Sinkhole Incidents On the Rise
"Stretch zones primarily experience sinking ground, as the support in the rock strata is stretched thin. Thus, buildings implode and gas and water mains break." ZetaTalk
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What happens to rock layers under a diagonal pull, or being pulled apart? As can be seen during recent years, this has resulted in derailing trains, sinkholes suddenly appearing, gas and water main breaks, torn roadways and separating bridges. Despite the effect on man, crawling about on the surface of what they assume to be terra firma, these changes are superficial. When the pulling starts, weak points break and thereafter the plumbing and roadways hold, giving the impression that the pulling has stopped, but this is misleading. The North American continent is giving evidence that its rock layers are separating from each other, and sliding sideways in a diagonal, thus exposing portions of these layers to vent into the air above. If rock is being stressed, then where are the earthquake predictors giving evidence of this, the frantic animals, the static on the radio, the earthquake swarms? Rock in the stretch zone, pulling apart rather than compressing, does not emit the particles flows that animals and radios sense, nor register on instruments are tension and release quakes.

"We have repeatedly stated that the Earth changes will not diminish, but will increase going into the pole shift.
This is not a lineal matter, as the closer Planet X comes to Earth, an inevitable path, the more the torque effect and the polar wobble where the N Pole of Earth is pushed away violently on a daily basis, occur. The wobble will become more pronounced, more violent. The plates are tugged back West of the Atlantic, pulled forward East of the Atlantic, during the daily rotation of the Earth. The North American continent is allowed to roll East during rotation while the S Pole is pulled West, creating the diagonal pull likely to trigger the New Madrid fault line into an adjustment, and soon. The N Pole is pushed away and allowed to bounce back, daily, as the Earth rotates, a wobble that puts stress on all fault lines when the plates are suddenly in motion, and suddenly stopped!
"As there is no other explanation for the effect on the stretch zone, lacking any earthquakes to blame, and as these stretch zone accidents will continue to emerge, and with ferocity, this is a certain clue to those on the fence, that the influence of Planet X is the cause. Or is it Global Warming?"
ZetaTalk Chat Q&A for April 13, 2013
"Sinkholes almost invariably form in areas subject to karst limestone cavern formation. Underground water flows eat away the limestone leaving vast caverns and caves, which often give scant indication above ground that a cavern lies below. Karst limestone rock formations have been mapped and are known, however, but since one never knows just where a cavern might have formed, this provides little help in predicting just where a sinkhole might form. Sinkholes open up when the rock is fractured due to stress from being in the stretch zone, from the bending of a plate, or due to torsion."

Large Sinkhole Opens in New York City
Discovered August 12
videoNEW YORK (CBS 2) — People are stopping, staring and taking pictures of a massive sinkhole that opened in the middle of 82nd Street between Columbus Avenue and Central Park West, but frustrated residents are asking what city officials intend to do to prevent future collapses.
“It’s a recurring thing that happens every year,” resident Kirk Williamson told CBS 2′s Elise Finch.
Williamson’s window faces the hole that he says he first noticed on Friday. Since then, it has extended to 10 feet in circumference and 20 feet deep.
Just a few yards away is what’s left of smaller sinkhole that formed last year and the hole left from a water main break just two weeks ago.
“There’s a lot of work going on in here and it’s taxpayer-paid for. If they don’t really find a solution it will keep happening,” Williamson said.
“There’s been no one here investigating it. So that’s a little bit troubling. This is a very family-oriented block,” said resident Rochelle Hestnas.
Ed Coleman, with the City’s Department of Environmental Protection, said his office was just recently notified of the latest sinkhole but an investigation is underway. Crews are using ultrasound scanners and underground cameras, among other tools, to get to the bottom of the problem.
“So far we have not found any leaks on the water mains. Additionally we inspect the sewers, so we open all the sewer manhole covers, look down to see if they’re functioning properly and they were. Any other problems I’m sure we’ll detect them now and correct them,” he said.
An independent contractor has also been called in to do another investigation. Once the problem is finally identified, crews will remove the broken concrete and asphalt from the sinkhole and fill it in.
Both investigations into what caused the sinkhole could be wrapped up as early as Thursday.

