I worked for a company on a job in New York harbor surveying a 9ft diameter sewage tunnel that runs from Newark under Bayonne to New York Harbor (there is a vent near the little lighthouse you pass on the Staten Island Ferry). There was concern that some of the dredging would lighten the load over the tunnel and the tunnel would pop out of the ground.
