"The erosion-resistant quartzite will be used as rip-rap along 1,150 feet of the east bank of the river, which has been rapidly eroding in the past decade due to persistently high water levels caused by above-normal precipitation and tiling systems added to farm fields to improve drainage." This is an exert from todays paper-Mankato Free Press-(Mn.) The problem is the river is now within 15 ft. of one city well supplying a third of the city water. 10 yrs. ago there was a 75 ft.distance. This is a 2.5 million dollar project to save that well. My thoughts are it would be cheaper to dig a new well, close off old well and let nature take its course and consume the old well. Maybe not.

This is tractor related as they are blaming this on tiling systems in our farm fields which I tend to agree with.
