It would be nice but having been in similar situations I can tell you
management simply looks at the here and now. They'll likely be long gone
and dead when the next flood hits so most of them will play the odds sadly.
Leave it for the next guy or the guy after him maybe even 5 guys from now
(assuming radio still exists according to some). I wish you luck and wish I
could have been there to help bag the facility but if nothing else know that
we wish you luck and you and everyone there is in our thoughts and prayers.

If these shots don't convince a manager or owner the wisdom in building
everything above the 250-500 year flood plain of a river or creek, nothing
will.
Mark..show some shots of the tower bases at sites already surrounded by
water. The closeness of the water to the pier or bottom of the tower
would be MOST convincing...presuming you can get out there.
And now I hear of another crest coming end of next week just as high, if
not higher than Sunday's crest.
