Run off per day is not the issue, the highest tides (appox 6:30- 8 AM the last few days) cause the water coming down river to slow down and build up on top of the water backed up by the highest of the high tides. Low tides don't cause the water flow over the embankments.

One fact has been overlooked and never pointed out:
At spring tide periods (now) the daily HIGH tides are higher than normal, but the daily LOW tides are also LOWER!
At neap tide periods (next week) the daily HIGH tides are lower, but the LOW tides are Higher!
It always evens out, the actual run - off per day might not differ all that much. A very important fact.
This also applies to the seasonal high waters... Although it's not much use now, the yearly low tides of April are 6 months away.

You are an idiot if you don't think billionarie corporate CEO types don't LOVE a country where factory workers will line up for jobs that pay less than US$1/hour, with ZERO benefits, and should you be using some dangerous chemicals, the costs to ensure nobody raise a stink here is less than you pay for a golf lesson back home.
