Summary

The first surveyed bank ended here, but the divining rod said that a very strong throughflow from the forest missed being picked up. The new work indicates where "repairs" or so called "fine tuning" has been done. There is fresh water in the trench, but further down in the valley floor it caused a salt scald. The Whittington Interceptor system has corrected this section of soil degradation.

This image is part of the WISALTS (Whittington Interceptor Sustainable Agriculture Land Treatment Society Incorporated) Collection.
