March 21 - Thunderstorm this morning

There was a thunderstorm this morning.  The water has not disappeared in the last 15 days.  FIFTEEN DAYS!  It hasn't even come close.  I haven't seen the 25 year mark since the beginning of March.  Here are the pictures I took today.  As time allows I will continue to take daily pictures.  I called Fairfax County Storm Water Management today to see if they can come back out and clear it.  Last time, it may have been too deep for them to service.  It's not much better today, but they have to do something.

  Again I have 3 goals for starting this blog.

1) Fairfax County should repair, replace the storm dam/drain so that water will drain within 3 days.
2) Environmental - Fairfax County should take care of the watershed and make it a place where tree's can survive.  I would like to see the fallen trees cleared and replaced with trees that can handle saturation.  I would be happy for some type of cleanup to occur in the watershed.
3) Mosquitoes - Fairfax County should treat this area for Mosquitoes until the dam/drain can be repaired or replaced.  The mosquito infestation in this area is horrendous and is a huge health threat to all residents of Centreville.
