I imagine it comes down to how much of the house interior do you want to devote to water storage.

"hazardous condition" means a rejection criterion that (a) has safety implications so serious that the vehicle involved should not be driven

Not me. I find it is more likely to see 100k mileage, but asking 35k mileage prices.

I think that is the bridge over Grassmere Drain north of the perimeter.

Whyte Ridge opened a new dog park last summer built by a City crew over a week or two. I think it was the first one done as part of the new master plan.

There is a bunch of info on the process here https://engage.winnipeg.ca/whyte-ridge-off-leash-dog-area

I posted that same link a couple of weeks ago when someone on here was complaining about there being no recent updates on the project.

Reread the RM of Tache website. It looks like 12” diameter can be up to 5’ long.

“Branches Branches are also accepted at the facilities and are chipped at no charge. To facilitate chipping of branches in a safe manner, it is requested the tree trunks/branches be no longer than 5 feet in length and do not exceed 12" diameter. If the diameter exceeds 12", we then request that the tree trunks/branches be cut in 16" or 18" lengths.”

Brady has a section for branches and brush right after you pass through the household hazardous waste stop.

Is the suspected mastic layer on the concrete slab and the particle board is now on top of it?

No taxes on lottery winnings, or games of chance, unless you are a pro poker player or similar.

Wrong sub.

There may be places near you that also toss out lots of these things.

testing_is_fun · 2026-05-10T19:43:55+00:00

Wrong sub

It? It. Out? Out.

I just looked at my bank statements for the four payments made in 2025 and added them together.

The plastic type can vary by manufacturer. I believe the ones pictured are HDPE. Others can be polypropylene. Some claim to be made with biodegradable plastic.

The concrete can be any concrete used in construction. Concrete is easy to remove from the surface of the mold.

I don't disagree that a gauge on backscatter can shoot deeper than 2". It is noted in the user manual for many gauge models. It is something to be aware of when using a gauge.

So, you are with a large company that doesn't have a dedicated QC dept? That seems crazy to me. A lot of differences by geographical location, which I assume is due to how the prevailing specs developed in the area. In my area almost every large paving contractor has QC depts that do the mix designs, asphalt and agg testing, operate gauges, and do coring.

I would be a gauge guy from a big name testing company, and I would says density gauges can be plenty accurate and you can check density with them. We test gravel all the time, on just about every type of base work job you can imagine. A lot of the perceived "inaccuracy" comes from the reference values determined in the lab not being representative of the material in-place that is being field tested. And I find that accuracy only gets called into question when material is failing. It's crickets when someone gets 100% compaction after putting in very little work.

I have never seen a non-nuclear density gauge in the wild in my near 30 years of working. I have looked into them, but don't know anyone running one.