Large Sinkhole Opens in Newaygo, Michigan
Discovered August 16
Eleven feet long, six feet wide and seven to eight feet deep
Michigan Department of Transportation crews are working to repair a sinkhole that opened near the corner of M-37 and Water Street in Newaygo this afternoon.
MDOT spokesman John Richard said crews expect to have at least one lane open in each direction by 10 p.m. Tuesday. The southbound M-37 lanes are open while work continues, and the northbound traffic is following a two-block-long detour, he said.
Richard said the sinkhole is about 11 feet long, six feet wide and seven to eight feet deep. No one was injured when it opened this afternoon, he said.
"Local business owners saw it start to open" and called the Newaygo County Road Commission, which called MDOT, he said.
Heavy rains Saturday had damaged a storm sewer pipe under the road, causing the ground underneath to erode and collapse, Richard said.
Newaygo City Manager Jon Schneider said he hadn't seen any problems with the detour Tuesday afternoon.
"Fortunately there's some side streets close by to get around it," he said. "It looks like the traffic is flowing just fine."

Massive Sinkhole in Mandan (Bismark, North Dakota)
Discovered early August 2011
videoThe city of Mandan says crews are working as fast as they can to repair a sinkhole on the strip.
A sewer pipe collapsed along the 3300 block of Memorial Highway at the beginning of August and high levels of ground water and shifting earth have caused a large sink hole around it. The city is unsure whether the pipe collapsed on its own or if it was due to the high water table.
Workers are still pumping water from the site but hope to have the project complete by the end of the week.

Sinkhole Swallows Car in Sioux City, Iowa
Discovered August 13
SIOUX CITY, IA - A sinkhole swallows a car on Sioux City's east side.
A 12-inch underground water main broke in the 1900 block of South Alice in Morningside Saturday night. City crews were able to stop the leak two hours later, but not before the water eroded the soil underneath the street. When a car drove over that area a little later, the street collapsed, taking the car with it.
"Typically we don't have street failure to this extent, but then again, we don't have a lot of 12-inch water main breaks either, and just because of the size of the water main, that's why we had such significant street failure," says Brian Fahrendholz, Sioux City Field Services Manager.
Crews are still investigating the incident, but water service to the area has been restored.

“Heat pops pipes nationwide” headlines mainstream media articles plastered all over the internet today, August 15, 2011. Wrong! These are caused by stretching related to the nearby presence of Planet X.
When underground pipes and water mains burst in the winter, the Establishment blames the cold or aging infrastructure. When pipes and water mains burst in the summer, now the common man is supposed to believe heat and high water useage are the causes. But pipe and water main breaks were not occurring in massive numbers before Planet X arrived in the inner solar system and such breaks were infrequent and readily explained before 2003.
There is no truth to these recent Establishment Lies that attempt to explain how pipes and water mains (now) burst in the summer too!
From ZetaTalk Newsletter No. 150:
Water Main Breaks
Like the proverbial canary in the coal mine, water main breaks are one of the first indicators of earth movement. Buried in the ground, and often brittle from decades of use, they are put under stress when the ground shifts. Other signs of ground movement featured in this newsletter recently are collapsing bridges, unstable dams, sinking or rising land, buildings falling down, imploding buildings and booms. A rash of water main breaks within the past month, with multiple breaks in a single location, show that something other than old pipes and coincidence is afoot. Many of these breaks are accompanied by other signs of ground movement, such as booms or the smell of methane gas. In San Diego several water main breaks happened in close proximity to each other, one after the other. Days later a large main broke in LA, trapping a fire engine in the hole, while another main broke in Studio City. Note that California is showing other signs of stress, in that San Francisco had an odd unexplained methane gas odor just weeks before the San Diego water main breaks. http://www.zetatalk.com/newsletr/issue150.htm
ZetaTalk: Nancy will tell you that she has received emails from many southern Texas residents as to how unstable the ground has become. Bridges have been separating, roadways opening up, and the ground sinking. All the land between New England and Mexico is being pulled at a diagonal, and it is not just the fault lines that are feeling stress. All will participate when the New Madrid Fault makes a serious adjustment. http://www.zetatalk.com/index/zeta426.htm

