

Go to bed dam doomtards, you've had a rough couple of years.

Maybe y'all can get your Dam Doom Freak on next year.

Sorry to offend but you are crazy. Somethings you posted made that obvious. It's not something that makes you a bad person, I think you have a very nice side.

Though you shouldn't act like you understand things when it's clear you don't understand.

This isn't the first time you were wrong. I try to help you by explaining where you're wrong, only to find your denial with a cautiously placed insult.

Seismic waves are waves of motion. Not electric or magnetic. I can teach you a lot, but you need to be more receptive.

It's ok to be wrong at times, that's how we learn and grow.


Anyways, if the crazy label bothers you I'm sure many here can show you why we think that.

Again because you do not approve that is your issue.. not mine.. I doesn’t NOT bother me personally ifi you have such views… I know what its like on this planet… the massive ignorance…

Moving along now because there is no point.. You cannot teach me to believe that which runs contrary to the what is… I do not memorize earth stuff which is not cosmic truth.

I have made the trip to Paradise and am many many millions of years old… and I am not ignorant of energy and magnetics… I carry open access to my higher knowledge and I have attempted to explain how that works.. in terms of “incarnation”…

and when I used the word sine wave understand I do have a reasonable amount of math studied ON this world… I was a math major at one time amongst other things I studied in college. Quite a few other subjects. I found fault with a lot of what I was forced to reproduce to pass a course. I failed an ethics course once because because I could not reproduce the bullshit that was taught by the robotoid teacher.

This right here is why I and many others believe you are nutters.

Just saying. I give you benefit of doubt with your religious views. But I won't accept your lack of scientific understanding to spread false concepts.


That's pretty much it.

I'm an engineer scientist type and currently I study micro motion, vibrations. A lot of my time is researching vibrations in the Earth. You could learn a LOT from me.


Just don't feed people BS when it comes to science. Religion I don't criticize.

Be well

Heres an interesting one.... an officer assigned to work the @CA_DWR #OrovilleDam security detail, was notified of a suspicious vehicle within the facility boundary fencline, but in a very precarious location

Within a few minutes, it was discovered the car is owned by an employee of a subcontractor, who was checking the fence line, while driving a vehicle not really suited for driving anywhere off pavement, let alone in this location..


………….

Yikes

they measure energy transfer. So you send me a simple childs film as your proof….

A and a thank you to all who are keeping this thread alive.

Hey little pixie. The thread you found has one of the best pieces on this dam I ever heard or read. Paul Preston interview with Hodges. On my phone so cant link to that interview but it's on page 1. It explains so much.

The FEMA camp is getting more fence panels and razor wire today.

Getting ready for the suggested public access August first.

The dam has operated for over 50 years without the need for razor wire, but apparently, it is now required.

The stupid chain link fence near the end of the ES weir and the debris trapped on it was the cause of the undercutting erosion on that day back in 2017. Well documented on video.

Funny, that was my first thought the first day I saw that razor wire!

Interesting timing last night as there was a show on the cable about giant dams causing earthquakes. Are they trying to warn people? They did not even mention Oroville but al I could think is, Oroville is fuccckkkeedd!

I think it was a show called The Secrets of the Earth.
