Add to My Profile | More VideosCottondale Creek NO EXCUSE. This happened after only a .54 inch rain. I followed the mud from the construction sites on Buttermilk Road some 17 miles to the Black Warrior River. There it caused a stain all the way across the river as far downstream as I could see. Poor planning and lack of enforcement are the causes.Lifetime Alabama resident. I have traveled a great deal but always come home to Bama.
