Zooming out a bit and finding area names such as [Brosewere Bay] or [Five Towns] also didn't give me any explanation for the lines. <br /><br />After Hans posted his comment I wanted to see if I could find what he found. I searched for a phrase from his comment and found the pdf he was referncing (it would have been too easy to follow the link.) <br />I then did a search for [Suffolk County mosquito control] but the maps I saw didn't quite match where you posted your image. I believe that image is located in Nassau County. Searched for [Nassau county mosquito control] and that got me to http://www.nassaucountyny.gov/agencies/dpw/MosquitoControl.html<br />Reading that I saw the word "ditching". Doing a search for [ditching mosquito control] gives you plenty of information.<br /><br />Looking back I was thinking too big in the way of canals and channels as well as throwing out searches for dredging and tidal controls. With the direction I was going I don't think I would have found it without Hans' posting.krossbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07877826327758153784noreply@blogger.com
