This is the Blackmud Creek Erosion Protection Site.

The cost of installing the wooden retaining wall, which can be seen on the left, is $850,000 Cdn.

My guess is that this design is inadequate and is doomed to failure.

Sad to see it eroded so badly. Great shot of the river scene. v

They should put up a little statue of St. Jude, the patron saint of lost causes. Interesting photo.

I think you’re right, a few good rains and it will be gone. That’s a lot of money!

Totally agree with your comments David., one would think so called experts could come up with something more substantial than this flimsy project. David.

Sad to hear it's probably doomed to fail, not only because of the cost but more importantly, its inability to stop the erosion.

Interesting documentary shot. This looks like a waste of money. Why even try to prevent erosion here?

I believe you are right. A few days of heavy rain looks like it would overwhelmed.
