Gregg Hobgood October 20, 2009	GREAT job on taking care of that guardrail issue.


Gregg Hobgood October 08, 2009	Why is the guardrail just north of Little Mill Rd (right before the sharp left turn heading toward the Dam)on Buford Dam rd so overgrown?... its grown WELL over the guardrail itself causing drivers to steer alot closer to traffic coming the opposite direction. It's a DANGEROUS situtation thats easily fixed. Eagerly waiting a reply.


Rampey August 25, 2009	Why is the bridge closed? I went to go fishing and could not get across. No amenities on this side of the river if you know what I mean......... Is there a site posting this information? Water release, bridge closed, code red etc.


Ed Mazurek May 09, 2009	Why is the pedestrian bridge at the base of the dam closed? I went out for a run today and couldn't get across the river. What's going on???????????
