Any New News On River Country?

What part of Rockland? Moved 10 years ago to Cincy area from New City.

NORTH ROCKLAND

I took these last week. I connected four pictures together and smoothed the edges for better viewing. The scale is very close to correct buy not exact. The thing I hadn't seen in other pictures were the blue containers at the right of the picture. These looked like 10-12 of those blue miniature swimming pools. I'm guessing they were for draining the river country pool but why so far from it. Also why not just pump water out to the lake. Any ideas?

And that picture alone:

Interesting!

...why not just pump water out to the lake.

If that water has been sitting stagnant all these years there are bound to be some very interesting "organisms" living in there - at the very least some nasty algae, hence the pretty green color.

Those are pretty typical sediment basins, they will most likely pump water into them and let the junk settle out before draining the water out of them.

So with those in place maybe there is more to the removal of RC after all?

I have used a system like that they are a filtering system and yeah you hit the nail on the head, the jist is the bad stuff is left in the bottom and the water is transfered from one to the next until it is safe or meets standards.

I went past there recently, but I didn't see anything going on. And it was a BBQ night, so they had ropes up at the entrance for checking people in. although it would be tempting to jump the fence out by the ticket booth...

We're here at the Fort now, but leaving tomorrow . We went investigating around RC, but there's nothing going on. Its pretty quiet around the area, but there are green fences up. Sorry there's not more to report. I did ask a Cast Member, but she didn't know anything.
