DRAiNWATER TRENCH

in order to keep water from accumulating inside the basement of a structure, crews have dug this trench, the lowest point on the site, to give water a place to go. it remains mostly damp most of the year, only filling part-way with water if it rains. a drainage pipe sits a short distance up the bank, large enough for multiple dogs to hide in. the pipe goes back 100 feet, where it opens into a larger room with several off-shooting pipes, but all of those tunnels are blocked by heavy-duty metal grates. given the water that is easily dug for, and the possibility of rats or human garbage, six canines could be supported here.
