Frequently asked questions
Salt killed Mentor Marsh. Why does that dead forest wet a ranch in Mentor Acres?
Because a dead marsh is a bowl, not a sponge. Salt from the old works killed the trees; the peat slumped; the preserve still sits lower than the ranches. July rain that a living swamp would have used now ponds at the edge of the lots.
The lake is a mile north. Is Erie still the water table?
On this plain, yes. The Grand River and the ditches all have to reach Erie, and when the lake is high they cannot. A basement here is in the same pool even if you cannot see water. A basement here is in the same pool even if you cannot see water from the lot.
A 1974 ranch with tile — why would the basement still wet?
Tile needs somewhere to go. If the outlet is a ditch that ends in a slumped marsh, July rain just fills the tile from the wrong end. The system can be intact and still useless when the marsh has no fall.
