Just another upper management finger pointer.

Good question, it was an engineering problem. The footing for the first box was only 3 feet deep. El Nino heavy rain under minded the whole project and lifted the whole box up and runway. The first engineers really screwed up!

The new engineers are going to make the footing for the new box 8 feet deep. I think that is still not deep enough.
