Blasting at the lake

My former boss sent this to me.

[font "Arial"][#000080][size 2]This is blasting at the bottom of Lake Mead where The Italians are building the new intake tunnel. They will blast this area then dig down and prep for the Intake Structure. They are currently stopped in the tunnel due to water infiltration that flooded the tunnel heading. 600 feet deep.[/size][/#000080][/font] [font "Arial"][#000080][size 2] [/size][/#000080][/font] [font "Arial"][#000080][size 2]Contri is building the concrete Intake Structure on a barge at the shore of Lake Mead. The Italians will then tow the barge and structure to the location you see in the video and sink the structure to the bottom hole left from blasting. They will then drill into the structure with a TBM.[/size][/#000080][/font]
