    Two burst in 2020 near me, it was incredibly tragic!! While there were no fatalities, it's still going to be another year before the repairs to them are completed! Just the economic loss in the immediate vicinity of those dams to tourism is catastrophic! Then add the loss of individual properties as people's homes and belongings were swept away!!! There are currently over 1,000 individual law suits pending!!!
