Transcript of Ohop Valley Restoration Project: 2014 Summary
“We surveyed down the Valley, which was flooded, and some.mes we would get into beaver dams and in water up to our armpits. • …….AFer living in the Ohop Valley for a year, I told my wife that I supposed we had made a mistake as I couldn’t see how we could get rid of the floods, as every .me we had a liKle rain, the valley would be under water. She said she was sorry if we had to leave and asked if it wasn’t possible to turn the water of the main creek some other way.
• ….That made it possible for us to farm in the Valley, and we have recently blasted a new channel, straightening the creek through the Valley where it was crooked, so that now a flood is an excep.on in place of a rul.”
