Good point. As I understand it, they are constatntly overflowing during rain storms. They attribute much of this to flow being reduced by debris and living trees. Some of these plots are even going to be piped and then filled. We'll see how it goes.
Yeah, that'll keep the stream banks really secure and stable.

Very nice truck indeed Mark... Does your operation own that bad boy or was it a rental/contract? My company does a lot of crane removals but we always contract a local crane operator, usually with a 40 or 70 ton but we do have a HIAB on two of our trucks: very usefull. The only drawback to the HIAB is its reach... it could never have performed that job of yours. Having a lift arm on your truck opens a world of possibilities in tight situations.
As for the new stream conditions... the photo speaks volumes. Ecologial suicide.

Yeah, we own it.
As for the stream, I don't really understand the engineer's ideas here? I know that two properties were eroding under their lawn space and was undetectable unless you looked over their fence from the stream side. That is scary to think of a kid playing and then being sucked through the ground. But, I really wasn't there for the bid process and can't really say why they did things like this?

Not really Dave. In three of the four spots, the slope was too steep for machines (tractors...) and the wires were in the way of setting a conventional crane up. But, I could sneak under them with our boom.

Mark, That's actually an antenna for the truck.
Mike, it's a Heila boom. It's an Italian comnpany that makes booms for marine use, truck mount and even platform lifts. I think they make booms up to 650 mTons.
