Monday's rain was wonderful for the land, except where the vegetation and even the absorbent topsoil has been removed and silt flows directly to our Northwest Arkansas streams and reduces the quality of downstream water in the watersheds of both the White River and Illinois River. See the preceding post for south Fayetteville resident Don Hoodenpyle's Tuesday morning chore resulting from the failure of the Aspen Ridge developers to manage their stormwater according to federal and state regulations.
