photos and video footage from storms on august 12 amp 18, 2010. the high amount of impervious surfaces like roads and parking lots in the highly developed anacostia region leads to excessive runoff during even small rain events. large rain events like these produce even more drastic effects, resulting in high water, flooding, excessive streambank erosion, loss of trees and the dumping of tons of trash and pollutants directly into the river. what you are seeing is evidence of a "sick river" because this is not normal.
