I've sung in the Cathedral Notre Dame de Paris, so I'm kind of a big deal.

The safety issue is just an excuse to spend millions rather than a $100k to remove a low head dam. Whitewater courses keep the river impounded unnaturally but that is what people want. It does remove the "drowning machine" effect but at much higher cost than other options. It is the most expensive alternative.
Big high dams reservoir are expensive to remove especially dealing with and managing all of the sediment built up behind them. Low head dam removal is easy peasy but people like to cite the cost of removing dams that are nothing like the small river low head dams as a reason.
Wisconsin DNR was partnering with us to remove dams on the Baraboo River but it started to not make sense with the cost of federal studies so they just removed them themselves, think it was less than $100K each for multiple dams.
Minnesota DNR has done rock fill rapids below some low head dams that removes the drowning hazard and provides fish passage. Nice compromise when there is too much local opposition to full removal.
Bottom line, using the dam safety issue as an excuse to spend millions is just a smoke screen to justify the expense of the most expensive option on the table.

watching the parents trying to get the baby swallows to fly is fascinating. Though I question the parents' desire to do so at 9pm.
Happy? We're all standing now. Bunch of jackasses, standing in a circle.
