Was watching a DVRed episode of Trucks tonight and they were at a plating plant in Nashville and they said the total cost of the flood there last year was over 2BILLION yeah with a B!

How much is the dam repair cost going to be?

2BILLION! Just in one flood that if the dam would have been at 100% would have possibly not happened or at least as bad. ...just something to think about when anyone complains about the repair cost. Just one event was over 2 billion in just Nashville.

I looked it up and found they were not just throwing a number around.

The flood damage to private property in Nashville is quickly approaching $2 billion.
This year how much did the combination of Lake Cumberland, Laurel, and Dale save people downstream? ;):cool:

Not to mention LIVES saved.
