Placing The Temporary Casing - a photo on Flickriver

            After hoisting and placing this tempory casing, the crane operator will use the auger to hammer it deep into the borehole, then the team will use the yellow hoses to fill the hole with drilling mud stored in the orange tank across the clearing.  When the temporary casing is removed, water in the drilling mud will seep into the soil, leaving the mud to dry and keep the borehole from collapsing. I did not know any of this until a worker climbed up the embankment to his car. I asked him about the work, and he politely explained it to me. A great place to photograph a team of men and machines working together.
