Good for you on the praise for this job well done. I have worked construction as a laborer on concrete work, it's no east task. It's a back breaking, thankless task that no one ever thinks about after it's done. These reporters criticizing this project have no clue about the difficulties encountered on such an endeavor.

[julieblueyes]

I stopped watching and reading main stream media, a few years back. Thank you for sharing the truth!!

Nothing is final until its reported on Blancolirio!

You are the only one who reports real information. You deserve a medal for honesty in journalism.

Spillway time lapse is amazing... and the achievement on this massive project is absolutely outstanding.
Kudos Juan for all your terrific and detailed reporting over time. You deserve an award.:)

Kudos to you too Juan, with out you those of us here on the East coast wouldn't have any idea all this had happened in Northern Cali. Than You for you accurate and concise reporting on this immense project

[holdmybeer]

Independent journalism at it's finest!

Thanks Juan. Always enjoy your updates. Been a while since I watched one of your updates. Truly amazing the work that's been done at the Oroville dam. Wow! Glad they got that hot mess fixed up!

A job well done for You too! My husband worked on the spillway from 1966 to its completion. It been great to follow this project. It has been so nice to hear from someone who is accurate and fair . My hats off to you!

Thanks Juan for keeping us all up to date on the Oroville Project. It was amazing the work that was done to complete such a large project in such a short time.

[gerardacronin]

I stumbled on your channel just after the initial event and have been hooked ever since. Amazing project and superb reporting. Thank you!

[wendya]

Thank you, Juan, for all of your hard work. Appreciated your coverage.

Oooh 'the media', I was just waiting for someone to ask "WHAT ABOUT THE GREEN SPOT"

Some of that well earned congratulations should go to you Juan, absolutely amazing reporting. I live over 5000 miles away from the spillway but have been fascinated by every one of your videos.

I just hope that this isn't the actual last video from you on the project. I'd love to see the odd follow up over the next year or two, the first water down the spillway and the the fully graded hillside at least.

All your time and effort is greatly appreciated!

Juan, thanks for your great reporting. All along you were the ONE trusted source.
I just flew from Chicago to San Diego in daylight. Out the window of the plane I witnessed for myself just how dry the South West is. Dried up lake beds, rivers and low reservoirs. I hope you guys get tons of rain but only after the concrete is well set. You need it. Lake Mead would make for an interesting story if you're looking for something to do :-).

[RM.....]

Thank you very much Juan for all your hard work and time spent reporting on this.

[darylmorse]

Juan, thank you for this great video series. It's really impressive the way you stepped in to fill the void left by the incredibly vacuous mainstream media.

[abscomm]

Fabulous Job Juan, I hope the mainstream press will have at least a few reporters that will try to emulate the amazing job you have done here.

Thanks, Mr Brown, for all the updates on the rebuilding of the Oroville Dam. Very professional with all the technical jargon. Very interesting. Also enjoyed your flight reports and family stuff too. Stay safe and blessed. 🙂
