Vacuum man lose the Jean's get water prove trousers, why sit in wet jeans??? Employers need to supply them . Your doing a great job . Stay dry friend .
I agree....vac truck would've taken a 1/3 of the time and could've shot the lines with a jet...my bet is the manhole isn't even clean either.....wasteful
lmao was just going to say nowadays they use vacuum trucks but hes also pulling out quite large solid rocks, something serious going on there... not to mention he broke the manhole ring pulling out at 5:00
I've pulled out 20 + lbs rocks with a vac-con unit ....that debris doesn't look like anything it can't handle....and i've actually lifted a smooth 24" mh cover off the ground @10" up to prove the suction capabilities of my vac.
NYC Department of Housing Preservation & Development sent this today. Dear Community Member, We’re just two days away from the engagement series Kick Off Meeting scheduled for Thursday, September 10th at 6pm. In the meantime, we encourage you to please sign on to the engagement website and start giving your feedback using the interactive feedback map to submit comments and engage with your neighbors! Here is my question submitted at the engagement website r628676.hpd.nyc.gov/c/l?u=AD86E02&e=10F0803&c=997C4&t=0&l=&email=KlLK0bgaLJxu5lJ%2BwikS5nnlkRjLUbPe&seq=1 Please will you fix the lawn erosion due to four inches of asphalt raising the road bed over the 1910 GRAFTON WEST VA red brick pavers against the historic district bluestone, formerly six inch high, curbs on east side of Saint Pauls Ave from Occident Ave to Stone Street. Equipment is used in other cities to slope the asphalt down to the right level. See this situation viewed by 93,000 viewers, with the curb overflow at 9:27 into ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0TIusBIyZD0.html
Why are the cones still on the back of the lorry? They should be positioned at a reasonable distance behind the lorry to warn road users. If the City officials had any sense, they would clear all the gullies and storm sewers during the dry months of the year so that they would work properly when the wet weather arrives.
Thank you for your comment and safety suggestions. Being at the bottom of Trossach Road's half mile hill, on the right side of the viewing, that storm sewer catch basin fills up with silt and such every time it rains. That is how the block got its nickname "Mud Lane" that remains even since being paved in the late 1880's. You can view some of that hilly topography in ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cuE4lrmZehU.html The Lorry is in a "No parking zone" on a one way street with vehicles parked on that side of the street. Stone Street on the left side of the viewing is a private dead end street for only two property owners. The truck operator stands on that safest side of the truck. So, it is a lot safer that it appears. The most dangerous problem is that drivers go 50 mph in that 25 mph posted zone.
What is he doin' at 6:54, where he's goin' back and forth with the control? Is there some kind auger or is it just dead weight that's pullin' the bucket deeper into the drain?
Keith Brettell looks to me like he's just chomping threw it and mixing it with the water. Which makes it less dense then the weight of it lets it sink further.
why aren't you wearing rain gear, NYC has to provide you with it under NYC state law, it is part of your unions bargaining agreement, what are your job descriptions about working alone in a storm situation,I'd be bitching out my supervisor for not providing me with proper gear
Maybe they don't have the most sought-after features in a waterproof rain jacket of breathability: the ability for perspiration and other moisture to exit the jacket without outside water coming in.
Later Middle ages, earlier sewers were buried in earth. Later on, gas mains were also installed in the sewers, until leaks (and the resulting explosions) changed that procedure! As in any society, there were doubters.
That basin gets plenty of emptying by NYC. But, being at the bottom of Trossach Road's half mile hill, on the right side of the viewing, that storm sewer catch basin fills up with silt and such every time it rains.
