In this update we take a look at the progress on the Smallwood Dam. A lot of engineering work is currently going on at Smallwood Dam but physically there has not been much change. The Smallwood Dam is located on what used to be Smallwood Lake. Smallwood Lake is located in Mid Michigan. This footage was filmed on April 23, 2022. This was after the collapse of the Edenville Dam on May 19, 2020. There was much flooding that occurred around the dam at the same time that the Edenville Dam collapsed on May 19, 2020. Wixom Lake was rapidly rising due to heavy rainfall and the Edenville dam could not hold back the water. The earthen embankment of the dam failed sending water rushing towards Sanford Village. The aftermath and damage left behind is devastating. Make sure you subscribe to catch the follow up videos I will be filming.

Thanks for all yo do, I would give money if I could but I have a strict budget. How ever, I shared it to my FB page.

[@Jibber-JabberJerry]

Thanks for the update! Have a happy and safe 4th of July Jordan!!🎇🎇🧨🎆

[@theobserver9565]

When did you film this?

[@rjgoniea]

it says in the description it was filmed April 23rd. Jordan usually puts that info in the video description.

[@timothystevenhoward]

here we use a lot of A4 class riprap, which is medium sized. smaller D50 value. A5 and A6 can be large, hundreds of pounds per piece!

[@timwilliams8260]

Love what you're doing but I would like to see things happening in the same month instead of like 2 or 3 months ago old news

[@cmoreson4281]

Hi Jordan any updates on that steam shovel that they salvaged on the lake bottom. Thanks

[@JordanMowbray]

I will be filming an update on the progress on Wednesday! Stay tuned!

[@Rorschach.]

Another excellent update, Jordan. Thank you. I particularly enjoy the inclusion of new technical updates. And the turtles!

[@ConcertLD]

Any chance of restoring the power houses to help produce electricity?

[@simonh317]

I asked this a while back, sadly no - the cost vs returns (especially compared to wind) are too much, along with adding many years to the rebuild.

[@ConcertLD]

@@simonh317 ur right it is sad! So much of the country once depended upon these small damns and power plants.

[@stevevogrig2762]

Are they going to fill it up again

[@tomtheplummer7322]

Hello Youngman. I would like to give you a tour of Colorado dams. You and your bride might enjoy them. I will take you to Lake Granby. They pump water up hill.

[@simonh317]

Jordan - i have a question. Was the hydroplant in use during both damn collapse - and if not, as an emergency release, could the doors have been opened to allow more flow?

[@charlierumsfeld6626]

I like the technical information. The graphics however are not viewable for me. I would have to use a 72" screen to see the drawings.

[@gth042]

An excellent update, Jordan. Those flow shots were also pretty thereputic. Thank you! Of course, Your explainations make more sense :D. No idea on the painted turtles, but I suspect it's people being s#1tty -- probably some meme thing or new NFT. ...You do sound a bit slower today. I hope wanting "people to stay educated" is all that's been dragging on you. You're going out of your way to do a really cool thing at a busy time of life. Please don't worry about us plebes. :)

[@jodyrewa688]

I finally saw the turtle at the end! 🤗 And yes that is quite a “ledge.” My husband always comments on the steep ditches on the east side of the state

[@bernadetteherkner3251]

Thank you Jordan, good job again

[@richardhamby457]

Thanks!
