| Sewer Rehab project sign |
I went to Great Falls (Maryland side) this morning and the person at the gate alerted me to a sewer rehab project going on this week. Apparently, there is a sanitary sewer line connecting Maryland, Virginia, and D.C. and this week D.C. Water will be drilling some rock cores from a few places just below the Washington Aqueduct dam to help understand the area geology and plan for a replacement of the sewer.
Three of the four places they are drilling are only really visible from the Virginia side, so besides the helicopters, don't expect to see anything aside from an occasional helicopter.
There is more information at DC Water.

| Signs about the sewer rehab project |
The sidewalk leading up to Great Falls Tavern has several signs with information about the project.

| Off to work |
While I was there, this helicoptor delivered two people (Look below the helicopter, by the tree branch) to work on the project.

| Icy towpath |
The canal towpath at Great Falls was icy. Be careful and wear sturdy shoes.
