Agrivillers, I am in Maui right now, it's 29 degrees, trying to convince Hawaiians to eat lentils with Canaryseed pancakes, it's a tough sell but... 😆 But really a Hawaiin told me yesterday was the first day since all this summer that the trade winds came back. She complained that it was just too hot until the trade winds came in. And we get a dump of snow at home, hope there is a coorelation. Now if the grain prices go up, she's all good.

Read the water security act. That agency has given themselves more power than god when it comes to drainage. Consolidation of potholes or sloughs on your own property is still deemed illegal if it affects the spill level of water bodies to those down stream. Even drainage ditches or canals that have been in place for decades are being revisited and in some cases have now been ordered to be blocked off. All enforceable with some ridiculous levels of fines.

Highwayman. I understand what you're saying regarding the spill point. I also bought land In 2004 that has unapproved drainage ditches on it...I never built them.
A brand new C&D is getting up and running here. Even the local board has scary power....mixed with attitide, ego and power tripping can make for a dangerous mix. Oddly enough some people who can barely manage their own affairs and make questionable choices want to take on these roles and manage the projects. A lot of people are feeling blindsided by the guy who singlehandedly spearheaded this thing.....if most knew then what they know today I doubt he would have got the required number of signatures to get this C&D established!
Another scary thought...C&Ds who create works rubber stamped by the Water Security Agency and legally challenged by someone downstream who can prove damage are left to defend themselves!

My opinion is that WSA needs an army of engineers to accomplish province wide permits. Once heard they have a 10 year target. Out here the Quill Lakes are driving the panic.
Any way after 35 years on local board, I am not running. Enjoy the fun days ahead, all you young guys.
