The July 17 tunnel collapse occurred in a 2,200-foot-long tunnel along the main Gering/Ft. Laramie canal south of the town of Fort Laramie, Wyoming. The tunnel collapse caused water in the canal to back up and breach the canal bank, flooding the immediate vicinity. More details at: https://cropwatch.unl.edu/2019/update-canal-meeting
