Short answer: Day seven of the Arabella dam project took the crew to Tony’s property for continued earthmoving work, making steady progress despite it being a Sunday. Dam construction schedules often run through weekends to take advantage of good conditions and complete projects within client timelines. The day’s work contributed further to the growing dam wall, moving the project closer to completion.