Massive Sinkhole in Staten Island, New York
Discovered August 15
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- A large sinkhole has shut down traffic on Narrows Road North at Richmond Road following yesterday's massive rainfall.
A sewer line in a National Grid excavation hole broke, according to a spokesman for the Department of Environmental Protection. Workers at the scene said it appeared that rain run-off from the Staten Island Expressway put enough stress on the area to cause the break.
Traffic in the area of the Concord intersection -- already plagued by major backups because of the Staten Island Expressway ramp construction project -- will likely be much worse than normal today during until crews can make emergency repairs.
The city is in the process of making repairs and traffic is being rerouted. There is no timetable yet for when the road will reopen.
Narrow Road North is shut down between Targee Street and Richmond Road while two lanes of Richmond Road are closed at Narrows Road North as repairs are made.

Sinkhole Swallows Car in Upper Marlboro, Maryland
Discovered August 14
UPPER MARLBORO, Md. (WUSA) -- A large water main break in Upper Marlboro has created a sinkhole large enough to swallow a car.
Kira Calm Lewis, spokeswoman for WSSC says a 30-inch main broke in the 6900 block of South Osbourne Road around 10:45 Sunday night. Lewis says the rushing water weakened the road, where a sinkhole developed. A woman traveling on South Osbourne Road drove into the sinkhole but Lewis says she was not injured. A tow truck was called in to remove the car.
Right now WSSC crews are on the scene working to shut down water to the area so they can begin their repair work. At this point there is no estimate on how long the work may take.
All lanes of South Osbourne Road are closed between Carroll Way and Brentwood Drive
According to Lewis customers in the area may be experiencing outages or low water pressure.

Huge Sinkhole Closes East Burdick Expressway - Minot, North Dakota
Discovered August 12This huge sinkhole near the entrance to Roosevelt Park Zoo opened early Friday afternoon and nearly swallowed a large trailer carrying flood debris. The hole is 15 to 20 feet long, 8 to 10 feet wide and at least 8 feet deep. Minot Public Works Director Alan Walter said the sinkhole was caused by a sewer collapse. Sinkholes have been common throughout the city as high groundwater has caused a large amount of subsurface erosion. East Burdick Expressway will be closed from the west end of the Burdick viaduct to Eighth Avenue Southeast until further notice. Detours will be from Fifth Street Southeast to Valley Street and from Valley Street to Eighth Avenue Southeast.

Sinkhole Continues to Grow Without Explanation - Utica, New York
Discovered July 2011
UTICA — Utica resident Ralph Stevens wrote to “Public Eye” regarding a large sinkhole on Elm Street near his home.“I keep watching this thing grow bigger and bigger,” Stevens said.
The details
The hole, near 1114 Elm St., was between 1- and 1½-feet deep and several inches wide. Trash collected in it and it looked as though the asphalt was crumbling.
Stevens said he noticed the hole about five weeks ago.
The future
Workers from Utica’s Engineering Department investigated the sinkhole after they were alerted to the situation by “Public Eye,” said Utica Senior Engineer Deborah Day.
The hole was filled about two weeks ago, she said. The sewer line was checked last week to see if the problem could be identified.
“It appears it is not a problem with the city sanitary sewer main,” Day said.
The problem may stem from an old pavement cut from utility repairs, which has since settled, Day said.
The cause of the sinkhole still is unknown, but Day assured the Engineering Department will continue to keep an eye on it to ensure it does not re-open.

Downtown Vancouver Sinkhole a Mystery - Vancouver BC, Canada
Discovered August 12th
The City of Vancouver says it has no explanation for a large hole which developed early Friday at the busy intersection of Seymour and Robson Streets.
“We don’t know what caused it,” said city spokeswoman Wendy Stewart. “The ground was dry. There was no water and no suggestion it was from a broken pipe.”
She said dry, summer weather is not the type of conditions in which sinkholes usually form.
“Sometimes dirt will erode and a pothole will be created,” she said. “Sinkholes are more common when winter turns to spring and water comes down from the hills.”
A gap in the pavement appeared overnight and grew to the size of a trench about one metre wide, four metres long and up to a metre deep.
“There was no danger to the public,” said Stewart.
The crews were putting the finishing touches on repairs Friday afternoon and reopening the lanes to traffic.
Stewart said a micro-camera will be used next week to investigate where all the dirt went.
