Re: Cleaning Silt Out Of Sioux River 1997


There is a contractor near me that is pretty big. He does all types or work including excavating, paving, bridge box culverts, site work, etc.. He did a demo job in town and the local paper did a story on it with pics. Now it seems that he does every single demo job around and the paper is there every time.
