HOW
What happens here
After the large rubber tire has been pulled through the entire length of the culvert, visually inspect both ends of the pipe to confirm that the blockage has been completely cleared. Water should now be flowing freely and unimpeded through the culvert. Carefully remove the tire and heavy-duty chain from the culvert area. Use the heavy machinery or manual tools, such as shovels or rakes, to clear any dislodged debris or mud that has accumulated at the culvert's outlets or inlets, ensuring a clean and unobstructed pathway for water flow. This final cleanup helps prevent immediate re-clogging.
Goal: Ensure the culvert is fully functional and clean the work area.
