On Dec. 14, 2005, a pump failed at Ameren UE's Taum Sauk upper reservoir, sending more than a billion gallons of water rushing into Johnson's Shut-Ins State Park.
That report isn’t true. A pump didn’t fail. Several sensors used to report when the reservoir was full, failed over a period of time. The company management didn’t want to pay for the labor to replace those $10 sensors. When the last sensor failed, water was pumped into the upper reservoir until it started overflowing. That eroded the side of the reservoir until it collapsed and it drained.

Johnson’s shut-ins renovations has made it one of the nicest and most updated parks. Highly recommend visiting if you get the chance.

But it was poor programming on pump. They should have shut off after so many hours when the high level was not reached. Simple programming
interesting engineering question
Isnt that the reason for those things orange signs that say "if warning siren sounds immediately leave area go up hill 200 steps"?
Johnson Shut-Ins has NOT been restored. This is a lie.
What are you talking about? It’s like the nicest state park in Missouri now.
