It’s been over a week since mid-Michigan was hit with catastrophic flooding that washed away and damaged homes, wiped out an entire lake and displaced residents. On Tuesday, May 19, the Edenville Dam collapsed and shortly after, water flooded over the top of the Sanford Dam following heavy rains. The dams, both based in Midland County, sent rushing water down the Tittabawassee and Saginaw rivers. Thousands of Michiganders are still picking up the pieces from the flood’s aftermath. /// State of Water is a program of the Michigan-based non-profit organization Title Track, and is powered by the Clean Water Campaign for Michigan. The podcast is made possible through a generous contribution from the Esperance Foundation. /// EPISODE 16 / Peter Sinclair interviewed by Seth Bernard / Produced, edited and mixed by Dan Rickabus / Narrators - Alex Smith, Ben Darcie, Dan Rickabus, Jenny Jones, Rachel Marco-Havens / Music - Mike Savina, Seth Bernard & Dan Rickabus
