When considering creation of a monument, an organization must consider not only the monetary and time expenses, but more primarily the symbolic value and environment of such a significant object. The environment surrounding a memorial is largely comprised of the physical location and human community that the memorial will be around.

    Mudboils In Tully Valley

    • 1049 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Discussion: Mudboils cause structural failures since they are suspensions of gravel, clay, silt and fine sand creating an unstable surface. Since the beginning of persistent mudboil activity in the 1970’s, natural landscapes and engineered features have become subject to land-subsidence as mudoils continually deteriorate the areas in their path (Tresohlavy 2003, pp. 27). Petroleum pipeline rerouting, telephone cable burials, and the collapse of bridges have demonstrated the true capabilities of mudboil persistence and destruction (Kappel & McPherson, 1998). These impacts have created a motive for truly solving the problems of mudboils within the Tully Valley. Portions of underground pipeline have become exposed due to the land subsidence issues…
