The text is a transcript of a video where a person is working on fixing a leaking pond dam. They have to remove the old concrete pipe and replace it with a new corrugated pipe. They also have to pour concrete around the pipe and compact the dirt around it. They encounter some challenges such as breaking the concrete, shattering a window, and sliding down the rocks. They finish the job by grading, seeding, and strawing the area.
Here are the key facts extracted from the text:
1. The concrete pipe was laid backwards with the bells facing downhill.
2. The pipe was leaking due to improper installation and poor concrete work.
3. The concrete around the pipe was not fully compacted, leading to water seepage.
4. The pipe was set on blocks, but the concrete did not fully cover the pipe.
5. The water pressure from the pond caused the concrete to crack and leak.
6. The pipe was ripped out and replaced with a new one.
7. The new pipe was installed with a correct cradle and compacted clay around it.
8. The trench was dug to grade, and the pipe was set in place.
9. Concrete was poured around the pipe, and the area was backfilled and compacted.
10. The riser was grouted, and the area was backfilled and tracked in.
11. The trash rack was reinstalled, and the area was seeded and strawed.
12. The pond was six feet low, but it should fill up after the repairs.
13. The repairs were completed, and the area was ready for the pond to fill back up.
